People say that God is cruel. This is not true. If a person examine the history of Noah. There are prove of the global flood. When a person sees a rainbow, the rainbow is a promise that there will not be a second global flood.
A person can give their heart to the Lord, the Lord can clean the human heart. God will accept a person when the human being want to follow God's way.
We need to have a loving fear of the Lord because we all deserve God's judgement. But he offer mercy to mankind. The cross of Jesus fulfills the Old Testament sacrifice system. The animal sacrifice is a credit card because the sacrifice forgives one sin but the cross of Jesus can forgive every sinful activity.
I am thankful for the cross of Jesus. I don't have to sacrifice animals. The Messiah forgive my sinful activity so there is forgiveness.
Genesis 8:20-21
20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it. 21 The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done.
