Tyson Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I was brought up to think of God as a scary, vengeful and wrathful God, and he was not a friendly person to go to when you had a problem. I don't wan't my kids to go through that and I want them to think of God as love. Does anyone else know what I'm talking about? Did you grow up thinking of God the same way?

Majore12 Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I was taught that he was judgemental and that you could go to hell, but that he also forgave your sins. I was given mixed messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sporty Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I guess all the kids who grew up in Christian households all grew up with that misconception. I also used to be confused as to how my 'heavenly Father' could condemn me to an eternity of suffering for making a few mistakes. It didn't make sense to me at all at the time.
