I often hear people say God is loving and kind in the New Testament, but he was a brutal disciplinarian in Old Testament.  Today we are going to discuss weather that is true or just another misconception.

Key Points:

1. Negative experiences tend to be more memorable than positive one. Therefore it is easy to overlook the good and focus on traumatic events.
2. We can read Genesis 1 - 7 in one sitting. However, Noah's flood occured 1656 years after Genesis 1. A lot of time passed before judgment.
3. The New Testament is about a third of the Bible, but only documents less than 100 years. The Old Testament documents over 4,000 years of events.

Additional Reading: Matthew 1:17, Genesis 5
