Problem: The Bible tells us that God both loves people and hates people. Whether we like it or not the Scriptures teach that God hates those who love violence and love evil. God is too holy to approve of those who love what is opposite to God’s character and nature. But on the other hand, generically speaking, God loves the whole world (John 3:16). Also, he lets the sun shine on the good and the bad. He let’s the rain fall upon all people. So, in this context, he loves all (Matthew 5:43-48).

Problem: The psalmist writes, “Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, for His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!” (Ps. 2:12). What does this mean, and is this passage translated correctly?

Problem: David writes, “O how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day” (Ps. 119:97), and elsewhere, he writes, “His delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night” (Ps. 1:2). However, Paul states that we are no longer under law (Rom. 6:14; 7:6). Is the law good for our spiritual growth or bad?

Problem: Job says, “As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last He will take His stand on the earth. 26 Even after my skin is destroyed, yet from my flesh I shall see God” (Job 19:25-26).

Problem: The Scriptures teach that all people will be raised bodily from the tomb (cf. Dan. 12:2; 1 Cor. 15:22; Rev. 20:4–6). Indeed, Jesus said that one day “all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth” (John 5:28–29). However, Job seems to say just the opposite, when he wrote: “he who goes down to the grave does not come up” (cf. also Job 14:12; Isa. 26:14; Amos 8:14).

Problem: This passage makes reference to the seven-headed, Ugaritic, mythological creature Leviathan (cf. 42:1). Does the Bible purport a belief in mythological creatures such as the Leviathan?

Problem: Critical scholars argue that “Satan” is merely a prosecuting attorney that brings human sins to the divine council for the purpose of prosecuting them before God. In other words, Satan is not God’s adversary; he is merely one of God’s agents who prosecutes people for their sins—much like the angel of the Lord is an agent of God’s judgment (Ex. 12:23; Ps. 78:49). Is this the case?

Problem: Job 1:6 states that the sons of God came to present themselves to God, and “Satan also came among them.” However, this implies that Satan has access to the throne of God when elsewhere it is declared that he has been banished from God’s presence (Rev. 12:7–12).
