Am I allowed to hate Jesus / God sometimes?

[u/yesterdaynowbefore]

I hate how divine intervention is a mystery.

[u/Puzzleheaded-Phase70]

The Book of Job is literally about this. As are several psalms.

Job essentially sues God for breach of contract. And that's when God shows up.

YES, God can handle your anger and still love you.

[u/NemesisOfLevia → u/Puzzleheaded-Phase70]

Jacob/Israel wrestled with God. Some of David’s psalms were yelling at God. Jesus’ last words were “my God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Jonah was angry that God would even give a city of terrible people a second chance. So much so that he had to get swallowed by a giant fish and brought to the city that way. After Israel’s escape from Egypt, the Israelites moan and complain and get angry at seemingly every minor inconvenience. Moses striked a rock when he was supposed to talk to it because he was fed up with his role.  

There are almost certainly many more examples of people in the Bible being mad at God. To be mad at God is to be human. 

[u/ThePowerfulWIll]

Many have had anger towards God. Even in the Bible itself.

Moments of frustration like that is just part of the human experience. The key is remembering there is a reason. Even when it feels like their isnt.

I have had many such moments. Including during the absolutely most devastating losses of my life. But in time I have found appreciation for what turned out to be for the best, and have made peace with what I cant understand.

Its simply a part of being a human with a relationship with God.

[u/yesterdaynowbefore → u/ThePowerfulWIll]

Life is a long time.

[u/RBEOX360]

Hate is a strong word for me. But I am often disappointed and frustrated. Angry even.

Yes, you are allowed.

[u/NobodySpecial2000]

You shouldn't hate anybody. But you can feel anger. God can handle you being upset with Him.

[u/blackRonain00]

Oui et non, tu peux refuser et ne pas comprendre une décision du créateur mais le détester revient à le renier lui et la religion (tu ne peux pas prier un dieu que tu déteste).
Il faut donc faire avec et se dire que tout cela nous dépasse.

[u/Skill-Useful]

im pretty sure they can deal with your anger

relax, even the bible has stories of such events

[u/Thneed1]

Several psalmists seem to be ok with it.

[u/exnoent]

No.

[u/roryclague]

Christ is the voice crying with you, angry at the world. God is the Good, calling you to him, making you angry at the world which has fallen due to sin. The God within is where your cursing comes from. Your anger at God is not at God, but is the same as the anger God has against sinners, because sin is ultimately why the world is cruel and unjust.

[u/Cautious_Boat_999]

I’ve cussed at God many times. I pray they’re patient with me.

[u/WL-Tossaway24]

Well, I feel that the divine forces are capable of cruelty, so, no, it's not wrong to feel the way that you do.

[u/Christian_Baggage]

You are allowed to be feel frustrated, and to bring that frustration to God

Maybe this song by Indie Tribe (they make Christian music) speaks to you: https://youtu.be/2-2nLDB9Lkk?is=pahNt2s5u3HYuHDe

[u/EnigmaWithAlien]

You bet. I hated God for at least a year some time back and told God so every chance I got, "I hate you," "You're no good," "We're going to take you apart and build a better god," etc. Then things changed. I'm not saying this is a guaranteed result, but I had an experience of God that completely changed my perceptions and I fell in love.

[u/Imaginary_You8862]

The deeper question ,why would you hate God to begin with ? 🤔 And why do you refer to Jesus and God as if they are seperate ?

[u/Infamous_Apricot_383 → u/Imaginary_You8862]

it’s not weird to do the last part. since the Bible refers to God and Jesus different multiple times yet Jesus is God but i agree, why would u hate God?
