Ephesians 5:1

Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children

-what is the example? Is it vengeance, jealousy, anger, hate? He has all those traits, He has said He is a jealous God (Deuteronomy 4:24 ) anger too (Psalm 7:2) Vengeance (Hebrews 10:30) and hates (Romans 9:13) .

Nope. The only thing of these is hate, to hate evil. Other than that, it is all about Love, mercy, and giving of oneself. Saving, caring, bearing with us, and sticking with that. Hm, so example to follow is servanthood, out of caring not out of only command. The command is step one, then learning to love the command. How that would save so much among people if it were so. The example of the Most High then, is totally opposite of what we want it to be.
