Mr. Whiskers thinks you speak of a this God and that God. Paul seems to speak of "that" God when talking about blood sacrifice washing away our sins. Who is "that" God. "That" God is the god of sacrifice, who is the "devil". Mr. Whiskers is puzzled! Please explain to Mr. Whiskers. Yummy milk for the kitty!

This God: will have sacrifice and not mercy.
That God: will have mercy, and not sacrifice.

That God: is light having no darkness at all.

Be ye reconciled (thru J-->C)-->to that God.
(Paul The Apostle: 2Corinthians 5)

Paul is a faithful "steward" of the "mysteries" of God; Both a clever revealer and a clever concealer.

Try connecting your biblical dots, grasshopper.

Take heed 101 = be not deceived.
Give more earnest heed 201 = escape.
