Sadly you have no understanding of the absolute nature of God or of the perfection of Christ. Jesus was murdered by the sin of the world in which we are all complicit. Each of us has a hand in his cricifixion. God’s perfection and sinlessness is so absolute he cannot see us with any sin. This is precisely what hiding in the cleft of the Rock is about. We literally hide in Christ, allowing Him to cover our sins so that His Father will not see them.
We are utterly and absolutely lost and damned without Christ at the heart of our lives. God does not look beyond sin. If He did He would not have needed to send his Son, Christ to provide the means of salvation. Sin blinds Gods’s eyes to us. In our sinful state we cannot enter into His presence. Even the tiniest sin condemns us to eternal death. Only by being washed in the blood of the Lamb do we have any hope of eternal peace and love with God.
Looking for sweetness and light in this fallen world is a fool’s errand. There are none among us, not one, worthy of salvation except by atonement, sacrifice and surrender to Christ. Jesus said we must die to our selves to be born into His life.

Yes, you have been taught poorly. God is not a saintly grandfather who overlooks our sin. He is the Lord of the universe and we are but specs of dust in His creation. Surrender yourself to God before it is too late.

I'm sorry, but what I'm hearing from you is what I call madness.

God is love.

May you someday experience that love, and find peace.

You have set yourself up as my judge, a role for which you are wholly unprepared.

God is love.

Yes, God is love. Will you entertain a question? It is a question presented to me that still leaves me thinking.

If we are saved by God, what are we saved from?

Q: Do you believe in Hell and if so, who do you think will go there?
