Faithful -Deuteronomy 7:9-10

The Old Testament is often viewed as the judgmental half of the Bible. Although the law was established in the Old Testament, even this section of the Bible contains encouraging promises for the Christian.

"Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments; and He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack with Him; He will repay him to his face."

There are two options: Love God and obey Him, or don't. God promises that He will continue to show mercy to those who love Him, and He also promises to repay those who won't.
