What traits are you referring to please be specific that God in the OT and NT do not share.
Edit: A bumpy road ahead for you Kelly. Fasten your seatbelt.

I think at times you show the qualities that ToO was trying to bring to the fore with that gracious act.
Just remember: first time you err, its a mistake. The second time its a decision.
I for one would love to see a KJ/Ghost debate battle.

'For the LORD your God in the midst of you is a jealous God; otherwise the anger of the LORD your God will be kindled against you, and He will wipe you off the face of the earth.'
Please provide NT passages that mirror this divine jealousy, hate and vengeance and demonstrates that God's character hasn't changed.

being written God was calling out for himself a people from the midst of a polytheist
world. He spent a lot of time curing out of His own the lust for other gods. The 10
Commandments were still the 10 Commandments in the NT as they were in the OT and
the very 1st one remained the very first one.
Everyone in the NT didn't throw their kids into fire any more to other gods, they were
convinced that there was only One God, the God of their fathers. Yet they were also
aware of "divine jealousy" too, as a wife shouldn't cheat on her husband or the husband
his wife they shouldn't seek other gods.
2 Corinthians 11:2
For I feel a divine jealousy for you, since I betrothed you to one husband, to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
There is nothing wrong with hate, provided what is being hated should be. God hates
evil and wickedness, those that live their lives in both are not in a good place before God.
One of the verse I've pointed out a few times is in John 3 where Jesus tells us that we
are already condemned outside of Jesus Christ. The wrath of God is being restrained
in the OT, and in the NT by God against our evil and wickedness, giving us room to
repent and turn to Him.
We are told not to take vengeance upon those that wrong us, because vengeance
belongs to God, He will repay.
Romans 12:19
Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”
Hebrews 1:9
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.”
The whole world is going to be destroyed it has been announced in the NT in very graphic details,
then the judgment of God comes, He has been working on a way to save mankind from
the book of Genesis on, but those that live in sin and wickedness will be destroyed, if
they are found outside of the salvation God has given us in Christ Jesus.

A woman should seek an intelligent husband to guide herself in life. Especially a woman like you. There are exceptions of course but this truism holds firm

I have, literally, no need for a husband. Not only are there so few men capable of being monogamous, but there are even fewer who are actually intelligent.
And no one is going to guide me, except me.
