The Bible is not a book about being good except to those who agree with you. To everyone else it says to kill them in various ways. It also says you can execute your own children if they act rebellious, beat them with rods, take women as slaves in wars, and to raze entire cities if just one person worships anyone but "God."
That's not any sane human being's idea of "good."
A lot of threads and media coverage denounces ISIS for its' barbarity, and wightly so. But what none mentions is since Islam is based largely on Judaism and to a lesser extent Christianity, much of what Muslim extremists are doing like taking captives for sex slaves is actually permitted in the Bible.
10If you go out to war against your enemies, and the Lord, your God, will deliver him into your hands, and you take his captives,
11and you see among the captives a beautiful woman and you desire her, you may take [her] for yourself as a wife.
12You shall bring her into your home, and she shall shave her head and let her nails grow.
13And she shall remove the garment of her captivity from upon herself, and stay in your house, and weep for her father and her mother for a full month. After that, you may be intimate with her and possess her, and she will be a wife for you.
- Deuteronomy 21
That is not a "nice, just, or good" thing to do. Yet the "good" God of the Bible says you may do so. But despite this when ISIS actually does it, they're condemned by the whole Christian and Jewish world for doing only what your own Bibles said to do.
Ever asked yourself why you're under the impression God is a good deity? Have you ever actually read a website's criticism of the Bible like evilbible.com or do you kinda know there's evil stuff but turn a blind eye to it?
