| 1 | Exodus 12:29 (KJV) | Ex 12:23 | DocTrinsograce | 233778 | ||
| Hi, Heman... Obviously, God Himself, as all that happens is in His hand -- raising up and destruction, prospering and tearing down. Or did you have a more particular answer to the identity of the angel of death? In Him, Doc |

| 2 | destroyer Isaiah 54:16 | Ex 12:23 | heman | 233780 | ||
| Does that mean God created the destroyer for His purpose to test men? Isaiah 54:16 (Darby) 16 Behold, it is I who have created the smith that bloweth in the fire of coal, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the destroyer to ravage.(destroy) Romans 1:25 (GW) 25 These people have exchanged God's truth for a lie. So they have become ungodly and serve what is created rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen! |

| heman, how is this post related the to thread. You are new ... so in the future please start a new thread. Where do you get the idea that God created the destroyer for His purpose to TEST (emphasis mine) men? God created everything for His purpose ... "my servant Nebuchadnezzar" (Jer 43:10) is example.

| Didn't God create the serpent? Gen 2:19 Now Yahweh God had formed from the ground every living thing of the field and every bird of the heavens, which he brought in unto the man, that he might see what he should call it,—and, whatsoever the man should call it—any living soul, that, should be the name thereof. If God created it all he had to do was to speak like He did with the Donkey,who by the way was an angel actually speaking, to test Adam and Eve. Gen 3:14 Then said Yahweh God unto the serpent—Because thou hast done this, Accursed, art thou above every tame-beast, and above every wild-beast of the field,—on thy belly, shall thou go, and dust, shalt thou eat all the days of thy life. If God sentenced the serpent to crawl on it's belly then he sentenced it to death like everything else. Gen 3:19 ..For, dust, thou art, And, unto dust, shalt thou return.

| 6 | destroyer | Ex 12:23 | heman | 233828 | ||
| That is an answer? Does the Bible ever say that He did not? Does the Bible ever say He created a donkey to test Balaam? Who smote the Egyptians? Exo 12:29 And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, Why don't you try addressing the scripture instead of using reverse Psychology to answer a question with a question, thereby avoiding an honest answer? |

| Please feel free to follow-up with an additional question or note. Why don't you try addressing the scripture instead of using reverse Psychology to answer a question with a question, thereby avoiding an honest answer? 2 Pet 3:16 Speaking of this as he does in all of his letters. There are some things in those [epistles of Paul] that are difficult to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist and misconstrue to their own utter destruction, just as [they distort and misinterpret] the rest of the Scriptures. |

| Dear heman, Since you are new here, I hope the following tips helpful for you when posting and for better follow up discussion for other users. 1/ When you post a follow-up note or question in the existing thread, please mark it "note" unless you want to start a new question outside of the original thread. 2/ When you register, I believe (to my memory) there is a requirement that you need to fill in your valid email address. So, when a post/question is in respond to yours, the system will automatically notify you by email. In case you are sure that you are missing any email notification from Lockman, you can always write to them for help. 3/ As a long-time participant on the forum, the style of Searcher that I understand is that he always provide short and biblical answer, but might not be direct answer. He also likes to answer with a question to trigger the poster's thought to dig into the scripture. I think this is a good way to foster thinking. We have been experiencing many demanding straight forward direct from the forum as if the forum is a "fast food restaurant". I believe most of the regulars here on the forum do not think it a good idea for training serious bible study. Concerning your question, I see that brother Doc has provided you an answer already --- God created all things for His glory (my paraphrase of his actual wordings). Let me provide the below scriptures to consider:- Psalm 19 Roman 3:23 Roman 8:28 Remember, when you study the scriptures, you may encounter with difficulties on a certain/particular word or phrase. Don't just get stuck there and make haste to file your questions, try reread again and again the whole chapter or even those chapters before and after in order to get a better idea of the context that construct the idea of the writer of the book. God's holy Word is so deep and rich like a buried treasure. It requires our hardwork to dig, dig, dig... Shalom Azure |

| "God created all things for His glory" was not the question. I asked if the destroyer was the same as the angel who tested Job with boils and then I posted "all the evil the hand of GOD brought upon him." Is that to difficult for a straight answer rather than answering a question with a question Reverse Psychology" when you intentionally and strongly argue in favor of a decision or behavior while secretly wanting the receiver of your argument to endorse the opposite decision or behavior.(reverse Psychology) http://www.psychologytoday.com/do-you-use-reverse-psychology-stop-right-now Now back to the subject: Exo 12:29 And it came to pass, at midnight, that Yahweh, smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat upon his throne, unto the firstborn of the captive who was in the pit of his prison,—and every firstborn of beasts. Job 19:21 Pity me! pity me! ye, my friends, for, the hand of GOD, hath stricken me! ROTHERHAM These do not address the question. Are you telling me what to post? Psalm 19:8 The precepts of Yahweh, are right, Rejoicing the heart, The, commandment of Yahweh, is pure, Enlightening the eyes; Roman 3:23 For, all, have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; Roman 8:28 We know, further, that, unto them who love God, God causeth all things to work together for good,—unto them who, according to purpose, are such as he hath called; I might add fpr your exegesis Remember, when you study the scriptures, you may encounter with difficulties on a certain/particular word or phrase. Don't just get stuck there and make haste to file your ANSWERS, try reread again and again the whole chapter or even those chapters before and after in order to get a better idea of the context that construct the idea of the writer of the book. AND compare ALL scriptures not just the content of ONE. God's holy Word is so deep and rich like a buried treasure. It requires our hardwork to dig, dig, dig... compare what other theologians have to say like STRONG, BRUCE, SMITH, GRIESBACH, DEISSMANN; etc. |

| And the LORD said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him do not stretch out your hand.” So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD. (Job 1:12 ESV) Satan is the one who tested Job. God allowed it. Job's friends were sure he had sinned and that is why, but they were proven wrong (Job 42:7-9). You do understand that the OT people viewed anything bad coming from God as punishement for their sin, which Job shows this not to be true. Brad |

| Dear Brad: Don't you know the Book of Job is a parable and not to be taken literally? Job 27:1 Moreover Job continued his parable, and said, I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal. Job 27:11 To forsake the Devil is to forsake the worship of Demons or Ghosts and of all false gods whatsoever collectively called the Devil. The “Devil”, then, is a symbol of lust and an vivid hypostatization of idolatry in aggregate. This language cannot be reconciled with the orthodox position. ..and rejecting the devil as a supernatural evil being: Satan is nothing else but Adversary, and is to be understood according to the Subject to which it is applied. Thus being bound of Satan means no more than that which was an Adversary to Health, be it what it would. The cases of demon-possession in the Synoptic Gospels do not describe the activity of literal devils, but instead reflect the (mistaken) beliefs of first-century Jews...to beleive that men or weomen can really divine, charm, inchant, bewitch or converse with spirits is a superstition and that the orthodox understanding of demons was an early heresy imported from paganism:the devil in Scripture was never the supernatural evil being of orthodox theology, and that all temptation comes from the lust of the heart:those who claim to be tempted by a personal devil are deluded and provoked by their own fleshly imagination. http://dlxs2.library.cornell.edu/ Job 2:1 Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and the adversary came also among them to present himself before the LORD.In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. Job 12:10 Job 12:9 Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this? Job 27:22 For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand. Job 2:10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips. Job 19:21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me. ..why is it that demon possession was so frequent in the 1st century, and yet so rare since and yet find scarce any mention of them before, or any authentic accounts of them since that time; in contemporary authors of other countries? http://dlxs2.library.cornell.edu/ |

| Hello heman, No, I didn't know the Book of Job was a parable and not to be taken literally! I take strong issue with that supposition. Might I ask by what authority you state this and what's your source? Job 27:1 may better be understaood and translated as "discourse". That aside, I'm still not following any of your logic and string of verses! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
