1 | Why God ask Saul to kill if is forbidden | Bible general Archive 3 | Loretta06 | 180213 | ||
The Lord has COMMANDED the Israelites to kill. It's like the Lord is actually the one killing, not the people. The 10 commandments don't say that the LORD may not kill. Also, since God made individuals(psalm 139)then He can also kill them. Also, those nations were "in the way" of GOD's Plan. That land had be granted to God's people who followed and trusted him (sometimes:-) ). So, God the Creator and Destroyer of Evil, chose to COMMAND his people to kill. Oh, this is in Deuteronomy 7:1-2. "When the LORD your God brings you into the land where you are entering to possess it, and clears away many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and stronger than you, and when the LORD your God delivers them before you and you defeat them, then you shall utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them and show no favor to them." Coincidentally, the Amalekites aren't mentioned as a nation to destroy. This is probably because they weren't occupying a huge piece of land since they had been mostly destroyed. Exodus 17:8 "Then Amalek came and fought against Israel at Rephidim."... Exodus 17:13. "So Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword." ...I don't know about "overwhelmed", the NIV says "overcame." Anyway, God COMMANDS them to destroy this nation too: "and he said, "The LORD has sworn; the LORD will have war against Amalek from generation to generation."-Exodus 17:16. |

2 | Why did God make some people handicapped | Ps 139:14 | Loretta06 | 180209 | ||
Searcher is right. It's also about trusting God in everything (the one needing help, and the relatives, family, friends, therapists). By mistake I looked up Luke 9 verse 1-3 instead of John 9:1-3. There, the 12 disciples went out to preach the gospel (probably for the rest of their lives). But in a way they were handicapped. They were not allowed to take staff, bag, bread, money or extra clothes. Wasn't that all about trust too? |

3 | God can use woman in the ministry? | Gal 3:28 | Loretta06 | 180196 | ||
Yes, God can use women in ministry as evangelists and missionaries and Sunday School teachers. God can teach them Biblical truths and messages in Bible college and in university so they in turn can teach others. But as ministers in a congregation? Women are the mothers (their primary role is caregiving) All of Proverbs 31. And the single and widowed? Read Timothy 5 for instructions to widows. I think the instructions for the widowed or just plain single are similar. In 1 Timothy 5 I don't read that singles are to be busy as ministers, no just be part of a family. |
