Hi African Venus Under the Mosaic Covenant given to Israel are the commandments Thou shalt have no other gods before me… Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God. Out of these and other laws came the righteous will of God, these ordinances of God formed one religious system to govern the people of Israel. Failure to comply was accompanied by Judgment, condemnation and of death. However, in today’s period of time we are under the new covenant of grace. Unlike the Midianites or people of ancient time faced swifter judgment of God, truly different dispensation. The Midianites you are referring to, were people whom worship other gods, not the God of Israel, Numbers chapter 25, But the Israeli joined themselves to Midianites sinful social lifestyle. Their action caused the anger of the Lord to kindle against Israel, Num.25.3. However, The priest Aaron pleased the lord, by doing so he turned God’s wrath away from the children of Israel. God said “ I consumed not the children of Israel in my Jealousy.” Num.25.11. God was not pleased with Midianites perversions of the Israelites. Therefore, swift Judgment was on the Midianites “ and the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, vex the Midianites and smite them, Num.25.16-17. During the war in Numbers chapter 31, one can see that God favor the children of Israel: honoring his own commandments, using the people of Israel to reveal his displeasure with any person(s) given over to a sinful nature. The ultimate consequent of sin is death, if there is no atonement or high priest intervention such as Christ intervening on our behalf. Edd |

Hi African Venus, Aaron is said to be the first of the priests of Israel: However, during the conflicts between the Midianites and Israel, according to chapter 25 and 31 of Numbers, he was not present in this particular era of time. Nevertheless, God made a covenant of peace with the children of Israel, declared war via Moses, with the people of Midian, but Aaron was not there. However, in my previous reply to your question; in error I placed Aaron at the scene. It wasn’t Aaron, but his descendant Phinehas son of Eleazar. . As for Aaron, he was already deceased in Numbers chapter 20:28, this oversight on my behalf was ignorance (Lack of knowledge): evidently, God is not finish with me, as of yet. In any case, Twenty-four thousand people had died from a plague: related to sinful acts, committed by the Midian and Israel people, while indulging in the worshiper of other gods. Remember, that God clearly stated in Exodus chapter 20, that He is a Jealous God. Based on Phinehas reactions to the sinful adapted lifestyle of Israel, and his zealous honor for God: the lord God honored the intent of Phinehas heart, and made atonement for the Israelites Num.25. I hope this somewhat clears up this matter; and I apologized for any confusion it may have caused. “God is not the author of confusion, but of peace….” 1 Cor.14: 33. Emmaus,thanks for notes on subject, may God richly bless your ministry. Edd |

I would like to share this with you. Lately I have not attended Church services on a regular basic, fed up with hoopla without the power of God, all talk and no action, congregations condemnation without biblical support, Church house full of converts whom have establish their own righteousness’ omitting the righteousness of God, and Preachers who will not preach to then or us the word of God, spending hours talking about worldly circumstance, situation and events; instead of preaching the word of God, which deliver my soul every time I hear it, read it or see it’s manifestations. However, it has saddened me to witness these LACK OF occurrences in some of our local churches houses. Nevertheless, God is not finished with the restoration of our soul. When Jesus said it is finished he was referring to his works on the cross, as it pertains to our salvation and this is not to say that my works in the body of Christ finished are I would already be with the dead in Christ. Therefore, God has helps me to enter the church. In this case the church building which is somewhat different than the actual church as in the body of Christ. So, I drag my self through the front doors of church building, praising God with hope for change soon to come, before I waste away in some powerless assembly calling it’s self a local church,Oh lord My God Please help us and have mercy . Here is a testimony, last weekend we went camping, route to campsite I noticed a church building, on Sunday I went and attended the service. The word of God was powerful the Preach readied scriptures straight-out the bible, it really touch my heart made me all watery eyed. At the end of Service communion was severed. One of the brothering invited me to participate in the Lord’s Supper. So, with the smell camping on my body, and wooly hair, I must have looked as thought I lived in the forest, because I didn’t look like any one else in the congregation, but I was having holy communion with my brothers and sister in a far away place. It seem as thought the congregation did not even notice my outward appearance. All the time while attending the church services, I had not spoken one word. After the service were completed, and we were exiting the building, one of the brothering greeted me and said "do I Know you from some where" he implied, Seen you at a health club or somewhere; as he was trying to place me, I answered him, No! "This is my first time visiting this area, but I do have a health club membership but don’t use it" at that very moment, as I spoke these words to the gentleman, the spirit of God spoke to me and said "you have a membership in the body of Christ and you don’t use it." I believe that God wants us to use our Church membership; it’s benefits and privileges. It is something special that people of God have and the world do not have. For the saint of God to have such asset, connection to the throng of God and not to use it, is the same as to not have such saving grace at all. We are then viewed and having allowed ourselves to become just as the people of the world, with no difference in _______________. |

Personally I believe that your position is a valid one and your argument is solid as a rock. We do not have to, have our names written on membership rolls of world church institutions, even thought you might be label a renegade, and deal with rejection, as soon as you indicate that you are a Christian without a church home, and just want to fellowship, the average Churchlike person will run away from you like a contagious diseased,We are not to worry about this kind of behavior. However, it is an entirely different situation if our names are not written in the lamb’s book of life. In this case it’s nothing but the lake of fire and brimstone waiting for that person, whose name is not on God’s roll. Therefore, if a church is for God, support it, and if a church is against God, he has already condemned it. We can not curse or condemned, what God has not curse and condemned, Therefore enjoy the Church, and if they reject you for being who you are in Christ; don’t feel to bad because Jesus received the same treatment when he walked the face of the earth. Hang in there the lord will help you make the right decisions about Church building, he want leave us in the dark, regarding varies church establishments. You are blessed among men. Edd |

32 | Why is life expectancy for Americans low | Gen 6:3 | Edd | 133443 | ||
You asked "in comparison to what" my response are; compared to the 120 years indicate in the Bible book of Genesis 6:3. And no we are not discussing a guaranteed promise life of 120 years on earth: but God has said the maximal amount of expectant years of life on earth is set at 120 for humanity. Why is life expectancy for American is 76.9 years, when God has clearly stated 120 years? | ||||||

"Then the Lord said, My Spirit shall not forever dwell and STRIVE WITH MAN, for he also is flesh; but his days shall yet be 120 years:" Genesis 6:3. I can’t agree with your "Some interpretation" or analogy of scripture. Simply put, it’s obvious to most born again Christian believer that God’s spirit is yet striving with mankind many years after the great flood of Noah’s days. Therefore the scripture could not have possibly meant 120 years preceded the flood Noah’s generation. Furthermore, according to the bible Noah was already 600 years old at the time of the flood and lived on to see the ripe old age of 950 years old. God blessed Noah and his family. Do the math Noah lived 350 more years after the flood. I really don’t understand how some have arrived at an awkward biblical conclusion regarding the meaning of"God striving with mankind for 120 years." | ||||||

This was Moses prayer to God about "Our iniquities, our secret heart and its sins [which we would so like to conceal even from ourselves], You have set in the [revealing] light of Your countenance." Ps 90:9 For all our days [out here in this wilderness, says Moses] pass away in Your wrath; we spend our years as a tale that is told [for we adults know we are doomed to die soon, without reaching Canaan]. [Num. 14:26-35.] Ps 90:10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten (seventy years)--or even, if by reason of strength, fourscore years (eighty years); yet is their pride [in additional years] only labor and sorrow, for it is soon gone, and we fly away. Ps 90:11 Who knows the power of Your anger? [Who worthily connects this brevity of life with Your recognition of sin?] And Your wrath, who connects it with the reverent and worshipful fear that is due You? Ps 90:12 So teach us to number our days, that we may get us a heart of wisdom. In comparison; and taking all these scriptures into account,this is a very credible reading as to why life expectancy in America is at 76.9; Moses is saying in his prayer (Ps 90:8) it’s because of sin. |

"Please read what it actually says to avoid reading into it what one may wish it to mean." Gen 5:32 After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Gen 6:3 Then the Lord said, My Spirit shall not forever dwell and strive with man, for he also is flesh; but his days shall yet be 120 years. Gen 7:6 Noah was 600 years old when the flood of waters came upon the earth or land. Gen 9:28 And Noah lived after the flood 350 years And do a little math because it’s an exact science. |

I don't know the mind of God or why he allowed these men to live long lives: life is according to God's purpose, but I did read the book of Jonah and saw his experience when he thought he knew the mind of God. Perhaps your views on this subject conflicts with Moses Prayer in Psalm 90: 7-12, maybe these scriptures can assist you. |

Heb. 10:26 "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins." This scripture is very true, but it could easily be misunderstood. It means once we come into the knowledge of Christ and his forgiviness of sin. Understand that there is no other sacrifice for sin since Jesus Christ. Remember the people were sacrificing animals, since Christ paid the price for our sin on the cross. no more animals sacrifice for sin is acceptable. |
