Bible Question:
According to scripture our days are numbered. Over 3000 soldiers have been killed in the Iraq war. If they had not been in the war, would they have died by some other means? I personally believe the Bible so I feel that they would have died in another manner. I would like your view point. |
Bible Answer: Camera Man - While you are encouraged to ask questions on Study Bible Forum, the one you have posed is one of those "what if" types of questions that always call for speculation, and speculation is of little value in any human enterprise and of no value in studying God's word. My point is this: Some 3,000 U. S. soldiers have been killed in the Iraqi war. That is a fact, a statistic, a reality, a past event of recent history that cannot be changed. What, I ask, have we to gain, what can we possibly learn, and what on earth can we prove by engaging in the sort of speculative conversation that your question invites? Sorry, sir, but your question opens an area of conjecture, guesswork, and speculation that do not fall within the horizon of the aims and purposes of SBF. But you are certainly welcome to ask Bible questions and give Bible answers all day long! --Hank |
