AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ecclesiastes 9:11 ¶ I again saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift and the battle is not to the strong, and neither is bread to the wise nor riches to those of intelligence and understanding nor favor to men of ability; but time and chance overtake them all.

Bible Question:
I hope to have additional answer to this question. In 2Sa 6:6 ΒΆ And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it. 2Sa 6:7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God. If we analyze what happened I think the motive of Uzzah really is to protect the ark of covenant to fall or break, or as a human instinct it could be a reaction if you saw something falling down. Why God killed him right away? In 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. It was written there that if we confess our sins, He will cleanse us from all unrighteousness, did Uzzah has the chance to confess and ask forgiveness? How could he ask forgiveness if God killed him right away? God bless, |
Bible Answer: "time and chance happeneth to them all. |
