Bible Question: How does a wonderful, giving, caring God speak of turning people into canibals? How holy is that? It's in Jeremiah 19:9. The devil is showing us who he his, yet we still remain fooled and DECEIVED. QUESTION ALL INFORMATION, ESPECIALLY THE BIBLE. |
Bible Answer: There is a difference between a carnivore and a scavenger. In this passage, eating the flesh of their sons and daughters is never called a good thing. Remember from verse 5 of that chapter, the rebellious people are already sacrificing their children to idols. God NEVER commanded them to do this. Trust the Bible, question all else. However, since you would question the Bible, how do you know that God is "wonderful, giving, and caring"? Are you using your own definitions of these words or God's definitions? |
