Bible Question:
It's been a long while since I posted. Since then, I have moved from Hawaii to Virginia. When I have posted, I have been a stauch NRSV user. Now, after lying to myself so long (over language towards gender), I have dropped the NRSV and have gone to the RSV. Since that, I have felt better and liberated. Now on to the questions: Recently nine Miners were pulled from a shaft alive. I praise God for that. I am wondering, why did God let those nine miners live but let 3,000 plus people perish on 11 Sept 01? Second question: Is the Universal Life Church scripurial? Thanks Everyone! |
Bible Answer: roverjbh99...welcome back...I would just like to answer the first part of your question and let the experts answer the rest as I am not up to date on The Universal Life Church...There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans'whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.2And Jesus answering said unto them,Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans'because they suffered such things?3I tell you,Nay:but,except ye repent,ye shall all likewise perish.4 Or those 18,upon whom the tower in Siloam fell,and slew them,think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?5 I tell you, Nay:but,except ye repent,ye shall all likewise perish...it is a terrible thing that happened on Sept.11...I do fell that God was manifested greatly in the love and support that was poured out and even to the point that the President of the United States stood before this Nation and Quoted scripture and the fact that our Congress joined in...for the first time in a long time our Nation was United through prayer and aide...I was set back at what happened to the people at the trade center but as I watched on and begain to see God at work behind the disaster I begain to pray for this Nation to turn back to God before it got any worse...11 months later and we are sinking back to the same divisions as before....I wish the 9 miners brought as much glory and attention to God...as it should have...but like you said Praise God for the fact that they are alive..God Bless |
