AMPLIFIED 2015 | James 1:13 Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am being tempted by God" [for temptation does not originate from God, but from our own flaws]; for God cannot be tempted by [what is] evil, and He Himself tempts no one. |
Bible Question: Why pharaoh heart was hardened by GOD when dealing with Israel? It seemed like he did not has the choice at the moment ? Why Jesus said He said something not to let pagan understand else they will turn to God and repent? Isn't it good more people to repent to God? |
Bible Answer: Read your Bible. There were times when Pharoah hardened his own heart. Where in the Bible does it say Pharoah had no choice? When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. James 1:13-14 (NIV) Isn't it good to let God be God? It is good not to tell God how to be God or how to run his business. |
