Bible Question:
Here's another hypothetical to spark your imagination. Yes, there are many reasons it is silly, but that's why its called a hypothetical: You are a paramedic. You find Satan lying on the ground, injured and bleeding. Without first aid, he will die. Let us also say that if Satan dies, the evil now present in the world would disappear. Your options are: do nothing, let him die render aid, save his life kill him, hasten the removal of evil What should you do? Explain. |
Bible Answer: Great question. Answering this question, like mine, tells a lot about the person doing the answering. Some people are too quick to judgement. Scary. I have no idea what is going to happen on judgement day, but if you read the new Testament, Jesus seemed the sort to make people think. I think learning scripture is extremely important, but even more important is knowing how to follow it. Jesus did say to love your enemies. |
