Subject: Why children as well? |
Bible Note: Ngop You may be right in some cases, however in most people are trying to justify themselves outside of God. They believe if they can make God look bad then what they do won't be so bad. This is an age old tactic that most parents of two children experience. You call one in to discipline them and they immediately say, "well yes I did such and such but bro/sis did THIS!" This is there attempt to divert you, to make what they did pale in comparison to what their sibling did. Visit any prison after you get past "I'm innocent" the next thing they will say, "is yes I killed some one but at least I'm not like Joe over there, he is killed five or raped a child or whatever." So yes while I would like to believe it is someone with a healthy curiosity I find it is usually a person in sin trying to make themselves comfortable rather than yielding to God. That is why I used this open example, to show them pointing a finger at a just God trying to justify themselves doesn’t play well. Sin is sin and what they need is to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior to cleanse them of sin, not human justification. EdB |
