Subject: Lands razed ; prophesized be barren ever |
Bible Note: Thanks again, CDBJ. That is one of the verses I had in mind when I said his heart had been hardened and eyes blinded, among other things. Prayer does seem to be the only way in some cases. Matt. 7:6 - "Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces." The treasure of the Gospel cannot be given in obvious pearls to those who reject it outright, but we can leave a trial of crumbs for them to follow, sometimes, and hope that, by God's grace, they are part of the elect, despite their former and present behavior, and His grace and power in Jesus Christ will call them to repentance and eternal life. Thank you again, Brother,and God bless and keep you. And oh, if you do happen to recall any of those passages of the razed lands that remain barren to this day, that would be a blessing, as well. :O) |
