2 Kings 6:28-29,

28And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.

29So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.



^^why is everyone avoiding adressing this? Dude said it's okay to boil my son and eat him, and then did so. That's normal conduct to you?

you don't know that whole story, the King is the King of a city that has little to no food....and there is a begging woman on the street as the king is passing and she says lets eat your son today and mine tomorrow, and they ate the kings son which was going to be killed anyways for working with a man of god, Elisha, and then the woman hid her son..which was also to be killed.

Elisha told the king God will feed them tomorrow if they be patient and he told him they will see food but they were to not eat, but the king had ate his son and then some drama happens GOD makes the Syrian camp hear noises thinkin it was an army coming to kill them and they run for their life leaving everything behind and so on... and then the next day(the tomorrow Elisha was talking about) the King hears of all the stuff left behind and he forgets about punishing the woman for not upholding her part of the deal and the king and the people of the city go to the Syrian camp and they take all the food and go back to the city and when The King is at the gate returning to the city Elisha is there and says "I told you so"= translated to modern times..

and GOD says "Now if I should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shal not eat thereof, and then the Kind dies=basically that right there is God saying i told you not to eat until today and he says if you were in heaven and could see down to earth would you be able to follow my directions, and the king says yes because he could see it but couldnt eat it....

then it tells of Elisha talking with the woman and blah blah blah

Facts I left out
-The King also had her son's head cut off
-Elisha brings the woman's son back to life "restored his life" as they say

Apexx you would be a great person to have Bible study with, I haven't read the Bible in a while until now and I thank you for that

God was displeased with those who were "gay" or showing they were gay; however, you want to put it. He didn't like it.

I didn't mention the other sins or say anything relating to it, I already know what the others are. It's one thing to just "know" what the sins are and another to live with it.

And if you talking bout me (if you aren't then ignore this part) using profanity, I actually drifted from that because yes it's not good to talk like that and angry? I'm not close to being angry.

Nobnody knows weither its fact or fiction.

Its a ''belief''...

and I have the belief in science and evolution...so there for ...to me, and other people...the bible is nothin more than useless rambling, which could of meant that one person made it all up and people believed it........hence their christian belief. :cool:

Lady Fiya, If you take that quote out your sig, I'll agree with everythin you say In here.

I already touched basis on the 2 Kings quote. LOL, dag I need to get my Bible in a bit anyways. = )

no no no...You may not be gay. You may not curse. You may not have anger issues. But, you deal with something. So, my point is, don't point on ONE sin just because you don't have to deal with it. Compose used the issue of being gay as a cheap shot. And, let's not split hairs here. "showing they were gay" means having gay sex or attempting to do so. In Jewish custom, it was against the law for men to dress like women and vice versa. That doesn't mean they were "gay" if they did so. Dressing up like a woman when you're a man isn't acting "gay." So, your statement is somewhat ambiguous. As someone who's had to deal with homosexuality, I know that it's my struggle to stay focused. For someone else, it may be fornicating, or lying, or pride, or being judgmental. Whatever your vice is, it needs to be yielded to God. I'm just calling Compose on his cheap attempt at a cheap shot. COMPOSE, Lady Fiya, Q, and everyone else in this thread is a sinner.


period.

i eat people....

the BIBLE is a book that was written by man , but INSPIRED by GOD...which means that GOD came to people in visions and such, and told them what to write...the books of Corinthians were letters from one of the disciples to a people called "Corinthians" so not everything is just "GOD told me to tell this story" some things are inspired by GOD, but from the heart, to other people...but you're right, it IS about belief...anything you believe, you have to have faith in...whether it be evolution or the BIBLE, because "faith is the belief in things unseen"...nobody really knows how everything that Is, came to be...but you choose to have faith in either man, who is in the same position as you, and whom you can see, or a GOD, that is all-powerful and all-knowing

it is still against GOD's word for women to dress like men and men to dress like women, can't remember where but it IS in the BIBLE though...and like ThaQ said, no sin is greater than the other...so basically unless you have NO sins to be forgiven of, do not bring up another person's sin
pray for yourself and pray for them

Just like no one really knows if the Big Bang theory is fact/fiction... but yeah I know belief is belief. But if you not into a "belief" why you steady come into every thread relating to it. And make the same comment. You not adding to the conversation. All you say is you "LOL" at the Bible, well great. I think we all understand your position in the any "Bible" thread. *claps*

And the sig stays. It put a smile on my face. = )

The irony of believing the bible is that you have to believe the bible is believeable to believe it.

lol

In other words, we believe that the words we read were divinely inspired. So, if you don't believe that, you can't possibly go further and believe anything else it says.

Corinthians was not a letter from one of the Disciples. Paul wrote it and he wasn't a disciple of Jesus, but an Apostle.

Ok, your trynna make me look stupid with that sig :(
