"The next day the older daughter said to the younger, “Last night I slept with my father. Let’s get him to drink wine again tonight, and you go in and sleep with him so we can preserve our family line through our father.” So they got their father to drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in and slept with him. Again he was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up. So both of Lot’s daughters became pregnant by their father." Genesis 19:30-38

I would strongly recommend reading Piper’s books “Don’t Waste Your Life”, & “What’s The Difference”. Very good.

[@lovejoypeaceforever]

The penal substitution of Jesus Christ on the cross at Calvary for the sins of his elect, His resurrection and assumption are foundational to the doctrine of justification in Christianity. Christians believe that on the cross, Jesus voluntarily bore our sins. Jesus allowed people to lie about him and kill him. He used the evil done to him to bring good to others. He sacrificed himself and demonstrated the greatest love of all. On the cross is where we are redeemed, and it is where a Christian’s sin debt to God is cancelled.

Period: Fri, 11.01.1946 - Sun, 20.10.2019 Length of the period: 73 years, 9 months, 1 week, 3 days Length in days: 26946 days ------- ------- ------- Act 1:22 Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection. Verse # = 26946 | Words =21 | Letters = 110 So you do not miss your Sunday sermon John, do not forget the special day, josh :-) you almost forgot, what :-) 1Ch 28:2 Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in mine heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building: Verse # = 11146 Neh 7:7 Who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number, I say, of the men of the people of Israel was this; Verse # = 12428 | Words =18 | Letters = 77 All the Verses in the Bible with Sum = 11146 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. Mat 9:29 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. Joh 6:2 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. Rev 7:6 Psa 25:14 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. Joh 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. Pro 5:18 Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.

A god that demanded blood, torture and suffering is not a good god. Why couldn't he just forgive? Forgive without pain and bloodshed? Why did this god demand the bloodshed of countless innocent animals for centuries? What did they do?

[@timothystonebarger8672]

Lawrence Eason good Question, but even more so, Noones blood was shed for our forgiveness, besides His. Jesus. God himself took the responsibility for our sins and boar them on the Christ

[@lawrenceeason8007]

@@timothystonebarger8672 so if god is a good god, then why did he demand bloodshed? Why was there sacrifice at all? Did this god have the power to do it without pain and suffering...blood? And why did animals have to pay the price? What did they do?

[@lawrenceeason8007]

@@peanutbutterknitting so how is a god any better when it institutes torture and pain in its own design? Does it make any sense that for us to redeem ourselves from the "sin" of bad conduct that this god implements bad conduct for the redemption? This god is no better

[@lawrenceeason8007]

@@peanutbutterknitting Yes I give the example of Abraham and Isaac as an example of incredible cruelty. Terrible thing that was. But if your defense of this god you believe in is to point out bad people who do the same thing, that doesn't do much for this god. It is especially bad that this god, through a simple decision of a different plan, could have spared the suffering of countless thousands of animals when it wasn't necessary. If it was necessary, then your god isn't all powerful or knowing. Certainly not benevolent. It all boils down to if the bible demonstrates a good, moral god. Clearly it doesn't: Deuteronomy 21:18-22 (kill an unruly child) Deuteronomy 22:20-21 (stone a woman on marriage day if not a virgin) Leviticus 20:13 (kill homosexuals) Exodus 21:17 (murder your children if they curse at you) 1 Samuel 15:2-3 (god commands the Amelikites to be slaughtered and specifically mentions the children AND babies to be killed as well as the innocent animals) Leviticus 20:10 (murder a person who has had sex outside of their marriage and murder the other person too) Exodus 31:15 (murder someone working on Sabbath) Deuteronomy 20:16-18 1 Samuel 15:3 (genocide) Numbers 31:18 (pedophilia) 2 Kings 8:12 (rip babies from pregnant women = pro abortion) Tortured job and killed his family to test his faith Deuteronomy 25:11-12 (if a woman touches a man's genitals in an argument cut off her hand) 1 Peter 2:18-20 (slaves obey your masters even if they beat you) Deuteronomy 23:1 (if a man's genitalia is wounded or cut off he cannot enter into the congregation of the Lord) Isaiah 45:6-7 (god creates evil) 2 Kings 2:23-24 (god sent bears to kill 42 children...their crime? They made fun of Elisha's bald head) 1 Timothy 2:11-15 (women are to be silent and subject to men) Leviticus 21:17-24 (lame, those with flat noses, dwarves, people with scurvy, people with bad eyes, people with bad skin, and those that "hath their stones broken." Are not welcome with god Genital mutilation. In fact the only thing that stopped god from killing Moses was Moses' wife sliced off her son's foreskin. Exodus 4:24-26 Judges 11:29-40 Child sacrifice of Jephthah's daughter Exodus 11:5 all Egyptian first born children and animals killed Judges 14:19 god helped Samson murder and steal from 30 random men for a bet Samson lost Genesis 32:22-31 god wrestles jacob all night cannot beat him and god puts his hip out of socket Job 1 Satan tricks god into getting power over job, a good man, and Satan kills all of Job's children and animals, burns down his house, destroys his wealth, and then covers him in boils

[@gutgod-of6xk]

An extremely probable explanation for the empty tomb is that the Romans took the body. They alone had the ABILITY and powerful MOTIVATIONS to do the deed. Motivation #1 - THE ROMANS WANTED THE PRO-ROMAN MESSAGES OF JESUS TO CONTINUE. In contrast to all the other rabbis, Jesus taught the wish list of the Romans: Stop hating them, start sacrificially loving them, and pay all their unjust, burdensome taxes. Stealing the body caused the depressed disciples to believe the lie that Jesus rose, which invigorated them to excitedly spread Jesus' pro-Roman messages. Motivation #2 - THE ROMANS WANTED TO GET REVENGE ON THE RELIGIOUS LEADERS. During the trial of Jesus, the religious leaders humiliated Pilate by inciting a riot, forcing Pilate to crucify Jesus, whom he believed to be an innocent man. You can bet that revenge was big time on Pilate's mind. Stealing Jesus’ body was a great way for the Romans to stick it to the religious leaders, who would now have to deal with a "resurrected" false messiah. Remember, a reasonable naturalistic explanation negates a supernatural one.

[@TiffanyHarris323]

Does this count if you have blasphemed against the Holy Spirit? Can you still repent and be a believer and have forgiveness?

[@jonisland2350]

Yes and no. If you are even able to ask and want to repent from “blasphemy” you more than likely haven’t actually blasphemed anything. Blaspheming the spirit is when you ignore the Holy Spirits conviction over and over until your heart is so hardened that you can’t go back to God, not because He left but because you did. But if you feel that conviction, it’s not too late. Go to God.

[@Sinharvest]

Incorrect. Know the Word before you discourage someone. Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is not believing in the finished work of Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit. IE an atheist. Not believing in Christ as the Risen savior is the ONLY unforgivable sin.

[@NathanAMeyers]

Explosive power? - so like nuclear power, right? Hmm. Maybe that's why jesus' death was the only thing strong enough to allow god to work his magic. All the other blood sacrifices were too weak. God needed to harness the strong stuff.

[@Puppythuppa]

Far greater than Nuclear power if we comprehend the awesome Power of Resurrection.! 👉See Daniel12:1-3; 1Corinthians15;12-58; Philippians3:20-21.! 👈

[@lawrenceeason8007]

If this is all gods design, and if that design gave mankind all the tools for bad behavior, then blame the manufacturer. It is bad enough that a god would create people knowing that because his design would result in unspeakable pain and suffering...even for children and infants...and then to tack on eternal suffering as punishment for your design is just cruel. It doesn't make any sense, as so much of the bible doesn't.

*Whoever wants to be resurrected without the Crucifixion with Jesus , they are all idolaters who are burning for the salvation itself, not for Jesus Himself*

[@lawrenceeason8007]

What's bad about the bible: 1. The unspeakable immorality. 2. Putting the threat and fright of a hell in people's minds, especially kids. 3. The justification throughout history of committing unspeakable cruelty because a god said so....because the religion condones it. 4. The condemnation of people who just want to live their lives, like gay people. 5. The drumming into people's minds that they are wicked and unworthy...just like a bully. 6. Thought crime in the NT...which no doubt has the capability of screwing with people's minds and creating incredible guilt. 7. The condemnation of hell for petty things and for things that come naturally...such as sexual attraction toward someone Religion poisons the mind.
