Mandii Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Just Thinking and Abigail....Both of your posts make sense and definitely are more rational than looking at the OT as being totally inspired by God but does the recording of the actions of the people. While we were taught that a host would go to great lenghts to protect his guests in that culture, we all know that there is something wrong with LOt's actions; I was heard a Rabbi tell that the culture of the city that Lot lived in perverted his judgment and decision making and thus why he offered his daughters as he did. Now that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustThinking Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Mandii, Great point. Even TWI taught that he was "vexed" or skewed. If that's the case then they should have also at least considered what you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustThinking Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Shaz, What do you think happened with Isaac? Do you think that's what God meant or do you think it was an "oops?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazdancer Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 I dunno, Thinking. I just don't get it that God Almighty can't seem to communicate in a way that loving, waiting children would understand. Still working on the logic of that. If I figure it out, I suppose I'll start my own denomination! :)--> Shaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
