RE: Lincoln's Christianity by Michael Burkhimer
Don't be too baffled by the Old Testament. it's just a bit more graphic about what happens when an individual or a nation decides to disobey God's word. (Especially the book of Judges)
It's kind of scary isn't it? The New Testament isn't any different in talking about the consequences of sin (disobeying God). The emphasis transitions from God's law, to God's way for you to live your life. From rules to daily lifestyle. (Of coarse there is more to it than that) but the consequences, good or bad, haven't changed. As Solomon said in Ecclesiastes 1:9 "What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun." So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in? |
