Like i stated in my previous post i am reading through the bible. i am still in genesis and if i would have my computer right beside me as i was reading it i would have so many things to say because i have noticed a whole bunch of stuff that just makes me stop and ponder on it. i am going to try to remember some of the things that i wanted to write on here and that i thought about.
First of all Abraham totally says that Racheal is sister TWICE!. i could see him doing it once but he totally does it again. then his son does it also. i just laughed when i read that this morning. it is amazing how we don't learn from our mistakes.
Secondly i have found myself asking If God was only on Abraham's side? I ask this because that is the linage (sp?) that he used for Jesus and he says that he was but what about other people. does God love him better than the rest of his creation? Also if Abraham knew God was on his side why would he have to go and lie about racheal being his sister. i mean he has got the Creator of the world and everything in the world backing him up.
i don't know it just makes me think about so many things that i have to stop reading and just think about it.
Another thing is that God knew the Jacob was going to rule over Esau. Would you say that it was wrong of Jacob on how he went about getting the birth right? Wonder what God thought about that? these are the kind of things that confuse me because God knew it was going to happen and Jacob bribed Esau and even with rebekah and how she fooled Issac. Which i would think would be wrong and yet i feel like in God's mind it was all ok and that was the plan on how to get Jacob to rule over his brother. i don't know but it really confusing to me and just makes me think about it more and more.
k well i think i am done for now. i will blog more after i read some more.
