[Vision2020] Heirdoug's hero

[debismith at moscow.com]

And I pray to my diety that the brain surgery works---less and less sense seems to be  
generated from the keyboard at the Lemeno address. If the rambling and unconnected 
references cease, it will have been a success!

Ralph I did read carefully.

You seem to think that by pointing out the sins of another that I will
be shamed and embarrassed by what the Spirit of the Living God states
in the Bible. I will never be embarrassed by all of what God says, be
they red or black letters.

 From the genealogy in Matthew we see that God is not embarrassed
 either 
using David’s sins to bring about the redemption of Mankind…
“The record of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son of David,
the son of Abraham: … Jesse was the father of David the king. David
was the father of Solomon by Bathsheba who had been the wife of
Uriah.”

And now the passage that you cited: "After He had removed him, He
raised up David to be their king, concerning whom He (God) also
testified and said, 'I HAVE FOUND DAVID the son of Jesse, A MAN AFTER
MY HEART, who will do all My will.”

But you stopped short, as you typically do, from quoting the rest of
the verse… “From the descendants of this man, according to
promise, God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus”.

You should always quote all of the verse in it’s context and not be
so embarrassed by the truth that God's Word gives!

lemeno, Doug!

The biblical character King David is often
represented as a great Bible hero.

* God said, "I have found David the son of
Jesse a man after mine own heart" (Acts 13:22).
* "My lord the King [David] ...is as an angel
of God" (2 Sam 19:27).
* "My lord [King David] fighteth the battles
of the LORD, and evil hath not been found in thee
all thy days" (1 Sam. 25:28).
* "King David did that which was right in the
eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any
thing that he commanded him all the days of his
life save only in the matter of Uriah the
Hittite" (1 Kings 15:5).

But let’s look at some of the things King David
did:

* He was really good at killing people (1
Sam. 18:7).
* King David committed unprovoked aggression
and mass killing of men and women (1 Sam. 27:8-11).
* He exposed himself like a pervert (2 Sam. 6:20).
* He hamstrung over 1,000 horses (2 Sam. 8:4b).
* He impregnated another man's wife (2 Sam. 11:2-5).
* He arranged for a man to be killed in battle so he
could have his wife (2 Sam. 11:14-17).
* He sent seven of Saul's descendants to be
impaled as human sacrifices to Yahweh God (2 Sam. 21:1-9).

As a Bible hero, David is often given as an example of someone
to look up to. Would you want to identify with him?

Read the Bible carefully, it’s not what you have been told it is.
