-=| Bible confusion |=-
It is so amazing that I had just a day of bible study and it was over. My previous teacher was holding on to me for all my years in secondary school, all 5 years. I guess I can hold the Guinness Record for having the longest bible study duration before baptizing, and I do not know when would that be.
It was only till Saturday that I my eyes are really opened. According to Peifong is that the bible does not have all the facts and that it is having faith in believing the bible is truth. If the bible had all facts that ever happened, it is not faith that we believe in God. So is he saying that all devoted Christians are following a book of questions without any doubt?
The Adventists believe that Christians should not only read the New Testaments but also the old Testaments. I do not have any problem with Jesus' life, he is perfect, and i belive he is there.But when reading both old testaments and the New Testaments created more doubt in me.
In genesis Joseph who was a Jew married an Egyptian wife, but Jews should not marry gentiles during that time rite? And in the revelations it says about the yoke and the unequally yoke, so does it mean that at times laws are meant to be broken? At times rules and laws are not meant to be followed.
The Sons of Noah
18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.)
19 These were the three sons of Noah, and from them came the people who were scattered over the earth.
20 Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard.
21 When he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent.
22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father's nakedness and told his two brothers outside.
23 But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backwards and covered their father's nakedness. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father's nakedness.
24 When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him,
25 he said,
Cursed be Canaan!
The lowest of slaves
will he be to his brothers.
26He also said,
Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem!
May Canaan be the slave of Shem.
27 May God extend the territory of Japheth;
may Japheth live in the tents of Shem,
and may Canaan be his slave.
28After the flood Noah lived 350 years.
29 Altogether, Noah lived 950 years, and then he died.
In the story, which was a true-life account, above I feel that Noah was very blessed, after doing so many sins he could still live for so many years and go to heaven before everyone else. Just in the story above he drank wine and got drunk, in the bible the pastor said that there are 2 types of wine, normal grape juice and real fermented wine, Noah got drunk, which means he drank fermented wine. Lay naked and cursed his grandson who did not do anything, even then Ham asked his brothers for help, so I do not think he was wrong. Isn't this very unfair? Noah broke the 2 tablets of Ten Commandments, stroked the rock instead of speaking to the rock for it to give water to all the people of Israelites. He did all these and he just does not get to see the land of Canaan. I wish I would be like Noah, do whatever I want to do and go to heaven when I die, as not everyone goes to heaven after they die. I feel very afraid to help people after reading this pasage.
