Safe-Keeper, Foster Zygote.
My relatives have had genocides happen to them in W.W.2 so don't give me any of your crap.
I don't condone the killing of any one and will still walk with God.
Do you really think the writers of the Biblical genocide tales would say "They were people pretty much like us; with the same sorts of hopes and fears, love of family etcetera. But we murdered every single one of them anyway"?
Have you read what their hopes were?
These were the equivalent of satin worshippers killing children and using their own as
sacrificial candles.and anyone elses child that they could get.
The Hebrews lived with them and visa-versa.
How do you miss that when that's what they did, they lived among them and when in a prior foreign land as slaves, they (some of the Hebrews) worshiped those same Gods.?
Then were punished the same way?
Judges 10: 6: And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him.
Numbers 25: 1: And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab. 2: And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods. 3: And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.
They weren’t immune,
Ancients were led by Satan to kill their children for personal convenience and gain, while engaging in promiscuity. Modern Baal worshipers-a.k.a. abortionists - have slaughtered millions for the same reasons. Do such abortionists care for the welfare of the mother? Do they warn of the increased risk of cancer? In fact they have tried to cover it up.
Seems to me that the liberals are doing the same thing today and allowing it to happen, and your picture is same thing that was happening then and now and will continue, for a time.
Not my doing and I still can’t judge the creator of the universe on his call.
The bottom line is that God kept his promise to Israel and no man or nation was to change those future events that where already in place.
Jesus when asked about the end times replied; it will be the same then as it was in Noah’s days.
This is being played out even now,(look around), and the other promise is that no nation will take their land is also prophesy. This we may witness soon and the results there after.
I believe these are the best defense:
· God's decision to judge the Amalekites came over 400 years after they had been warned.
· The call to wipe out the Amalekites was issued by God before Christ, during a time when God was protecting and preserving the Jewish people.
· Remember: God chose Abraham and promised that through his descendants he would bless the world.
· It is through the Jewish bloodline that Christ will be born; therefore, in the Old Testament we find God going to great lengths to preserve the bloodline
The last one is the most important and was played out all the way through Christ’s life. Herod comes to mind and kills his own set of people and children.
· This is one of the passages that critics turn to when they want to dismiss the Christian God as nothing more than a tribal war deity or argue that religion causes violence.
· By entering this discussion, we are asking God to justify his actions.
· It says something about us that we are more concerned with God's behavior than with our own—that we are judging him rather than worrying about him judging us.
32 Then Samuel said, "Bring me Agag king of the Amalekites."
Agag came to him confidently, [c] thinking, "Surely the bitterness of death is past."
33 But Samuel said,
"As your sword has made women childless,
so will your mother be childless among women."
And Samuel put Agag to death before the LORD at Gilgal.
Whose children? So who was attacking whom first and what were they promoting, “the Amalekites”?
Human sacrifice, sacrifice children by burning them to death, taking other peoples children when plundering.
Killing others children.
So what you say the Hebrew were did to the Amalekites they were doing it to children of the Hebrews along with their own child sacrifices to Baal..
Some of these pepole were assimilated into the Hebrew culture and redeemed themselves, repented. Some Hebrews did the same and assimilated in the other cultures.
So they where never totally wipe out.
·
Option Number Four is simply that the passage means what it says, and we just do not get it, because we look at things quite differently than God does.
· Our human view is that this life is more valuable than anything else—and that God somehow owes it to us.
· God's view is that all we are owed is punishment for our rebellion and selfishness—that life is a gift he can give or take; that he has authority over all things, including us; that he owns all things by virtue of the fact that he created them.
· Please understand: the issue of infants and children being killed in the battle is not the "take your breath away" issue here in the end, because I believe they go to be with God.
· In the case of the Amalekites—a culture that sacrificed their own children—I suspect that ending the life of those born there and ushering them into eternity was probably one of the most merciful things he could do.
25 Yet if you persist in doing evil, both you and your king will be swept away.
Before the battle you are talking about, this battle with the Philistine.
22 So on the day of the battle not a soldier with Saul and Jonathan had a sword or spear in his hand; only Saul and his son Jonathan had them.
So Saul’s son goes out to do battle on his own.
6 Jonathan said to his young armor-bearer, "Come, let's go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fellows. Perhaps the LORD will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few."
7 "Do all that you have in mind," his armor-bearer said. "Go ahead; I am with you, heart and soul."
8 Jonathan said, "Come, then; we will cross over toward the men and let them see us. 9 If they say to us, 'Wait there until we come to you,' we will stay where we are and not go up to them. 10 But if they say,
'Come up to us,' we will climb up, because that will be our sign that the LORD has given them into our hands."

11 So both of them showed themselves to the Philistine outpost. "Look!" said the Philistines. "The Hebrews are crawling out of the holes they were hiding in." 12 The men of the outpost shouted to Jonathan and his armor-bearer,
"Come up to us and we'll teach you a lesson."
So Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, "Climb up after me; the LORD has given them into the hand of Israel."
Israel Routs the Philistines
15 Then panic struck the whole army—those in the camp and field, and those in the outposts and raiding parties—
and the ground shook. It was a panic sent by God.
16 Saul's lookouts at Gibeah in Benjamin saw the army melting away in all directions. 17 Then Saul said to the men who were with him, "Muster the forces and see who has left us." When they did, it was Jonathan and his armor-bearer who were not there.
13 Jonathan climbed up, using his hands and feet, with his armor-bearer right behind him. The Philistines fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer followed and killed behind him. 14 In that first attack Jonathan and his armor-bearer killed some twenty men in an area of about half an acre. [a]
20 Then Saul and all his men assembled and went to the battle. They found the Philistines in total confusion, striking each other with their swords. 21 Those Hebrews who had previously been with the Philistines and had gone up with them to their camp went over to the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
46 Then Saul stopped pursuing the Philistines, and they withdrew to their own land.
47 After Saul had assumed rule over Israel, he fought against their enemies on every side: Moab, the Ammonites, Edom, the kings [h] of Zobah, and the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he inflicted punishment on them. 48 He fought valiantly and defeated the Amalekites, delivering Israel from the hands of those who had plundered them .
So you have a problem with God protecting the bloodline of Christ the redeemer?
Genocid is still going on, your picture proves that, the war in the Middle East proves that, the famine in the world is worst than ever.
War is a bad thing and it affects every one.
But like you say you would kill for your son.
), but there is always a sense of wishing I had more control to snap out of it at will.

! Your God divided oceans? Well, my God, Hope 60, one blew to pieces an entirely galaxy, strangled God to death, and made the universe end for then to restart it, all without us noticing. And you should've seen the miracles performed by his angels the Jannickes. They were the ones to build the fjords! People were there and saw it!
