@MikeWingerii Because it doesn't rhyme. Duh.

[Solo Kristo @tipaye_bth]

Perhaps, turning the spotlight of critical reasoning inwards may reveal something uncomfortable about us.

[Solo Kristo @tipaye_bth]

We are often quick to dismiss or demonise expressions of worship we find unfamiliar, or we don't understand or like. Worse, we are seized with a twisted curiosity, not to know or understand, but for "evidence" in justifying our stance.

@realgreggd @MikeWingerii And He calls us to follow His example. To love our enemies, pray for our abusers. I wonder what if our Christian forbears had chosen Holy war? It would have been the blood of our enemies not of the martyrs that seeded the church, only it would no longer be the church.

@realgreggd @MikeWingerii Sudden, explosive, etreme violence. Very tempting "solution". I once looked around me and thought that's the only way to fix things. A revolution that wipes out the unjust and therefore their injustice.
But I serve a saviour who wins by dying for His enemies, not destroying them.

@bh98646 @MoreTwitty Chump change. I get it.

@TheRednartso @JustinPetersMin Don't fight me, I was agreeing with you. Pointing out the first part of the verse,
"I would that ye all spake with tongues". What follows does not negate that.
Also, I posted verse 39, but it seems to have vanished.

@TheRednartso @JustinPetersMin 1 Cor 14:39

Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues

@MikeWingerii Both!

@relativenightma @MikeWingerii Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? Far from it! For if a law had been given that was able to impart life, then righteousness would indeed have been based on law.
Galatians 3:21

[Solo Kristo @tipaye_bth]

@relativenightma @MikeWingerii Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
Romans 3:20

Dan 9:18b We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy.

I always knew Joseph’s brothers threw him in a well. What I never noticed was HOW he gets out of it.

In the Quran, a caravan comes by, a man lowers his bucket for water, and he accidentally finds Joseph down there. They take him and sell him as goods. Surah 12:19.

So in the Quran, Joseph is basically FOUND. Discovered by strangers.

Then I read Genesis, and the brothers are far guiltier.

Reuben throws him in an empty pit, planning to rescue him later. But while Reuben’s away, Judah looks at a passing caravan of Ishmaelite traders and says: why kill him? Let’s SELL him. And they do. For twenty pieces of silver. Genesis 37:26-28.

The brothers don’t lose Joseph to a passing stranger. They traffic him. They pocket the silver. It’s cold, deliberate, and damning.
Here’s what I kept circling back to.

The Bible makes the brothers MORE guilty, not less. It names Reuben. Names Judah. Names the price. Names the buyers. It refuses to soften what they did.

That’s not a book protecting its heroes.

That’s a book telling the brutal truth.

And here’s the detail that wrecked me.

Twenty pieces of silver. A brother, sold for silver, by Judah.

Fast forward 1,700 years. Another descendant of Judah is betrayed and sold. For thirty pieces of silver. By a man named Judas, which is just the Greek form of Judah. Matthew 26:15.

The “sold for silver” detail… It’s a thread.

And the Quran’s version, where Joseph is just accidentally found, snaps that thread.

I used to say the Bible was the corrupted book.

But the Bible kept the silver, kept the betrayal, kept the guilt, because it was all pointing forward.

Joseph sold for silver, betrayed by his brothers, descending into a pit, rising to save the very ones who betrayed him.

That was always a portrait of Jesus.

The Bible kept every ugly detail because every detail was a signpost.

And they all pointed to the cross and crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

@MikeBales Otterly despicable.

[Solo Kristo @tipaye_bth]

@JustinPetersMin There's a difference between asking a bot to write your sermon for you, and using it as a tool for sermon preparation.

[Solo Kristo @tipaye_bth]

@robert_kliemann @onlyskypace The real assumption here is that the line connecting the 2 parallel lines is perfectly horizontal.

[Solo Kristo @tipaye_bth]

@MikeWingerii Jumping straight to application without sound interpretation is very bad, but you've been posting without that context, and it's sounding like you're saying "application is bad", which would be bonkers.

See James 1:22-25
