- Cain murders Abel...God's response: protection. Wow.
- Sarai (at 80) was apparently a ravishing beauty desired by heads of state.
- I'm thinking that if Lot and Noah could do it over, they would be teetotalers.
- Abraham and his dad had already left their home and were moving towards Canaan when Abe got his marching orders.
- Moses' adopted uncle really got mad at him...tried to kill him.
- Aaron really looks like a meathead after the whole golden calf debacle...yet look at the means by which God sets him apart.
- Joshua started out as a man-servant.
- Looking for a wife...I triple dare you to try the Isaac approach to dating. Double dare you to try Jacob's. Why can't we just trust God to hook us up?
- Got questions about masturbation, safe-sex, or birth control? Swing by Genesis 38:9-10 and have a chat with God and Onan. I warn you, it is tough stuff. Matthew 10:37-39. God's ways are not our ways. How do we respond?
- Pharoah was one tough hombre! Stubborn, arrogant, and full of pride...but man was he tough. He went head to head with God and lasted 10 rounds. But it is quite apparent that God could have easily decimated him in the pre-fight announcements. Mysterious are His ways.
I have many questions about God's purposes, plans, methods, reasons. I pray and am hopeful that further immersion in His word will reveal truth and wisdom.
