Quote:Your question seems to be: do prophets commit sins?
No, am talking about the morality, I don’t think that I will one day give those verses of (Incest) to my daughter to read. I don’t think that I will even give them to my wife to read. And I don’t know if you will give such verses to your household to read.
What I was trying to say here is, what is the moral that we can learn out of these stories??
Ok, to make it easy for you reep. Your Bible said:
All Scriptures is given by INSPIRATION of God, and it is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16
This is Pauls's second personal letter to his protege Timothy. The verse implies that if any scripture originates from God, it will prove profitable for.
1- Doctrine (TEACHING)
2- Reproof (for convicting, rebuking, for showing people what is wrong in their lives)
3- Correction (Useful for correcting faults)
4- Instruction unto righteousness ( for training and teaching how to live correctly)
The above for heading to categories God's word to be very reasonable.
Now Lot (whether he was a prophet or not) committed incest with his 2 daughters and God did not punish him at all. Now I would like to know, what is the moral that we learn from this story?? I say NO MORAL. So it is immoral.
Also Judah, commits incest with Tamar and begets twins who are honored to become the great grandfathers of the only "begotten son of God".. I ask again. What is the moral? NO moral.
Under what heading will you now put these stories???
Doctrine, reproof, correction or instruction unto righteousness????
