I LOVE that scene. As theology goes, it’s almost as good as “Unforgiven.”

You're gonna have a lot of folks here who fail to see the humor in this.

Me? I've got tears of laughter running down my face! I'm reading this at work and everyone's asking me what's so funny?

Curious “Unforgiven”?

And pulp fiction though not in Scripture, did seem to catch some of the ideas in Ezekiel, meaning the Lord was tired of it and meant to clean house and YOU WILL KNOW THAT MY NAME IS THE LORD....

"Unforgiven" was a great movie about God's terrible swift sword.

"Deserves got nothing to do with it."

The epilogue which told us William Muny retired with his children and lived to a ripe old age after opening a dry cleaning business is poetry.

None of us knows another's heart, and "we all got it coming."

Thanks. I had the pleasure of seeing Sam live shortly before he left us. I was accompanied by my parents no less.

"Ezekiel, meaning the Lord was tired of it and meant to clean house and YOU WILL KNOW THAT MY NAME IS THE LORD...."

Thos should give all of us pause:

Ezekiel 9:4-7, "And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof. with the destruction of the rest And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity: Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men (the Elders) which were before the house. And he said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city."

I find it hard to take your otherwise well written post seriously (given the content and message) when I consider you didn’t even give basic literature etiquet to the Bible and capitalize the first letter.

I think showing Moses killing a guard wasn’t something to mourn, b/c the story goes on to show that God can still work with a man *even a murderer* to accomplish His Will.

“Would anyone honestly take this article to their Bible school class?”

The short answer? “Yes”

But that’s because I like my Faith with a little scrutiny.

Keeps me honest.

I can't believe they didn't mention Ezekiel 25:17...

I'm a unassuming conservative white guy...
but I still don't understand a "Best Actor" Oscar nomination for
John Travolta...
and "Best Supporting Actor" Oscar nomination for Samuel L. Jackson.

Those two nominations should have been switched round the other way.

Something really went wrong over at the Academy!

We like to think Elijah stood in front of the howling column of heavenly fire, straightened his robes, turned to the crowd and said, "Thus, my opponent's argument falls." Then, he finished the debate in the way that all debates should be finished: by having the losers slaughtered.

Ping!
