When The Earth Vomits Out Its Inhabitants

Download or read book WHEN THE EARTH VOMITS OUT ITS INHABITANTS written by Victor Abassah and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this book is derived from the book of Leviticus, chapter 18 vs 24 & 25: Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you: and the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth our her inhabitants . Good readers of the Bible will notice that some expressions used in scripture would require spiritual interpretation before the message God is relaying through such expressions can be properly understood. The above scripture quoted from the book of Leviticus was talking about certain sins which the original inhabitants of the land of Canaan were committing for which they were being vomited out. In that same chapter 18, in the earlier verses before verse 24, these sins were listed. They ranged from all manner sexual sins to sins of idolatry and witchcraft. These sins will be examined in detail in subsequent chapters. The simple interpretation of the above scripture is this: The sins of the people defile the land, and God therefore punishes the land for their sins. But then the land refuses the punishment and therefore vomits out the perpetrators of such sins. There are so many strange things happening in our world today that are defying human explanations. Some of these we will be looking at in the light of the above quoted scripture. One thing about the word of God is that it never grows old and neither does it expire. The effect the word had in Biblical times is the same as today. Humanity has grown so much in terms of technological advancement that God and His word are becoming more and more unreal in their eyes. This book will attempt to offer explanations to why disasters happen in certain areas and in people s lives based on that statement in Leviticus 18 about the earth vomiting out a people from an area.

Download or read book The God of the Old Testament: Love or Vengeance? written by G. David Bedney and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why in the Old Testament God wiped out an entire population in a global flood except for one family? Or why, when giving the land of Canaan to the children of Israel, He commanded the destruction of the entire Canaanite nation? Does this sound to you like a loving God, or does He seem more like a vengeful tyrant or egomaniac, demanding service and worship? On the other hand, there’s the God of the New Testament—Jesus, the Messiah. He is loving and patient, caring and selfless—not at all like the God of the Old Testament, right? He even gave His life for the people He loves. So how do we reconcile this picture of God, as seen in the life of Jesus, with the picture of God in the Old Testament? Are there two different Gods? Or perhaps this shows two different sides of the same God—with the Old Testament displaying God’s justice and vengeance toward the sinner, while the New Testament shows His mercy and forgiveness. In this book, the author seeks to offer the reader an alternative perspective, one that is biblically and historically founded in recorded Old Testament events, revealing God’s unconditional love for His creation throughout the Old Testament. As we explore Old Testament stories, it should become quite clear that the God of the Old Testament is just as loving, patient, and longsuffering—if not more so—as the God of the New Testament, Jesus Christ Himself! As you review the evidence contained herein, you may be surprised that you come to the same conclusion, understanding the consistent and amazing love of God throughout the history…and the future of humankind.
