Infact that is the intention of the #evilone... 'He looms the earth looking souls to devour just as a lion does look for foo...' Satan always waits for us to ... from God then he 'kidnaps, devour & kill ... '...he comes to steal, kill and destroy...' '...if there is anything that saddens God is a lot soul...' '... He Has Given us the will to choose good and evil...' from the times of Eden when 1st Man went against God's Guide...
Not enough people understand what human behavior/psychology really is, this story is a perfect example of what humans do if left to our own devices. That is why it is so crucial for each and every one of us to choose to live under God's will and help our fellow man to do that same!
Yes, but which God, there are so many. Or which devil, there are lots of those too. You say we should live under God’s will, but I have no faith in the bombastic sentiments of the men who claim to know the will of God. Why would I ever submit myself and my eternal soul to some other dude who read an old book written by goat herders in the Bronze Age who didn’t know why the sun came up? And from an ethics perspective, the Abrahamic tradition has been weighed and measured and found wanting. I’ll look elsewhere, thank you.
When there is "no king" to enforce the law, people will fall into depravity. This occurs many decades after Sodom and Gomorrah, yet it happened in Israel again! When people do what they think is right and not obey the law, it leads to depravity, and eventually destruction. Every civilization that has fallen has embraced Sodomites. The Benjaminite's are Blessed because they survived, and more, they actually became one of the tribes that Jesus came from. Jesus is from the Tribe of Judah without a doubt, but john the baptist his cousin was from the tribe of Levi. So it is my belief that Jesus through His geneology is of each tribe, by different relatives. Thus Jesus came from the tribe of Benjamin as well.
We have laws today but they are a total ass - too many people not getting the punishment they deserve for their crimes in most cases today the judges are far too lenient
I read this again four days ago. This time I was really disturbed by this incident but then GOD talked to me in my heart, bad choices and bad decisions always have some very bad consequences. So, before we make any decision we should keep it before GOD LORD in prayer and HE will listen and answer our prayers in JESUS'S name.
Jesus but your separating Jesus from the God being made into man ? Trintarians are doing this to this day . Could it be it’s coming to a point that all the people who believe Jesus is God seperate from these Trinitarians who teach paganism and God has a Father ? So who is the Holy Spirit mother goddess 😝
I think the Mormons might be on this but the Roman Catholics seem to be going more and more towards this . 8 tell you the truth anyone who claims Jesus is not God is teaching what the pagans teach .
Kari Jobe Church all these Christian Artist hill song teaching Jesus is Seperate from the father you are just teaching what the ancient Greeks taught .
I am reading the Bible in a year. this was such a shocking story, but then while this is happening, the story of ruth and Boaz is also happening. God always had a plan of salvation, in the mess
Of course thats not a good one. Thats the point. God showed how deep and evil our sin is. No one is good. Only Jesus. He endured suffering in this life too. God the father didnt keep him from mens evil or change his mind to not let his son suffer on the cross for all this evil WE created. Her suffering was terrible. ALL suffering is evil but God didnt choose that for this world...man did. At least if she was saved she was out of pain and God will wipe away her tears from it...she can be restored only through Jesus's salvation. Salvation is being saved from sin which is what all of this was.❤ hope you see Jesus as the answer not the problem.@loveispatientloveiskind2205
@@Chickabee-Hill-Farm Yes it's a typical attitude to put the blame on God for the responsibility of human atrocities. It's part of our inner journey on earth to get restored through what Jesus accomplished on the cross. The human natural mind cannot perceive the reality & identity of sin. A person is able by himself to find out the existence of God ; but can only be pulled out of the darkness and saved by the grace of God.
Thank you for this revealing video! *You can choose your sin but you can't choose your consequences* powerful and most of these consequences are being felt many generations post our forbearers. What happened in Judges 19 and what we are witnessing in our civilized era is about the same. ALOT of evil atrocities are being committed to girls, women, boys, men etc sexual immorality everyday everywhere. Reading it from the Bible only buttresses "the heart of humans can be desperately wicked" NOTHING to do with our Holy God. We need to be well informed when we read the Bible these sins will never be hidden. People murder and cut a fellow human into pieces and place them in refrigerators etc May God continue to show us all His unfailing mercy and forgiveness. Amen
I remember hearing this story! I was sleeping, let the Bible app read the Bible to me. Woke up in the dark, eyes widened, shook!, staring at the ceiling shocked, and scared! I had to check to see wth I was listening to! Like, did the app start reading something else?! The crazy part is, I know I read this story when I was younger (21-25) ‘cause I wanted to read the whole Bible at least once. How did I miss/forget it!? Holy Spirit /God or minds, etc. Whatever will shield us and protect us from things until the right time. Or, it's the enemy stealing the word from us. IDK, I just wish I read it/listened/learned the lessons of it more. I'm going to read it/listen to it this week, thanks! Cause this story, is the real world baby!
I remember this story you don’t just read a chapter but the whole thing! And that’s why you see all the horror today no real Justice or honor! You can’t cancel God, he will cancel all you who hate him! Get ready people our King is coming! Hallelujah!
Coming? Long overdue. His time isn't our time? That's really a joke. So he preferred to b sadistic by continuing to enjoy watching us suffer while evil reighns supreme? So his time is to enjoy all that until such time he is very satisfied? That's cruel. Then by that it means time is more superior than him since he has to b subjected to time?
No, God is not willing that any should perish but is long suffering toward all men patiently waiting for Mankind to turn themselves over to HIM. But mankind refuses to do so and therefore suffers because mankind is rebellious, hard hearted, they follow a false God, Satan who loves to have it so.
This looks like a evil AI post . How does this story relate to AI ? Sadly there are those that think they can condom the actions or inaction’s based on their wicked value systems of man. May you be broken of these ways and find your way to the Father. Learn what happened to those that murmured against out Father in the wilderness.
Thank you dear.. There's nothing more superior than our God the creator of heaven and earth, not time, just nothing, so be careful of what you think about God. AI.

In those days, if you had a traveler staying under your roof, you were responsible for their wellbeing, including their lives.This is why no one took them in. Because the people knew the moral depravity of the men in the town and didn't want to be on the receiving end of their wrath.
@@heavynetwork6804 Yes, the narrator has his own agenda. He said nothing about how sodomy is the greater sin... he's more worried about normal kids jacking it instead.
Much of society would agree with you. I say is a example of a society without the holy spirit. Same thing. different perspective. One from fear to control. The other results in liberty.
Best message on here America is going in the exact direction, I read this story and never had heard any preacher and anyone talk about this because all thy do is talk about Paul and Moses and the exact same people. I guess they're too lazy to study deeper. There many more stories that most people hardly every know about or talk about.
Compare the US to, say, Norway, which now is pretty much a 'godless nation'. And yet has no homelessness, excellent health care and public services, very little crime, and a social safety net. The majority of americans 'identify' as christians, with 'extreme' christians topping the list and yet take a look at it. What anybody would tell you is the atheism of norway is far prefereable to the christianity of the US. Even the most christian in the US will deny that people even have the RIGHT to housing or healthcare despite living in the richest country in the world.
@@mikearchibald744 When the mark of the beast comes fully because we're somewhat in it now, he'll come with a White Horse meaning deception and most people are ibeing deceived. It's called deception because you're not aware that you're in it. God said that he would send a spirit of elution that they may believe the lie because they rejected the truth. Of course the mark of the beast will not bother with the one's that follow his plain or worship him. The Christians in America are not the same as those in the pass, because they have became materialistic just like the world, and are comfortable, because of ther education, and good jobs, On top of that, Leadership plays a big part in our the people will be. It's said in the Bible like priest like people but they have to like them. Not to mention serving God is an individual thing and many will be called but few will be chosen. Anyone can say there're a christian and many people have their view of what that is. Moreover, you know a tree by the fruit and what ever you call yourself you most be Holy. This does not mean and I didn't say perfect, but moving and growing into perfection year by year and dying daily of the flesh. You can have a house and a car and go straight to hell because hell will be full with people that have houses and cars and lands and what ever. Even the devil told Jesus if you bow down and serve me I'll give you all of this. Repent and be baptized the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost Act 2:38 and Acts 19
If I understand scripture correctly (I have only just finished reading judges for the first time) but from what I understand god wants us to always go to him when we are looking to make decisions as god knows what will be and can tell us how to act, and when we act on our own without god things never go as expected as we cannot always see the consequences of those actions which leads to down the path of destruction.
This is what happens when everyone does what is right in their own eyes. Wickedness is in the heart of humanity. This is what happens when everyone has their own truth. There is only one truth and that is the Word of God. Without God, we have no moral compass and we are all monsters.
How Jesus will have a mercy on you ? With what and why ? If a Jesus is a God and he created all things and nothing was and is created without him, then he created not even that men but the situation in which all of those people in story happen to find themselves.
@@ydlbm No we dont have any free will. You on daily basis find yourself in situations when you got insufficient sensory inputs and fall, or get hit , not by your will or freewil but becasue your sensory inouts were insufficient or/and your system like brain evalute them wrongly and thats why you fall or get hit or so call making a mistakes. And it is the same with evaluation of narration when information are said. Then your system evaluating this and mage a "judgement" and you can be right or wrong.. And basically a God is punishing you for that , that your system make a wrong evaluatin which was based maybe on little inputs or just your system miscalculated . Anyway it is only your mistake, not a free will. And for this you will be tortured forever ?
As a woman, this is one story which struck me the hardest, and I can never forget it, nor even understand it. Why this man would give these depraved men his own concubine? Why? And then the next morning, he expected her to get up as if nothing had happened! Only to discover she was dead. And then make a fuss about it enough to even go to war with the tribe of Benjamin. Really really a sad event.
It is tragic, but she wasn't all innocent. She was a whore to him scripture says an and left 4 months. Probably continuing in whoredom. When i read it first time it does sound very cold of him towards his concubine when he told her to get up and found her dead. They obviously weren't talking much and she probably didnt want to go but being forced. As sad as it is, the larger picture is the actions of the wicked men of tribe of benjamin in the city and what happened. The reason he cut her up and sent her body parts to the other tribes was to rally them and cause them to come down and punish that tribe...
Not just sad. Disgusting, extremely chauvinistic and abusive. She'd already left the man for her father's house probably for good reason. There must be more to it than that. The father tried to put the man off to prevent his taking the woman back but perhaps the husband threatened him. It's an excerpt from early Jewish history but shouldn't be taken as, an example of anything spiritual. I'm an archaeologist and I'd simply view it objectively and not try to justify it
Pre meditation, remember God knows what we are thinking before we make our choices. And we have to suffer for our choices now and back then. God be with us all. In Jesus name. Our second chance in everlasting life. Amen
I have lived this story. The first time I read this story many years ago it broke my heart. But this story showed the husband was a coward. And the father who was willing to allow his own virgin daughter to be raped as well was a coward too. Seeing the way this man treated his wife it's no wonder why she wanted to leave him. Her husband was a jerk. All I could see when I initially read that story was how weak those two particular men were. If someone doesn't understand my comment chances are, they have never been raped.
(14:58) The conclusion about everyone doing what’s right in their own eyes is both frightening and insightful. It’s a fitting end to such a troubling story. Without a moral compass or accountability, we see how far a society can drift-and this story pushes us to examine our own moral grounding and sense of justice.

Thank you for posting your message on this particular passage. This is one of the passages from the Bible that I see pastors from churches that I have attended skip over. So thank you again, God bless you.
Lord, open my eyes to the needs of those around me, and inspire me to serve others with compassion and generosity. Show me how I can use my time, talents, and resources to make a positive difference in the lives of others, especially the marginalized and vulnerable.
I hope this prayer of yours opens things up and brings to you the awesomeness a similar Prayer of mine has for me these last several years. Was Goin through the worst 5 years of my life where everything I touched seemed certain to fail and no matter how many times I prayed nothing seemed to change. Then bout as broken as I've ever been I prayed out forgive my selfishness I'll trust you to make the changes and open the doors I need but until then let me never fail to see those you've placed in my path throughout the day that you've intended me to be the tool that answers their prayers and never let me fail to see a task that you placed me down here on this earth to do. And seemed almost before I knew it once my prayers turned to what I needed to what I could do to help others in theirs all of those things I'd been defeated and beaten down in started turning around almost too fast to keep up with.
I am glad to read this story because it bothered me very much over the years, since I read it while I was in High School, and I am a grandma now. I have been looking for an answer over the years. Thank you for the discussion.
God so loved this world he gave his only son whoever believes in him shall not be perished but have an everlasting life.God forgive our sins now and the past he does not remember .I keep my fellowship closer with christ,praise him and thank him for what he has done for us
Jesus Christ went to the cross and now lives to set sinful us free from death and eternal condemnation. Repent and turn your heart to Him before it's too late. If He's calling your heart today, say yes! But count the cost--it will cost you everything, but the rewards are real and worthy.
Amen and I am dealing with those consequences of my bad decisions even after I repented of them. We DO reap what we sow but God is with me now and helping me. Thank you and God bless you too!
What a loving God We have, when we repent and come back to God. He forgives our sins and accepts us. I am a converted Christian from Hindu (India). I know what it means.
🌟🙏 From hopelessness to redemption, Jesus' love was my saving grace. His mercy lifted me from the depths of despair, setting me on a path of restoration and renewal. Grateful for His unending love and boundless compassion!
EXACTLY. In both the cases of Sodom and Gomorrah and what happened in the Tribe of Benjamin, it was the alphabet mafia that was roving the cities, seeking male visitors to gang rape into oblivion. In both stories, the cities not only allowed it, but fully backed it. As horrific as what happened to the concubine was, the REAL story is that the tribe of Benhamin went to war with their brothers to PROTECT those MONSTERS. It was a direct comparison to Sodom and Gomorrah that God Destroyed, and showed ONCE AGAIN what happens when you allow the alphabet depravity to be normalized in your society. It will ALWAYS lead to not just this level of depravity, but violent carnage. We now have an entire month, dedicated to the pride of the alphabet mafia. It is absolutely forbidden to criticize them in ANY way. And yes, they ARE coming after our kids. They've falt out admitted it. THEY will be the ones to legalized pedophilia. The P was always the goal to add to the alphabet soup. NAMBLA has marched in their pride parades since the 80's!
God hates Sin !... We learn over and over again that Sin is not welcome in God's will for us. He will punish sinners. Because He knows what is good for us. Love's us and wants us to do what is Good. Just like the story of the poor woman that ate her own baby.... Also such a horrific story.
God saw you as worthy before you was born, in fact over 2000 years ago He sent His son to die for you personally to pay the legal debt owed as a consequence of your (our) sin, If you put your trust in Jesus you are forgiven it is done, as a response you are to turn away from living a sinful life and aim to be like Christs example. Find a good bible teaching church to learn and grow as a CHristian and know there is NO comdemation in CHrist. May God bless you.
I remember reading this story the 1st time. I was so angry. So enraged. I argued with God and everyone who would listen. My heart was broken and I was angry with EVERYONE in this story. It was perhaps days or weeks after that my brother pointed out some of the same lessons you did here. It took a while to understand the value of this story being shared in the Bible.
The church should teach all the words of the Bible but they won’t. Many stories in the book that will never be preached because it’s not good for business. People need to understand all of the Bible not just the loving parts.
The "Church" is a creation of man started with Ignatius, when he declared him self the first Bishop with the authority of our savior Yahshua. Everything comes from out Father YHWH Elohim. Expect nothing from the "Church" Br like the wise virgins. Shalom.

Thankyou for clarifying, I couldn't understand why the woman was cut up into 12 pieces before because I was so stunned by the whole thing. I really appreciate clarifying the situation I couldn't understand before what the point was of having such a horrific account in the Bible. Like the whole thing was just too shocking for me to get my head around. It still is shocking but now I get why its there and the point of it and the lesson in it.

I had a dream where there was a river of people. This river lead to a place of fire and lava. There was weeping and gnashing of teeth. They didn’t know what was to come some didn’t care and some didn’t believe what was to come. There was also a narrow path that lead to an unassuming door that once opened lead to a beautiful bright and glorious place. Yet the people that went through that door didn’t care about the people in the river, except one man. He left the wonderful place and tried to bring others with him. Most people didn’t listen but he tried. Then I woke up to a voice in my head saying which one are you. I wept out of anger at myself and the other who didn’t care about the people in the river. So which one are you.
@@ArmOr_of_the_Alpha_and_Omega I should say not all dreams are like that, but it does happen. I had a few dreams where there was a blizzard in July and the whole earth was covered in snow. And comets and asteroids were destroying the earth. Christians were in hiding because the government wanted to kill them all
Interesting dream. The Buddha experienced this in the Hell Realm. You have to wake up and feel compassion (bodhicitta) for the souls that are suffering and turn back and try to ease the suffering of those who are in great pain. That is how you rise to the next level and eventually reach Liberation. The fact that you "witnessed" this process in a dream speaks volumes about you and is a great sign.
sodom an gomorah is no different, why slay a whole city, so the family can escape to a cave with the daughters. its not making any sense at all, as too Moses an the children of God going through places , they killed men women and children as they passed thru their cities taking their live stock an grains. its no wonder people want to be away for any religion.
We are said to be God's creations. And we think so little of his creations. Humanity itself. Much as Satan did. Was it Satan that said, humans was a mistake, and not worthy of the gift of a soul and free will? If humanity acts, worst than animals, without law, while knowing that we should know better and could do better on our own, what does that say about humans in general? In the end, was Satan right all along?
Wonderful made up story! Yahweh's great love for woman fun fact. Little wonder that women have been brutally beaten down for centuries with exclamations from men proclaiming happiness at not being born a woman! Amazing that most Christians readily make excuses for God's sick behavior .
the Levite was a COWARD of a man, angry brutish. He CLEARLY didn't treat her with respect and love, that's why she left him and returned to her father's house., she was right to have done so, and if she hadn't gone back with him the horrific fateful events would not have fallen on her. As a husband he should have protected her at all costs, and fought for her till death, but the useless Levite not only abused her himself when she was with him, but let other wicked men do much worse, The poor poor poor girl! The very first Levi, who was the 3rd son to Jacob, was among the brethren who plotted to kill his brother Joseph, and before that this Levi along with Simeon, murdered all the men of Shechem. Jacob even said that they troubled him and caused his name to stink among the inhabitants of the city.
No, she left him to go whoring around. He was the one that went to her to woo her back. His cowardice wasn't the lesson. There is a MUCH darker and horrific lesson, that WE are not only failing to learn in our society but going head long into it. The alphabet mafia ALWAYS devolves into this: not just depravity, but carnage. They did it in Sodom and Gomorrah and now even in Israel, and the entire tribe of Benjamin was willing to go to war against their brothers, to DEFEND these monsters. THAT'S the lesson. And yet, guess what month we are in now? They proudly proclaim they are coming for our children and even now, if you DARE criticize them in ANY way, you are DONE! RUINED. A guy is going to be thrown in jail for merely doing a burnout on a flag painted on the street. The day will come, if we don't put a stop to it, that these stories will play out over and over, and ANYONE daring to get upset with what they do to their victims will be arrested.
this is why we don't destroy history... we need to learn from it. we've done pretty good in the last Millinia but we're started to head backwards again.
Our God is faithful in this past 4+ years of fidelity 'it took God through his holy sovereign spirit to teach me that im valuable to him in his eyes: And our Bodies is his temple : know Holy Spirit is a judge: So when you repent and trun from your sins"' thank you for posting this and a awesome lesson thank you!
yes. this is the most disturbing part of the Bible I have ever read when I first went through it. it was similar when two Men came for Lot and his daughters and wife, when people in sodem wanted to know (as to rape) the two Men sent by God. Lot offered his daughters to the people, but they demanded for the two Men from God. the Men refused to allow Lot to give up his daughters on their behalf. Lot, his daughters and wife left sodom, and then God destroyed the evil city.
The first bad decision was made by the Levite when he gave her up. And another when he murdered and mutilated her and suddenly played victim. I am saddened by the conflict between the effort he seemed to make to get her back and how he gave her up so easily. What a man 😢
The woman is already dead or close to dead after what those r*pist did to her all night though... Still, what that evil Levite did is just horrendous and so evil. You don't chopped up your woman, fed it to your fellow people around you and played the victim card right after... That Levite and the old man is as much evil as those r*pist people... Both are bunch of evil individuals and the poor woman had to suffer because of them
@@michaelicornelius Concubines weren’t real wives. They were secondary and basically prisoners used to make babies and satisfy the lust of their “husbands”. They wanted more kids to make themselves richer by having more laborers. The ladies were left alone most of the time and used and abused by the “husband” and real wife. This monster tracked her down, stole her from her family, just to throw her out because he was a coward. He cared nothing for her. It was a disgusting, disrespectful, abusive life for these poor ladies. God never intended for man to treat women in this manner.
Thank God for this video and the strong message! All the hard work that is put in to make this video I pray that God touches broken hearts, people who are undergoing the consequences find Grace and not make bad decisions! Amen!
The more we drift away from God, the more we come a wild human can you say. We become without love and there it start all. We turn to satan. We are nothing about God, realy nothing.😢
This is despicable. I just can’t fathom how God was more concerned about these horrible people finding wives than the women they tortured. Going to have to pray about this.
The closer we draw to God, the more sensitive we become to sin. We see how unholy we are in comparison to a Holy God. And YHWH deserves better. Follow Yeshua.
How about the genocides of the Midianites, Amalekites and Canaanites? It seems God, as depicted in the book, is a murderer. He is omnipotent, so he could solve problems in a million different ways that don't require killing anyone. The fact he chooses to kill means he wants to kill. God, in the bible, is a murderer.
My first thought was that it very closely parallels the story of Lot, when a mob comes to his house and demand they "know" the men God sent to save Lot. Lot offers his daughters to the mob.
@@RobotsandMonsters Poor women had no respect back in the day. The men were supposed to protect the women - but this Levite priest and Lot failed - miserably!! Thank God Joseph was not like that toward Mary. Jesus would have had a horrific childhood if it were so.
You admit to getting angry, is that Righteous? Does that reflect the gifts of the Ruach Ha'Qodesh ? Have you learned nothing from this teaching but to react as the people did at the time? Humm
The only problem I had with this story is the presenter is claiming the lack of a king was part of the problem in terms of accountability. No!! You were held accountable by the very name of the book. In fact God didn’t want them to have a king. That was pagan nations ideology. ‘Both Samuel and Yahweh were greatly offended by Israel's request for a king, viewing it as people's rejection of them. Despite his displeasure with the people, God still told Samuel to accede to their demand but warn them about the grievances that kingship would bring (1 Sam 8:4-9).’ I wouldn’t trust anything this site has to offer. Bcuz if it can mislead in one area, it can mislead in another.
Very true and because we "VOTE" every couple of years we elect our law givers. Those are our idols and gods. Because of this this nation is under a curse.
That is crazy ! We are meant to vote for people whom we think are most likely to run the country wisely, and if they don't, we should vote them out next time. They are not idols or gods but fallible human beings, we should not be worshipping them. We are to worship only Yahweh.
agree with the part that YHVH doesn't like the idea of Israel having a king, but in the period of book of judges, even no prophet of God shown up to guide the Israelite. so, from my understanding, that's why the book of judges frequently highlight : no king at that time, people doing what's right according to themselves ; Israel people need a guide / king, just like Moses & Aaron had done with them before.
I greatly appreciated the non-biased and un-extreme nature of this entire post. As a newly converted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (and, also, a mature female), I get it, and I appreciate the mind expansion.
Please take a very close look at what you have actually submitted to in your conversion. Ask Jesus to show you truth and stick very close to him and not to a religious order. That religious order will not save you nor can it. It is not possible. Be very careful it could cost you eternally.
Wow, people are horrific...."one bad decision often leads to another". This is a warning that will spare you much suffering. Youll never experience true grief until youve felt the grief of betraying your own soul and, therefore, the very Author of Life (to whom you owe EVERYTHING to, quite literally). No wonder why God doesnt trust us if we deny Him and lean on our own understanding, deceiving ourselves and being blind of discernment. That makes total sense. If we betray, why would be be loyal to Him? We need to give it all to Him. 100%, forever.
At 15:30 in the video you indicate that except for those that committed the sinful acts the Benjamanite people were blameless, but they protected the wrong doers and in chapter 20 verses 13 and 14 the tribe of Benjamin chose their fate.
The video is very informative and is well appreciated. It is clear to me now that the Joseph in the old testament is the adoptive father of Jesus, and the husband of Mary. Thank you.
How so, that Joseph from Old Testament is the one who got sold by his brothers and became King of Egypt... That is different from Jesus Christ human father who is an ordinary carpenter...
Is this not the same problem repeated. Adam never protected Eve instead he blamed her and she blamed the devil. Another one who once again taveled miles to get his wife but was more than willing to use her to survive. He did not protect what GOD has given him as women are a gift to GOD.
You are wrong. Adam knew what God told them. He knew that they will die if they ate or touch the forbidden fruit. Do you know what pushes him to ate that fruit? Love. He loved his wife more than God that he turned to take the consequences of disobeying the Lord. He dont want Eve live and leave alone the garden of eden. Thats the truth. He protected her by following his desires over obeying God.
The man was not willing to give her concubine, he's been forced to, because homosexuality is against the law, so he tried to avoid the benjamites to commit that sin, and he never imagine that those men will kill his concubine.

But you didn't even notice that this is a complete deviation from the Bible story with many false hoods?
This one struck home for me.
@@tiannasspot there is so much false religion. It doesn't seem like people really care about what the truth is at all if you noticed that?
The phrase that struck me profoundly was, "You can choose your sin, but you cannot choose your consequences."
@socmedYtubeblasphemy
Right?
❤
You should know the consequences for your actions. It's all about the risk you are willing to take responsibility for.
Yes it stood out to me as well
Not enough people understand what human behavior/psychology really is, this story is a perfect example of what humans do if left to our own devices. That is why it is so crucial for each and every one of us to choose to live under God's will and help our fellow man to do that same!
From a distance
In many cases, very true. @@chaimomma9198
Yes, but which God, there are so many. Or which devil, there are lots of those too. You say we should live under God’s will, but I have no faith in the bombastic sentiments of the men who claim to know the will of God. Why would I ever submit myself and my eternal soul to some other dude who read an old book written by goat herders in the Bronze Age who didn’t know why the sun came up? And from an ethics perspective, the Abrahamic tradition has been weighed and measured and found wanting. I’ll look elsewhere, thank you.
@@Darrellychs There is only one TRUE God!
@@Darrellychs Please elaborate on the Abrahamic tradition that you find fault with. I'm curious.
This story also closely resembles Lot welcoming the two angels who were sent to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19
That's exactly what I was thinking!
When there is "no king" to enforce the law, people will fall into depravity. This occurs many decades after Sodom and Gomorrah, yet it happened in Israel again! When people do what they think is right and not obey the law, it leads to depravity, and eventually destruction. Every civilization that has fallen has embraced Sodomites. The Benjaminite's are Blessed because they survived, and more, they actually became one of the tribes that Jesus came from. Jesus is from the Tribe of Judah without a doubt, but john the baptist his cousin was from the tribe of Levi. So it is my belief that Jesus through His geneology is of each tribe, by different relatives. Thus Jesus came from the tribe of Benjamin as well.
Yes that's true, when the story begins I thought it was the same as that of lot's
Lot had a lot of nice time to big he two daughter belly! Women purpose in life is to protect man's seed and them bt!😂
Yeah, it’s another repeated pattern of scripture.
The more you read it, the more you’ll see it.
We are living that era now…
because of the presence of anti christ.
We have laws today but they are a total ass - too many people not getting the punishment they deserve for their crimes in most cases today the judges are far too lenient
Benjamin Netanyahu another benjaminite at least in character
Identity of different genders are adding more Antichrist to our world…
so who do you know that offers his own daughter to be raped?
I read this again four days ago. This time I was really disturbed by this incident but then GOD talked to me in my heart, bad choices and bad decisions always have some very bad consequences. So, before we make any decision we should keep it before GOD LORD in prayer and HE will listen and answer our prayers in JESUS'S name.
Who are you saying made the "bad choice" or "bad decision" in this story?
Who made the bad choice here?
Jesus but your separating Jesus from the God being made into man ? Trintarians are doing this to this day . Could it be it’s coming to a point that all the people who believe Jesus is God seperate from these Trinitarians who teach paganism and God has a Father ? So who is the Holy Spirit mother goddess 😝
I think the Mormons might be on this but the Roman Catholics seem to be going more and more towards this . 8 tell you the truth anyone who claims Jesus is not God is teaching what the pagans teach .
Kari Jobe Church all these Christian Artist hill song teaching Jesus is Seperate from the father you are just teaching what the ancient Greeks taught .
Jesus is the lamp on my feet and light of my path. Amen.
I am reading the Bible in a year. this was such a shocking story, but then while this is happening, the story of ruth and Boaz is also happening. God always had a plan of salvation, in the mess
So what was salvation for the concubine, cut into 12 pieces... is that one that u think is good too?
Of course thats not a good one. Thats the point. God showed how deep and evil our sin is. No one is good. Only Jesus. He endured suffering in this life too. God the father didnt keep him from mens evil or change his mind to not let his son suffer on the cross for all this evil WE created. Her suffering was terrible. ALL suffering is evil but God didnt choose that for this world...man did. At least if she was saved she was out of pain and God will wipe away her tears from it...she can be restored only through Jesus's salvation. Salvation is being saved from sin which is what all of this was.❤ hope you see Jesus as the answer not the problem.@loveispatientloveiskind2205
same! i read it in BiOY too!
@@Chickabee-Hill-Farm Yes it's a typical attitude to put the blame on God for the responsibility of human atrocities. It's part of our inner journey on earth to get restored through what Jesus accomplished on the cross.
The human natural mind cannot perceive the reality & identity of sin. A person is able by himself to find out the existence of God ; but can only be pulled out of the darkness and saved by the grace of God.
The god of the old testament is a cruel ogre
Thank you for this revealing video! *You can choose your sin but you can't choose your consequences* powerful and most of these consequences are being felt many generations post our forbearers. What happened in Judges 19 and what we are witnessing in our civilized era is about the same. ALOT of evil atrocities are being committed to girls, women, boys, men etc sexual immorality everyday everywhere. Reading it from the Bible only buttresses "the heart of humans can be desperately wicked" NOTHING to do with our Holy God. We need to be well informed when we read the Bible these sins will never be hidden. People murder and cut a fellow human into pieces and place them in refrigerators etc May God continue to show us all His unfailing mercy and forgiveness. Amen
I read this myself. It was terrible.
But you explain so much deeper.
We face decisions everyday.
And also consequences.
Lord Have Mercy!
Unless you are a woman.
O, Lord, we need Your mercy so much now at these evil times
I remember hearing this story! I was sleeping, let the Bible app read the Bible to me. Woke up in the dark, eyes widened, shook!, staring at the ceiling shocked, and scared! I had to check to see wth I was listening to! Like, did the app start reading something else?! The crazy part is, I know I read this story when I was younger (21-25) ‘cause I wanted to read the whole Bible at least once. How did I miss/forget it!? Holy Spirit /God or minds, etc. Whatever will shield us and protect us from things until the right time. Or, it's the enemy stealing the word from us. IDK, I just wish I read it/listened/learned the lessons of it more. I'm going to read it/listen to it this week, thanks! Cause this story, is the real world baby!
I remember this story you don’t just read a chapter but the whole thing! And that’s why you see all the horror today no real Justice or honor! You can’t cancel God, he will cancel all you who hate him! Get ready people our King is coming! Hallelujah!
Coming? Long overdue. His time isn't our time? That's really a joke. So he preferred to b sadistic by continuing to enjoy watching us suffer while evil reighns supreme? So his time is to enjoy all that until such time he is very satisfied? That's cruel. Then by that it means time is more superior than him since he has to b subjected to time?
No, God is not willing that any should perish but is long suffering toward all men patiently waiting for Mankind to turn themselves over to HIM. But mankind refuses to do so and therefore suffers because mankind is rebellious, hard hearted, they follow a false God, Satan who loves to have it so.
This looks like a evil AI post . How does this story relate to AI ?
Sadly there are those that think they can condom the actions or inaction’s based on their wicked value systems of man.
May you be broken of these ways and find your way to the Father.
Learn what happened to those that murmured against out Father in the wilderness.

There's nothing more superior than our God the creator of heaven and earth, not time, just nothing, so be careful of what you think about God. AI.

Your analysis of events and characters in the Bible is profound and sheds light on things I never considered. Thank you for the incredible insights!
In those days, if you had a traveler staying under your roof, you were responsible for their wellbeing, including their lives.This is why no one took them in. Because the people knew the moral depravity of the men in the town and didn't want to be on the receiving end of their wrath.
Guessing they did not have a close relathionship with YHWH Elohim.

An example of an extreme lawless nation. This is the direction that America is going in .
100% agree.
Much of society would agree with you.
I say is a example of a society without the holy spirit.
Same thing. different perspective.
One from fear to control.
The other results in liberty.
Best message on here America is going in the exact direction, I read this story and never had heard any preacher and anyone talk about this because all thy do is talk about Paul and Moses and the exact same people. I guess they're too lazy to study deeper. There many more stories that most people hardly every know about or talk about.
Compare the US to, say, Norway, which now is pretty much a 'godless nation'. And yet has no homelessness, excellent health care and public services, very little crime, and a social safety net.
The majority of americans 'identify' as christians, with 'extreme' christians topping the list and yet take a look at it.
What anybody would tell you is the atheism of norway is far prefereable to the christianity of the US. Even the most christian in the US will deny that people even have the RIGHT to housing or healthcare despite living in the richest country in the world.
@@mikearchibald744 When the mark of the beast comes fully because we're somewhat in it now, he'll come with a White Horse meaning deception and most people are ibeing deceived. It's called deception because you're not aware that you're in it. God said that he would send a spirit of elution that they may believe the lie because they rejected the truth. Of course the mark of the beast will not bother with the one's that follow his plain or worship him. The Christians in America are not the same as those in the pass, because they have became materialistic just like the world, and are comfortable, because of ther education, and good jobs, On top of that, Leadership plays a big part in our the people will be. It's said in the Bible like priest like people but they have to like them. Not to mention serving God is an individual thing and many will be called but few will be chosen. Anyone can say there're a christian and many people have their view of what that is. Moreover, you know a tree by the fruit and what ever you call yourself you most be Holy. This does not mean and I didn't say perfect, but moving and growing into perfection year by year and dying daily of the flesh. You can have a house and a car and go straight to hell because hell will be full with people that have houses and cars and lands and what ever. Even the devil told Jesus if you bow down and serve me I'll give you all of this.

This story is not about "lust", it is about R@pe
God loves His children and desires to bless them in faith, He is a loving and merciful God indeed. We all are like sheep to stray...
If I understand scripture correctly (I have only just finished reading judges for the first time) but from what I understand god wants us to always go to him when we are looking to make decisions as god knows what will be and can tell us how to act, and when we act on our own without god things never go as expected as we cannot always see the consequences of those actions which leads to down the path of destruction.
Amain

how do you do that ? genuine question

This is what happens when everyone does what is right in their own eyes. Wickedness is in the heart of humanity. This is what happens when everyone has their own truth. There is only one truth and that is the Word of God. Without God, we have no moral compass and we are all monsters.

And it is the same with evaluation of narration when information are said. Then your system evaluating this and mage a "judgement" and you can be right or wrong.. And basically a God is punishing you for that , that your system make a wrong evaluatin which was based maybe on little inputs or just your system miscalculated . Anyway it is only your mistake, not a free will. And for this you will be tortured forever ?
As a woman, this is one story which struck me the hardest, and I can never forget it, nor even understand it. Why this man would give these depraved men his own concubine? Why? And then the next morning, he expected her to get up as if nothing had happened! Only to discover she was dead. And then make a fuss about it enough to even go to war with the tribe of Benjamin. Really really a sad event.
@strictlyforyou1248 I'm wondering if this concubine woman of the Levite, was a prophetess. In chapter 19 of Judges.
It is tragic, but she wasn't all innocent. She was a whore to him scripture says an and left 4 months. Probably continuing in whoredom. When i read it first time it does sound very cold of him towards his concubine when he told her to get up and found her dead. They obviously weren't talking much and she probably didnt want to go but being forced. As sad as it is, the larger picture is the actions of the wicked men of tribe of benjamin in the city and what happened. The reason he cut her up and sent her body parts to the other tribes was to rally them and cause them to come down and punish that tribe...
Not just sad. Disgusting, extremely chauvinistic and abusive. She'd already left the man for her father's house probably for good reason. There must be more to it than that. The father tried to put the man off to prevent his taking the woman back but perhaps the husband threatened him. It's an excerpt from early Jewish history but shouldn't be taken as, an example of anything spiritual. I'm an archaeologist and I'd simply view it objectively and not try to justify it
she betrayed him
@@crossing3790
Thank you for pointing that out, I'd forgotten that aspect. Still though
Pre meditation, remember God knows what we are thinking before we make our choices. And we have to suffer for our choices now and back then. God be with us all. In Jesus name. Our second chance in everlasting life. Amen

I have lived this story. The first time I read this story many years ago it broke my heart. But this story showed the husband was a coward. And the father who was willing to allow his own virgin daughter to be raped as well was a coward too. Seeing the way this man treated his wife it's no wonder why she wanted to leave him. Her husband was a jerk. All I could see when I initially read that story was how weak those two particular men were. If someone doesn't understand my comment chances are, they have never been raped.
I’m so sorry for what has happened in the past
I haven’t been, but I can certainly understand your take, which is also true.
Man bad.
Woman "rape" victim😂😂
I saw the same thing, and was raped too. I'm so sorry this happened to you. I hope you have found peace and healing. I have found it in Jesus.
😭
(14:58) The conclusion about everyone doing what’s right in their own eyes is both frightening and insightful. It’s a fitting end to such a troubling story. Without a moral compass or accountability, we see how far a society can drift-and this story pushes us to examine our own moral grounding and sense of justice.
I cried and cried when I read judges 19 and it I can't bring myself to read it again
Makes one think twice about having hard feelings and doing evil.

I hope this prayer of yours opens things up and brings to you the awesomeness a similar Prayer of mine has for me these last several years. Was Goin through the worst 5 years of my life where everything I touched seemed certain to fail and no matter how many times I prayed nothing seemed to change. Then bout as broken as I've ever been I prayed out forgive my selfishness I'll trust you to make the changes and open the doors I need but until then let me never fail to see those you've placed in my path throughout the day that you've intended me to be the tool that answers their prayers and never let me fail to see a task that you placed me down here on this earth to do. And seemed almost before I knew it once my prayers turned to what I needed to what I could do to help others in theirs all of those things I'd been defeated and beaten down in started turning around almost too fast to keep up with.
I am glad to read this story because it bothered me very much over the years, since I read it while I was in High School, and I am a grandma now. I have been looking for an answer over the years. Thank you for the discussion.
God so loved this world he gave his only son whoever believes in him shall not be perished but have an everlasting life.God forgive our sins now and the past he does not remember .I keep my fellowship closer with christ,praise him and thank him for what he has done for us
Jesus Christ went to the cross and now lives to set sinful us free from death and eternal condemnation. Repent and turn your heart to Him before it's too late. If He's calling your heart today, say yes! But count the cost--it will cost you everything, but the rewards are real and worthy.

This story reminds me of what today's US society is doing to our children. The Lord will ensure accountability.
the guy offers his own daughter to be raped . . . what sort of society allows that?????
EXACTLY. In both the cases of Sodom and Gomorrah and what happened in the Tribe of Benjamin, it was the alphabet mafia that was roving the cities, seeking male visitors to gang rape into oblivion. In both stories, the cities not only allowed it, but fully backed it.
As horrific as what happened to the concubine was, the REAL story is that the tribe of Benhamin went to war with their brothers to PROTECT those MONSTERS. It was a direct comparison to Sodom and Gomorrah that God Destroyed, and showed ONCE AGAIN what happens when you allow the alphabet depravity to be normalized in your society. It will ALWAYS lead to not just this level of depravity, but violent carnage.
We now have an entire month, dedicated to the pride of the alphabet mafia. It is absolutely forbidden to criticize them in ANY way. And yes, they ARE coming after our kids. They've falt out admitted it. THEY will be the ones to legalized pedophilia. The P was always the goal to add to the alphabet soup. NAMBLA has marched in their pride parades since the 80's!
God hates Sin !... We learn over and over again that Sin is not welcome in God's will for us. He will punish sinners. Because He knows what is good for us. Love's us and wants us to do what is Good. Just like the story of the poor woman that ate her own baby.... Also such a horrific story.
Amen! What a great lessons i have learned from these Chapters! Thank you ❤
God please 🥺 forgive me 😭 and see me worthy of your love and Life
God saw you as worthy before you was born, in fact over 2000 years ago He sent His son to die for you personally to pay the legal debt owed as a consequence of your (our) sin, If you put your trust in Jesus you are forgiven it is done, as a response you are to turn away from living a sinful life and aim to be like Christs example. Find a good bible teaching church to learn and grow as a CHristian and know there is NO comdemation in CHrist. May God bless you.
I remember reading this story the 1st time. I was so angry. So enraged. I argued with God and everyone who would listen. My heart was broken and I was angry with EVERYONE in this story. It was perhaps days or weeks after that my brother pointed out some of the same lessons you did here. It took a while to understand the value of this story being shared in the Bible.
The church should teach all the words of the Bible but they won’t. Many stories in the book that will never be preached because it’s not good for business. People need to understand all of the Bible not just the loving parts.
The "Church" is a creation of man started with Ignatius, when he declared him self the first Bishop with the authority of our savior Yahshua.
Everything comes from out Father YHWH Elohim. Expect nothing from the "Church" Br like the wise virgins.

I had a dream where there was a river of people. This river lead to a place of fire and lava. There was weeping and gnashing of teeth. They didn’t know what was to come some didn’t care and some didn’t believe what was to come. There was also a narrow path that lead to an unassuming door that once opened lead to a beautiful bright and glorious place. Yet the people that went through that door didn’t care about the people in the river, except one man. He left the wonderful place and tried to bring others with him. Most people didn’t listen but he tried. Then I woke up to a voice in my head saying which one are you. I wept out of anger at myself and the other who didn’t care about the people in the river. So which one are you.

Interesting dream. The Buddha experienced this in the Hell Realm. You have to wake up and feel compassion (bodhicitta) for the souls that are suffering and turn back and try to ease the suffering of those who are in great pain. That is how you rise to the next level and eventually reach Liberation. The fact that you "witnessed" this process in a dream speaks volumes about you and is a great sign.

Dear Lord the poor lady how awful 😱🙏💖🇬🇧
Wow so inspiring. I have read the book of Judges but will read again. God will give us grace for our greatest embarrassment.
BUT THIS IS HAPPENING NOW!
Right now but nobody sees!
fun fact is I just read this this morning. Literally this morning in my Bible study time. Amazing 🙏🏽❤
Wonderful made up story! Yahweh's great love for woman fun fact. Little wonder that women have been brutally beaten down for centuries with exclamations from men proclaiming happiness at not being born a woman! Amazing that most Christians readily make excuses for God's sick behavior .
the Levite was a COWARD of a man, angry brutish. He CLEARLY didn't treat her with respect and love, that's why she left him and returned to her father's house., she was right to have done so, and if she hadn't gone back with him the horrific fateful events would not have fallen on her. As a husband he should have protected her at all costs, and fought for her till death, but the useless Levite not only abused her himself when she was with him, but let other wicked men do much worse, The poor poor poor girl! The very first Levi, who was the 3rd son to Jacob, was among the brethren who plotted to kill his brother Joseph, and before that this Levi along with Simeon, murdered all the men of Shechem. Jacob even said that they troubled him and caused his name to stink among the inhabitants of the city.
No, she left him to go whoring around. He was the one that went to her to woo her back.
His cowardice wasn't the lesson. There is a MUCH darker and horrific lesson, that WE are not only failing to learn in our society but going head long into it.
The alphabet mafia ALWAYS devolves into this: not just depravity, but carnage. They did it in Sodom and Gomorrah and now even in Israel, and the entire tribe of Benjamin was willing to go to war against their brothers, to DEFEND these monsters. THAT'S the lesson.
And yet, guess what month we are in now? They proudly proclaim they are coming for our children and even now, if you DARE criticize them in ANY way, you are DONE! RUINED. A guy is going to be thrown in jail for merely doing a burnout on a flag painted on the street.
The day will come, if we don't put a stop to it, that these stories will play out over and over, and ANYONE daring to get upset with what they do to their victims will be arrested.
this is why we don't destroy history... we need to learn from it. we've done pretty good in the last Millinia but we're started to head backwards again.
You have no.idea how he treated her
He also did that because of his sister Dinah
Our God is faithful in this past 4+ years of fidelity 'it took God through his holy sovereign spirit to teach me that im valuable to him in his eyes: And our Bodies is his temple : know Holy Spirit is a judge: So when you repent and trun from your sins"' thank you for posting this and a awesome lesson thank you!
yes. this is the most disturbing part of the Bible I have ever read when I first went through it. it was similar when two Men came for Lot and his daughters and wife, when people in sodem wanted to know (as to rape) the two Men sent by God. Lot offered his daughters to the people, but they demanded for the two Men from God. the Men refused to allow Lot to give up his daughters on their behalf. Lot, his daughters and wife left sodom, and then God destroyed the evil city.
Lot had sex with both his own daughters afterwards. Disgusting.
They were angels and they dealt with those men
What a powerful video. it really spoke to me. Pray I listen. Every decision has a consequence.
The first bad decision was made by the Levite when he gave her up. And another when he murdered and mutilated her and suddenly played victim. I am saddened by the conflict between the effort he seemed to make to get her back and how he gave her up so easily. What a man 😢
The woman is already dead or close to dead after what those r*pist did to her all night though... Still, what that evil Levite did is just horrendous and so evil. You don't chopped up your woman, fed it to your fellow people around you and played the victim card right after... That Levite and the old man is as much evil as those r*pist people... Both are bunch of evil individuals and the poor woman had to suffer because of them
No the first bad decision was the concubine who played the harlot and ran away!
@@michaelicornelius Concubines weren’t real wives. They were secondary and basically prisoners used to make babies and satisfy the lust of their “husbands”. They wanted more kids to make themselves richer by having more laborers. The ladies were left alone most of the time and used and abused by the “husband” and real wife. This monster tracked her down, stole her from her family, just to throw her out because he was a coward. He cared nothing for her. It was a disgusting, disrespectful, abusive life for these poor ladies. God never intended for man to treat women in this manner.
@@michaelicornelius oh you really think concubines are concubines willingly? 😂
The rapists murdered her, though. The Levite was responsible, too. The whole 12 tribes were a mess by the end of Judges, you know!
Thank God for this video and the strong message! All the hard work that is put in to make this video I pray that God touches broken hearts, people who are undergoing the consequences find Grace and not make bad decisions! Amen!
It's very painful Thanks for the story
Seeing bad people online😢😢😢😢😢😢.
This is straight to me.
God help me😢.
The more we drift away from God, the more we come a wild human can you say. We become without love and there it start all. We turn to satan. We are nothing about God, realy nothing.😢
This is despicable. I just can’t fathom how God was more concerned about these horrible people finding wives than the women they tortured. Going to have to pray about this.
Wow sad and deep
This book really broke my heart 😢
Profound statement “you can choose your sin but beware the consequences”
A wonderful lesson presented wonderfully.Thank you
The closer we draw to God, the more sensitive we become to sin. We see how unholy we are in comparison to a Holy God. And YHWH deserves better. Follow Yeshua.
I got angry everytime I read the Bible and reach Judges 19 onwards… This is such evil act.
How about the genocides of the Midianites, Amalekites and Canaanites?
It seems God, as depicted in the book, is a murderer. He is omnipotent, so he could solve problems in a million different ways that don't require killing anyone. The fact he chooses to kill means he wants to kill. God, in the bible, is a murderer.
My first thought was that it very closely parallels the story of Lot, when a mob comes to his house and demand they "know" the men God sent to save Lot. Lot offers his daughters to the mob.
@@RobotsandMonsters Poor women had no respect back in the day. The men were supposed to protect the women - but this Levite priest and Lot failed - miserably!! Thank God Joseph was not like that toward Mary. Jesus would have had a horrific childhood if it were so.
You admit to getting angry, is that Righteous?
Does that reflect the gifts of the Ruach Ha'Qodesh ?
Have you learned nothing from this teaching but to react as the people did at the time? Humm

Get off your imaginary high horse
You've had your sense of morality twisted into a knot by your beliefs.
"you can choose your sin but you can't choose your consequences." That's a brilliant saying.
Great lesson to be learned here and i received it.t u Jesus!!!
Wow!! Que enseñanza tan fuerte pero necesaria. Dios hablando a nuestras vidas.
The only problem I had with this story is the presenter is claiming the lack of a king was part of the problem in terms of accountability. No!! You were held accountable by the very name of the book. In fact God didn’t want them to have a king. That was pagan nations ideology. ‘Both Samuel and Yahweh were greatly offended by Israel's request for a king, viewing it as people's rejection of them. Despite his displeasure with the people, God still told Samuel to accede to their demand but warn them about the grievances that kingship would bring (1 Sam 8:4-9).’ I wouldn’t trust anything this site has to offer. Bcuz if it can mislead in one area, it can mislead in another.
Very true and because we "VOTE" every couple of years we elect our law givers. Those are our idols and gods. Because of this this nation is under a curse.
That is crazy ! We are meant to vote for people whom we think are most likely to run the country wisely, and if they don't, we should vote them out next time. They are not idols or gods but fallible human beings, we should not be worshipping them. We are to worship only Yahweh.
Facts. You know your bible!
agree with the part that YHVH doesn't like the idea of Israel having a king, but in the period of book of judges, even no prophet of God shown up to guide the Israelite. so, from my understanding, that's why the book of judges frequently highlight : no king at that time, people doing what's right according to themselves ; Israel people need a guide / king, just like Moses & Aaron had done with them before.
So true and powerful and may God bless you and all your family members 🙏 ❤️
God bless you
I greatly appreciated the non-biased and un-extreme nature of this entire post. As a newly converted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (and, also, a mature female), I get it, and I appreciate the mind expansion.
Please take a very close look at what you have actually submitted to in your conversion. Ask Jesus to show you truth and stick very close to him and not to a religious order.
That religious order will not save you nor can it. It is not possible.
Be very careful it could cost you eternally.
Yes this very disturbing! I remember the story of lot but not this particular incident. It reallys was going downhill at that time!!!!
Wow, people are horrific...."one bad decision often leads to another".
This is a warning that will spare you much suffering. Youll never experience true grief until youve felt the grief of betraying your own soul and, therefore, the very Author of Life (to whom you owe EVERYTHING to, quite literally). No wonder why God doesnt trust us if we deny Him and lean on our own understanding, deceiving ourselves and being blind of discernment. That makes total sense. If we betray, why would be be loyal to Him? We need to give it all to Him. 100%, forever.
I just read this chapter and here's the video
All i can say now is many many thanks for the enlightenment 😊🎉❤
Wow! Thanks for this wonderful video. So similar to what happened at Sodom. Wonderful lessons for us. Thank you so much.
I actually read this yesterday and was shocked at the story. And today, I came across it...
At 15:30 in the video you indicate that except for those that committed the sinful acts the Benjamanite people were blameless, but they protected the wrong doers and in chapter 20 verses 13 and 14 the tribe of Benjamin chose their fate.
WOW... WELL done!
The video is very informative and is well appreciated. It is clear to me now that the Joseph in the old testament is the adoptive father of Jesus, and the husband of Mary. Thank you.
How so, that Joseph from Old Testament is the one who got sold by his brothers and became King of Egypt... That is different from Jesus Christ human father who is an ordinary carpenter...
That's not accurate. Joseph the dreamer died by the end of Exodus. Joseph the earthly father of the Lord Jesus died in the New Testament.
I just finished reading the book of Judges a few days ago, it was devastating to read😭
Is this not the same problem repeated. Adam never protected Eve instead he blamed her and she blamed the devil. Another one who once again taveled miles to get his wife but was more than willing to use her to survive. He did not protect what GOD has given him as women are a gift to GOD.
I think it took awhile to come together, and understand everything together.
Gord is always Good
You are wrong. Adam knew what God told them. He knew that they will die if they ate or touch the forbidden fruit. Do you know what pushes him to ate that fruit? Love. He loved his wife more than God that he turned to take the consequences of disobeying the Lord. He dont want Eve live and leave alone the garden of eden. Thats the truth. He protected her by following his desires over obeying God.
Would have been better off with Lilith! Before they rewrote the his,,,,,story!
The man was not willing to give her concubine, he's been forced to, because homosexuality is against the law, so he tried to avoid the benjamites to commit that sin, and he never imagine that those men will kill his concubine.
I am Balak in both my name and nature . Thanks for the video explaining who am really. Let me hope it will help me in my spirital journey
This lesson should be mentioned in sermon.
