Anyone know what (allegedly) happened *after* the wall fell (Joshua 6, KJV)? "20 [I]t came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. "21 And *they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.* [Except that they spared the family of a woman who had helped Israel's spies, when they had come to the city earlier to scope the city's layout and defenses.] "24 And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the Lord." In other words: pregnant women, babes in arms, blind grandmas--didn't matter, *they remorselessly slaughtered them all and looted their valuables* as their "god" allegedly had directed them. Nice story, huh? Nice people, huh? Nice purported "deity," huh?
Thank you ,God Bless you🙏💕
I love the part about pulling bad thoughts out of your head and replace them with scriptures.
Yes, such practical and wise advice!
