It's weird. I have heard that when you take a picture of Bro Splane all you are left with in the pic is a shadow. Steve lett's crazy eyes are the only thing that shows in his pic...guy pierce turns into grandpa Munster, Sanderson shows up as the doughboy, .... I need to go pray now.

Birthday celebrations and Jeptha's daughter

did you realize that jeptha's daughter was actually burnt at an altar as a burnt offering?

check judges 11 in some other translations for the clearer language.

jehovah was cool with that since jeptha was fulfilling his vow.

Why would jeptha shown a form of mourning (renting his garments) that was traditionally used for death rather than rejoicing that he could give jehovah the best( his daughter) ?

Jehovah was cool with that since jeptha was fulfilling his vow. Also God foretold that Josiah would turn the false priests into burnt offerings. Abraham was close to killing and burning Isaac up and finally as mentioned elsewhere, God sent his own son to earth and had him killed as a sacrifice to make himself happy. god is cool with human sacrifices, but don't you ever celebrate your kids birthday, he hates that.

“He Sold His Bicycle
Malachi, an elder who lives in Burundi, earned his living by farming and by transporting loads on his bicycle. In order to support their Kingdom Hall construction project, Malachi decided to be at the construction site every day. To do so, he needed money to care for his family during the two months of construction. So he sold his bicycle and gave part of the money to his wife for his family’s needs, and he put the rest of the money in the contribution box to help with the construction costs.”
