Jepthat or whatever is a smart guy, he knew exactly what he was doing.
When you come home from a war victorious, who do you expect to welcome you and celebrate you after that feat? Not only that, this ni.gga said the first thing that comes out of his HOUSE, he knew the people in his HOUSE, he didn't say the first thing to welcome him back into the city. If a warrior comes back from a war and he is victorious, high ranking people in the city will meet him, but if it was in his HOUSE,of course his FAMILY will be the first to come and meet him and celebrate him. They are already waiting for his peaceful return.
Judges 11:31 King James Version (KJV) then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.
Aemmyjah: Your double-mindedness amazes me You can correct these churchgoers by citing scriptures and making references to correct wrong doctrines, even ones they wrongly use Bible to support with an incorrect understanding of it either literally or unliterally but you are very picky and biased in your determination to remain a blind atheist for life In same manner, do an effective research and come up with a reasonable conclusion and stop fooling around threads not meant for your kind
Judges 11:39 At the end of two months, she returned to her father, after which he carried out the vow he had made regarding her]
Aemmyjah: King James Version Judges 11:38 And he said, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains.
Don't bring your own confusion sir
The verse didn't end in 38.
40 that the daughters of Israel went year by year to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in the year.
Why were they mourning every year and it even became a custom?
Aemmyjah: To sacrifice means to offer or set apart as a gift to God or a deity Some sacrifices could be land, fields, animals, humans, etc... Only an ignorant person will reason that all living things sacrificed must be killed
engrchykae: John D Rockefeller is a wicked genius. An evil monopolist. The pioneer of oil exploration that is the reason for unbridled exploitation. Rockefeller steal the resources of nations and give a tithe to the church,this he is a righteous man. Our generation need to see these evil pastors for who they truly are. Greedy shepherds
Thank you, I was surprised that out of all people it was Rockefeller he used as example.
annyplenty: All the prophecies about Him before his birth were fulfilled to letter. This one too will be fulfilled. I pray that God should help your unvelieve in Jesus name
Your jewish soter doesn't exist beyond those forged and edited books written by unknown authors.
SIRTee15: We define evil or harm based on our understanding of this physical world. God is not of this physical world, so human laws and code of conduct can't apply to him.
Our definition of good, loving, just, benevolent and merciful won't also apply to this god too right?
SIRTee15: God is the creator and giver of soul, He gave soul to man. He can demand of it anytime and anywhere without asking us. He doesn't owe us that explanation. Our soul belongs to him.
Regarding the morality question.
Humans slaughter animals at will without care for their own self preservation instinct. Did they tell u they want to die? No but we deprived them of their inmate desire to live so that it's body may be consumed. Do u know why we able to do this without our conscience being troubled. because we are not bound by the moral principles of the animal world. Whatever law is created within the realm of animal existence is for them to follow and not for us.
Same for God. God is outside our realm of human moral conscience or moral fibre. He's not bound by it. We define evil or harm based on our understanding of this physical world. God is not of this physical world, so human laws and code of conduct can't apply to him. It's very wrong for a human to kill a fellow human for his selfish desire because he didn't make that soul. U can't take what is not yours. But that moral principles can't be applied to God because he's not human.
Another thing u all need to understand is this. To us humans, when we die it all ends. Our understanding of life is restricted to this physical world. For God, death simply means separation of soul from the body. The soul doesn't die, it's simply a transition to another realm of existence where the soul continues to exist. So why should God be troubled because he decides to take a human soul from one house to another house. Why should he be perturbed by such action. It makes no logical sense. It's like when we drag a toddler from his playroom to his bedroom to sleep. The toddler isn't happy he's being denied the right to continue to play with his toys and visibly upset about it. The parent care less because it's the right time for the child to go to bed. Simple.
Humans pluck out plants for food too, life needs life to live.
Your israelite god doesn't exist beyond the books it was written in
50 SIGNS OF RAPTURE/END-TIME (SOCIAL AND BEHAVIOURAL SIGNS Cont’d)
Leviticus 18:22 KJV 22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
Leviticus 18:22 NIV 22 Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable
Same sex marriage is the marriage or sexual intimacy between a man and a man, or between a woman and woman. It can also be called homosexuality or lesbianism if it involves man and man, or woman and woman respectively.
From biblical account, It was majorly for this type of sexual relationship that God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. And because of that all such actions are also referred to as Sodomy, named after the Sodom that God destroyed for such abominable acts.
Same sex relationship is now very popular and gaining acceptability among many nations. Presently as of February 2022, about thirty countries have legalized same sex relationship and marriage
However, in the scripture above, God gives a strict commandment against homosexuality and calls it abomination.
From online extractions, Abomination can be described as something disgusting, unimaginable detestable, and abhorrent.
Sometimes ago, I think in the year 2020 or 2021, I had a dream which can be interpreted as acts of Sodomy (homosexuality and lesbianism) becoming widespread in Nigeria. We have been praying against such; you, also, can join us in that prayer. Judgement of God is always hastened upon such nation where that becomes widespread
If you are an homosexual, you can repent today and ask Jesus to deliver you.
When you shall see all these things know that it is at the door. (Mathew 24:33)
Jesus is coming. Stay ready.
Please share with others.
JESUS is coming. Stay ready in absolute repentance and holiness.

The five guys in the imploded Titan submersible didn't even know what happened as they died almost instantaneously : were they harmed?
Your accusation was about EVIL, leave Harm out of the equation.
Would it be EVIL if the maker of Sophia (the AI Robot) David Hanson from Hanson Robotics decide to decommission Sophia and reuse the components for something entirely not related to Sophia? WHY?
