>>>That God is able of (these) stones to raise up children unto Abraham. <<<

And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach [yarah] them.
(Exodus 24:12)

It is the responsibility of the parent to point the way to the children. This means all acspects of life, by pointing the way to God, a career, a moral lifestyle, etc. When a rock is shot from a sling, it is shot at a target. likewise, the direction which a parents points out to his children must be at a target. This target is always obedience to God.

All these messages and their "revelations" seem to come forth as easy as a hard squeezing old constipated cow that had been chewing too long on dried up Yucca plants and drinking too little water.<G>

Do you think that these ancient righteous fellows could have removed the wooden stakes from out of their underwear just long enough to lighten up and speak a little more plainly , eloquently and simply? I am sure that the message from God was just a tiny bit more simple and direct than all this, Abraham ...or no Abraham.

If this is holy scripture , it reads like some rigid morbid
clanging mess of revisionists clashings..... endlessly
over who is the most righteous kid on the playground.

Sorry , but easy to imagine with all this heavily draped wordage , that so many have to fight hard to accept some common meanings significant to the common good of all out of it. These men were really so extremely self-absorbed to have reached some incredibly far off spaces and peaks irrelevant and unknown to any who live in today's world .

No wonder the world is so in love with Soap Operas and drama Stars...<G>
