Couple of questions...would like your opinions

God's army was often told to kill the women and children, not just the enemy soldiers. Once, they were told to kill everyone except the young girls, who were to be kept for themselves. Another time, they were instructed to rape the women of the conquered city.

These things would result in court martials today, not to mention public outrage.

OK, maybe that question's too hard. But what about this one?

Does it make you sad to know that nobody actually did this?

Don't you have a burden for the lost? Doesn't it break your heart to know that millions of people are dying without Jesus, and going to hell? Shouldn't you try to save as many of them as you can?

Everyone?

Or just the ones that deserve to go to Heaven?

Great questions! Makes one wonder...reminds me of Saul before he became Paul - he committed horrific crimes against people, however, when he became saved he was terrific.

Regarding my previous post - do you feel that the tribes in the deepest of jungles have a true understanding of who God is? (Long before any missionaries come their way and teaches them differently, do you feel they will be judged if they died. Or will they be judge only on the knowledge, if any, they have at that time?

Well, if you really want my opinion (most AFFers know better than to ask Timmy his opinion! ): they'll be just fine.
