Here are two made up, extreme examples:
A man prays: "God, if you will give me a new expensive sports car soon, I promise You to never vote Democrat anymore ! I will always vote for the most religious Christian Republicans the rest of my life !"
A woman prays: "God, if you make my husband always treat me nice, and he will always buy me expensive presents on all of my birthdays and every Christmas, I promise You that I will never ever make any more bets on the ponies at the racetracks on Sundays !"
To read about the alleged terrible "bargain" of Jephthah, see in the Old Testament, Judges 11:29-39 No wonder that I have never heard of any man today being named Jephthah !
Does our all-wise Father God ever accept any bargains?
Please give some examples from your actual experiences and/or in the Spirit of Truth. Thank you !
Peace and progress !
