Why in the time of moses................?

Question

Why didn't god do all those miracles he did back then. Like in the time of Moses when god wanted the Pharoh to free the slaves and all and he did all these trix that killed lots and lots of people. Why doesn't he do that to evil leaders. Or back then When we had slavery!

Don't gimme that crap that we turned our backs on god! All those black slaves did wuz pray and sing to the lord so SHUT UP. Is because of things like that, that we stop b lieving.

Answer 1

Because the Bible is full of lies! It's just a (very boring) phantasy book. It's so old it became obsolete centuries ago!

Read something more productive and that makes sense. You learn more from reading Harry Potter than from the Gospels.

The Bible is useful though, as toilet paper (most bibles are made of very soft paper).

Answer 2

First, have you read the account? If not then read it. Second, how would you define an evil leader? Some very innocuous looking leaders have been evil. Perhaps, America is evil, because condones the slaughter of innocent unborn children. So what's the difference between Moses then and the U.S. now? Third, one must remember, God is sovereign, and answers to no one. He is the creator of life, only the creator of life has the right of end life. Unless, He delegates authority to another, as He does to the governments.(Romans 13:1 ff) I wonder did God delegate the right to Americans the right to act as God?

Answer 3

He works in mysterious ways. Lots of good and people died back then as they are dieing today. It is interesting how things get interpreted thought time. what seemed like miracles in the bible might have been pure adrenaline hyped person telling a story of what just happened to him blowing things out of proportion. it is like when someone is telling a no **** I was there story. It all depends on the story teller.
You could have made any of today's events into biblical acts of God. Like earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, war, terrorism, birth, love, hurricanes, sunshine, are all acts of God depending on the viewer. In terms of Jews fighting for freedom the tables have turned at this day and age, altho it is not clear what will happen and how. it is all in Gods hands.

I hoped this helped you some

Answer 4

In the Old Testament days all of mankind was enslaved by Satan and couldn't do anything for themselves. If God didn't step in, nothing would have been done at all.

Since the crucifixion, Satan no longer has any authority over mankind, and mankind is free to respond to God's grace, which gives us unlimited power for good.

We just have continuing problems with sin, because even though Satan no longer controls us, we're still easily distracted by money and power, and easily get corrupted.

People did eventually get rid of slavery in the United States. It cost a lot of lives, and was paid for by American blood. I have to believe that God's grace played a big part in that.

Luke 9:

54And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?

55But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

56For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.

Are you sure you haven't seen any miracles? Are you sure it is not because you haven't turned off your computer, gameboy, tv, stereo, mp3 player---and looked around to see a miracle. Look for miracles. They are there.

Answer 6

How about this: Jews, Christians, and Muslims are all the decendants of Abraham. With that in mind then aren't we all Gods children. If this is true then how can God play favorites with his children?

Answer 7

Because we do not have a man who lived a life perfect in the LAW thats why!
Or one that walks in the true footprints of Christ.

But have no fear there comming, they will be here soon!

Answer 9

In the case of Moses and the deliverance of Israel, it was a a prophecy given to Abraham, He foretold Abraham that his descendants would be captive in Egypt for 400 years but because of the covenant made to Abraham and His descendants God would intervene on their behalf, but you have to remember that the Bible says the children of Israel where also finally crying out to God for help (prayer) and it's not like that type of miracles happened all the time, they spent 400 hundred years in captivity!
Another issue here is the plan of redemtion, it was one of Abraham's descendants who would be the Messiah (Jesus) so God in order to fulfil His ultimate and final deliverance of mankind through the sacrifice of Jesus has raised up prophets all along who received the word of the Lord about this type of moves of God but they also had to pray them through (like Daniel prayed for the promise given to Jeremiah -that he found in the scriptures- many years before about the deliverance of Israel from the Babilonians). Even before Jesus birth there was two prophets (a man and a woman) praying by the prompting of the Holy Spirit in the temple constantly for His coming (birth).
Now God expects us His children to walk by faith receive by faith and not by miracles. Faith comes by hearing and meditating on the Word of God, in His promises, Mark 11 :"22Have faith in God," Jesus answered. 23"I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. 24Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 25And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."

Answer 10

I would love to answer your question, but since you are asking it in a rude and childish manner I suppose you really do not want a sincere answer.
