I go to a private Christian college out in West Texas and we are having this discussion in an upcoming class and I'm looking for more ideas. Thanks for any insight you can give.

I need specifics along with a detailed description of why you think so. We're having a discussion in one of my theology classes and I would like to have some extra insight.

First thing comes to mind is "The entire village of Sodom & Gommorah", !#2 The followers of God , as he led them out of egypt. We complain so much to god that we are in in such bondage, hard life ...work, work ,work ! When God sends moses to lead the israelites out of slavery, its still not enough ! We are ungrateful people, just like they were ! too bad , I often wonder why God still puts up with us ! { but im sure glad He does !}Sometimes I feel like Job, but would I have that much faith after losing everthing ? Id like to think so !

How about drawing a comparison between the religious pluralism that exists today (and is so "politically correct") verses the false idol worship and worship of false gods and so forth that was popular in the days of Elijah...or for that matter all throughout the OT (the Book of Judges is filled with it)

War, more religion related, but yes, it moves from here to there and here to there and it never ends, and there's a group of people that are always in the middle of it all.

Men are still Men. Women are still women. Kings are still Kings. Soldiers are still soldiers. Sinners are still sinners and saints are still saints.
