Balaam and Balak

Well, I just think Balak was an idiot. Take a minute and read Numbers 22 today. Basically Balak commissions Balaam to curse Israel. Well each time Balaam tries he can only bless Israel. After a few times, Balak is pretty upset and says lets move to another spot and maybe God will let you curse Israel there. Pretty dense guy. Ok twice God won't curse his own people, but moving to another rock is going to make a difference?

Yeah I dont get that?

How did this guy make the Bible?

Read the chapter....

Yea, kind of like the pharisees getting together and contemplating murdering Lazarus after Jesus had raised him from the dead, because Jesus did raise him from the dead... like if Jesus did it once, maybe he could do it again? No one said eveyone in the bible was bright...actually I suspect most of us aren't that bright either... :-)

I love it. We sometimes like to think we are smarter than we are huh? Thank God the requirements of salvation have nothing to do with brain power.
