It also says if you deny any of the Scriptures, such as that God gave the Jews the Promised Land, you're not a true believer.
Basically it says, God created all people and He is the one who determines when they die. It also says the wages of sin is death. If you kill someone without an explicit command from Him to do so, that is called murder since He is the one who is in charge of life and death. Some situations are not murder such as the death penalty. The people they wiped out were evil beyond description. They needed to be wiped out the Jews would have become just as wicked as them and there would be no decent people left on earth.
No other holy book says there is nothing you can do to save yourself no matter how good you try to be. It's all mercy and grace. Every other religion says you're saved by works.
The only way to escape death is to believe in Jesus who lived a sinless life, was crucified to pay for the sins of believers and rose from the dead, therefore conquering death. He promises that this will result in your sanctification, which is the lifelong process of becoming holy. It also says there will be results and a change in your life, since faith without works is dead.
The resurrection would be a crazy thing for the disciples to make up, knowing how much they were willing suffer and die for it. Nobody would be willing to suffer and die because of a tall tale.
Also the Bible has more evidence for its accuracy than most famous historical texts. The Dead Sea Scrolls prove that it was not altered.
I know, my point was just that you posted an obviously outdated chart of daily record highs. Not sure if there was agenda behind that or not. It looks like that chart hasn't been updated since 2016. SEA set two daily records in May 2020 and four in May 2023. There's been plenty of record heat in May recently.
0.13” today with a high of 55. If this was winter it would have been a disaster to go from 0.75-1” of QPF at 2-3 day lead time to this.
Bring on the heat.
