God does have a wife: The Bride of Christ. We're getting ready for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Can't wait.

Come soon Lord Jesus.

Did God have a wife?

Only until the kids came along.

"DO you know how much work Lucifer is??? That kid is a holy terror!!!"

"You "need" a day off???? When do I ever get a day off???"

So there has never been a queen, i.e., female, of a M.E. country?

Right, the Church is the Bride of Christ and we're getting ready for a Wedding Celebration to end all wedding celebrations.

Let's not get mad at the world. Let's pray for those in the world who Jesus is calling to Himself. We need to rejoice, not be angry.

We need to switch the channel from the carnally confused fleshly mind of the world to the spiritually peaceful mind of Christ who soothes us with the Truth of the Word of God, the Bible.

My 5 year old daughter came over and saw me scrolling through the thread. When she saw this pic she shouted out, “Ewwww, gee that’s gross!” She hasn’t seen the multi-breast doll yet.

These so called scholars don’t know God and obviously don’t know the bible or the Torah. So therefore, they don’t know what the heck they are talking about. It’s like coming to a conclusion with only half of the facts.

A “scholar” says that there is archaeological evidence that Israel worshiped Asherah alongside of Yahweh? Shazzaam! Who’da thunk it? So the archaeological evidence matches the complaints of the prophets that Israel was engaged in unfaithfulness ... that, uh, ... let’s see ... um. That would mean that ...

Never mind. Nothing to see here. Nothing to see. Keep moving. Keep moving.

If you think that’s crap, you should watch the DVD on Jesus put out by PBS. No, wait, just forget about it.

Actually, the cult of Ishtar (various spellings for the same goddess) was quite the thing in the ancient Middle East but worshiping her in her "groves" was one of great sins against Yahweh that drew His repeated rebukes of Israel. If there is a reference to a "Mrs. God" in the Bible I'm not aware of it. But that didn't deter J. Smith and his merry band of apostate heretics, nor apparently the faculty at this British college.

Regarding the Quran, it is quite similar to the Book of Mormon in that it is the compiled ramblings of the founder of the religion who also, like Smith, borrowed and distorted what he knew of the real thing for his own purposes. Unlike the BOM it is in no chronologic order. The Suras - chapters - are ordered from shortest to longest, making it damnably (pun intended) hard to follow. Both were made to sound like the Bible in hopes of taking on the patina of a "Holy Book", but with the original Biblical narratives twisted out of all recognition.
