Why was Isaac 12 years old when God called Abraham to sacrifice his son?


Because if he had been a teenager, it wouldn't have been a sacrifice at all.

P.S. Ask the_doc what he was tempted to say in response to my beer & Baptists joke....

P.P.S. I like what Voddie is saying about worship. It is one area where my church is very expressive.

This is the one I thought I was posting, but the one on worship is also very good. Especially the ending about pickin' somebody else's cotton.

 1 Corinthians 8:8-9
 8.  But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.
 9.  Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak.
