God Bless that man and his family. He is what America is supposed to be

I saw a video of another man who was a physician saying he tried to help him, but he died instantly after getting hit in the head. He also said his brains were blown out.

He had put his body in position to protect his wife and daughter.

Damn.

Yes because your choice of translation being the King James Version to cherry pick a certain wording that is half a millennium out of modern vernacular.

My favorite translation for Isaiah 45:7 is the KJV because I think it is the most accurate.

Genesis 3:22 translates “ra” as “evil” as in the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Every translation I checked uses “evil” in English here, and that includes KJV, ESV, NASB, NET, NIV… etc.

The same exact Hebrew word “ra” in Isaiah 45:7 and 1 Samuel 16:14 is “evil” in the KJV. The other translations (including ESV which in my opinion is one of the most accurate modern translations) are all over the place on this word in these two verses. They all called it “evil” in genesis. Many of them render “an evil spirit from the LORD” in 1 Samuel. But in Isaiah 45 hardly any of them use “evil” but every one uses a different and unique word. The problem is the beliefs of the translators won’t use the word “evil” because like you they think a loving god doesn’t create evil. It’s sad they’d rather insert their own beliefs into the translation rather than letting the text say what it literally says.

Calamity - oh yeah that’s a modern word. Modern vernacular for sure.
I guarantee you here “evil” 100 times for every time you hear “calamity”.

Calamity, chaos, etc is a more accurate translation.

I can see how you might think that, because you don’t want to admit that your loving god creates evil and suffering. Also this translated bad word needs to be the opposite of shalom (peace/happiness) so I can see how some could translate this to “everything bad” or “misery” or “disaster” or “unhappiness”, but “evil” also fits and it is the same word translated as “evil” in the rest of the translated work.

Please tell me, do you know the difference in the line of manuscripts the KJV comes from vs the line of manuscripts something the ESV comes from?

. You want to get into the Bishop’s Bible, Wycliffe, Erasmus, Vulgate, Textus Receptus, LXX, MT, and DSS? Let’s go

Do you know why serious biblical scholars do not favor the KJV? In terms of manuscripts?

---

The reasons are moot on this subject. You might also want to seriously check the Greek LXX. “Kaka” is used here for the Hebrew “Ra” in Isaiah 45:7… “kaka” is used throughout the New Testament and most commonly translated as “evil” in all translations.

No you are just trying to cherry pick to dunk on Christians who aren’t as theologically deep as they should be.

I don’t have to cherry pick to dunk on ya’ll.

But ultimately yes, the Lord in his sovereignty does not prevent some evil.

I’m glad you can admit that.

it’s comical to think you know better what to allow than an all knowing creator.

I can’t know better than a figment of your imagination.

You can’t think of a reason, so there must not be any good reason for bad things to happen

---

Certainly nothing we can point to as a cause of bad things. It’s ok to not know something and admit that. You theists pretend to know everything, and you project your faults onto others.

The modern atheist and agnostics are the smartest dumb guys in the room. They dunk on armchair Christians with shallow views all day but literally have not brought a single new objection to the Christian faith in centuries.

My first thought was “there’s no way this guy is that stupid”. That’s why I think you are lying, but maybe you aren’t. Maybe you are just that sheltered, ignorant, and deluded. C’mon man… we know the earth is a sphere, we know there is no solid firmament in the sky, we know the stars are millions of light years away and can’t fall out the sky, and modern evolutionary biology, genetics, archaeology, paleontology, and geology has shown the earth is not 6000 years old, that all live (found so far) has a shared common ancestor, that the flood of Noah not only couldn’t have happened but did not happen, that Adam and Eve never existed, that Abraham didn’t exist, that Moses and the exodus from Egypt is a fairy tale, that the land wasn’t conquered by Joshua but that Israelites were just a sect of Canaanites the whole time, and that Jesus probably didn’t exist.

Actual Christian theologians and philosophers have given plenty of adequate responses to these juvenile internet atheist troll attacks.

Not adequate enough to prove your allegations. Else you wouldn’t converted everyone at this point. I started life out as a Christian, and it wasn’t until I started learning about the sciences and reading the Bible that I began to reject Christianity and all other religions.

It’s hard for me to shed a tear sometimes even for people I’ve known well. That post made me hurt for those folks. Yet, it is a beautiful story in an ugly situation so she lost her dad but he literally did what our soldiers do and died protecting what he loves

R.i.p. frick the msm for making light of the shooting. This guy sounds he was a helluva guy.

I tell you one thing about these down voters on your post needs to go walk in front of a fast moving train. They think they are being cute, but they are total scum. I have no tolerance for people like this.
