Interesting here, in another place you say Pharoah didnt have a choice, it was all orchestrated by God, now you seem to be saying these stories here are real and these people actually made a decision to lie with Gods appoval. maybe you could clear up this seeming contradictory mess nad let us know which parts of the Bible you quoted are actual stories, real, fabrications or simple illustrations. heck you cant even make it clear to us what the case is in this situation, much less provide the PLAIN and SIMPLE text that directly states by God that lying is acceptable in some situations.
In this paragraph you are bringing in issues from other threads, from different forums that do not apply to this thread. Each thread is a separate debate, with its own parameters given the forum in which it resides or the originators preferences. The position a person takes in any debate may or may not be their own personal position outside this board. The position a person takes on any given subject may or may not even be the same position they've argued previously.
Please stick to the subject of the current thread and parameters set for this discussion by the forum and/or the originator.
Argue the position presented in the thread, not the person or positions presented in other threads.
If you take issue with my Admin comments, then take your complaints to the
"Report discussion problems" thread. Do not respond in this thread.
Thanks
AdminPD
P.S. This goes for all participants in this thread. Argue the position, not the person.
