...Thank you for taking a Christian look at this :-)<br />So many are just forwarding this without thinking what is actually being said here. <br /><br />Also, it seems that David Barton did not say this, that it is being spread under his name to give it more weight.Ketutarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17817006362006690145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740548348485099519.post-30497556494675474582010-04-27T08:44:53.678-07:002010-04-27T08:44:53.678-07:00Thanks for that answer; I agree.

My other thought on the subject is, I find it hard to respect a 'leader' who not only supports abortion, but, he and his wife, while in Chicago, wrote letters to make sure 'partial birth abortion' was kept on the books!<br />Well, anyway, God will, and is , the judge!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740548348485099519.post-84792148415144979842010-04-26T11:35:30.755-07:002010-04-26T11:35:30.755-07:00Anonymous, that is an interesting question.

Even in the Israelites complaining, as you mentioned, the complaint does not seem to attack Pharaoh directly but more their position as slaves. I don't see anything in the text that says they didn't honor Pharaoh. However, Pharaoh did dishonor and disrespect both the office (prophet and savior) and the man (Moses). Interesting thought though.Brookenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740548348485099519.post-37041140270339082592010-04-26T10:51:17.391-07:002010-04-26T10:51:17.391-07:00Well, did the Egyptians 'respect' and '...Well, did the Egyptians 'respect' and 'honor' Pharoh? And, can that be found in OT that they did. I know they complained to God."how long, oh God"? NOT picking a fight, it's just a question.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
