Inverted Orthodoxy 387 - Genocide in the Old Testament and I am the Prodigal son.
In this weeks episode of inverted Orthodoxy, Pastors Kyle, Blake, and Doug answer the following questions:
1. Why did the God of Love command the Hebrews to commit genocide on the people that occupied Israel when the Hebrews arrived to the place God had given Abraham? Were these peoples there before or after Abraham? How can we rationalize the Hebrew’s actions when so many other countries have claimed “holy wars” and then later their actions were seen to be not of God?
2. I mean, really: who IS the brother in the prodigal son story? And what do you think of him? Is he really that bad? Wouldn’t you be upset if they left you working in the field and didn’t even invite you to the party? I mean, he’s been saving that fatted calf, probably for his wedding or something!
