[QUOTE]Originally posted by Aban Rune: [QB] First off, let me say how amazed I am to find so many people here who are this versed when it comes to the Bible. I've been going door to door for 4 years now and rarely see as many opportunities for a good conversation as I do here. First of Two: Regarding # 3. The prophesy in the book of Isiah points to the year 1914 as the year when "The War in Heaven" took place. This is also the war that is talked about in the Revelation to John. However, it says that Satan was cast "to the vicinity of the Earth" which explains why things have been so bad during the 20th century. As for your thought about skipping the part where Satan is allowed to do his thing, it makes sense in that it would have prevented Human suffering, but consider this: When Satan succeeded in turning Adam and Eve away from God's commandment he raised two questions. 1) Does God have the right to rule and 2)Are Humans better off doing things their own way? If God had destroyed Satan right then and started over with the Human race, those questions would never be answered. To actually touch on the question in the topic, I too believe that the 10 Commandments given to the Israelites can not be (seriously) ammended just to appease a society that changes its mind about moral codes every few years. Also, since (as it's been brought out before) the new covenant Christ instituted was the fulfillment of not only the 10 Commandments but the entire Hebrew Law, no one on Earth today is held to it.
