So , You write what god tells you to write. Would you do anything god tells you to do ...and then say he did it?

 I should but I haven't always accepted God's will in my life, my loss. Now if you're trying to trap me in some way God would never ask me to sin, it's not who He is. God says He will not even tempt us to sin, let alone making sin a will of His for our life.

 Why should it scare you, it represents what God did for us so we could have an eternal life with Him.

A lot like the addict, the religious flee to churches to receive their opiate messages of promise and safety. You cannot derive this sort of band aid comfort from the cruel facts of the natural world.

Rather than allow them to drug themselves with religion, we should be capable of finding a way to ensure reality becomes their salvation.

Preferable and agreeable, impossible and unrealistic.

I am simply asking what you would be willing to do if you thought god was asking it of you. Would you be willing to act as Phineas did with his javelin in Numbers 25. In Numbers 25: 10-13 god certainly praised and rewarded Old Phineas. Do you think Phineas did the right thing? I think he was an iron aged skinhead myself.

Accepting god's will is basically accepting the will of an imaginary friend. In the end, you can give any name to your consciousness that you wish.

God works through man to bring people to redemption through Christ. The days of Israel work of bring in the savior and being an example of what God's people shouldn't do are over. You should read and study the scriptures and find out for yourself how God worked through man to bring about these results, He did it for you as well as myself.

So , are you saying that this heinous murder committed by Phineas was god working through man to usher in the redemptive powers of Jesus?

I understand what it represents now.
But as a kid it was just part of a cemetery on a hill in the night. Creepy.

I do, because your version is of the fairy tale make. I cannot delude myself toward that way of thinking.
