Hmmm......
2 Samuel 7
So..."god" doesn't lie but he did because David's throne...had it existed at all.... ended when the Babylonians overran the city in 586. So "god" is a bullshit artist but the bible can still be "true" because it reports the lie.
Oh, but then there is that problem of it also reporting that "god" can not lie. Such problems for the dorks to work out.
2 Samuel 7
Quote:11 and have done ever since the time I appointed leaders[a] over my people Israel. I will also give you rest from all your enemies.
“‘The Lord declares to you that the Lord himself will establish a house for you: 12 When your days are over and you rest with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, your own flesh and blood, and I will establish his kingdom. 13 He is the one who will build a house for my Name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. 14 I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong, I will punish him with a rod wielded by men, with floggings inflicted by human hands. 15 But my love will never be taken away from him, as I took it away from Saul, whom I removed from before you. 16 Your house and your kingdom will endure forever before me[b]; your throne will be established forever.’”
17 Nathan reported to David all the words of this entire revelation.
