![]() From the BibleA Story by anandbose![]() These are an interpretation of the Scripture![]() The Bible
teaches us that WORDS are powerful things and we have to use them with care as
words carry a curse or a cure or a blessing. I can quote one example from the
Old Testament. When Jacob was leaving Laban (Rebecca was Laban’s Daughter and
she stole her father’s Gods) his uncle along with his wife Rebecca, Laban a
pagan accused him of stealing his household Gods. To that Jacob replied that
whoever has stolen them will be cursed and die. And when Rebecca was having
pregnancy complications she succumbed to death. Another example is from the New
Testament. While Jesus was traveling he came across a Fig Tree. He was feeling
very hungry and to his irony it had no fruit though it was the fruiting time.
Jesus cursed the Fig Tree and it withered. So the lesson is WORDS can generate
blessings or curses. © 2019 anandbose |
