Sirach 35: 12-14, 16-18. 10-28-2007

The Bible vs The Padre 10-28-2007

For he is a God of justice,

Who twice set up the Egyptians for the slaughter.

who knows no favorites.

Although the Israelis were his "chosen people".

Though not unduly partial toward the weak,
yet he hears the cry of the oppressed.
He is not deaf to the wail of the orphan,
nor to the widow when she pours out her complaint;

All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to
the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that
sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the
sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.

-- Ecclesiastes 9:2

He who serves God willingly is heard;

for God is not unrighteous to forget your work and the love which
ye showed toward his name, in that ye ministered unto the saints, and
still
do minister.

-- Hebrews 6:10

his petition reaches the heavens.
The prayer of the lowly pierces the clouds;
it does not rest till it reaches its goal,
Nor will it withdraw till the Most High responds,
judges justly and affirms the right.

Have you heard any word from Jesus about those prayers for world peace,
padre?
