The 'contradiction' (Lev. 20:21 and Deut. 25:5) that utcsrgv!simon talked about in article 134 is explained clearly in Luke 20:27-39. The marriage covenant is a covernant for the living and not the dead. Neatly enough, an illustration is given with the burning bush that also was mentioned by utcsrgv!simon. This is one example to show that men gather only those evidenences to support their belief or unbelief. But the Bible IS God breathed and written with every spiritual need of man in mind. It is not possible for God to contradict himself. Yes, there are issues in the Bible that a person cannot comprehend unless guided by the Holy Spirit. It would be wiser to seek answers than to make passing judgements. floyd!dyl
