One group says the Bible is a book about love, mercy, and kindness. They think of the story of the Good Samaritan and of Jesus telling us to turn the other cheek. So how could anyone think the Bible prevents a tolerant society? But for another group, the Bible is far from tolerant. There’s the conquest of Canaan. There’s Elijah killing Baal’s prophets by his own hand. And in the New Testament, Jesus talks often about hell. That’s not tolerant. What then can we say in answer to this question?

Often we think of the Christian life in a stained-glass-window way, where everyone is perfect and moral. Today we look at Abraham, by no means a perfect man, as an example of faith. We should find this deeply encouraging.

Paul tells us to go to the greatest king of all time, David, an amazing man who wrote many songs and won numerous battles. What does King David say is the blessed life?
