31: What About All Those People Falling Over Dead?
Bell deconstructs the story of Ananias and Sapphira.
“Is there a God who struck them down?
Did Peter actually know that they were about to die?
Is this an example of supernatural judgment?
I have no idea.
No one does.
Let the story be what it is.
Let the Bible be what it is.
And then go take care of someone’s needs.
And don’t pretend you’re more righteous than you are.
That’ll kill you.”
