Wrath On The Messenger
Contributed by Mark Schaeufele on May 26, 2011 (message contributor)
WRATH ON THE MESSENGER
I don't know about you, but one of my all-time favorite TV shows is M*A*S*H. I especially loved it when the company clerk Radar would have to give bad news to the head nurse "Hot Lips" Hoolihan. He would tell her the news and expect to have to face her wrath even though he was just the messenger. In fact, one time he even wore a battle helmet and shoulder pads!
Can't you imagine that this is how some of the Prophets in the Old Testament must have felt?
