    God is holy, and not to be trifled with. We wisely enter His presence with the awareness that He is a consuming fire.

    “Death and the Dance: David, Uzzah, and the Ark”, II Samuel 6 This chapter qualifies as one of the difficult passages of Scripture.

    What can we learn from the fishing expedition?
