Even though it was finally decided by the Supreme that both would receive ownership, it foresees problems of redistribution.

Here is a man who looses everything he has, and is stricken with a tormenting disease, which separates him from man. Yet he says, "What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?"(2:10). Job believed that it was not his place to claim good as a Right.

Job was more righteous than anyone, inclu ...

If you know me, then tell me how often I wear bellbottom pants, or platform shoes, or pink make-up, or little shirts that fit me. For those of you who don't know me, I can tell you right now, I wouldn't be caught dead in that stuff. That takes me to the clothes the models sport.

So on the day you are drafted you suppose to know where you are going to serve and what you are going to do, at least for the first few months of your service. For me the experience of joining the army at the age of eighteen was very difficult. I felt that these are my best years but instead of taking advantage of them I am going to the army. In other countries, when a person reaches eighteen he is usually going to college and "start his life". I on the other hand, was about to do one of the most demanding mission a man can do. I postponed my re ...
