What do you think God does with our bottled tears?
...put thou my tears into thy bottle... Psalm 56:8
Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.
Re: What do you think God does with our bottled tears?
Dear Sister,
A valid question per se but I personally try to avoid thinking but, instead, utilize the methods of Creation Science to unravel the Truthâ„¢. While this issue seems enigmatic, Jesus can tell us the answers without the potentially hazardous intermediate process of personal thought.
1. God uses the tears to punish sinners.
Psalms 80:4-6
O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the Prayer of thy people? Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure. Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
It is much more practical to recycle perfectly good tears than to create new ones de novo, and lots of tears are required to attain the 'great measure'. Hence, the collection.
2. The tears can be used to replenish streams for riparian entertainment.
Lamentations 2:18
Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
3. More uncertain, as the verse below needs to be examined against other parts of the Bible and with prayer, but possibly the stored tears can be used during droughts.
Isaiah 16:9
Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen.
In case 3, it is uncertain if these are stored tears owned by God or tears produced by His own lacrimal glands.
Yours in Christ,
Elmer
2 Kings 18:25 - Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
