And that's not a political conversation, but it's like.
Our 21st century context is very different than the days of David.
Right.
It's, it's very David.
Like when the, when the days that Kings were the person who was out in the middle of the war, like the Kings that I literally, the story of David and Bathsheba, actually the story begins with in the season where Kings were at war, David didn't go.
Right.
Like, that's how he was lured into temptation.
Because in cultural context, he should have been at war, yeah?
That whole fall would have never happened had he been where he was supposed to be.
So it's like, the king, the man after God's own heart, was supposed to be at war.
Today we would find that absolute mavis.
So why do I think a lot of times that the Bible was taken out of context?
I think because contextually things change.
I mean, the world a hundred years ago wasn't the same as the world is today.
The other things that I would put in there is that we study the Bible, most people study the Bible for its relevance to their own lives.
And not studying the Bible as an objective truth and adapting me to it rather than it to me.
Ah, I see.
So I, I, hey, all the time I will always, you know, well, God has a purpose for everything.
And I'm like, tell me about that.
And it's like, well, you know, it says, you know, all things work together, you know, and I'm like, all things work together for good.
