This is a ministry of striving for eternity. A common argument that many people have is that God is somehow this evil monster because of the fact that he commanded the extermination of all of the

Canaanites, even including the children. But let's look at this and examine this biblically.

So, what do we see? Well, what do we know historically about the Canaanites? We actually find out that, first off, they were warned by God many times.

They were being judged for their sinfulness. And so, the first thing we have to realize is many people want to somehow say

God is wrong because he exterminates a whole bunch of people. But the real question is, was God being just in exterminating a whole bunch of people?

For the fact is that these people that we've now learned from history, that these people in the

Canaanites were people that were so wicked, they would teach children as young as three and four years old to be raped by adults, to be having sex with animals.

And the animals, why did they have to be killed? Well, once an animal starts having sex with humans, they can't differentiate the difference on this.

And so, what you end up seeing is that, yes, God, in an act of justice, declared that all of the

Canaanites needed to be wiped out, both adults and children, even the animals.

Why? Very simply, because they were a wicked, wicked people. That's called

God's justice. He could have done it the first time they sinned. He was long suffering with them until that time.

But that time was enough. This podcast is part of the Striving for Eternity ministry. For more content or to request a speaker or seminar to your church, go to strivingforeternity .org.
