VIOLENCE IN THE BIBLE

Bishop Barron refers to an Old Testament account of King Saul and the Amalekites and the New Testament account of the Lamb unlocking the scroll in the book of Revelation. Compare for yourself these two passages:

1 Samuel 15:2–12, 24–35
Revelation 5

What is your image of God?
How has it changed since you were a child?

When have you taken on the challenge of “fighting evil all the way down” in your life? Or in your world?
