Well, what do you think of this? I am thinking of God judging all those nations who didn't have the law. Not sure what he means by this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can blaspheme God by quoting His Word, unless you use it in a context such as to discredit Him or His sovereignty. Let's see what some others say about Canaan and examples such as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
