A RIDDLED CULTURE?

A RIDDLED CULTURE?

Monday, January 25, 2016

Mark [ESV] 13:31 [Jesus declared] Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

1Peter 1:24 … "All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, but the word of the Lord remains forever."

Riddle:

1. A question or statement so framed as to exercise one's ingenuity in answering it or discovering its meaning; conundrum.

2. A puzzling question, problem, or matter.

3. A puzzling thing or person.

4. Or as in Bonnie & Clyde’s final ride, shot thru and thru.

  Various cultures have a history of using riddles to orally provoke thought and therewith teach wisdom. In the USA riddles, when used at all, have primarily been used for purpose of entertainment, including bullying “You think you’re so smart!” egocentric putdowns.

  This morning I’ve thought through a provocative riddle that edifies: A terrible crime is committed. As solution one of the victims is executed, the perpetrator is not.  ??

  In providing answer please include applicable truth that you may think of from God’s Word (The Bible.).
