Have you found that people don't want to hear or face the truth about anything?

It's sad but many would rather CLOSE their eyes and heart to the truth of God's Word the Bible and the prophecies therein that have been for fulfilled, that are being fulfilled right before our eyes, and that are yet to be fulfilled when it affects their program, agenda, or chosen lifestyles. Here's what I know will happen with this post: (1) There will disrespectful one's who will ridicule and mock this post who truly do not care what the Bible says and who do not believe or care what God says or does. I hope this won't be the case. (2) There may be lovers of God's Word the Bible who honestly want to understand the Bible and draw close to God but have many questions. Which category/number do you fall under?

Most people haven't got a clue about what the theme of God's Word is. They don't have a clue or understanding of what the Bible says about the wonderful future that lies ahead.

The only real truth is God's mighty and impressive beard. For there lies his true strength that will guide you to a better tomorrow.

@VictoryBeard Is that your understanding? Is your reasoning found in the Bible? If so back up what you say with a Bible verse.

@seotelkniwt Ye beard symbolises God's divine attributes of mercy and compassion. Only by lengthening ones facial hair can ye grow closer to the lord.

@VictoryBeard Is that your interpretation and does the Bible say that? Where in the Bible is a beard attributed to God and His attributes?

@seotelkniwt I took liberties, but I'm pretty sure God is pro beard. Here's a real verse

Jeremiah 48:37
For every head is shaved and every beard cut off. On all the hands are gashes, and around the waist is sackcloth.

@VictoryBeard Thank you for sharing that verse. I'm familiar with this account and verse. That verse is the result of a prophecy against the nation of Moab.

Moab in Prophecy:
In harmony with its long history of opposition to Israel, Moab is mentioned among the hard-set enemies of God's people. (Compare Isaiah 11:14.) Moab is condemned for reproaching Israel and for pride and haughtiness, Moab was finally to become a desolation like Sodom. (Zephaniah 2:8-11; see also Jeremiah 48:29.

Keep in mind that God did not condemn those that wore beards. The verse that you mentioned is showing the results of the desolation of Moab and the clipping of the beard signifies mourning or extreme grief over a terrible situation. This verse does not mention or assume anything about God wearing a beard or that wearing a beard means having godly attributes.
