Why did God reveal himself to illiterate goat herders in the desert instead of sometime after the 2000s when we'd be able to record his message exactly as it was and have the distributive nature of the internet and media technology to preserve it as-is?

>>18058961God hates the proud who think they have built civilizations with their own hands and won't acknowledges that God wa the one who gave the order for their civilization to be bukt and was the one who sent the talent and the abilities for them to build it.King Nebuchadnezzar said at the roof of his palace: isn't this the city in have bukt with my own power?Next thing he knows he's eating grass with the mind of an animal in the wilderness next to the beasts of the field for seven eve years until he recognized god is sovereign over all kingdoms of earth.But God loves the humble who acknowledge God might and sovereignty over them and the whole earth. And that gost herder called Abraham happened to be the humblest man on earth at the time.

>>18058961Within 60 seconds of taking your last (worthless) breath, you will wish beyond hope that you could go back and accept Jesus. But it will be too late. You are going to burn, consciously, without even a moment's rest, forever. You will beg for annihilation, but it will never come. Millions of years from now, you will have nothing but millions of years of pain and regret at your back, and an eternity of unspeakable agony before you. I will laugh heartily at your calamity from the comforts of heaven. Tick tock.
>>18058964You wouldn't listen to god?
