I know that how many times something in scripture is repeated is important (to God!) that we learn it...
So this question is along those lines...I think I read somewhere before (and mentioned here) that there are between 5 and 6 thousand promises to us in scripture, and that is very cool, and encouraging to me. But in the NT I was reading...and it occured to me, wow there sure is a lot of warnings to us in scripture! I tried to Google how many warnings are in the Word, but I couldn't find an answer. Possibly poor search terms? But anyway, how many warnings are there in scripture? Does anyone know? It seems as if the NT is more warnings than promises or positive/encouraging passages/verses.
I dunno if this is a study or not, so put it here. If you Moderators feel it fits better in a different forum, then move it and no sweat there, Brothers!
