Severed Heads

Numbers 25
1 And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.
2 And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
3 And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.
4 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel.
5 And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baalpeor.

Here we see God's fierce Old Testament anger.

Matthew 5
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

But here....

Psalms 37
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth;
and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

....we see the saved, filled with the spirit, calmly accepting God's sovereign grace, in all its manifestations....

Definition Of Manifestation From Webster's 1828 Dictionary:
MANIFESTA'TION, n. The act of disclosing what is secret, unseen or obscure; discovery to the eye or to the understanding; the exhibition of any thing by clear evidence; display; as the manifestation of God's power in creation, or of his benevolence in redemption.

Enemies

Matthew 5
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

Old Testament Enemies - they receive God's wrath. New Testament Enemies - Christ says turn the other cheek. In Psalms, the word enemy is used over eighty times. Thinking back on life, a long life, I don't remember having enemies. My great grandfathers had enemies. And so did my great great grandfathers. I don't think my grandfathers had enemies.
