Another W for God

There is also I Timothy 1:8-11 But we know that the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully, realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching, according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted. Homosexuality is considered lawless and rebellious in this verse.

There wasn't such thing as the word homosexual back then

“If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.”
‭‭Leviticus‬ ‭20‬:‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I do not think that this should go as far as the Jewish law commands. However, the point of homosexuality as a sin still remains. This is because the Jewish law can be divided into two categories: the moral code, which still applies today (“They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them” Romans 2:15), and the Jewish ceremonial law (“You shall not wear cloth of wool and linen mixed together.”
‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭22‬:‭11).

The first sentence sums up the point of my previous comment. I also agree that slavery is bad and that killing people who commit blasphemy is wrong, but I'll explain how these issues should be approached today.

"my conscience does not bear witness to what the Bible says." Maybe not, however, you still do have a moral code, as all humans do. All humans do have a conscious that has an innate sense of right and wrong, even if it is twisted by the world.

Slavery was a social issue of the time, just as homosexuality is today. However, I do not agree with the idea of modern-day slavery or even racism. In addition to this, it was actually Christians who began and ran the underground railroad movement.

In addition to this, the sin of blaspheming is a sin that has been clearly stated to be forgiven by Christ himself “Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the children of man, and whatever blasphemies they utter, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin" (Mark 3:28-29). In addition to this, the blaspheming of the Holy Spirit is defined to be continual unbelief in Christ and refusal to repent.

In addition to this, we have been released from the Law of Moses through Christ, "But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code" (Romans 7:6). Yet the Law of Moses does give us an idea for what is sin and what is not, "What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, I would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, 'You shall not covet'" (Romans 7:7).

Yet the point of Christ's return is that he sacrificed himself for the forgiveness of our sins. "but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God" (Romans 5:8-9). And he came for all "because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9).

You can divide into 20, but the Law is the Law.

So it says no to man with male but not man with man?
There might be a reason, as words have meaning:

The bible isn't trail mix, you don't just pick out what you want and ignore the rest. There are other verses that clearly say homosexuality is bad. You can also just use common sense.

So how was you Passover? And I hate to tell you this, but ice cream is pretty awesome.

Not very well. Luckily I knew the heimlich. (those tortillas are so sharp)

So you're not keeping it holy, despite Jesus saying it will mark his 2nd coming?
Pehaps that's why he's running a little late, unless we got some 2000 Apostles camped out somewhere.

You mean communion?

Excuse me, "perhaps." Hope that alleviates any confusion over what I said.

Well I'm keeping communion holy

I learned a lot about it recently actually

I've seen a documentary where a guy told an African tribe about all the LGBT stuff that was going on in the us. They didn't even know about it, and they thought it was absolutely nonsensical. Anyway, the Bible beats common sense.

First of all, gods power isn't magic.
And second, all of your examples are from moses's law. That was abolished when Jesus was born.

Sure, it can define as "magic" but it's different than how people see it. It's faith based.
Yes, dead people can come back to life. God can do anything. It happened nowadays too, but it's rarer.
People use to be killed for blasphemy. That no longer needs to be followed.
Owning people as property... I'll have to look at that more. You can own them as long as it's hiring.
Being killed if not a virgin, again, old law.
Killing people of the opposing tribe, that was partly God punishing the tribe for being wicked. The old law also sometimes punished the family rather than 1 person. It's also because of war, so they could get the land god promised them.
The earth being flat, yes that's true. There are verses in Genesis and more observable proof.
Earth existing before the sun, yes, a day or 2 before.

The old testament has laws that were established for all of time, and then there were others that were rituals. The laws weren't just there for them to follow. They were expressing the character of God. That's why they're perfect.

Moses law being followed, I see

The bible being faith based means that it stresses belief. But there is plenty of proof too. Historians have found the apostle James' bone box (sorta like a coffin) they found the exact pots Jesus turned water to wine in, they found Joseph's grave from exodus, and much more.
Also, if we go through a ton of specifics, were just gonna branch off a ton. Let's just see about proving the whole bible.
But if you're concerned about the old law, it was just there to point out sinfulness. Now we have the bible to look back on.
Miracles do exist today. There was a guy who was in his farm and a ton of bees stung him to death. His father told his doctor he wanted to talk to him, and he told him to get up. He did.
Why miracles don't happen as much any more, I'm not quite sure. I suspect that it's because there wasn't as much scripture to read back then, and miracles would help people know God.
And knowing the shape of the earth doesn't matter as much, but it's in the bible, and that's important. If the only pictures of earth day "CGI" below then, that's pretty low.

False.

What's this

It is what it says.
Or are you calling Jesus a liar?

Ohhhhh. Moses' traditional law doesn't need to be followed anymore. Jesus "broke" it many times to show that. That was the old testament, now we have the new

Anyways, this repitition begins to bore me...

m hm

Would you like me to repost Jesus's own words yet again?

idk why you would
