    Interesting choice of verses. Can you list your points of contention, so we can address each one, please?

    Do you understand what God is saying in these passages?
    Do you see how these were not intended for the gentiles? since the sacrifices instructed could not be performed by a gentile, who were not allowed to enter their synagogues.
    I know that you have contentions against the bible and seems to find individual excuses to condemn it and use those to uphold your lack of faith.

    Do you think there any groups of people today, that God needs to kill?

    Perhaps that is a question you should ask God or one of your friends that believes the bible should be abolished.

    The purpose of the old covenant and its laws was to make the Israelites understand what sin was and what was best for them. The new covenant is "easier" - ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’


    If everyone lived this way, do you think we would be better off as a community/state/nation/world??

    Rex, what are your points of contention? Let's take one at a time, assuming you want truth :)

    No I really don't understand. Do you think this would be a good test to see I your wife has been unfaithful? A little of dirt off the floor... a little ink off a page..... see if she gets sick. Perfect. This is written by God, who never changes. Should work today.

    Do you not see any problems with treating you spouse in this manner? Yes, I want the truth.

    Spouses in those days were the property of their father until they were given to their husbands and became their property, which as you know in the muslim world and some other parts of the world, it is the same to this day.

    You say that you seek the truth, yet, based on your questions and posting, I doubt that you have any interest in truth, but just to fulfill your contentious distorted desire.

    Read part of verse 12-13 and explain to me what you think actually happened here.

    If any man’s wife goes astray and behaves unfaithfully toward him, 13and a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and it is concealed that she has defiled herself, and there was no witness against her, nor was she caught

    We’re not far removed from legal, justified slavery here. Endorsed by the church.

    Unless you have some truthful evidence that you can share with us, please refrain from making BS malignant statements against anyone on this forum. Slavery is been abolished for over 150 yrs. Thank you for your cooperation.

    I come from a Sicilian immigrant family that believed in hard work, not hand outs, and I can tell you that those believes have served us very well, by the grace of Christ.

    BTW, never confuse news and truth, especially these days.

    So can you point out examples of the church being on the vanguard of the abolitionist movement?

    Are you avoiding answering my questions? I am trying to walk you thru the passages you refute, since you swore to want truth :) You don't want to harden your heart towards God and become like the romans 1 folks.

    Why do some of you post in a forum titled “Increasing Your Faith” if your whole purpose is to try and justify your lack thereof?
    You’re not here to debate. Just argue. And to try (unsuccessfully) to chip away at other’s foundation for their faith from what I see.
    Sad really.

    You don't really answer questions do you? You often speak about your possession of the truth. Answer # 8 on the cheating wife question.
    You seem more comfortable with personal insults, than direct answers. That ole' anger might be showing up again. Now be truthful.....

    Obviously you are ignoring the answer to my reply or you do not understand that your question has been answered. Read it slower and apply it to your question.
