Kill Homosexuals
“If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives.” (Leviticus 20:13 NAB)
Kill Fortunetellers
A man or a woman who acts as a medium or fortuneteller shall be put to death by stoning; they have no one but themselves to blame for their death. (Leviticus 20:27 NAB)
Death for Hitting Dad
Whoever strikes his father or mother shall be put to death. (Exodus 21:15 NAB)
Death for Cursing Parents
1) If one curses his father or mother, his lamp will go out at the coming of darkness. (Proverbs 20:20 NAB)
Murder Rape and Pillage (Deuteronomy 20:10-14)
As you approach a town to attack it, first offer its people terms for peace. If they accept your terms and open the gates to you, then all the people inside will serve you in forced labor. But if they refuse to make peace and prepare to fight, you must attack the town. When the LORD your God hands it over to you, kill every man in the town. But you may keep for yourselves all the women, children, livestock, and other plunder. You may enjoy the spoils of your enemies that the LORD your God has given you.

which Jews?
The good jews, or the bad jews??
seem to remember someone else in history that asked that....
still didn't answer the question
in any case, when did good or bad matter to an evangelical? sounds kinda Catholic.

which is really ironic considering King James was a sodomite himself!

Hi Blue
Hi Lynn
My past posts I guess I was trying to share a here and now life
Instead of ,some one wrote this or that and this is why I don't believe
Or do.. Jesus always brought people to the present and confronted
then in the here and now. What are you doing now.
Not to many here want to here the truth from people of faith.
Just belittle call names nasty jokes etc.
In my walk I have struggled greatly in every area of life.
Off and on.
Most posters here didn't choose the day that they where born
The parents they had or didn't. The color of there skin. Or the day of there death.
I didn't get to choose wether I participated in the government mind control experiments
taking place when I was 2 1/2.(past posts )
I've been responding out of dissociation most of my life plus God's spirit.
If you read the old testament one big theme will stand out ,,don't be double minded
don't have a mixture.
I have had that all my life.
When they broke us it seems they put most of the memories along with most of the abuse on one
Part of me. I guess you could say that part of me is really angry pissed or ?
I can say with out a doubt that Jesus has been that buffer between that part of me,
and me .
No spaghetti monsters real pain real brokenness.
I know I don't post well. Or give a clear thought.
As the memories and physical pain gets closer
I find Jesus getting closer real peace real joy
Like a cool stream in the middle of the desert.
It's only one man's story but it's the truth.
I believe one day I may have to die for my believes it's in the bible. many warnings .
Happening around the world already.
I appreciate your prayers Paul

"Most posters here didn't choose the day that they where born"
No entity on this planet chooses the day they were born.
Faith in belief vs. reason and logic.
There are stories and there are facts.
Think.

i guess your glory in reason and logic is its ability to determine which day to die?
Think again

d- know true I was trying to be funny.
Unless you are a c- section baby. Some one else decided the day.
Read Story of George Mueller he ran a orphanage in England.
True story.
So many say no God......
But they can only repeat what some one else has said or studied.
What is your own proof that there is no God.
I shared a very little of my life.
You and many others will so no God
I say yes there is a God and I have a story.
What's you story of no God. Not someone else's story...
Your own.....

I had a real encounter with Jesus in Jr high.
Raised in Baptist church . A lot of Bible truth taught along with
Pastor's and teachers living out lives that didn't match what was being taught.??
Thru life I wanted to be a real person and Christian.
Having a broken personality mind & spirit didn't lead to a easy life.
Many here would say you are foolish stupid and ignorant and not very
smart..... I will agree with you ,,,but not when it comes to God.
I'm guessing one day I will have to make a stand for Christ, deny him
Or die,, around the world Christians are being killed for there faith.
It will come here to.
Jesus is my only hope.
And he is helping me..
God Bless

I came to a realization tonight.
Good thing there is no god. Cause I'd have to kick his ass if there was.

I hope that I'm starting to put the pieces together.
The free gas that I got from Jesus when he miraculously filled my gas tank does not contribute to global warming. I feel good about that - I'm just that special because of the way my belief creation processes form beliefs based on faith.
Man I look good in this skin!

Indeed. Given the volition, I could
choose your day as well.
Especially if god tells me so.
But we both know that is not
logical or reasonable.
Love and respect.

Well, i don't think that's a loving response, so i don't think it's logical or reasonable to think it comes from God. Some that think they're hearing from God, might infact be hearing the Neanderthal from within..

Hi Patrick
What's your own story and experience.
Not someone else's ideas or writing. ?
You do know the statement above is quite twisted.

I've posted a bit upthread,
But i was raised in an evangelical world. Only christian school, and church 3 days a week. Super crappy excuse for an education. I was 2 years behind in college. oh but I memorized so many bible verses!
Came to learn that the biggest believers tend to be biggest azzholes and liars. I didn't speak in tongues, so I was ostricized. Watched my gay best friend get berated constantly for being different. Watched my father be falsely accused of stealing money from the church while the preacher walked with the dough. Watched the msot godly proclaim their chastity while fvcking like bunnies while the choir sang.
Then I went to a Mennonite college for a year before moving out west. I had and still respect their vibe and traditions. They aren't pompous dill holes and actually try to help people, live a simple life, and don't think every word of the bible is the sacred, direct word of god. They don't turn away gays and people even openly profess to drink and even smoke pot without hassle.
I've watched my parents throw their life savings to the missionaries and other BS 'ministries' out of some weird need they have for acceptance in the cult.
So yeah, I'm a little bitter and I'm really tired of evangelicals thinking they run the country. Trump has been awesome for this in that he blew the republican christian ideals up. Many of them, the sheep, are buying into his racist, misogynistic BS. They will be the perfect soldiers for the 4th Reich of Christ of Murica!
So, to the true Christian soldiers on this thread: be one, and follow what Christ wrote about loving other and sharing. It isn't about guns, gays and Murica. And your 'personal relationship' isn't an excuse for supporting a machine of BS and hatred.

Thank you for sharing a little. My eyes leaked a bit.
Sorry for having you repost.
Misrepresentation is the devils speciality.
Time wise I will have to share later.
Hope you aren't offended if I say God Bless.
I really mean it...
Your story triggers my own pain inside.
My thoughts get scattered.

Powerful stuff Patrick Compton...
To answer Lynne Leichtfuss: In Luke 12:41 to 57 Jesus explains how to treat your slaves including when and how to beat them. He goes on to say that he has not come to bring peace, but rather division among families.
In Luke 14:26 Jesus makes it clear that to be his disciple one has to hate their family.

patrick compton, just so others on this thread don't think all "christian schools" were like the one you attended ...... My experience left me for the better. I had an excellent education as well as great opportunities for sports, singing, acting and music. The teachers were great overall and took their jobs seriously. My six siblings as well as 3 of our 4 kids went to the same school and had a great education there until we moved to San Diego. Jess sayin' not all experiences are the same and one can't paint it all with the broad brush stroke. Cheers, lynnie
Edit: I'm sorry about your Dad and the whole money thing. That's horrendous and I can see why you feel as you do. The church I went to was connected with the school and kids know "what up". We had the wife beaters, cheaters, molesters etc. It's sick, but a church is made up of people. In any walk of life people can profess one thing and do another. My faith/trust is not in people who will let you down. It's in my best friend, jesus, who has never.....through all of life's great challenges....let me down.
