COMMANDMENT OF THE DAY
“Thou shalt not kill.”
Exodus 20:14, Deuteronomy 5:17 (CoD 8)
This is one of the Lord God’s most famous commandments, number six on His eternal TOP TEN. It’s short and easy to remember, too. However, if you believe in the Bible, all the Bible, and only the Bible as the inerrant Word of God, you can only regard this as a general guideline, since there are a whole lot of exceptions to this rule in the Old Testament. According to Scripture, the Lord has a long list of people that need killin’. To wit, and in God’s Own Words:
“Any son of Israel or any stranger living in Israel must die if he hands any of his children to Moloch; the people shall stone him to death.”
Leviticus 20:2
“All who curse father or mother shall be put to death; having cursed father or mother, their blood is upon them.”
Lev 20:9
“If a man commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall be put to death.”
Lev 20:10
“If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall be put to death; their blood is upon them.”
Lev 20:13
This one makes the hearts of homicidal homophobes beat faster, mmm?
If a man takes a wife and her mother also, it is depravity; they shall be burned to death, both he and they, that there may be no depravity among you.”
Lev 20:14
Having more than one wife is just fine…but we’ll get to that in the next lesson.
“ If a man lies with an animal, he shall be put to death; and you shall kill the animal.”
Lev 20:15
“The woman who approaches any animal to have intercourse with it: you shall kill the woman and the animal.”
Lev 20:16
“If the daughter of a man who is a priest profanes herself by prostitution, she profanes her father and must be burned to death.”
Lev 21:9
“A prophet or dreamer of dreams…who offers to do a sign or wonder, and the sign or wonder comes about, if he then says to you, ‘Come let us follow other gods’…That prophet or dreamer must be put to death.”
Deuteronomy 13:1-5
“If your brother, the son of your father or of your mother, or your son of daughter, or the wife you cherish, or the friend with whom you share your life, if one of these secretly tries to entice you, saying, ‘Come, let us serve other gods’…you must not give way to him, nor listen to him, you must show him no pity, you must not spare him, you must not conceal his guilt. No, you must kill him; your hand is to be the first raised against him in putting him to death, the hand of all the people will come next. You must stone him to death.”
Deu 13:6-10
“If you hear that in one of the towns which the Lord God has given you for a home, there are men…who have led fellow citizens astray, saying ‘Come, let us serve other gods’ …then you must kill all the inhabitants of that town without giving any quarter,…and set fire to the town and all its goods, offering it all the Lord your God.”
Deu 13:12-17
Jehovah is the Al Capone of deities; He really, really hates competition.
“Show no pity: Life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.”
Deu 19:21
THE APPLE OF LOVE?
LOW CARB COMMANDMENT UPDATE: FOOD FOR THOUGHT
(Lev 3:17)
Additional citations:
Pope Paul V (1605-1621) condemned and banned the potato as "the apple of love" and "the root of man's licentious and depraved behavior." Good Catholics were warned to avoid this aphrodisiac for their very salvation.
I just recalled this gospel passage:
"And Jesus said, I am the Eggman. Eat of these green eggs and ham, in
remembrance of me.
And Jesus said, You must break the egg, and stir it, to make an omelet.
Those who have ears, let them hear.
And Jesus told a parable: When you fry the egg in the fat of the lamb,
remember it is like your mind on Christ. And do not forget the salt,
lest it have no savor."
The lost Gospel of Lennon and Seuss
