Judged: 1 1 So he's making ignorant comments as payback? |

Judged: 1 1 1 I only posted it because I was asked. The laws were very stringent back then to protect family lines and inheritances. Today, many people don't care or respect whose baby is who's. I |

Judged: 1 1 1 You continue to ignore my answer. Here is the key portion of my reply that answers your question: Whether you believe the "bitter water" causes miscarriage or not, it certainly causes the guilty woman's body to respond in such a way that proves her guilt, according to the Law. Ink is stating that her body response cannot prove her guilt and so claims God's Law "makes no sense". She is calling God a liar. Let me break it down for you... "Who says the accused adulterous is pregnant? You keep harping on ABORTION. If shes not pregnant then whats the bitter water going to do as to prove her guilty or not? Understand?" This is a secular point of view, taking FAITH in God out of the equation. So, let's look at the secular POV. Short of the woman having had sex with another man shortly before the ritual and the priest getting a DNA swab from her vagina and testing it to prove there is sperm other than her husband's, NOTHING could prove she was unfaithful. "It is about the priest givinv her the bitter water and either it affects her body or not...depending on her guilt." How? You don't accept that the body response is miscarriage, because you say that would not prove she cheated. So, what body response would prove she cheated? We have the text. We have the translations. Even if you take the text literally,-- her thigh will rot and her belly will swell -- that would not prove infidelity by the standard you expect when rejecting miscarriage as the interpretation OR in asserting she's not pregnant. The problem you guys are having is questioning God's Law, in which HE said (not I said) the truth would be revealed. You and Ink are stepping outside of faith to the secular view and asserting NOTHING could reveal the truth. You guys are calling God a liar. |

Judged: 1 1 She can't debate the merits of the PC position. I have no idea what she thinks she's accomplishing. She thinks everyone is evil who disagrees with her. It's her "thing". |

Judged: 1 1 I don't believe the Rapture Theory. |

Judged: 1 1 1 Seems to me none of 'em can debate the merits of the PC position. Yet it doesn't slow 'em down from forging ahead come hell or high water. (pun intended) |

Judged: 1 1 1 So you're admonishing cpeter for making comments as "payback" but say nothing about the "ignorant" insulting comments Tom Tom is making towards him? |

Judged: 2 2 2 You've given up on the debate. No problem. At least you had to think about it. Which is all I could hope for. |
|
|
Judged: 2 2 2 That's nice. You have no explanation, of course. But it's great to know you question God's Law as He gave it. Heck, you're not even questioning it. You're rejecting it. |

Judged: 1 1 There is a difference why the comments are being made. Tom Tom is speaking from ignorance, Petey is speaking just to piss him off. |

Judged: 1 1 Well, after you see what an affair does to many people, then you might agree. I almost put myself down over the deal. Many do -however, I am not a jew, and most laws were written for tbe jew to be a seperate people. |

Judged: 2 2 2 Yes wise one, please educate us dumb ole folks who know nothing. Feel free to add to or take away as much of Gods word as you wish, since you seem to have no problem doing so. See if you can tell me how to pray, so I'll get good parking spots at the mall and wal mart, joel O.:) |

Judged: 2 1 I am not calling anybody a liar, certainly not God. What I said over and over is that 'your explanation' doesn't make sense. As I read it in the Bible, it does make sense. I also believe that a woman would probably admit her 'guilt' before she actually drank the water if she believed 'her belly would swell and her genitals would fall off.' |

Judged: 2 1 1 From ourjourney.org So, while unprincipled people prosper in the short-term, in the long-term they are headed for ruin. Jesus said that those who follow Him have a cross to bear (Matthew 16:24), and His cross involves forgoing the temporary and short-lived pleasures of a self-absorbed life. Jesus gave up earthly power, wealth, and security, even to the point of directly confronting Satan’s entrenched power in the political and religious systems and authorities of His day. Although the immediate result of His self-sacrifice was persecution, torture, and death, the lasting result was His resurrection and vindication, and the fulfillment of Israel’s hope. Those who seek eternal life will experience some short-term pain that others may avoid. But the rewards far outweigh the costs (Proverbs 3:13-24; Matthew 6:33; 11:28-30; 19:29; John 16:33; 2 Corinthians 1:5).—Dan VanderLugt It isn't about this life. |

Judged: 2 2 2 Yes and I reject the idea that the meaning of the law was to cause an abortion. God who knows you in the womb wouldn't do that. |

Judged: 2 2 1 Nonsense. Tom Tom is not speaking from ignorance, but from hate. He's getting back what he's giving out. And what the do you care anyway? Is your finger broken? Scroll. |
