So he violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in one field. As does his wife by wearing garments of two different kinds of thread (cotton/poly blends). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go through all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them (Lev. 24:10-16)? Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people that sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14). Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

I don't think you need the whole town, just maybe just a couple congregations of some local neighbour loving christian churches. Your best bet would be the the local Baptist and Evangelical churches if you need a good stoning. If you have trouble convincing some of them to trow stones just tell them he's an abortionist. They love murdering those guys.

Woah, woah woah. Don't burn them, don't stone them you don't really need to do anything except tell him not to curse. Leviticus is an OLD Testament book that shows us the strict laws of the Hebrews/Israelites; however, those laws are no longer necessary because when Christ came and died for us and rose from the dead, He fulfilled the law, He is the law, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." - John 1:1 The Word is Jesus in this case but the "word" is also referred to as the Bible, and the Bible is also referred to as the Book of the Law. Therefore, you don't need to worry about those laws.

Again, is your father a descendant of Israel?

Here is the facts: You are not in Israel 3500 years ago. The 613 commandments apply only to descendant of Israel. So is your father a Jew?

This is your second question that shows your poor understanding of the books of Moses. The 613 commandments tells Israel how they are to live as apart of the first covenant: God covenant with Israel (Jacob).

God's word is eternal. It will exist when the observable world ends, the end times. The only problem is you have not understand which words apply to whom.

You can slice and dice the verses all you want, but that will not change their meaning when the proper context is given.

Do us a flavor: Slice and dice something else.

Boy, you really did some intense study of Leviticus. God doens't change, but there are some things that do change.

1. Culture changes. Do you want us to live just like the Jews thousands of years ago? You need to do some study of the context and the reasons for these laws and then apply the principle.

2. Jesus came so we are under a "new testament" with God. This means that God dwells in our hearts, not in the holy of holies in the temple.

The ORDINANCES you reflect ancient scientific thought on the fertility of the soil etc. They are ordinances, not the decalogue.
No one said nor does the Bible read that it is unchanging or eternal. M. Luther said it well, The Bible holds the Word of God as the manger held the Christ.
The bible is 1149 amazing chapters - each of which needs interpretation in context.

You know Christians are just going to say that Christ came along and got rid of all the old testement laws. However, they will dip into the old testement whenever they need it. You know, you can justify anything with a quote from the Bible.

The instructions against circulate-breeding animals, sowing 2 forms of seed in a similar field, and donning clothing produced from 2 supplies have been given for specific purposes. They prepare a area of Israel, and greater importantly they're shadows that element forward to Jesus. Leviticus 19 starts with the command, "You would be holy; for I Yahweh your God am holy" (Lev. 19:2b). To be holy is to be set aside for a particular purpose. The united states of Israel grew to become into to maintain itself become self sustaining from the countries of the international and their practices, and those regulations have been reminders of that separation. Jesus is holy, conserving Himself become self sustaining from sin. additionally, Jesus' followers are sharply defined, whether the line between a real follower and non-follower won't continuously be seen to us. on the single hand, Jesus mentioned, "For whoever isn't against us is on our area" (Mark 9:40). on the different hand, He mentioned, He who isn't with me is against me, and he who doesn’t deliver together with me, scatters" (Matt. 12:30). only as Israel ought to haven't any animal it is in between horse and donkey, ought to haven't any garment that grew to become into the two cotton and non-cotton, and ought to haven't any field that grew to become into the two a wheat field and an olive field, we can be with or against Jesus, yet no longer the two or in between. for the reason that maximum Christians are no longer area of the historic, political, genealogical kingdom of Israel, those regulations do no longer observe to us in the 1st experience. As for the 2d experience, we now no longer want the shadow now that we've the determine who forged it. Jesus fulfilled the regulation.

You sure did put a lot of effort into that question....lol. You might want to catch up with the rest of us and live in the New Testament ages.

A simple stoning should suffice as long as you dress warmly for the winter season.
