religion of invaders used to justify inhumane actions and conquer
But I thought dat whole book was da word of God doe breh? I'm comfruzed.
you realize a lot of the thing in the old testament are rendered obsolete by Jesus.
Such as sacrifices. we no longer make sacrifices because Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice. he died for us. Jesus also taught for us to be servants to people and to no longer let people serve us.
basically listen to Jesus and his gospel and you'll know everything you need to know.
for the reasons I just said.so why is the old testament even included in the bible if so much about it is negligible. nikkas only bring it up when its convinient for their argument but quick when someone brings up the fallacies and just pure weirdness that pervades the OT
for the reasons I just said.
this guy named jesus came and changed everything. you should read about him.
My bad I thought you were asking why the old testament isn't followed. The question you asked is why are both testaments still included together right?I didn't answer anything I just asked. smmfh.
"why is the OT still in the bible if so much of it is not feasible for today"
"read about jesus"
wtf
just because your religious does not mean you are incapable of providing a logical answer, no matter how hard that will be pertaining to your book. Give it a try sometime.
its been interpreted in several different languages and by different arch - religious groups and rulers .... seek King James version ....... ain't hating ... just saying ....
Nah I'm good, breh.
bruh, you gotta understand that there are also chinese jews out here too.
That jewish shyt is such a powder-keg thogh...I just stay away from it.
Acts 17:16-17
While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was greatly distressed to see that the city was full of idols. So he reasoned in the synagogue with both Jews and God-fearing Greeks, as well as in the marketplace day by day with those who happened to be there.
Romans 15:24-28
I plan to do so when I go to Spain. I hope to see you while passing through and to have you assist me on my journey there, after I have enjoyed your company for a while. Now, however, I am on my way to Jerusalem in the service of the Lord’s people there. For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the Lord’s people in Jerusalem. They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in the Jews’ spiritual blessings, they owe it to the Jews to share with them their material blessings. So after I have completed this task and have made sure that they have received this contribution, I will go to Spain and visit you on the way.
Romans 1:7
To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be his holy people:
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Acts 6:9
Opposition arose, however, from members of the Synagogue of the Freedmen (as it was called)—Jews of Cyrene and Alexandria as well as the provinces of Cilicia and Asia—who began to argue with Stephen
Then 70 AD rolled around, and well....
Not to mention you got entire ethnic groups like Ashkenazi (germanic) jews that have come to be the face of the jewish people (whites) but are REALLY recent converts to the religion...we're talking 14th and 15th century......instead of mizrahi (sp?) or sephardic jews
@Czar, What do you think the tree of knowledge of good and evil was?. I have a strong feeling it was a representation of learning magic. Not magic like tricks for play but magic that the ancients used or people who do voodoo or witches. I feel the ancients used magic to make things like pyramids and other things we have no idea on how they accomplished these things. We see magic was important in biblical times when you see how moses had a competition with the egyptians using staffs to turn into snakes and both competing on who can do the best form of magic. I KNOW there are spirits or whatever you want to call them that are watching us because of some things I experienced, and they can interact with us by helping us get knowledge to manipulate nature and, I think these spirits for whatever reason wanted man to learn these magic tricks but since they are just magic tricks, and not being something made whole with the laws of nature meaning everything being used will have a specific purpose, they will ultimately fail you which is why it was stated the day you eat of that trees fruit you are sure to die. In other words the day you start doing magic to achieve things you will ultimately fukk up your life due to not doing everything properly.
I think the proper way to live is to study nature to learn what does what, and use those things in different ways to live a long and peaceful life. Using trickery only creates more problems which is why I think man can go to mars but, has no idea how to eat certain foods, at certain times to be healthy. shyt, we can't even deal with plants properly if they cause some problems. We ban them instead of teaching how to use them and this ignorance creates more problems. Another example is people using pills to heal something, only to create even more problems down the line. When you really look at taking pills that is just a concentration of one substance, that is really a form of magic. You are tricking someone to thing that this one pill will solve a specific problem. It will BUT, the trick is it creates other problems you didn't originally have, which means you will need to find more ways t fix these problems. Your life just got worse then it already was. That is just a small example of why I think man has elevated to the place we are now through the use of magic and not actual learning of our environment at it's core and using creativity to make use of that learned knowledge. Let me know what you think about it.
