1 | Why did God tell Abraham to kill his son | Gen 22:2 | Vintage68 | 214883 | ||
Hi humbledbyhisgrace Well to tell you the truth, that would be pure speculation. I can only go by what the bible says, and believe it. What are your thoughts on that matter?:-) Vintage68 |

2 | Why did God tell Abraham to kill his son | Gen 22:2 | humbledbyhisgrace | 214887 | ||
Well, Great! I too believe what the bible says and think it essential we express it properly. Something I constantly work on myself but have failed at more then once :-( Where does the bible say "where there is no law there is no sin" ? It says there is no transgression (Romans 4:15). The sin is not imputed (Romans 5:13). Steve |

Hi Humbled I have added the brackets. Maybe this will help Rom.4:15 Because the law worketh wrath: (for where no law is), (there is no transgression). 1 John 3:4 (Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law): (for sin is the transgression of the law). Ok If you want to split the hair about the exact wording. Sorry:-) Vintage68 |

Not splitting hairs about the exact wording has put many on a destructive path. It is our duty to make sure we get the Word correct. 2Timothy 2:15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. Stand in His grace, WOS |

In looking at the statement made, was the integrity of the bible compromised? Did the statement, in any way change the context of the original text? Did the statement, in any way change the meaning of the original text? No, nothing has been lost in using the word sin, instead of the word transgression. You use the word "rightly (handling) the word of truth." I use the word (dividing). Who is misrepresenting the bible? I DO Vintage68 |

You tell me. You made the statement: “The bible says where there is no law there is no sin. Just based on that Even if Abraham had Killed his son as you have stated. That act would not have been sin, based on the grounds that there was not at that time, any law about killing, murder, etc.” You were then asked: “What do you make of God's punishment of Cain then?” Your answer was that you didn’t want to speculate. But if murder wasn’t a sin as you say and God punished Cain for murdering his brother, then your logic leads me to believe God is an unjust God which you and I both know isn’t true. And if there was no sin, how could it be couching at the door? Genesis 4:7 If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it." So you tell me just who is misrepresenting? If you plan on responding to this post, please answer why God punished Cain if murder was not sin. Stand in His grace, WOS |

Hi Wildoliveshoot The answer that was given was in relation to a question that was being asked, with the knowledge of SIN as we have it today, ie after the Mosaic Law. The question also said kill which was actually sacrifice. But this should answer your question. From Adam to Moses, there was no law. Rom. 5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. Vintage68 |

Vintage, Step it backwards: Death reigned from Adam to Moses. Romans 5:14 Sin is in the world but not counted where there is no law. Romans 5:13 There was death because there was sin. Romans 5:12 We also know that the wages of sin is death. Romans 6:23 So, If there was no law, there was no sin, so there should be no death. Since there was Law, there was sin thus there was death. “His inference hence is, Therefore there was a law; for sin is not imputed where there is no law.” – Matthew Henry Stand in His grace, WOS |
