1 | Problem sharing our faith? | Ex 20:13 | kamschoolgrad | 211872 | ||
I am sure my husband's co-worker will agree with us there are differences between killing and murder, but that is not the problem. We can unanimously agree that committing murder is always wrong but killing although sometimes wrong, is sometimes necessary and justified. The problem my boyfriend and I have trying to explain this is overcoming the cruelty of King Makua issuing an order that anyone speaking evil against the king shall be put to death. In Deut 13:10, God commands that a person who tries to sway a family member away from the Lord shall be killed. How do we explain God's justice and mercy in this situation? How do we reach out to our friends when they ask the question, why is killing a family member who has a different opinion not murder? Is killing a family member for going against God necessary and justifiable? |

2 | Problem sharing our faith? | Ex 20:13 | stjohn | 211876 | ||
God had divine sovereign authority to do as He pleases! If He says to do it it is not murder. Frankly I wouldn't wast my time on their nonsensical question that is, comparing God's word with a story about some King whats-his-name that is completely made up. Talk about a Fairy Tail! Just use the Scripture and let the word of God tell it! If they won't listen to that then, Prov 26:4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly, Or you will also be like him. God bless John |
