Subject: Why did God tell Abraham to kill his son |
Bible Note: 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 |
