Subject: Does God approve of slavery? |
Bible Note: EdB, I claim no knowledge of Chattel slavery or even if it is actually a real word. I simply posted scripture that seemed to be related to your discussion. I know that when I am considering a question I appreciate it when people point me to scripture that may weigh in on the question. I try not to take offense if I then determine the suggested scripture does not. On a side note, our modern sensibilities are often offended by scripture, and I would suggest our discomfort or indignation to be an unfit measure of truth. Take the modern offense over scripture's stance on woman authority in churches and homosexuality for example. But once again, Beja isn't even sure if Chattel is a real word and has made zero assertions on the slavery question, only posted some verses for you guys to weigh. In Christ, Beja |
