Bible Note: BradK, I ofcourse believe completely that our acceptance to God is based upon us being in Christ, and nothing other than this. However, just because I say that God expects us to behaive to a certain standard, does not mean that I am making that standard the means of salvation. It would be like me asking you if you believe that its ok for us to commit murder? You ofcourse would reply that it is not ok for us to commit murder. What if I then turned around and said you were suggesting we are saved and accepted before God baised on us not murdering? You would rightly reply that is completely unfounded. Your saying we are suppose to not murder in no way implies that you think this is the very grounds of our acceptance before God. The same goes for what I am saying. Just because I say we ought not do something, does not mean I am suggesting that it is the grounds for our acceptance before God. Now, as to your stating that nothing in Leviticus 18 is expected of the church. How would you reply to a member of your church who wanted your congregation to accept his practicing beastiality? I would personally turn to Leviticus 18:23. But you claim that Leviticus 18 has no application to us. How than will you respond? Nowhere in the new testament is bestiality addressed? Will you try to argue that it is implied in fornication or sexual immorality? What then if I said sexual immorality and fornication only applied to intercourse with men and women? How would you refute it if not to say that leviticus 18 is the biblical notion of sexual morality? Or would you agree that bestiality is acceptable conduct for a christian? (For any who are misreading me, I completely deny that beastiality is acceptable for a christian!) In Christ, Beja |
