  And, if every word of God is pure- Doesn't that mean there is a conspiracy theory God has put in motion himself that tells man to go against his own nature, so they can be punished after death?

  Num 31:17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.

  Here is the entire passage not leaving anything out, what my perception of this means: Every man who has laid with a child should be killed and every woman that has allowed it to happen and knew about it, should also be killed for this is not pure. You left some things out and incest, rape, and pedophilia is wrong any woman that allows it to happen really has a few mental issues and needs to be addressed it should never, ever hurt to be a child !

  Hey AEvans, How are you today?
  
  I'm sorry, but I don't see 'how' you reached your conclusion that this statement is about incest or rape or pedophilia for that fact.
  
  I don't mean to sound rude or come across that way, but there is too much ambiguity in the singular statement to arrive such a conclusion. No offense.
  
  As stated earlier- by SirDent and Others- this statement is part of a broader message about "War"?
  
  So, please explain your position and how you achieve your understanding? I'm only interested in seeking knowledge and increasing my understanding of others, and the way they for their own foundation for beliefs.
  
  I'm not trying to attack your beliefs, but to understand them.

  I based my conclusion when I read the entire scripture on-line I will not discredit anyone especially Sir Dent because he knows that Bible like the back of his hand. Here is the link and I may have read into it incorrectly but it was my perception based on the two passages. http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/num/31.html Yes it speaks of war at the very beginning and it talks about war through the passages but the 2 passages you picked lead me to believe it had to do with incest and a mother not protecting her children. I guess since I am a mom I may have read into it to deeply.

  Did someone teach this to be the meaning of the scriptures you read? I understand a totally different take on it based on the vengence on the Midianites. There is a reference of killing unclean boy's and every woman that has slept with a man save the virgins because of a plague. After a week anyone who touched these Midianites was allowed to return to the camp. Even the gold and silver plunder had to be melted down before anyone could touch it. Please explain further where I have missed your meaning.

  Rom 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
  Rom 7:15 For that which I do I know not: for not what I would, that do I practise; but what I hate, that I do.
  Rom 7:16 But if what I would not, that I do, I consent unto the law that it is good.
  Rom 7:17 So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.
  Rom 7:18 For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me, but to do that which is good is not.
  Rom 7:19 For the good which I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I practise.
  Rom 7:20 But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.
  Rom 7:21 I find then the law, that, to me who would do good, evil is present.
  
  What Paul is talking about is the difference between flesh and spirit. The spirit wants to do good, but the flesh sometimes gets in the way of the spirit.
  
  Rom 7:22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
  Rom 7:23 but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.
  Rom 7:24 Wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death?

  Cagsilposted 13 years agoin reply to this
  But, perfection can never be obtained, not on any sustained level for an absolute period of time. One can achieve perfection, once in a great while, through honest action, but to achieve the level of perfection talked about is unachieveable by any standard, because mankind is flawed, and we know it.
  
  It is for each of us to accept that we are flawed, and move on. I strive in perfection in my thoughts and my actions, but I do with belief in myself and faith in my own abilities. I know I am going to make mistakes, but that doesn't stop me from doing things.

  You are correct here. Perfection itself is pure and completely undefiled in any way.
  
  Right again. The Bible says we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God
  
  Here is where we differ. Even though I strive to be perfect, I cannot be perfect. I do not follow my ownself nor do I have faith in myself. My abilities are to limited. Only God is limitless.

  How do you live otherwise?
  
  You have limited abilities, includes thinking.
  How do you do anything?
  
  Understanding "GOD" is limitless- is to understand that YOU are limitless, because you're made in his image.
  
  If you're made in his image, then it makes sense that you would have unlimited power of wisdom to discern and think introspect, so as to form a solid belief system and guide oneself.

  If I have faith in myself, I am then calling myself God. God did not make a mess of things. It was man that messed up.
  
  I have some abilities, yes, but God has all abilities.
  
  We can only knwo in part becasue we are limited in oruselves. Noone can fully understand God and there's no point in even trying. God cannot be explained. He can only be revealed.
  
  Adam was created in the image and likeness of God. This didn't make him God. He was meant to live forever. His body was eternal. After he ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, his body changed. The spirit of death entered into the picture.
  
  Perfection can only be attained in Jesus Christ.

Okay, I am of the understanding that 'religion', nevermind God's teachings- is a business....the #1 income generating source on the planet and I also know the basic knowledge, as to describing what 'religion' is.

Religion is a code of ethics, bonded or bound, to a higher cause.

Now, I have my own background and experience, that tells me that 'religion' is false and it worships a false idol.

From what I gather- you look at it as "God's Teachings", and I commend you for that.

Can I ask you one more thing- Who is God exactly?

I ask, because I am a failed student of the teaching of religion, I broke thru the hoax it purports. I am able to introspect on many things, at different levels of clarity and seeing through 'religion' was quite easy, once I understood what I was looking for.

But, I'm not trying to mock you or your belief. Your belief- it's view- of God's Teachings--is of interest. How do you separate God's Teachings from Religious teachings, if you use the same quotes? Same scripture?

Please do tell, I am interested in knowing.

  You do realize that people do spend their entire life, claiming to be enlightened, yet they have no clue.
  
  I've run across more people who know nothing about their religion, because they've never studied it.
  
  I spent a good portion of the first 17 years of my life, as a part of the 'Catholic' religion. Then I spent the another 23 years studying it in-depth.
  
  So, I've personally accepted the challenge of living my life by doctrines and came to a self-realization, and a conclusion.
  
  Why you work is ranked at all is beyond me and not for to care about. It has no sufficient baring on this case. Regardless, if your work was the #1 read book in all the world, it would make no difference.

  Religions are a business. Each religion has a code of ethic and are bonded or bound to a higher cause.
  
  Most religions equate the higher cause to be GOD's will.
  
  When the truth is- NO ONE knows what God's will is truly and the bible used by religions, this includes every other bible or renamed bible- is false.
  
  In my study, I found Jesus' work wasn't religion, but he was a teacher. You and I have had this conversation before.
  
  And, you agreed on some points, but not on others.
  
  I find it interesting that NOT all of Jesus' work was included in religion. Why? I know why now.
  
  Why doesn't religious scriptures have ALL his disciples writings included? I know why now.
  
  Because, it's based on a mystical philosophy for which it is damning to the nature of a human being.
  
  I'm not taking anything away from your accomplishment. But, I don't have to recognize it either. It is my choice.
  
  Yes, God doesn't exist and to understand it, the teaching must be fully absorbed and accepted, and applied.
  
  The ACT of being selfless leads to be selfish.
  
  The ACT of suppressing desires is self-destructive.
  
  The ACT of 'knowing' GOD is to come to the self-realization that there is no god.
  
  You can not KNOW something that doesn't exist, even if you tell yourself it does exist. It is biologically impossible to obtain perfection, as a human being. It is biologically impossible to force the will to believe in something one isn't sure is real.
  
  Example: If you have a ball in your hand, and you will yourself to believe the ball isn't in your hand- it's impossible to do. And, on the other hand- if you don't have a ball in your hand, it is also impossible for you to believe that you do have a ball in your hand.
  
  Therefore- no human being can ever be 100% positive that God does actually exist.
  
  Hence, the hope or faith bestowed is for nothing, because 'religion' teachings can not get the job done. It only leads to self-destruction if followed.

I don't know. Maybe this is TOO simplistic for you but, here goes.
There is this thing called TIME. We live in it and it controls us. We don't control time. So, the things written for a PAST (time), say, like in the OT, to the Hebrews/Jews, just may not apply today.
We, living in the NT era, are (supposed) to listen to/live by the NT.
So, even though it's God's word you read in the OT, it (just) may not apply to you and/or me PERSONALLY today.

Here's my beef (as I've posted before).

It is not illogical to believe in God in general, because you cannot demonstrate logically that God does not exist (not talking about what characteristics he has, just whether he exists).

However, it is not logical that an all-compassionate all-merciful, and all-powerful God would stand by and watch millions of fairly decent, or even just average, people end up in hell. It is literally illogical.

  What you say when you speak of deciding yourself, you are rejecting the plan that God Himself made. You are in essence saying that your way is better than God's way.
  
  A compassionate loving father always takes care of His own children completely. Do you discipline other people's children? and if so, how far can you go with your discipline?

  I don't have a beef with you personally -- in fact I quite enjoy your posts, whether I agree or not (you seem more balanced, on the whole, than some other posters, for example).
  
  "Deciding for myself" is another way of saying "choosing." According to Christian theology, we are asked to make a choice when presented with the Gospel -- a choice as to whether or not we believe it. In other words, we are asked to employ the mental faculties (presumably) given us by God (and this includes the heart, in some way, I realize).
  
  But if I decide I do not believe it, I have not said: "I understand the message, believe it, and now reject it"; I have taken the path required, ie, considered the message, and decided it does not make (complete) sense to me...
  
  As to discipline. I have no problem with the notion that a father might discipline, but a loving father knows that a punishment must fit the crime, and the child must see some sense behind the discipline. For most people, they are simply not bad enough to deserve such a horrendous punishment.

I cannot talk to god but I can use my human knowledge of morals and of logic to live an ethical life. Logic does not dispel god. Some on these forums are very confused about logic and use the term as if it were some tool of athiesm or science or evolutionists. that just is not true. logic exists, it is pure, it is a form of mathematics. logic cannot prove evolution and nor can it prove religion. belief in god is about faith and you can use logic to strengthen your faith. logic is not about proof. logic is not more about evolution or science that it is about religion or god or any other thing. I have probably repeated myself here but I find it rather strange how something so basic can be so misunderstood. people should not use words they do not understand, it only makes the fool.

Faith in being a part of something larger than our human self (God, Universal Mind, etc..) and logic are both important, and can both have blindness when not balanced by the other in all decisions of life.

We were created with both potentials and are to use them in balance. Faith is the heart and intuition... and logic is the mind...we have both.

Being purely one way or the other is imbalanced.

If you have 2 kids and one of them sins, do you kill the one that sinned to teach the good one a lesson or do you logically explain why their moral action was wrong? What would the bible do?

  The one who did wrong would be punished. I am no longer a child either. Are you?
  
  Using children in place of adults is cowardly. When I was a child I understood as a child, but n ow I am a grown man. I understand that my actions cause reactions.

  Nope, not a child. That's why I do the manly thing and form my indivdual belief rather than rely on a controlling book of illusions that limits my mind. It doesn't take a book to understand morals and a conscience. One belief is not absolute.

Here is a little of gods word to help keep the true believers shaking!

If a man still prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall say to him, "You shall not live, because you have spoken a lie in the name of the Lord." When he prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall thrust him through. (Zechariah 13:3 NAB)
Sure you've got the only true bible?
