Bible Questions and Answers
Published 05/23/2013
Why did God approve of murder in the Old Testament? Why did God destroy entire nations in the Bible if God is so loving?
How did He command the Israelites to wipe out entire nations, including innocent children, from the face of the earth? The commandments say “thou shalt not kill,” but what about the genocide of an entire people? And as a consequence, the question is: why does God show such preference to the Israelites, and at the same time, such disfavor to other nations? Isn't that what the New Testament forbids you to do?

The basic principle of Judaism is sadism. The texts of the Old Testament are permeated with sadism. The scale of the atrocities of the Jews has no analogues in world history. This is not surprising, since their Jewish Lord God Jehovah is one of the most cruel gods in the world. The Gnostics also knew about the essence of the main Jewish god. They argued that the main Jewish god, Jehovah, was the devil. 2.1 “And in the cities of these nations, which the Lord your God is giving you to possess, you shall not leave a single soul alive, but shall consign them to destruction: the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, as The Lord your God has commanded you. "(Deuteronomy 20:16-17). 2.2 “Therefore kill all the male children, and kill all the women who have known a husband in a man’s bed; But keep all the female children who have not known a man’s bed alive for yourselves” (Numbers 31:17-18). It is obvious that such calls from the Old Testament fall under the characteristics of Article 354 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Public calls for unleashing an aggressive war), Article 357 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Genocide), Article 282 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Incitement of hatred or enmity, as well as humiliation of humanity dignity) and the Federal Law “On Combating Extremist Activities”. 2.3 “If you hear about any of your cities that the Lord your God is giving you to live in, that wicked people have appeared in it ... saying: “Let us go and serve other gods which you have not known,” ... then ... strike destroy the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, and destroy everything in it and their cattle with the edge of the sword; “But gather up all its spoil into the midst of its square, and burn with fire the city and all its spoil as a burnt offering to the Lord your God…” (Deuteronomy 13:12-16). 2.4 The Jews also call for killing prophets: “... and that prophet or that dreamer must be put to death because he persuaded you to depart from the Lord your God...” (Deuteronomy 13:5). 2.5 The Jews do not spare their relatives if they are carried away by someone else’s faith: “If your relatives call you to worship other gods ... then kill them ... stone them to death” (Deuteronomy 13: 6-10). 2.6 “And Moses said to the judges of Israel, Every man slay his men that cling to Baalpeor” (Numbers 25:5). 2.7 “If there is among you... a man or a woman who... goes and serves other gods and worships them, or the sun, or the moon, or all the host of heaven... then stone them to death” (Deuteronomy 17:2-5) . The vast majority of ancient traditional pagan religions of all peoples of the world are based on the worship of the Sun - the divine source of light, heat, energy and life. The Old Testament condemns them all to death. In passing, we note that of the so-called ten commandments of Moses, the 2nd commandment prohibits making any “images of the things that are in heaven above” (Exodus 20:4). This is no accident. This is done in order to prohibit a person from knowing about space, about the place that the earth occupies in space. Based on this commandment, the brutal “servants of God” destroyed all astrologers, astronomers, mathematicians, and scientists. “God’s servants” burned more than 13 million of the best representatives of the human race at the stake. 2.8 “Whoever steals a man from among the children of Israel... he shall be put to death” (Exodus 21:16). Please note that this norm is intended only for the sons of Israel; other people can be stolen. This is obvious Jewish racism. 2.9 “Thou shalt not allow sorcerers to live (Exodus 22:18). 2.10 “He who sacrifices to the gods, except one lord, shall be destroyed (Exodus 22:20). 2.11 “Whoever does work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death” (Exodus 31:15). It is obvious that such commandments, propaganda and calls from the Old Testament for murder and violence incite racial, national and religious hatred, call for aggressive war and genocide against the indigenous population and non-believers. Thus, these calls and propaganda from the Old Testament violate Articles 282, 354, 357 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and the Federal Law “On Combating Extremist Activities.” 3. PROPAGANDA OF PATHOLOGICAL BRUTALITY AND SADISM
Brutal pogroms were carried out by Jewish fascists in the lands they captured. The Old Testament does not condemn these acts. On the contrary, the Old Testament relishes and justifies the facts of these atrocities. 3.1 “And the Lord our God delivered into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his people; and we smote him, so that he had none left alive... and we consigned them to destruction, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, consigning to destruction every city with men, women, and children” (Deuteronomy 3:3-6). 3.2 “And they smote him and his sons and all his people, so that not one was left alive, and they took possession of his land... (Numbers 21:35). 3.3 “And they destroyed all the cities, men and women and children, leaving no one alive” (Deuteronomy 2:34). 3.4 The pathological brutality of the Jews has no analogues in world history. Before entering the Promised Land, Moses sent Joshua and Caleb Jephunne to reconnoiter. Having returned, they began to encourage the Jews to conquer in the following expressions: 3.5 “... do not be afraid of the people of this land; for he will be ours to eat” (Numbers 14:9). The Jews have already completely “ate” several nations of the world (Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Gergesites, Hivites, Jebusites) and there is nothing left of these peoples except a mention in the Bible. What can these Jewish stories evoke in other nations? Only retaliatory hatred. 3.7 During the time of King David, the Jews brutally and with pathological sadism destroyed the entire population of Rabbah of Ammon, throwing people alive under saws, under iron threshers, under iron axes and into kilns (2 Samuel 12:31). Thus, crematoria were created by Jews long before Hitler. This is where the so-called Holocaust comes from. 3.9 The Jewish Lord God, after the death of his servant Moses, placed his bet on Joshua. Joshua was a man of endless cruelty and sadism. This is what this brutal Jewish pogromist did when he captured the city of Jericho: “And they consigned everything that was in the city to slaughter, both husbands and wives, both young and old, oxen and sheep, and donkeys, they destroyed everything with the sword... And the city and everything what was in it they burned with fire" (Joshua 6:20,23). Wars are a constant process of human existence. The killing of warriors is a fairly common event. But the massive and complete murders of women, old people, children, the complete burning of cities is an unjustified atrocity. This is real Jewish fascism. This is complete genocide of other peoples. Where are these so-called anti-fascists? Why are they silent? Why aren't they fighting Jewish fascism? Joshua committed the same atrocity with the city of Ai. He killed all the inhabitants, both men and women. After which: “Jesus burned Ai and turned it into eternal ruins, into a desert, to this day; and he hanged the king of Ai on a tree” (Joshua 8:24-29). The Jewish fascists committed the same atrocity with the cities: Maked, Libna, Lachish, Gazer, Eglon, Hebron, Davir, Hazor. All people, including women and children, were exterminated, cities were burned, all kings were hanged on trees (Joshua 10:28-38). And after this, someone asks: “Why, after all, at all times, all the peoples of the world have not loved and do not love the “poor and unfortunate” Jews?” It is obvious that the texts of the Old Testament contain calls and propaganda for unleashing and waging an aggressive war (Article 354 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) and propaganda of genocide (Article 357 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). 3.10 The Egyptians sheltered the Jews in their country and saved them from starvation. And how did the Jews and their Jewish god repay the Egyptians? The most brutal murders, bullying, robberies. The favorite pastime of the Jewish Lord God is killing old people, women and children, especially first-born children. “At midnight the Lord struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh even to the firstborn of the prisoner who was in prison” (Exodus 12:29). The Jewish fascists celebrate these brutal murders of babies as a great holiday - Easter. That's what Easter is.
Case 4 – Saul's Armorbearer
God does not mention this man's name in the Bible, but speaks of him this way:
And Saul said to his armourbearer, Draw your sword and kill me with it, lest these uncircumcised men come and kill me and mock me. But the squire did not want to, because he was very afraid. Then Saul took his sword and fell on him. His armor bearer, seeing that Saul was dead, fell on his sword and died with him. (1 Samuel 31:4-5)
This man chose to kill himself rather than complete his duties. If Saul did kill himself, it would be the armor bearer's responsibility to remove the king's body from the field or leave it to be mocked, as happened. If he had been caught by the Philistines, he would have died as a brave warrior, but instead he died as a coward who ran away from his duties and allowed his enemies to mock the corpse of their king. Don't be like him. In the most difficult life situations in your life, do not run away from responsibility, but want to fulfill them, and even if necessary, die, but with a clear conscience. God is on the side of the combatants.
Islam, Christianity, God and Modern Terrorism
The Bible is filled with stories of God-blessed massacres and threats of supernatural torture to create an atmosphere of fear and intimidation. To gain political power or tactical advantage. Influence the audience. In particular, to justify the periodic crimes associated with conquest and massacres.
Fortunately, most modern Christians are kinder and wiser than the writers of sacred texts from the Iron Age. In those days, people could not imagine a harmonious world made up of different cultures. Many Christians argue that we should keep only what nourishes people spiritually from the Bible and discard everything else. But what is written with a pen...
When Christians begin to see themselves as warriors of good in a crusade against godless Muslims, and politicians use the Bible to justify cruelty and fanaticism, they act like ISIS militants who use the Koran to justify their own cruelty and fanaticism.
While people try to justify their actions with words that have come down to us from the Iron Age, and call them good and holy, they cannot oppose anything to terrorists who refer to other sacred texts to justify destruction and death in the name of the Almighty.
Case 6 – Zamriy
Zamri was a servant of King Asa. Zamri rebelled against the king, killed him and made himself king. When his crime was discovered...
In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri reigned and reigned for seven days in Tirzah, while the people were besieging Gibethon of the Philistines. When the besieging people heard that Zimri had conspired and killed the king, all Israel made Omri, the military commander, king over Israel that same day in the camp. And Omri and all Israel with him retreated from Gibethon and besieged Tirzah. When Zamri saw that the city had been taken, he entered the inner room of the royal house and lit the royal house on fire behind him and died for his sins, which he sinned by doing what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, walking in the way of Jeroboam and in his sins that he committed, to cause Israel to sin. (1 Samuel 16:15-19)
The suicide of Zamri is very similar to the suicide of Ahithophel, only the end of it was much closer. All the people came to punish him for the crime he had committed. He was a coward and died like a coward. His suicide was only proof of the cowardice in which he lived.
Definition of terrorism
Terrorism is difficult to define. Some believe that these are the actions of illegal groups seeking to gain influence through the use of force. Others argue that the state itself can systematically terrorize its own civilian population. James Poland, author of Understanding Terrorism, defines it as a means of intimidation to achieve control over someone else (the victim).
Terrorism is always deliberate actions: murders, pogroms, threats, in order to intimidate the population and create an atmosphere of fear in order to gain political influence or tactical advantage. The Bible's creators, who wrote it in the Iron Age, did not have explosive devices or media to spread horrific images. They lacked airliners and drones, napalm and nerve gas. But they certainly understood that mass intimidation could be successfully used as a tool of social control. And they sanctified their terrorist inclinations by projecting them onto God.
Case 7 – Judas Iscariot
This is one of the most famous characters in the Bible, who distinguished himself by his cowardice by selling Jesus Christ for 30 pieces of silver. After Jesus was arrested and brought before Pilate, Scripture says that
Then Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that He was condemned and, repenting, returned the thirty pieces of silver to the high priests and elders, saying: I have sinned by betraying innocent blood. They said to him: What is that to us? take a look yourself. And, throwing away the pieces of silver in the temple, he went out, went and hanged himself. (Matthew 27:3-5)
He became a victim of his own baseness. How good it would be if he came to Jesus Christ with repentance. He would have received forgiveness, just as Peter received, who refused Jesus three times, but he came to ask for forgiveness and received forgiveness from his Savior.
All these seven cases of suicide from the Bible show the reality that suicide is resorted to by weak or cowardly people who do not have the courage to confront reality and the future, or have constant remorse for the cowardice in which they chose to live. Suicide was not and is not a solution. The way out is repentance, and through suicide, some sign a death sentence for themselves and are removed forever from the opportunity to reconcile with God and with people.
Suicide is a phenomenon that is happening more and more often and the statistics are very scary. Especially during adolescence, many attempt suicide. Therefore, it is very important to tell people God's truth about suicide.
In the future, on this Moldova Creștină portal, I will publish several articles in which I will touch on other aspects related to suicide.
