Do you regard these verses as infallible guidelines important to the U.S. in order to insure its survival?

Good question.

I was thinking about this idea this morning.

The relationships that mankind have with one another

including the sexual ones (as a parable or type)

reflect or mirror the relationship that society and individuals

have with God!

Same sex sexual relationships are actually

a mirror image of how mankind is worshiping itself and its

own intellect and "morality" instead of worshiping God!

Sex outside marriage reflects how our priorities and

allegiances are so mixed up and inconsistent.

Sex with animals shows how we worship the creation

instead of the creator (very shallow and incorrect)!

It is a mirror image and this describes roots of problems

as well!

In marriage, the man represents God yet he is to put

his wife in priority and even give his life for her if needed and

women represents the Bride of Christ (all believers) and is

responsible to respect her husband.

They both have a huge responsibility and the man

of the house actually has more responsibility in ways.

It is not that the man is to boss the woman around

or that the woman is to do housework while the man

drinks beer and watches sports. It is totally different

than that.

They are both to seek the Lord first on

everything and are to help one another and be loving

towards one another as the first priority.

One is not more important than the other,

yet the husband is to be leader, protector,

and provider while the wife is to be in support and

add in what she does best as they agree

to do. Both are to listen to God first. They are

a part of one another. They Are equal parts

though the husband is to be the leader,

different roles only- not that one is greater or more

important than the other - before God they

Are the same and all other situations or

any inequality (real or preceived inequality)

or any injustice done by mankind will be

ammended in the heavenly kingdom!

The part about sacrificing babies to false gods

certainly also applies. It mirrors how we disrespect

God altogether since we were made in the image of

God. It is probably the worst of all of them.

Notice how all of this has to do with the central family

unit and its demise.

There's lots more ,for example:

Leviticus 11:7 You shall not eat of the swine.

19:19 You shall not wear clothing made of two kinds of material

Here's a good one: Lev 15:1 At the end of seven years, you must cancel all debts.

What does that have to do with anyone's survival? Excewpt maybe the last one

The earth itself vomited out its inhabitants.

The worst of these sins was passing children through the fire to molech devils.

This made earth itself sick.

So when US doesn't allow this type of sin, then we will be blessed. Abortion is a curse on a nation. In the OT it is written that when the people had got too adulterous... their children were brought forth to the butchers.

We have national laws against most of these, but not for abortions. In WA we have laws about abusing animals sexually or sexually abusing children.

Another thing to consider is the promise that when we bless Israel, we bless ourselves. And when we curse Israel, we curse ourselves.

So when we the US pressure Israel to give up more land (that they gained in self defense) or the control over Jerusalem (cursing them), then we receive a curse that makes us more vulnerable to terrorists also. And the curse comes in natural disasters.

The US pressured Israel to withdraw from Gaza & now all hell has broke loose & Christians were martyred. And then we lost same amount of land by Hurricane Katrina. Now US has pressured Israel to turn control of Jerusalem over to others (even terrorists). And Hurricane Ike came around again.

I don't think Biblical verses can save our country. The Bible has been around much longer than the United States. It hasn't stopped us from avoiding the point we are currently at. The only way our country can be saved is if people come to their senses and realize we are living far beyond our means. Also, the golden rule should be the most important rule for us to live by.

He is the son of God but also the son of man. By being the son of God and being birthed from Mary. Born into a world of sinners so that he may save them and offer then eternity in heaven. And he also saved those who had died prior to that. Before Christ, people got rid of their sins through animal sacrifices but Jesus came to be the ultimate sacrifice. He died as the perfect sacrifice so we can be eternally blessed by God.

Interesting that you left out the rest of that stanza, where it prohibits the eating of shellfish. Guess you get to pick and choose which bronze-age laws you think apply, and which do not, right?

I say go ahead and have your lobster and sleep with whoever you want (as long as they're consenting adults). I don't think I need any law to tell me not to screw animals or throw my children (or my seed, which ain't exactly the same thing) into a fire.

Thanks just the same.

No, none of these things are remotely relate to any of the US' current problems. However, if you can establish and objective and compelling casual relationship between these and anything that the US' survival is dependent on, I'll be happy to consider it.

The United States IS NOT and will never be a Christian nation.

Therefore your buybull has no relevence to its laws or survival.

The Roman Empire was doing pretty well until Christianity started catching on.

Not to mention all the great Asian empires that had never heard of Christianity. Some of these great empires were Pagen, some secular. Christianity isn't the only way.

I believe there is a difference between the words "insure" and "ensure" and that you should look them up.

I like how we're in some of the worst economic times in US history and people are concerned with whether or not guys sleep with other guys. You are the poster child for what the government wants: Complete ignorance.

Congrats.

the TRUTH will lead you to God naturally, The lies will BLIND them from seeing the TRUTH.

the context in the BIBLE & the QURAN are the TRUTH God guild BUT the religion, places of worship, church or mosque are ONLY Names.
