Spiritually Speaking, should you kill your slaves that work on Sunday?

The Bible says you can have slaves and that you're suppose to kill people that work on Sunday, and that you're not suppose to kill your slaves. But what if you catch your slaves working on Sunday. They like to pick up some overtime once and a while. I just can't keep killing all these slaves, they're pretty expensive.

I'm just trying to be a good Christian.

    Yes. But of course none of the Christians I know have the commitment to do so.

    Your lack of understanding the Bible scares me. There are certain spiritual applications for those verses that you missed in the Old Testament. For example, "stones" represents: "Christ the cornerstone, Rock" in some places I think. Think again, I don't remember what good Bible Studies Bible Teacher Zin Yi was mentioning about this subject.

    it particularly is Saturday here interior the US. Sunday is the day of "worship" for Christains. I do no longer something particular or distinctive on Sunday's - I supply prayers of thank you and requests on a daily basis and night. i'm unsure what you propose approximately starring the question - yet your faith is genuine to you and that's all that concerns!!!!!!

    Nowhere does the Bible prohibit work on the first day of the week ! ! ! ! ! ! !

    Where did you get that ridiculous idea ?

    If you really are trying to be a "good Christian" please research what day the Sabbath is.

    I recommend a book by:- Samuele Bacchiocchi, entitled:-

    "From Sabbath to Sunday"

    May God bless you as you study His Word

    Dear "good" Christian.

    The Bible does not say you can have slaves.

    The Bible does not say you are to kill people who work on Sunday.

    A good Christian would know this.

    Don't worry, dude! I have good news! Those rules are so old that you don't have to follow them anymore! Gods like to set down rules for certain people during certain times. I don't know why, but who am I to question God, right?

    Sunday? I thought it was the Sabbath, and the Sabbath is not Sunday.

    why do you mock Christianity when the Jews also follow the same book. you cant pick and choose who you want to make fun of, and by making fun of the old testament you are making fun of jews which makes you anti-semitic
