Why yes He does, according to the Bible. There are many instances of God telling the Israelites to make war against various nations. He even tells them to wipe some completely off the face of the earth.
"How else could we spend millions of dollars to oppose abortion --- despite no clear biblical argument for or against it..."
How about the sixth commandment --- "Thou shalt not murder."
How about the numerous nations -- including Israel, that God punished with war, even to utter destruction, for sacrificing their children to Molech.
Lev 20:2 Moreover, you shall say to the Israelites, Any one of the Israelites or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel who gives any of his children to Molech [the fire god worshiped with human sacrifices] shall surely be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones. Lev 20:3 I also will set My face against that man [opposing him, withdrawing My protection from him, and excluding him from My covenant] and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his children to Molech, defiling My sanctuary and profaning My holy name. Lev 20:4 And if the people of the land do at all hide their eyes from the man when he gives one of his children [as a burnt offering] to Molech [the fire god] and they overlook it or neglect to take legal action to punish him, winking at his sin, and do not kill him [as My law requires], Lev 20:5 Then I will set My face against that man and against his family and will cut him off from among their people, him and all who follow him to [unfaithfulness to Me, and thus] play the harlot after Molech.
I challenge "Rev." Villines to pick a Bible up and read it sometime. Either his eyes will really be opened or he'll start blathering something about a god of love could not really do the things in the Bible. I hope he and those who think like him are not expecting the gods they make up in their minds to save them. They'll be disappointed.
The reason they don't see the truth is because they are blind to it. No matter how many times the Bible says it, they'll still refuse to believe it. Until the Holy Spirit opens their eyes, they just won't see.
he sounds like a secular humanist.he'd never open a Bible.
But he may like to read up on pacifist hero Henry Thoreau's reply to John Brown's actions in freeing slaves by use of
violence.
