He is citing from Old Testament law on slavery and it does NOT condone slavery, it only mentions that it occurred. In the book of Philemon, we see a case of the slave Philemon who ran away. Paul asks his owner to take him back, but as a brother and to treat him properly. The Bible does not condone slavery in the New Testament, but does not advocate violent upheavals to overturn society. It does advocate trying to change peoples' hearts to change the way things are going. It does say in the New Testament to be in submission to masters (bosses) whether reasonable or unreasonable and God will take care of the rest. Len Anthony's statement is a total misrepresentation of what is taught in the Bible and the transition from the Old Law (Old Testament) to the New Law (New Testament).
It does say in the New Testament that children are to be obedient to their parents and show respect. It does say that they should do that so that one "...may live long upon the face of the earth." Lots of young people who have violated laws because they never learned obedience or respect for authority at home are dying these days, but not by stoning. In the Old Testament, both disrespectful children and adulterers were stoned, but not under the New Law. Jesus himself rescued the woman caught in adultery (what does it tell you about the Jews who were spying on her in her weakness and watching to catch her "...in the very act...." so they could drag her to Jesus?) and wrote in the sand (probably all of the sins the stoners were involved with) and ran off her accusers. He DID tell her to go and SIN NO MORE.
It does say women are to be submissive to their husbands AND it says husbands are to give themselves up for their wives. It does say women are to have their heads covered while at worship and I have gotten into debates with members of the church over that issue. It does say to look on a woman with LUST for her is the same has committing the act, so one must refrain from doing that (good luck with that these days, but it does say it). It also clearly states that divorcing someone for a cause OTHER than infidelity does NOT give a person the right to remarry, so he's right about that one.
He does have a point about the whole Bible being followed like it is taught and that is not being done. The Bible specifically condemns homosexuality and it also forbids a lot of other practices going on and everyone involved is going to be accountable to God.
I have come to the conclusion that I shouldn’t display or act in ways that condone or make adultery look okay. That has included giving up a number of movies, games, TV, and choosing not to have certain posters on my wall personally. Actions aren’t magical, there’s usually a path of being more approving of them prior to committing them. At least that’s my conclusion, and I turned from a lot of issues that may have been pointing in the wrong path.
Yes, the common apologetic is that God was making an allowance for slavery due to the wretchedly sinful nature of the people of the time. I suppose he would do the same today regarding abortion.
