Do you believe in slavery? Or is it that "God said so" isn't good enough for you?
Genesis 17:
[12] He that is eight days old among you shall be circumcised; every male throughout your generations, whether born in your house, or bought with your money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring,
[13] both he that is born in your house and he that is bought with your money, shall be circumcised. So shall my covenant be in your flesh an everlasting covenant.
No. But I believe it was.
Do you believe in slavery?
The existence of slavery? Sure.
Or is it that "God said so" isn't good enough for you?
God commanded slavery?
Seriously. I'm well aware that there are OT verses that I don't think "fit" without excessive "interpretation" (I'm shocked that an old guy like you didn't jump right to the she-bears). But were any of them the covenany sign of God's family?
Or do you take anythign in Scripture that you disagree with and make it symbolic (like the Eucharist)?
