Well, I've learned one thing by reading this thread: MB stands for Much Baloney.

That is no competent answer. Abraham's times and actions have often been claimed to be "under grace," since the Law had not been given, to justify tithing as being under grace. Was all thus under grace, and thus part of what Christians under grace should be doing?

It is not false that Abraham plundered and killed and gave a tenth of the spoils to a priest in the area. Unless you think the scriptures are false. Are you going to follow Abraham's example?

If restaurants open back up, it's going to be hard to eat with those masks on.

Who I'm sure said, "Thanks a Lot!" Alright. Still, if you attack and plunder regions and kill the people and take the spoils, will you give a tenth to a priest?

Was Abraham a barbarian? Yes or No.? ed. Alright, I remember that you did answer that before, and said No. The only thing left, then, is for you to explain your reasoning-- if that's what it should be called-- why one man [Abe] who plundered towns and killed people is NOT a barbarian, and...

No bait-and-switch here. Next time you plunder an area and kill the people, are you going to tithe the spoils?

I know that you're just dying to tell us. Ain't you?

So, are you going give the local priest a tenth next time you kill and plunder?

This began March 26 for most of Texas.The date being discussed is May 5-- ;an interesting 40 days. Get ready for some illustrations if it happens this way.

This is some of the craziest thinking I have ever seen. Abraham kills the people and takes the spoils, and he is NOT a barbarian; and I have never done any such thing and you say I AM. I think you're too ignorant to discuss anything rationally.

Nope. And if that is true, and I do what Abraham did-- attack towns, kill the people and take the spoils and give a local priest a tenth-- then I would not be a barbarian...unless Abraham also was. Yet you put that name to me. Yes or No: was Abraham a barbarian? Yes or No: am I a barbarian?

Abraham was a barbarian?

Let's hear them.

When someone tells me that, I respond that next time I plunder an area, kill the people, and take the spoils, I will look up a local priest and give him a tenth. It's all under grace-- not law-- as the point is made.

We can? Okay.

All except me, anyway.

A day doesn't tell anybody anything.

I think I've seen a few of those Lincoln drivers start to drift into my lane until I sound my horn.

Continuing on, He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself [John 19:18-19]. Where is the one that you...
