Please Pray For Revival In Canada |
Christian everywhere - please pray for revival in Canada. It just amazes me
how liberal Canada has become and the liberal media (CBC, CTV, Global, etc.)
dislikes the Christian Prime Minister and detests anything Christian.
Homosexuality is a sin according to the Bible. Abortion is a sin according

Canadian official fined for stating biblical stance on homosexuality

February 1, 2007
A city councillor in British Columbia, Canada, has agreed to pay a $1,000
fine and apologize for his remarks about homosexuality, uttered at a public
meeting last summer, rather than face a Human Rights Tribunal. Americans for
Truth's Peter LaBarbera is warning U.S. Christians to pay heed, as they may
be in danger of facing the same kind of censorship.
Hear This Report
A Kamloops (British Columbia) City Council member will pay a hefty fine and
also apologize for comments he made about homosexuality at a public meeting
last summer. Those comments by the local politician led to a complaint being
lodged with Canada's Human Rights Commission and could have proceeded to a
tribunal.
LifeSite News reports that John DeCicco, who is Catholic, made the remarks
at a Kamloops City Council meeting in June of last year and repeated them to
the media afterward, saying that homosexual acts were "not normal and not
natural." A homosexual activist couple filed the human rights complaint
against him in August.
DeCicco has now decided to accept a $1,000 fine and make a statement of
apology in order to avoid a Human Rights Tribunal hearing. However, the
Catholic city official says his opinion has not changed.
Americans for Truth president Peter LaBarbera says his group is warning
Christians in the United States that they may face a choice similar to the
one DeCicco faced if they allow hate crimes legislation to supplant the
First Amendment. "We're saying to American pastors and American politicians,
'What would you do if you were fined a thousand dollars for saying that
homosexual behavior is not normal and is not natural?'" LaBarbera notes.
What happened to the Canadian city councillor in this instance "is an
incredible outrage," the Americans for Truth spokesman asserts. "Free
speech," he laments, "is going the way of the dinosaur in Canada, it seems."
U.S. Christians need to take note of how laws in Canada are forcing its
citizens to suppress their own speech, LaBarbera says. Such self-censorship
puts the opportunity to speak the much-needed truth about homosexuality in
danger of dying out altogether, he warns.
"When you have all the burdens of having to go before a tribunal and having
to issue a public apology and endure public humiliation just for voicing
your beliefs, then there is no longer freedom in that country," the
pro-family advocate observes. "We hope and pray that this never happens in
the United States of America," he says.
LaBarbera advises believers in the U.S. against self-censoring their speech
as he believes many in Canada are choosing to do. Christians, he contends,
must not let the truth die out by allowing themselves to be silenced.

Canada is not the USA. If you want your decadent country to be run by
christian talibans, that's your business. But Canadians don't.
Unfortunately, it seems that Stephen Harper -a.k.a. the lackay- has
nothing more urgent than to make Canada USA's 51st state. I guess it's
a question of language since none of this ***** was happening when
French-speaking Qu=E9b=E9cois were at the head of Canada (see Trudeau,

If this story is true, then it seems to me that the politician in
question is a coward for submitting to all the faggots and the other
swine which comprise Canada's so-called Human Rights Commission.

Homosexuality is a sin according to the Bible. Abortion is a sin according
to the Bible. We need to get back to the Bible.
The Bible that condones intolerance, murder, torture, public stoning for wearing
the wrong clothes on the Sabbath and believes women to have no rights and to be
the property of a man?
Kill People Who Don't Listen to Priests
Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest
who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged
from Israel. (Deuteronomy 17:12 NLT)
Kill Witches
You should not let a sorceress live. (Exodus 22:17 NAB)
Kill Homosexuals
"If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to
death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives." (Leviticus
20:13 NAB)
Kill Fortunetellers
A man or a woman who acts as a medium or fortuneteller shall be put to death
by stoning; they have no one but themselves to blame for their death.
(Leviticus 20:27 NAB)
Death for Hitting Dad
Whoever strikes his father or mother shall be put to death. (Exodus 21:15
NAB)
Death for Cursing Parents
1) If one curses his father or mother, his lamp will go out at the coming of
darkness. (Proverbs 20:20 NAB)
2) All who curse their father or mother must be put to death. They are
guilty of a capital offense. (Leviticus 20:9 NLT)
Death for Adultery
If a man commits adultery with another man's wife, both the man and the
woman must be put to death. (Leviticus 20:10 NLT)
Death for Fornication
A priest's daughter who loses her honor by committing fornication and
thereby dishonors her father also, shall be burned to death. (Leviticus 21:9
NAB)
Death to Followers of Other Religions
Whoever sacrifices to any god, except the Lord alone, shall be doomed.
(Exodus 22:19 NAB)
Kill Nonbelievers
They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers,
with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God
of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
(2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB)
Kill False Prophets
If a man still prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall say to him,
"You shall not live, because you have spoken a lie in the name of the Lord."
When he prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall thrust him through.
(Zechariah 13:3 NAB)
Kill the Entire Town if One Person Worships Another God
Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that
some worthless rabble among you have led their fellow citizens astray by
encouraging them to worship foreign gods. In such cases, you must examine the
facts carefully. If you find it is true and can prove that such a detestable
act has occurred among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all
its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. Then you must pile all the
plunder in the middle of the street and burn it. Put the entire town to the
torch as a burnt offering to the LORD your God. That town must remain a ruin
forever; it may never be rebuilt. Keep none of the plunder that has been set
apart for destruction. Then the LORD will turn from his fierce anger and be
merciful to you. He will have compassion on you and make you a great nation,
just as he solemnly promised your ancestors. "The LORD your God will be
merciful only if you obey him and keep all the commands I am giving you today,
doing what is pleasing to him." (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)
Kill Women Who Are Not Virgins On Their Wedding Night
But if this charge is true (that she wasn't a virgin on her wedding night),
and evidence of the girls virginity is not found, they shall bring the girl to
the entrance of her fathers house and there her townsman shall stone her to
death, because she committed a crime against Israel by her unchasteness in her
father's house. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst. (Deuteronomy
22:20-21 NAB)
Kill Followers of Other Religions.
1) If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife,
or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and
your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far
away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to
him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him. Your
hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in
with you. You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray
from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of
slavery. And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as
this in your midst. (Deuteronomy 13:7-12 NAB)
2) Suppose a man or woman among you, in one of your towns that the LORD your
God is giving you, has done evil in the sight of the LORD your God and has
violated the covenant by serving other gods or by worshiping the sun, the moon,
or any of the forces of heaven, which I have strictly forbidden. When you hear
about it, investigate the matter thoroughly. If it is true that this detestable
thing has been done in Israel, then that man or woman must be taken to the gates
of the town and stoned to death. (Deuteronomy 17:2-5 NLT)
Death for Blasphemy
One day a man who had an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father got into a
fight with one of the Israelite men. During the fight, this son of an Israelite
woman blasphemed the LORD's name. So the man was brought to Moses for judgment.
His mother's name was Shelomith. She was the daughter of Dibri of the tribe of
Dan. They put the man in custody until the LORD's will in the matter should
become clear. Then the LORD said to Moses, "Take the blasphemer outside the
camp, and tell all those who heard him to lay their hands on his head. Then let
the entire community stone him to death. Say to the people of Israel: Those who
blaspheme God will suffer the consequences of their guilt and be punished.
Anyone who blasphemes the LORD's name must be stoned to death by the whole
community of Israel. Any Israelite or foreigner among you who blasphemes the
LORD's name will surely die. (Leviticus 24:10-16 NLT)
Kill False Prophets
1) Suppose there are prophets among you, or those who have dreams about the
future, and they promise you signs or miracles, and the predicted signs or
miracles take place. If the prophets then say, 'Come, let us worship the gods
of foreign nations,' do not listen to them. The LORD your God is testing you to
see if you love him with all your heart and soul. Serve only the LORD your God
and fear him alone. Obey his commands, listen to his voice, and cling to him.
The false prophets or dreamers who try to lead you astray must be put to death,
for they encourage rebellion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of
slavery in the land of Egypt. Since they try to keep you from following the
LORD your God, you must execute them to remove the evil from among you.
(Deuteronomy 13:1-5 NLT)
2) But any prophet who claims to give a message from another god or who
falsely claims to speak for me must die.' You may wonder, 'How will we know
whether the prophecy is from the LORD or not?' If the prophet predicts
something in the LORD's name and it does not happen, the LORD did not give the
message. That prophet has spoken on his own and need not be feared.
(Deuteronomy 18:20-22 NLT)
Infidels and Gays Should Die
So God let them go ahead and do whatever shameful things their hearts
desired. As a result, they did vile and degrading things with each other's
bodies. Instead of believing what they knew was the truth about God, they
deliberately chose to believe lies. So they worshiped the things God made but
not the Creator himself, who is to be praised forever. Amen. That is why God
abandoned them to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the
natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other. And the
men, instead of having normal sexual relationships with women, burned with lust
for each other. Men did shameful things with other men and, as a result,
suffered within themselves the penalty they so richly deserved. When they
refused to acknowledge God, he abandoned them to their evil minds and let them
do things that should never be done. Their lives became full of every kind of
wickedness, sin, greed, hate, envy, murder, fighting, deception, malicious
behavior, and gossip. They are backstabbers, haters of God, insolent, proud,
and boastful. They are forever inventing new ways of sinning and are
disobedient to their parents. They refuse to understand, break their promises,
and are heartless and unforgiving. They are fully aware of God's death penalty
for those who do these things, yet they go right ahead and do them anyway. And,
worse yet, they encourage others to do them, too. (Romans 1:24-32 NLT)
Kill Anyone who Approaches the Tabernacle
For the LORD had said to Moses, 'Exempt the tribe of Levi from the census;
do not include them when you count the rest of the Israelites. You must put the
Levites in charge of the Tabernacle of the Covenant, along with its furnishings
and equipment. They must carry the Tabernacle and its equipment as you travel,
and they must care for it and camp around it. Whenever the Tabernacle is moved,
the Levites will take it down and set it up again. Anyone else who goes too
near the Tabernacle will be executed.' (Numbers 1:48-51 NLT)
Kill People for Working on the Sabbath
The LORD then gave these further instructions to Moses: 'Tell the people of
Israel to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant between
me and you forever. It helps you to remember that I am the LORD, who makes you
holy. Yes, keep the Sabbath day, for it is holy. Anyone who desecrates it must
die; anyone who works on that day will be cut off from the community. Work six
days only, but the seventh day must be a day of total rest. I repeat: Because
the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to
death.' (Exodus 31:12-15 NLT)
2) God's Murders for Stupid Reasons:
Kill Brats
From there Elisha went up to Bethel. While he was on his way, some small
boys came out of the city and jeered at him. "Go up baldhead," they shouted,
"go up baldhead!" The prophet turned and saw them, and he cursed them in the
name of the Lord. Then two shebears came out of the woods and tore forty two of
the children to pieces. (2 Kings 2:23-24 NAB)
God Kills the Curious
And he smote of the men of Beth-shemesh, because they had looked into the
ark of Jehovah, he smote of the people seventy men, `and' fifty thousand men;
and the people mourned, because Jehovah had smitten the people with a great
slaughter. And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before
Jehovah, this holy God? and to whom shall he go up from us? (1Samuel 6:19-20
ASV)
Killed by a Lion
Meanwhile, the LORD instructed one of the group of prophets to say to
another man, "Strike me!" But the man refused to strike the prophet. Then the
prophet told him, "Because you have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, a lion
will kill you as soon as you leave me." And sure enough, when he had gone, a
lion attacked and killed him. (1 Kings 20:35-36 NLT)
Killing the Good Samaritan
The ark of God was placed on a new cart and taken away from the house of
Abinadab on the hill. Uzzah and Ahio, sons of Abinadab guided the cart, with
Ahio walking before it, while David and all the Israelites made merry before the
Lord with all their strength, with singing and with citharas, harps,
tambourines, sistrums, and cymbals.
When they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzzah reached out his hand
to the ark of God to steady it, for the oxen were making it tip. But the Lord
was angry with Uzzah; God struck him on that spot, and he died there before God.
(2 Samuel 6:3-7 NAB)
3) Murdering Children
Kill Sons of Sinners
Make ready to slaughter his sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they
rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants.
(Isaiah 14:21 NAB)
God Will Kill Children
The glory of Israel will fly away like a bird, for your children will die at
birth or perish in the womb or never even be conceived. Even if your children
do survive to grow up, I will take them from you. It will be a terrible day
when I turn away and leave you alone. I have watched Israel become as beautiful
and pleasant as Tyre. But now Israel will bring out her children to be
slaughtered." O LORD, what should I request for your people? I will ask for
wombs that don't give birth and breasts that give no milk. The LORD says, "All
their wickedness began at Gilgal; there I began to hate them. I will drive them
from my land because of their evil actions. I will love them no more because
all their leaders are rebels. The people of Israel are stricken. Their roots
are dried up; they will bear no more fruit. And if they give birth, I will
slaughter their beloved children." (Hosea 9:11-16 NLT)
Kill Men, Women, and Children
"Then I heard the LORD say to the other men, "Follow him through the city
and kill everyone whose forehead is not marked. Show no mercy; have no pity!
Kill them all ? old and young, girls and women and little children. But do not
touch anyone with the mark. Begin your task right here at the Temple." So they
began by killing the seventy leaders. "Defile the Temple!" the LORD commanded.
"Fill its courtyards with the bodies of those you kill! Go!" So they went
throughout the city and did as they were told." (Ezekiel 9:5-7 NLT)
God Kills all the First Born of Egypt
And at midnight the LORD killed all the firstborn sons in the land of Egypt,
from the firstborn son of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn son
of the captive in the dungeon. Even the firstborn of their livestock were
killed. Pharaoh and his officials and all the people of Egypt woke up during
the night, and loud wailing was heard throughout the land of Egypt. There was
not a single house where someone had not died. (Exodus 12:29-30 NLT)
Kill Old Men and Young Women
"You are my battle-ax and sword," says the LORD. "With you I will shatter
nations and destroy many kingdoms. With you I will shatter armies, destroying
the horse and rider, the chariot and charioteer. With you I will shatter men
and women, old people and children, young men and maidens. With you I will
shatter shepherds and flocks, farmers and oxen, captains and rulers. "As you
watch, I will repay Babylon and the people of Babylonia for all the wrong they
have done to my people in Jerusalem," says the LORD. "Look, O mighty mountain,
destroyer of the earth! I am your enemy," says the LORD. "I will raise my fist
against you, to roll you down from the heights. When I am finished, you will be
nothing but a heap of rubble. You will be desolate forever. Even your stones
will never again be used for building. You will be completely wiped out," says
the LORD. (Jeremiah 51:20-26)
(Note that after God promises the Israelites a victory against Babylon, the
Israelites actually get their butts kicked by them in the next chapter. So much
for an all-knowing and all-powerful God.)
God Will Kill the Children of Sinners
If even then you remain hostile toward me and refuse to obey, I will inflict
you with seven more disasters for your sins. I will release wild animals that
will kill your children and destroy your cattle, so your numbers will dwindle
and your roads will be deserted. (Leviticus 26:21-22 NLT)
More Rape and Baby Killing
Anyone who is captured will be run through with a sword. Their little
children will be dashed to death right before their eyes. Their homes will be
sacked and their wives raped by the attacking hordes. For I will stir up the
Medes against Babylon, and no amount of silver or gold will buy them off. The
attacking armies will shoot down the young people with arrows. They will have
no mercy on helpless babies and will show no compassion for the children.
(Isaiah 13:15-18 NLT)
4) Miscellaneous Murders
More of Samson's Murders
(The Lord saves Sampson from standing trial for 30 murders and arson by
allowing him to kill 1000 more men.) When he reached Lehi, and the Philistines
came shouting to meet him, the spirit of the Lord came upon him: the ropes
around his arms become as flax that is consumed by fire and the bonds melted
away from his hands. Near him was the fresh jawbone of an *****; he reached out,
grasped it, and with it killed a thousand men. (Judges 15:14-15 NAB)
Peter Kills Two People
There was also a man named Ananias who, with his wife, Sapphira, sold some
property. He brought part of the money to the apostles, but he claimed it was
the full amount. His wife had agreed to this deception. Then Peter said,
"Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart? You lied to the Holy Spirit, and you
kept some of the money for yourself. The property was yours to sell or not
sell, as you wished. And after selling it, the money was yours to give away.
How could you do a thing like this? You weren't lying to us but to God." As
soon as Ananias heard these words, he fell to the floor and died. Everyone who
heard about it was terrified. Then some young men wrapped him in a sheet and
took him out and buried him. About three hours later his wife came in, not
knowing what had happened. Peter asked her, "Was this the price you and your
husband received for your land?" "Yes," she replied, "that was the price." And
Peter said, "How could the two of you even think of doing a thing like this ?
conspiring together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Just outside that door are
the young men who buried your husband, and they will carry you out, too."
Instantly, she fell to the floor and died. When the young men came in and saw
that she was dead, they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
Great fear gripped the entire church and all others who heard what had happened.
(Acts 5:1-11 NLT)
Mass Murder
This is what the Lord of hosts has to say: 'I will punish what Amalek did
to Israel when he barred his way as he was coming up from Egypt. Go, now,
attack Amalek, and deal with him and all that he has under the ban. Do not
spare him, but kill men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels
and asses.' (1 Samuel 15:2-3 NAB)
You Have to Kill
Cursed be he who does the Lords work remissly, cursed he who holds back his
sword from blood. (Jeremiah 48:10 NAB)
The Danites Kill the Next Town
But the territory of the Danites was too small for them; so the Danites
marched up and attacked Leshem, which they captured and put to the sword. Once
they had taken possession of Lesham, they renamed the settlement after their
ancestor Dan. (Joshua 19:47 NAB)
God Kills Some More
Then the LORD said to me, "Even if Moses and Samuel stood before me pleading
for these people, I wouldn't help them. Away with them! Get them out of my
sight! And if they say to you, 'But where can we go?' tell them, 'This is what
the LORD says: Those who are destined for death, to death; those who are
destined for war, to war; those who are destined for famine, to famine; those
who are destined for captivity, to captivity.' "I will send four kinds of
destroyers against them," says the LORD. "I will send the sword to kill, the
dogs to drag away, the vultures to devour, and the wild animals to finish up
what is left. Because of the wicked things Manasseh son of Hezekiah, king of
Judah, did in Jerusalem, I will make my people an object of horror to all the
kingdoms of the earth." (Jeremiah 15:1-4 NLT)
God Promises More Killing
I will make Mount Seir utterly desolate, killing off all who try to escape
and any who return. I will fill your mountains with the dead. Your hills, your
valleys, and your streams will be filled with people slaughtered by the sword.
I will make you desolate forever. Your cities will never be rebuilt. Then you
will know that I am the LORD. (Ezekiel 35:7-9 NLT)
The Angel of Death
My angel will go before you and bring you to the Amorites, Hittites,
Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites, and Jebusites; and I will wipe them out.
(Exodus 23:23 NAB)
Destruction of Ai
Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid or discouraged. Take the
entire army and attack Ai, for I have given to you the king of Ai, his people,
his city, and his land. You will destroy them as you destroyed Jericho and its
king. But this time you may keep the captured goods and the cattle for
yourselves. Set an ambush behind the city." So Joshua and the army of Israel
set out to attack Ai. Joshua chose thirty thousand fighting men and sent them
out at night with these orders: "Hide in ambush close behind the city and be
ready for action. When our main army attacks, the men of Ai will come out to
fight as they did before, and we will run away from them. We will let them
chase us until they have all left the city. For they will say, 'The Israelites
are running away from us as they did before.' Then you will jump up from your
ambush and take possession of the city, for the LORD your God will give it to
you. Set the city on fire, as the LORD has commanded. You have your orders."
So they left that night and lay in ambush between Bethel and the west side of
Ai. But Joshua remained among the people in the camp that night.
Early the next morning Joshua roused his men and started toward Ai,
accompanied by the leaders of Israel. They camped on the north side of Ai, with
a valley between them and the city. That night Joshua sent five thousand men to
lie in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city. So they
stationed the main army north of the city and the ambush west of the city.
Joshua himself spent that night in the valley. When the king of Ai saw the
Israelites across the valley, he and all his army hurriedly went out early the
next morning and attacked the Israelites at a place overlooking the Jordan
Valley. But he didn't realize there was an ambush behind the city. Joshua and
the Israelite army fled toward the wilderness as though they were badly beaten,
and all the men in the city were called out to chase after them. In this way,
they were lured away from the city. There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel
who did not chase after the Israelites, and the city was left wide open.
Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Point your spear toward Ai, for I will give
you the city." Joshua did as he was commanded. As soon as Joshua gave the
signal, the men in ambush jumped up and poured into the city. They quickly
captured it and set it on fire. When the men of Ai looked behind them, smoke
from the city was filling the sky, and they had nowhere to go. For the
Israelites who had fled in the direction of the wilderness now turned on their
pursuers. When Joshua and the other Israelites saw that the ambush had
succeeded and that smoke was rising from the city, they turned and attacked the
men of Ai. Then the Israelites who were inside the city came out and started
killing the enemy from the rear. So the men of Ai were caught in a trap, and all
of them died. Not a single person survived or escaped. Only the king of Ai was
taken alive and brought to Joshua.
When the Israelite army finished killing all the men outside the city, they
went back and finished off everyone inside. So the entire population of Ai was
wiped out that day ? twelve thousand in all. For Joshua kept holding out his
spear until everyone who had lived in Ai was completely destroyed. Only the
cattle and the treasures of the city were not destroyed, for the Israelites kept
these for themselves, as the LORD had commanded Joshua. So Ai became a
permanent mound of ruins, desolate to this very day. Joshua hung the king of Ai
on a tree and left him there until evening. At sunset the Israelites took down
the body and threw it in front of the city gate. They piled a great heap of
stones over him that can still be seen today. (Joshua 8:1-29 NLT)
Killing at Jericho
When the people heard the sound of the horns, they shouted as loud as they
could. Suddenly, the walls of Jericho collapsed, and the Israelites charged
straight into the city from every side and captured it. They completely
destroyed everything in it ? men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep,
donkeys ? everything. (Joshua 6:20-21 NLT)
God Kills an Extended Family
"You have done more evil than all who lived before you. You have made other
gods and have made me furious with your gold calves. And since you have turned
your back on me, I will bring disaster on your dynasty and kill all your sons,
slave or free alike. I will burn up your royal dynasty as one burns up trash
until it is all gone. I, the LORD, vow that the members of your family who die
in the city will be eaten by dogs, and those who die in the field will be eaten
by vultures.'" Then Ahijah said to Jeroboam's wife, "Go on home, and when you
enter the city, the child will die. All Israel will mourn for him and bury him.
He is the only member of your family who will have a proper burial, for this
child is the only good thing that the LORD, the God of Israel, sees in the
entire family of Jeroboam. And the LORD will raise up a king over Israel who
will destroy the family of Jeroboam. This will happen today, even now! Then
the LORD will shake Israel like a reed whipped about in a stream. He will
uproot the people of Israel from this good land that he gave their ancestors and
will scatter them beyond the Euphrates River, for they have angered the LORD by
worshiping Asherah poles. He will abandon Israel because Jeroboam sinned and
made all of Israel sin along with him." (1 Kings 14:9-16 NLT)
Mass Murder
The men of Israel withdrew through the territory of the Benjaminites,
putting to the sword the inhabitants of the city, the livestock, and all they
chanced upon. Moreover they destroyed by fire all the cities they came upon.
(Judges 20:48 NAB)
The Angel of Death
That night the angel of the Lord went forth and struck down one hundred and
eighty five thousand men in the Assyrian camp. Early the next morning, there
they were, all the corpuses of the dead. (2 Kings 19:35 NAB)
Kill Your Neighbors
(Moses) stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, "All of you who are
on the LORD's side, come over here and join me." And all the Levites came. He
told them, "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Strap on your
swords! Go back and forth from one end of the camp to the other, killing even
your brothers, friends, and neighbors." The Levites obeyed Moses, and about
three thousand people died that day. Then Moses told the Levites, "Today you
have been ordained for the service of the LORD, for you obeyed him even though
it meant killing your own sons and brothers. Because of this, he will now give
you a great blessing." (Exodus 32:26-29 NLT)
Kill the Family of Sinners
And Joshua said to Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to the LORD God
of Israel, and make confession to him; and tell me now what thou hast done, hide
it not from me. And Achan answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned
against the LORD God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done. When I saw among
the spoils a goodly Babylonish garment, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a
wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them, and
behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under
it." [Note that the sin is not looting, but failing to give the loot to the
treasury of the Lord.] "So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent,
and behold, it was hid in his tent, and the silver under it. And they took them
from the midst of the tent, and brought them to Joshua, and to all the children
of Israel, and laid them out before the LORD. And Joshua, and all Israel with
him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge
of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his
sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them to the valley of
Achor. And Joshua said, why hast thou troubled us? the LORD shall trouble thee
this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them with fire,
after they had stoned them with stones. And they raised over him a great heap
of stones to this day. So the LORD turned from the fierceness of his anger:
wherefore the name of that place was called the valley of Achor to this day.
(Joshua 7:19-26 Webster's Bible)
Kill Followers of Other Religions
While the Israelites were camped at Acacia, some of the men defiled
themselves by sleeping with the local Moabite women. These women invited them
to attend sacrifices to their gods, and soon the Israelites were feasting with
them and worshiping the gods of Moab. Before long Israel was joining in the
worship of Baal of Peor, causing the LORD's anger to blaze against his people.
The LORD issued the following command to Moses: "Seize all the ringleaders and
execute them before the LORD in broad daylight, so his fierce anger will turn
away from the people of Israel." So Moses ordered Israel's judges to execute
everyone who had joined in worshiping Baal of Peor. Just then one of the
Israelite men brought a Midianite woman into the camp, right before the eyes of
Moses and all the people, as they were weeping at the entrance of the
Tabernacle. When Phinehas son of Eleazar and grandson of Aaron the priest saw
this, he jumped up and left the assembly. Then he took a spear and rushed after
the man into his tent. Phinehas thrust the spear all the way through the man's
body and into the woman's stomach. So the plague against the Israelites was
stopped, but not before 24,000 people had died. (Numbers 25:1-9 NLT)
Murder
At the customary time for offering the evening sacrifice, Elijah the prophet
walked up to the altar and prayed, "O LORD, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,
prove today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant. Prove that I
have done all this at your command. O LORD, answer me! Answer me so these
people will know that you, O LORD, are God and that you have brought them back
to yourself." Immediately the fire of the LORD flashed down from heaven and
burned up the young bull, the wood, the stones, and the dust. It even licked up
all the water in the ditch! And when the people saw it, they fell on their
faces and cried out, "The LORD is God! The LORD is God!" Then Elijah
commanded, "Seize all the prophets of Baal. Don't let a single one escape!" So
the people seized them all, and Elijah took them down to the Kishon Valley and
killed them there. (1 Kings 18:36-40 NLT)
Kill All of Babylon
"Go up, my warriors, against the land of Merathaim and against the people of
Pekod. Yes, march against Babylon, the land of rebels, a land that I will judge!
Pursue, kill, and completely destroy them, as I have commanded you," says the
LORD. "Let the battle cry be heard in the land, a shout of great destruction".
(Jeremiah 50:21-22 NLT)
Micah Kills a Whole Town
Then, with Micah's idols and his priest, the men of Dan came to the town of
Laish, whose people were peaceful and secure. They attacked and killed all the
people and burned the town to the ground. There was no one to rescue the
residents of the town, for they lived a great distance from Sidon and had no
allies nearby. This happened in the valley near Beth-rehob.Then the people of
the tribe of Dan rebuilt the town and lived there. They renamed the town Dan
after their ancestor, Israel's son, but it had originally been called Laish.
(Judges 18:27-29 NLT) (Note that God approves of this slaughter in verse 6.)

Homosexuality is a sin according to the Bible. Abortion is a sin according
to the Bible. We need to get back to the Bible. This is an interesting
article from OneNewsNow.com.
Oh, please. Spare is the bull *****. Get back to your Bible if you want.
If you don't approve of abortion, don't have one. If you are so
concerned about the sanctity of human life remember that the commandment
about killing that you like to refer to in the abortion issue should
also apply to the issue of capital punishment. If you want to pray in
public, go ahead, but please don't except me to join in, or even to be
quiet in order to indulge your superstitious belief. Instead, I will
refer you to the New Testament to remind you about what Jesus said about
making a spectacle of prayer by doing it publicly, when it should be in
private, between you and God.

I dont know...sounds like your whole life has been spent in the
Bible, and He hasn't even bothered to put two cents into your pocket--unlike
Mr. LaBarbera, who you can be reasonably sure makes a comfortable living off
his "truth".
