It is right and a positive duty to do what Jesus said not to do?
As Brotha Info Moetry has pointed out you've employed a great number of words here showing how the bible contradicts itself. Whose side are you on?
Sister river
What you stated can be easily be put forward in a good argument.
Each passage and reference in the bible.. each taken from BOOKS and condensed into one place. Are and is taken from different writings, ( John, Matthew, etc... ) that took place at different times , by different people and with different interpretations of the same thing.
They all are on the same subject. They don't contradict, just explained by several interpretors. If I say something.. and someone else say the same thing worded differently the same meaning is there. The delivery was different and can be misinterpreted and may seem contradictory to someone.
Understanding while reading the bible comes in discerning.
That the same thing is being discussed.
The points are the same.
It is hard to read the bible. Ask before ever reading.
That understanding is achieved from the reading.
At first your eyes will tire and you may fined it boring or contradictory.. or something. Misinterpretations too can be achieved. That is how years ago.
Killing by the church of those who threatened.
The hold achieved and possible, and those who threatened the control of
the Church's teachings ( the control over those who supplied money.. the root tool ) used scripture to kill and justify it.
Slavery was justified the same way..we had to be dehumanized and made the one's who caused the fall from grace.
Mormons teach.. Cain slew Able..that is why his skin turned black. We are seen as the evil race using that doctrine twist.
Mormons wear lucky underwear.. all the time.. so what is more off.
The belief in lucky underwear or the false doctrine of one man turned black in skin color when he killed his brother.
It is a metaphor of some kind.
Relates to having a dark heart.
Then some how.. it became our dark skin.
A black heart.
If you kill you supposedly have one.
Mormons state we are black because in that time we were Cain.
The one whose skin turned black.
Then why didn't the Indians from India become enslaved like those from Africa.
In South Africa they had during Apartheid a comb test to decide who could be privileged.
It was their way of telling Indians that were there from Africans..
The saying I heard growing up that whites would say was .. it is hard to tell one black man from another. They all look alike.
Or should it have been? There is no need to be able to tell one black man from another. " I am going to mistreat you all the same."
So the comb test was discriminatory type of test.
In South Africa those who could run a fine tooth comb
thru their hair got rights and better treatment.
So the Indians from India have never suffered.
They were used by Europe and Europe settled into South Africa.
Believers of the bible who do not understanding it.
Those who do not talking personally with GOD.
Peace be Still means .. pray to him and wait. No longer let the situation worry you. Do all you can humanly do about it, and let him move on it. He can't come down personally but the situation will improve or get better. Your condition will change. Your eyes will opened. Someone out of no where shows up and helps. It is a blessing. That person may be a total stranger. It may be that homeless guy that tells you something after you stop to give him a dollar. The answer may come out of the mouth of babes. Listen.. listen.. trust him and listen.
Listen.. to your thought, trust you. The answer, and solution is in your thought process sometimes. GOD does speak.. it will be in your conscience and in dreams. He works thru others so be still. After giving it all up to him.
Trust he will provide is the summation. To each and every one of us. This exist.
Trust him and in private pray for understanding of what is read.
Murder was and still is justified because people think they are doing God's will.
They are breaking the commandment.. tho shall not kill.
If a man goes to the military and kills another during war.
He has sinned.
He has let another MAN.
Thru blind following with no true justification.
Have him break God's commandment.
If I kill in self defense.
Knowing GOD knows my heart.
Have I violated the relationship with my Creator?
I could be at peace.. but the question would linger. Until I meet my maker.
Some young Soldiers suffer from the killing they have to do.
Young boys now men that can't come to grips with it.
They may have gone against a fundamental belief.
The followers of any teaching who don't understand can and will be mislead.
The TEN things we are asked to keep.. above all.
Are the most violated Ten
simple things I have ever seen.
God is NEVER WRONG. GOD IS!
