Never accepting sin for an all inclusive cause as more and more teach and do today , or for any cause . But that is todays message , and its why I stand firm against it . Folks need CHRIST and they need the ONE of the BIBLE . Thus onward my friends and swidl and sound out praises to the LORD . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am the Lord your God." (Leviticus 19:4) This hearkens back to what we read about in Exodus... Exodus 20:23 "Do not make for yourselves gods of silver or gold to be worshiped in addition to me." Exodus 32:4 "Then Aaron took the gold, melted it down, and molded it into the shape of a calf. When the people saw it, they exclaimed, “O Israel, these are the gods who brought you out of the land of Egypt!” Exodus 34:17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not go over your vineyard a second time or pick up the grapes that have fallen. Leave them for the poor and the foreigner. I am the Lord your God." (Leviticus 19:9-10) This touched me the first time I read it and it still does. It shows how our Lord cares about the 'down and out'...those struggling to survive. He has a tender heart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Leviticus 19:13-15) These passages deal with things such as committing petty frauds, or not scrupling to violate truth in transactions of business, ridiculing bodily infirmities, or circulating stories to the prejudice of others. In opposition to these bad habits, a spirit of humanity and brotherly kindness is strongly enforced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
