Hashem hates Human Sacrifice

Deuteronomy12:31-32
31 You shall not do so to Hashem your God: for every abomination to Hashem, which he hates, have they done to their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they burn in the fire to their gods. 32 Whatever thing I command you, that you shall observe to do: you shall not add thereto, nor diminish from it.

The Romans have a lot of you guys believing he change his mind.

Deuteronomy 18:10 There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices sorcery, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,

It's a story of what not to do to jeopardize your happiness and state of mind.

Making promises that might cause you that..

@op, this jew god of yours is a certified maniac.

Ezekiel 20
25 So I gave them other statutes that were not good and laws through which they could not live; 26 I defiled them through their gifts—the sacrifice of every firstborn—that I might fill them with horror so they would know that I am the Lord.’

Here’s HaShit again.

Leviticus 27
But nothing that a person owns and devotes[k] to the Lord—whether a human being or an animal or family land—may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy to the Lord.

29 “‘No person devoted to destruction[l] may be ransomed; they are to be put to death.

Another thing op, Abraham did sacrifice Isaac in the original story. Later on, people with different agendas than the original author inserted the”angel of the Lord” and the sacrificial ram.
Re: God Hates Human Sacrifice by KnownUnknown: 11:06am On Sep 02, 2022
The God was talking to Abraham without any help until the "angel of the lord" was inserted and started speaking for and as God. When you cross out the confused angel of the lord (who doesn't kwow if he is an angel or god), the story flows better and you see that Abraham returned to his servants by himself without Isaac. Here:


9 When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. 10 Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.11 [s]But the angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!”

“Here I am,” he replied.

12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.”

13 Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram[a] caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 So Abraham called that place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.”

15 The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time 16 and said, [/s
]“I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, 18 and through your offspring[b] all nations on earth will be blessed,[c] because you have obeyed me.”

19 Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set off together for Beersheba. And Abraham stayed in Beersheba.

According to the Bible humans are supposed to live on this planet forever as youths but the sin of one PERFECT man brought death to the entire human race.
It's the SACRIFICE of a perfect human life that can redeem mankind so mankind need it for our salvation! Psalms 49:7-9
So Jesus is the Sacrificial lamb that takes away the sin of the world! Isaiah 53:7

Lol. Your explanation suits the narrative that biblical Jesus sacrificed his time, comfort etc for mankind.... If he sacrificed his life, then his body would have remained in the tomb as a remembrance.... But here is the thing; it won't go well with the resurrection narrative

The body was taken away by those angels at the graveyard Jesus didn't resurrect with that body anymore he became a life giving spirit at his resurrection! 1Corinthians 15:45

That's a spirit being materialized in human form to prove that Jesus is alive, because the human body has been taken away his disciples can't recognize the spirit being easily as he uses different materialised bodies to appear to them!

I think you have ran out of ideas recently

So the implication of your statement is that body and spirit is of same nature. Since according to your good book...the resurrected spirit was touched...(sense of feeling) ?

In one episode the women heard a voice not to touch biblical Jesus for He had not ascended to the father.

In another episode:


Luke 24
37 But they were terrified and frightened, and SUPPOSED they had seen a SPIRIT. 38.And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39. Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for A SPIRIT DOES NOT HAVE FLESH and BONES as you see.


* The reporter of the text used the word "supposed" ...which means they didn't see a spirit..
* For A spirit does not .... ( This is an established statement/fact according to luke, if you distort this fact, you have made the biblical character a liar. Your narrative would be best suited for the statement; For spirit does not...
"For A spirit.. is statement of fact"

*So when you say his body transformed then you are the one actually reporting not Luke

Kai religion has even made people not to grab simple English on their own, even if this things are just stories..

In the bible, whn action is thought to be done in the heart then it is assumed to be done.
For example anyone that listed after a woman in his heart has committed sin already as if he has done it.
