We have protection. If you want it.
We buy insurance, guns, security alarms, and we pay taxes for first responders
so that we can be protected from the harms this world has in store for us. Sin
is the issue, and sin is the one plague that can destroy you with one choice. God
setup statues and laws for the family to protect it from the evil desires that
reside in us all. If you choose to follow them, we can be safe from the horrific
disasters that sin wants to impart on the family.
‘For everyone who curses his
father or his mother shall surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or
his mother. His blood shall be upon him. ‘The man who commits adultery with
another man’s wife, he who commits adultery with his neighbor’s wife, the
adulterer and the adulteress, shall surely be put to death. The man who lies
with his father’s wife has uncovered his father’s nakedness; both of them shall
surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both
of them shall surely be put to death. They have committed perversion. Their
blood shall be upon them. If a man lies
with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an
abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.
If a man marries a woman and her mother, it is wickedness. They shall be burned
with fire, both he and they, that there may be no wickedness among you. If a
man mates with an animal, he shall surely be put to death, and you shall kill
the animal. If a woman approaches any
animal and mates with it, you shall kill the woman and the animal. They shall
surely be put to death. Their blood is upon them. ‘If a man takes his sister,
his father’s daughter or his mother’s daughter, and sees her nakedness and she
sees his nakedness, it is a wicked thing. And they shall be cut off in the
sight of their people. He has uncovered his sister’s nakedness. He shall bear
his guilt. If a man lies with a woman during her sickness and uncovers her
nakedness, he has exposed her flow, and she has uncovered the flow of her
blood. Both of them shall be cut off from their people. ‘You shall not uncover
the nakedness of your mother’s sister nor of your father’s sister, for that
would uncover his near of kin. They shall bear their guilt. If a man lies with his uncle’s wife, he has
uncovered his uncle’s nakedness. They shall bear their sin; they shall die
childless. If a man takes his brother’s
wife, it is an unclean thing. He has uncovered his brother’s nakedness. They
shall be childless.” Leviticus 20:9-21 NKJV
