Normal Things The Bible Forbids But We Still Do - Biblical by iliyande(m): 9:40pm On Dec 19, 2015
Many Christians nowadays commit sin after sin on a daily basis without even realizing it. See, the Bible forbids many of the things people love to do and in all honesty there’s nothing wrong with most of these things, at least by modern standards and the current status quo.

Consulting Psychics

Leviticus 19:31 reads:

“Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.”

Truth be told, the those who spend a fortune getting “advice” from such con artists deserve whatever they get.

Women wearing sexy clothes

1 Timothy 2:9 reads:

“I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety.”

Masturbating

1 Corinthians 6:18 reads:

“Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.”

Watching Porn

Matthew 5:28 reads:

“But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”

Wearing bling

1 Timothy 2:9 reads:

“Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments.”

Eating bacon or pork in general

Leviticus 11:4 reads:

“Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.”

Tearing your clothes

Leviticus 10:6 reads:

“And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled.”

Getting tattooed

Leviticus 19:28 reads:

“Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.”

Translation: The little dolphin you tattooed on your butt cheek at age seventeen during spring break while you were drunk off your ass has ultimately condemned you eternally.

Getting remarried after getting divorced

Mark 10:11–12 reads:

“Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.”

Gossiping

Leviticus 19:16 reads:

“Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor; I am the LORD.”

Women Speaking in Church

1 Corinthians 14:34 reads:

“Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.”

Being gay and stuff

Leviticus 18:22 reads:

“Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.”

You can be the most kind-hearted, the most generous, the most helpful, the best Christian who won’t commit any of the other sins included in the Bible but your sexual preference makes you an illegal alien . . . from heaven, that is.

Premarital sex

There’s no point in listing one of the countless chapters and verses in the Bible that states premarital sex is a sin. That’s a fundamental Christian belief so there you go.

pulling out

Genesis 38:9 reads:

“And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.”

Divorcing with your lying, cheating partner

1 Corinthians 7:10–11 reads:

“To the married I give this charge (not I, but the Lord): the wife should not separate from her husband (but if she does, she should remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband), and the husband should not divorce his wife.”

Don’t pay attention to your spouse if he’s cheating on you, beats the crap out of you, doesn’t work, makes you feel less like a human, and so on; especially if you’re a woman. Just suck it up and honor your marriage. Ahhh! Sometimes I can truly understand how feminists got so mad at men and society.

Not All the law in the old testament apply to christians, some law are given to the isrealite to deal with difficult situation they find themselves in, for example, this law in liviticus was given to the isrealite to test there obedient to God;

Leviticus 11:4:
“Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of
them that chew the cud, or of them that
divide the hoof: as the camel, because
he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.”

These laws seem to have been intended. As a test of the people's
obedience, as Adam was forbidden to eat of the tree of knowledge .
