maryannah:

pongwa:

as far as I'm concerned abortion is murder

pongwa:
I did not see abortion in that passage u put up but something close like 'miscarriage' induce by a certain water. its left to you to link them together.




if you are a child of God and you have a personal relationship with Him. why dont you ask Him yourself instead of confusing people here. we want solution not complications

jstriker442:
that was'nt constructed like a question though. Jst read the whole of chap. 5 and u'd find der is a reason for that. Ts a curse for a suspected unfaithful wife. The bible doesn't support killing of any kind (innocent)

pongwa:
your proof shows abortion is a curse so anybody that does it is already cursed......choice is yours

ogaprime:
Madam op, if you want to quote bible passage, quote from KJV and other acknowledged translation and not NIV. Thank you....

jstriker442:
Please get your facts right and stop deceiving people

chineloSA:
Madame you are the one who is confused.

According to the bible there is no unmarried couple.

There is married and unmarried ( single) and divorced and widowed.

Cohabitation is not even supported by the bible. If one has a baby without being married ( single ) that's adultery even if you have money to support the child. In that way you are depriving the child the opportunity of having legal parents under one roof and caring for his/her other needs ( psychological,parental guidance etc ).

chineloSA:
Its clear that you didn't read my post. What the essence of asking me??

The whole act was to make the truth known. But not to kill a child.
I don't think that they went through the whole Oath and drinking water act just to particularly kill the baby.

It was just to make all the parties know the truth.The husband be put at ease and also clear the woman's name of adultery.

In mordern days they do DNA test, is it meant to punish woman??

chineloSA:
Simple common sense. God provide through parents. Having two parents who are in a healthy marriage brings two incomes which when used wisely properly provide for the children's needs and sometimes wants. So single ( never married ) parents rarely ( though some are able ) are able to provide what married parents can.

oyesjoy:
Why twisting the word of God, it was clearly about adulterous woman? If this person that posted this, wants to do abortion, go ahead, why drag the name of God in the mud.

chineloSA:
Why have sex and when you know you may conceive a child that you know cant care for??

If you are married, you don't have to worry about the means, because God always provide. And he makes conception possible and also provide for it.
If you are unmarried you have no business in having an act purposely meant for conception.

abbey621:
How does it equate to abortion? Are you saying all women who experience a miscarriage did an abortion? Or has the definition of abortion changed?

sod09:
did thunder just strike ur boobs

chineloSA:

Unfortunately for you madame you selected what you thought is the weakness of the verse. You did not read from the beginning of what transpired before it gets to verse 22-23.

Read the whole chapter please. If you are trying to confuse people may the Lord judge you. If you are questioning because you need understanding please read the whole Chapter. Here is Deutorocanonical version.

To me this was to prove the innocence of a woman suspected of adultery and carrying another mans child. They would make the woman swear under Oath, if the the woman was innocent, the pregnancy would stay and if the woman was guilty she would miscarry. Which is what some cultural villages do to prove innocence. This was in no way abortion.


Cases of Wives with Suspicious Husbands
11The Lord commanded Moses 12-14to give the Israelites the following instructions. It may happen that a man becomes suspicious that his wife is unfaithful to him and has defiled herself by having intercourse with another man. But the husband may not be certain, for his wife may have kept it secret — there was no witness, and she was not caught in the act. Or it may happen that a husband becomes suspicious of his wife, even though she has not been unfaithful. 15In either case the man shall take his wife to the priest. He shall also take the required offering of one kilogramme of barley flour, but he shall not pour any olive oil on it or put any incense on it, because it is an offering from a suspicious husband, made to bring the truth to light.
16The priest shall bring the woman forward and make her stand in front of the altar. 17He shall pour some holy water into a clay bowl and take some of the earth that is on the floor of the Tent of the Lord's presence and put it in the water to make it bitter. 18Then he shall loosen the woman's hair and put the offering of flour in her hands. In his hands the priest shall hold the bowl containing the bitter water that brings a curse. 19Then the priest shall make the woman agree to this oath spoken by the priest: “If you have not committed adultery, you will not be harmed by the curse that this water brings. 20But if you have committed adultery, 21may the Lord make your name a curse among your people. May he cause your genital organs to shrink and your stomach to swell up. 22May this water enter your stomach and cause it to swell up and your genital organs to shrink.”
The woman shall respond, “I agree; may the Lord do so.”
23Then the priest shall write this curse down and wash the writing off into the bowl of bitter water. 24Before he makes the woman drink the water, which may then cause her bitter pain, 25the priest shall take the offering of flour out of the woman's hands, hold it out in dedication to the Lord, and present it on the altar. 26Then he shall take a handful of it as a token offering and burn it on the altar. Finally, he shall make the woman drink the water. 27If she has committed adultery, the water will cause bitter pain; her stomach will swell up and her genital organs will shrink. Her name will become a curse among her people. 28But if she is innocent, she will not be harmed and will be able to bear children.
29-30This is the law in cases where a man is jealous and becomes suspicious that his wife has committed adultery. The woman shall be made to stand in front of the altar, and the priest shall perform this ritual. 31The husband shall be free of guilt, but the woman, if guilty, must suffer the consequences.

mohammedmagnus:
there's no compulsion in religion if you don't want to follow it don't!!!. simple, not that you come and start defiling someone's religion, because you don't believe in it.

abbey621:
How exactly does those verses support abortion? I don't get it! This looks like a classic case of reaching, no basis just emotional jargon.

Not only men, women do chat as well and can hide their dirty secrets more than the men.

The question should be focused more on men and women, not only men.

honeygirl17:
You dey vex


You said men always cheat, even when they don't you have made up your mind. My man don't have the power to cheat on me, even if he does I don't really care. I will definitely forgive him so why do I have to stress my head over it?

Na in those days I dey mumu dey bother my head for man, I just don't have time.

see u comparing men and women....
u like it or not, a man can have many wives and still seen as normal. A woman with two husbands is unheard. that's the society for you.
even in your religious books, we had men and Kings with several wives but no no no no for the reverse

not an excuse to cheat anyway.....
