    Matthew 5:17-9 says that all old testament laws still apply

    Matthew 6:5 says not to pray in public or flaunt your religion.

    Matthew 19:24 says that no Christian should have any disposable income.

    Timothy 2:12 says that Christian women may not proselytize

    Peter 2:18 says The Christ himself condones slavery

    Psalm 137:9 says that those who kill babies in the name of the Lord are glorified for they are exterminating the next generation of “Our Enemies”

    There are a ton more. I’ll add as I remember them.

    Numbers 5:11-31 is the only time that the entirety of The Bible or The Apocrypha even mention abortion. Those verses tell you how to perform an abortion. (In possibly the worst way, and for the worst reasons imaginable) This literally makes The Bible Pro-Choice.

    I’m intentionally ignoring the incest and lots of logical holes in the Old Testament as much as I can, because I want to poke holes in what these modern “Christians” believe.

    Edit 3: Oh! Oh! This shit contains so many verses to deploy against evangelicals. http://www.benjaminlcorey.com/could-american-evangelicals-spot-the-antichrist-heres-the-biblical-predictions/

      I’m sure the answer would be: “Yeah but they couldn’t have foreseen how the modern world works 2000 years ago. We need to adapt to the ti… Hang on did you say we can have slaves again?”

        How could they have know that 250 years later, we’d have miniature Gatling guns that fit in a pocket and can be reloaded in seconds when they wrote the second amendment.

        So their all-powerful, all-seeing god couldn’t foresee the future when putting down his official laws?
