"When you march up to attack a city, first offer terms of peace.
If it agrees to your terms of peace and opens its gates to you,
all the people to be found in it shall serve you in forced labor.
But if it refuses to make peace with you and instead offers you
battle, lay siege to it, and when the Lord, your God, delivers it
into your hand, put every male in it to the sword, but the women
and children and livestock and all else in it that is worth
plunder you may take as your booty and you may use this plunder
of your enemies which the Lord, your God, has given you."

Scripture number five Frank?
1 John 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that
God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
Comment:
Frank you have magnified an evil God so you only comprehend this evil God. You cannot see the mystery at work underneath it all.
1 Corinthians 13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

Comment:
Frank Christ is the end of the law to everyone who
believeth!
I other words, our sins are forgiven when we confess the saviour Christ Jesus from
sin and we become righteous when we have
faith in God and his
righteousness.
NEITHER of these qualities do you openly exhibit Frank.
The nature of a 'confession' is to say what you mean and mean what you say, that your words are in agreement with what you believe...
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt
confess with thy mouth the
Lord Jesus, and shalt
believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man
believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Comment:
Frank if you did not magnify your judgments of the word of God you would see the true God in spite of your own questions of this law.
You don't want a God... Well I don't want your idea of God... I would shut my eyes too. Maybe you have picked your warped view of the biblical God because you never wanted a God anyway.
You want an easy God that you can trace with crayons. Sin isn't that easy a subject to reconcile. You use this sin Frank as an escape. You are only running further into your own human innate nature to sin and away from the gift of righteousness that comes only from the one true God.
