Do we stone OUR children

Biblical thought of the day:

I was asked if we are supposed to follow the whole word of the Bible.

** Then why don't we stone our children as it is stated in the Bible?

What I discovered was that the Church of God no longer exists and neither do the Levites.

That is why we can not Stone our children because the people appointed by God no longer exist, they would do as God instructed them to do.

The Levites were God choicen people that were appointed to praise and ministry before the priests as the duty of each day required, and the gatekeepers to the temple of God as stated in the Bible.

Numbers 8:14-22 ESV

“Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the people of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine. And after that the Levites shall go in to serve at the tent of meeting, when you have cleansed them and offered them as a wave offering. For they are wholly given to me from among the people of Israel. Instead of all who open the womb, the firstborn of all the people of Israel, I have taken them for myself. For all the firstborn among the people of Israel are mine, both of man and of beast. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I consecrated them for myself, and I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the people of Israel. And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons from among the people of Israel, to do the service for the people of Israel at the tent of meeting and to make atonement for the people of Israel, that there may be no plague among the people of Israel when the people of Israel come near the sanctuary.”  Thus did Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the people of Israel to the Levites. According to all that the Lord commanded Moses concerning the Levites, the people of Israel did to them. And the Levites purified themselves from sin and washed their clothes, and Aaron offered them as a wave offering before the Lord , and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them. And after that the Levites went in to do their service in the tent of meeting before Aaron and his sons; as the Lord had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them.

2 Chronicles 8:14 ESV

According to the ruling of David his father, he appointed the divisions of the priests for their service, and the Levites for their offices of praise and ministry before the priests as the duty of each day required, and the gatekeepers in their divisions at each gate, for so David the man of God had commanded.

Nehemiah 10:34 ESV

We, the priests, the Levites, and the people, have likewise cast lots for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, according to our fathers’ houses, at times appointed, year by year, to burn on the altar of the Lord our God, as it is written in the Law.

Ezra 3:8 ESV

Now in the second year after their coming to the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and Jeshua the son of Jozadak made a beginning, together with the rest of their kinsmen, the priests and the Levites and all who had come to Jerusalem from the captivity. They appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to supervise the work of the house of the Lord .

The Levites we're God appointed people upon the earth to implement God decree and watch over the temple of God. They did as God requested not the will of man.

That is why we cannot Stone our children or do any of the burnt offerings that God instructed Us to do, as was done in the past with the assistance of the Levites.

May God bless you all
