My son, Boaz, asked me this question today. At first I thought it was a no-brainer, and was about to apply the rod to his back for his foolishness...then I started to ponder.
Exodus 31:14
"Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every
one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth
any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people."
Now, I am sure every fudge pounder in the world "defileth it" double time on Sundays, knowing that it will make Baby Jesus twice as sick as it would during the work week. Should they be allowed to shake their angry, sneering rectums in His face on the sabbath, assuming that True Christian™ hands are tied due to a technicality??
Matthew 12:10-11
"And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they
asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they
might accuse him. 11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be
among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the
sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?"
This scripture, straight from the mouth of Jesus, gives me some hope on the matter. What could be more healing for God's Country®, than to have the cancer of sodomy cut from it?
I guess it partly boils down to whether God considers dropping the ax on fags to be work or a leisure time activity. I think it is verily a labor of love, but definitely a direct order from Him.
Leviticus 20:13
"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed
an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."
But that is not to say that we shouldn't take joy in it! True™ happiness only comes from obeying God's mandates!
Psalm 40:8
"I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.”
I hope I am correctly interpreting this, because if not, it is going to put a real crimp in my plans this weekend.
Any enlightened thoughts on the subject?
