Deuteronomy 7: 1-6

I hear a lot of Christians ask one of the stupidest comments! Here is just one:

"That's not Christian like" (or a vairation) "That's not very Christian!" They say that when someone they precieve as a Christian, doing something wrong to someone else. My responce to that is, yes it is very Christian! It is in the Bible, to do wrong to others, especially if you took their land:



‎.
Deuteronomy 7: 1-6

“7:1 When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;

7:2 And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them:

7:3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.

7:4 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.

7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.

7:6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.”

Most Christian militants extend 7-1 to include any nation Christians invade.

Does this sound like a merciful God to you? But it IS VERY Christian!
