Their Blood is upon Them

Reformation Baptist Church

Just as God had warned them in Leviticus 18 about sexual perversion, God is now repeating many of the same things, but giving the society responsibility to enforce it. It is not enough to be a holy people to teach against perversion. The society must testify to the significance of the perversion and the effect of that perversion on the whole society by enforcing the death penalty. Modern society says that is cruel for things such as adultery and incest, but God says it is necessary to put the evil out from among you. Living in a society that is rapidly increasing in the acceptance of all kinds of perversions, we should be able to understand how much better God's ways are.
