They hanged children in the name of their holy book!

 

Ezekiel 9:6




Old and young, virgin and child and women, kill them to their utter destruction.









In application of the above biblical teaching, the Belgian colonial machine in the Congo executed a 7-year-old child by hanging in 1908 for no reason other than that his father did not produce enough wheat to satisfy the greed of the white Christian










colonizer! They read their Bible while they took the life of a child!
The image is very painful, but it reminds us that at one time barbarism was accepted, encouraged and even justified .

1 Samuel 15:

1 Then Samuel said to Saul, “The LORD sent me to anoint you king over his people Israel. Now therefore, hear the voice of the words of the LORD.
2 Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘I have punished all that the Amalekites did to Israel when they thwarted them in the way as they came up from Egypt.
3 Now go and attack Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have. Do not spare them , but put to death man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey .

We also quote in the same context:

Numbers 31:
17- Now kill every male among the little ones . And every woman who has known a man by lying with him, kill her.

Deuteronomy 2:


33- So the Lord our God delivered him before us , and we struck him and his sons and all his people.
34- And we took all his cities at that time, and completely destroyed every city, men, women, and children. We left no one behind

The tragedy is that the issue did not stop at killing children, but extended to killing those inside the wombs...!!!

The God of the Old Testament allowed the slitting of pregnant women....((He was not commanded...but He allowed it.!!!)


Hosea,

Chapter 13


15 And if he be fruitful among brothers, then an east wind will come, the breath of the Lord coming out of the desert; and his spring will dry up, and his fountain will be dried up. It will plunder the treasure of all pleasant goods.
1 6 Samaria will be recompensed, because she has rebelled against her God. They will fall by the sword; their babies will be dashed to pieces, and the pregnant women will be ripped open .


Interpretation Tadros Al- Malti ::

quote

If Christ, by His death, gives life and kills death, then by divine permission the Antichrist comes and blows like an east wind to dry up the spring of the Holy Spirit within man, to dry up his inner spring and to make him lose all his fruit : “But if he is fruitful among brethren, there shall come an east wind, the wind of the Lord coming out of the desert; and his spring shall be dried up, and his fountain dried up. It shall plunder the treasure of all pleasant things; it shall make merchandise of Samaria, because she has rebelled against her God; they shall fall by the sword; her infants shall be dashed in pieces, and her pregnant women shall be ripped open ” [vv. 15-16] . This speech was literally fulfilled by the blowing of the Assyrian captivity from the east, which completely destroyed Israel and its capital, Samaria , and it will be fulfilled in the last ages when the wind of the “Antichrist” blows from the east, and it is called “the wind of the Lord” because it is by His permission .

He says: Father Matta the poor:

"The Wars of the Lord

No conscience can permit it and no reason can justify it, because it was bloody in the harshest possible way!"
