What does the Bible teach about Genocide?
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css="" css_animation="none"]A @Christadelphians Video: Description: Scripture shows that God is Sovereign over the Earth He created and all its inhabitants. His mercy and long-suffering toward those who don't follow his commandments are shown by the 400 years given to the Amorites in Canaan to repent in Abraham's day. After this period had elapsed the Israelites under Joshua cleansed the land on God's behalf of their unrepentant and abominable wickedness only sparing those who were willing to follow God. God is merciful and has offered us salvation through His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
### Summary
This presentation discusses the biblical topic of genocide, exploring the apparent contradiction between a God of love and the instances of mass killings commanded by God in the Old Testament. The speaker delves into the historical and cultural context, the character and purpose of God, and the interpretation of the difficult passages related to genocide, ultimately concluding with God's plan for redemption.
### Highlights
🔍 The term "genocide" was coined in the 1940s to describe the systematic killing of a group of people, with the legal definition requiring the intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.
🔍 God's character is explored, revealing His sovereignty, holiness, and desire for His people to reflect His glory, while also offering a way of salvation through His son, Jesus Christ.
🔍 The speaker examines specific instances of "genocide" in the Bible, such as the command to destroy the Amalekites and the Canaanites, explaining the historical context, God's purpose, and the opportunities for repentance and mercy.
🔍 The presentation emphasizes that God's judgments are unsearchable, but He is a just and merciful God who offers a way of salvation to all who believe and obey Him, even in the face of impending destruction.
🔍 The speaker concludes by highlighting God's ultimate plan for redemption, where the Lord Jesus Christ will return to establish His eternal kingdom, and those who have believed and been baptised will inherit the earth.
