Yahuah
(Heavenly Father) has instructed Israel in Leviticus 18 not to have sexual relationships or
"uncover nakedness" with certain members of their family, like
brothers and sisters, the sin of incest....Etc.
These
laws are still applicable for us today. I read a newspaper clip the other day,
in it was reported that a father was sentenced to life in prisonment for raping
his 8 year old daughter over many years. Nothing is new under this sun!
What
was happening in Moses's time still happens today!
We
so often hear that we cannot compare the old times of Israel to modern times of
today? This is not true, the law made in those times is still absolutely
applicable today.
Here
are the laws in Lev. 18;
Verse 7, no sex with your father or your
mother.
Verse 8, no sex with your father's wife
(stepmother).
Verse 9, no sex with your sister or
stepsister.
Verse 10, no sex of your son's daughter, or
your daughter's daughter - granddaughter.
Verse 11, no sex with your father's wife's
daughter - half-sister on father's side.
Verse 12, no sex with paternal aunt (fathers
sister).
Verse 13, no sex with maternal aunt (mothers
sister).
Verse 14, no sex with paternal uncle's wife (fathers
brother’s wife).
Verse 15, no sex with your daughter-in-law (
or son-in-law).
Verse 16, no sex with your brother's wife (or sister’s
husband).
Verse 17, no sex with step-daughter or
step-granddaughter (or step-son or step-grandson).
Verse 18, no sex with a wife's sister (or husband’s
brother).
Verse 20, no sex with your neighbour's wife
(or neighbour’s husband).
Verse 22, do not lie (sodomy) with a male as
with a woman (male with male / female with female), it is an abomination (worst
of sins).
Verse 23, do not have sex with any animals (man
or woman).
Verse 24, Father says we should not defile
ourselves with all these above, because all other nations do this but we are
separate from them.
Verse 25, Father punished these nations and
vomited them out.
In
verse 29, Father
says, whoever does any of these abominations, those beings shall be cut off.
Verse 30, He says, I am Yahuah your Elohim
(Almighty God). Meaning: Listen to Me!
