Food For Thought (Bible Morsel #3)
According to God, if a man and woman have sex during the woman’s menstrual cycle they both suffer dire consequences.
(Leviticus 20:18) “If a man lies with a woman in her infirmity and uncovers her nakedness, he has laid bare her flow and she has exposed her blood flow; both of them shall be cut off from among their people.”
Why is such practice deserving of punishment? Does God expect people to abide by this today? If no, why did God’s will change on this issue? How would you support your answer?

*I’ll be posting Food For Thought once a week. Remember, these are questions that persons of reason have. If you want to share the Christian message of salvation you must be aware of what the Bible says in its entirety. Just memorizing and quoting select verses is not enough. Many nonbelievers are well-versed in the Bible and it’s one of the reasons they are not believers. If you believe that you’re created in the image of God, then there’s no reason you can’t supplement your faith with reason and intellect. Engage the mind that was given to you.
