Sex And The Bible

While in Herbie’s crackpot cult, he always yelled at us to, “Don’t believe me, believe the Bible,” or, “dust off your Bibles”. Plus drilling into our heads such biblical phrases as “every scripture being an inspiration of God” or “not one jot or one tittle shall be removed,” or such statements as the Bible was written by men inspired by God, etc. In essence, saying that the Bible was God’s Holy Word. Or being constantly threatened with hellfire if we returned to “Satan’s world”. This was the sword of Democles hanging over our heads. We were threatened with God’s terrible wrath, and only “God’s Apostle” could save us.

Blast from the past…

Well, I did dust off my Bible, neglecting it since the great escape. With an unbound mind, I approached it from a very different perspective than Herbie’s pernicious, prevaricating, pompous, postulating, pedantic sycophants preached.

These clones entered Ambassador as avid, eager puppy dogs, anxious to learn and to have their minds sterilized, homogenized, anesthetized, downsized, capsized, and radicalized to conform to Herbie’s brand of religion. once brainwashed, air-blowed, dried, and stamped “approved”. These agents were sent to the hinterlands to infect the rest of us with Herbie’s virus. But I digress…

Although there is a smattering of goodness within it’s covers, sage advice, sound spiritual sense, scads of prophecies, “thus sayeth the Lords”, the Bible as a whole, is a cruel, vicious, blood-thirsty book. Filled with murders, incest, wars, mass slaughters, maiming, rape, sex, etc. Oh, yeah, a lotta sex. So mom and dad, send your kids out to play before you read this.

 

In spite of the many years I was in Worldwide Church of God, many of these scriptures are new to me. Due, no doubt, to Herbie’s slanted teachings. HE probably read them, and apparently felt no compunction about his sexual dildos. Which explained his reasoning when confronted with the matter of incest. He was God’s apostle and he was allowed. It’s what he told his daughter when she asked him why. It was in the Bible so that was good enough for him.

I will begin with chapter and verse: (since “concubines” will have numerous mention, Webster defines concubine as a “mistress”. In other words, “whore”).

In 2nd. Chron. 11:21–Rehoboam had 18 wives and threescore concubines. He begat 88 children. Accordingly, most were bastards.

Gen. 38:8-10–Onan was killed for practicing birth control. Too lurid to describe. Read it.

2 Sam. 13:2, 14, 15–Amnon raped his virgin sister.

Jer. 5:8–“Everyone in Israel was as fed horses in the morning; everyone neighed after his neighbor’s wife”.

Num. 5:14-22-A woman was tested for adultery by drinking holy water mixed with dust.

Gen. 38:18–Judah paid a harlot his ring, his cord and his staff for her services. She was impregnated by him.

1st Kgs. 11:1-3–Solomon loved many strange women. He had 300 concubines. (Whores).

The men of Sodom were struck blind because they sought to rape two male angels. Gen. 19:1-11

2nd Chron. 15:16–Maachah’s son Asa burnt a phallic symbol she had made.—

There are nineteen cases of incest in the Bible:

  1. Lot with his elder daughters, Gen. 19:33.

  2. Lot with his younger daughter, Gen. 19:35.

  3. Abraham with his half-sister, Gen. 20:12.

  4. Nahor with his niece, Gen. 11:27,29.

  5. Reuben with his father’s concubine, Gen.35:22–49:4

  6. Amram with his aunt, Ex. 6:20.

  7. Judah with his daughter-in-law, Gen.38:16,-18.

  8. Amnon with his sister, 2nd Sam., 13:2,-14.

  9.-18 Absolam with his father’s 10 concubines, 2nd Sam. 15:16, –16:21-22.

  19. Herod with his sister-in-law, Mark 6:17–18.

So now we can understand Herbie’s love for the Bible and why he had no qualms about confessing to incest. He practiced what he preached. He said G-a-a-a-w-d allowed him to do it.

Yeah, Herbie. We can just hear you singing:

“Gimme that old time religion, gimme that old time religion, gimme that old time religion, it’s good enough for me. –if it’s good enough for Lot, then it’s good enough for me.”

    The Worldwide church of God attempted to annihilate peoples personality, individuality, will, and character. The stranded souls that hitched their wagon to this organization unknowingly supported a power-hungry pharisaic and fastuous authoritative cult leader and his son, Garner Ted Armstrong. For all the alarums and excursions, the fact remains that without knowing it, we nurtured these two ungrateful incubi's. For that I can only ask for forgiveness. After my WCG experience, I went to college to educate myself so I would have a greater understanding of the world about me and to understand why I ever fell for HWA's scam religion. This lead me to the conclusion that the appropriate action to take, in my judgment, is to provide people with opportunities to learn, develop, and exercise their potential as human beings, by freeing them from men who exploit and abuse them. This website and others are my vehicle to do just that.

  1. The cat in the picture is probably more deeply converted than anyone in the ACOgs! But, hey! That’s OK! I’d rather be around cats than Herbie and his followers.

  2. Alex,
    Unfortunately, Armstrong’s followers are probably more resistant to taking a fresh look at what the Bible has to say about sex than with any other HWA teaching you could mention. They will tell you that the teachings of Traditional Christianity are just about the exact opposite of what the Bible tells us about most subjects, but they are quick to defend their shame and guilt oriented attitudes toward human sexuality. Since they claim that Scripture is without error or contradiction, you will never get them to see the inconsistencies inherent in the Mosaic laws regarding female purification and the notion that God designed the female body (menstrual cycles and all). And please don’t have the audacity to even talk about more enlightened views regarding queers and perverts (or what most of us would refer to as homosexuals and transgender folks). NO, for Armstrong and his followers, Traditional Christianity got it just about right with regard to sex!
