WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

Fact is though the Torah or the bible does not command termination of pregnancy. This has already been proven to you in the scripture context you are unwilling to discuss that you left out.
You have proved nothing.
Numbers 5:22 and 5:27 clearly describes the termination of the pregnancies of adulteresses using a "bitter water" abortifacient. And if the "bitter water" abortifacient is ineffective then the adulteresses pregnancies will be aborted anyway when they are executed as commanded in Lev 20:10.

So this explains a lot. You are homosexual? If you are practicing known unrepentant sin you do not know God or His word according to the scriptures (1 John 2:3-4). One thing is clear to me from the scriptures is that we cannot claim to know God if we choose not to believe and obey His Word which is sin in Gods eyes.
No I am not, and have two daughters and four grandchildren.
And the bible says nothing at all about female homosexuality anyway since they do not have penetrative sex as described for female heterosexuals in Romans 1:26-27, where Paul described anal sex of women as "vile" and "unseemly" and not "the natural use of the woman".

Sorry God does not make special rules for males and females.

Sure I did. I posted the scripture context that is in disagreement with you. See post # 310 linked and post # 294 and post # 235 linked that prove from the scripture contexts what you were claiming about abortion is not biblical. You just simply choose not to believe these scriptures that show why your interpretation of a single scripture read out of its context is unbiblical and does not support your claims that God promotes abortion. What is silly is you need to read your interpretation into the scripture even when this is not what the scriptures are saying. The Law of Jealousy from Numbers 5 and the bitter waters was not an abortifacient. It did not even assume that a woman was pregnant or not pregnant. It was given to faithful and unfaithful woman suspected of adultery and the curse only applied as Gods judgement if the woman was guilty. If the women was not guilty there was no curse. Furthermore it would be a very silly law if the women was an adulteress and guilty but not pregnant. Anyhow that is what happens when people twist scripture and separate it from its contexts I guess. I think I am done trying to help you. As it is clear you do not want any. So lets agree to disagree. I prefer the scriptures shared with you.

Right. It is an assumption on his part. Nor can he name any herb that can be added to water that causes the rotting of thighs, the swelling of the belly, and the miscarriage of a fetus.
The bible says what it says, and the reference to rotting thighs is just an archaic description of a pregnancy termination.
And if the "bitter water" abortifacient doesn't work, the pregnancies will be aborted anyway when pregnant adulteresses are executed (Lev 20:10).

Sure I did.
Only in your dreams. And even if the "bitter water" abortifacient doesn't work, the bible does not condemn abortion anyway.

And may the water that brings these curses enter your stomach and make your womb discharge and make you miscarry.” And the woman will say, “I agree, I agree.”
Numbers 5:22. CEB

If she has made herself impure and been unfaithful to her husband, this will be the result: When she is made to drink the water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering, it will enter her, her abdomen will swell and her womb will miscarry, and she will become a curse.
Numbers 5:27 New International Version

This should be a warning and wake up call for you that perhaps you are in error. Between these two posts it is proven beyond any doubt that you claiming that God is commanding abortion is unbiblical nonsense.

IOW those versions are just archaic descriptions of pregnancy terminations using "bitter water" abortifacients which have been used for thousands of years with varying success, and why the fall back to terminate the pregnancies of adulteresses is described in Lev 20:10.

And may the water that brings these curses enter your stomach and make your womb discharge and make you miscarry.” And the woman will say, “I agree, I agree.”
Numbers 5:22. CEB

If she has made herself impure and been unfaithful to her husband, this will be the result: When she is made to drink the water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering, it will enter her, her abdomen will swell and her womb will miscarry, and she will become a curse.
Numbers 5:27 New International Version

And Joshua's god even blessed him for butchering all the unborn (Joshua 8:26-27 6:21).

Is this getting embarrassing for you now? We have proven from both post # 235 linked that the scripture context disagrees with your claim that Numbers 5:22 is God commanding abortion. While post # 350 linked proves from original Hebrew word meanings, in agreement with the Lexicon and Interlinear and parallel translations that the English word for "miscarry" or "abortion" is never used in the original Hebrew in Numbers 5:22, וּ֠בָאוּ (H935) הַמַּ֨יִם (H4325) הַמְאָרְרִ֤ים (H779) הָאֵ֙לֶּה֙ (H428) בְּֽמֵעַ֔יִךְ (H4578) לַצְבּ֥וֹת (H6638) בֶּ֖טֶן (H990) וְלַנְפִּ֣ל (H5307) יָרֵ֑ךְ (H3409) וְאָמְרָ֥ה (H559) הָאִשָּׁ֖ה (H802) אָמֵ֥ן ׀ (H543) אָמֵֽן׃ (H543) (check each Hebrew Word number). Does this not concern you? It should because as proven from the scriptures in the linked posts attached both the scripture context, the original Hebrew word meanings, in agreement with the Lexicon and Interlinear and parallel translations that the English word for "miscarry" or "abortion" is never used in the original Hebrew in Numbers 5:22 are all in disagreement with your interpretation of a single scripture taken out of its contexts. Yet you keep repeating the same thing over and over despite people trying to help you and ignoring everything that is written only as a help for you.

IOW he said nothing at all about homosexuality, and why he loved a particular disciple who laid on his breast instead of a woman.
You apparently have a problem with rational thinking. If Jesus supported ALL the Laws (even the smallest one) that is saying that he supports the law against Sodomy. It's kind of like if I say, "All the children in my daughter's first grade class are invited to her birthday," and Suzie is in my daughter's first grade class, it means that Suzie is invited, even if I didn't use her name.

The bible says what it says, and the reference to rotting thighs is just an archaic description of a pregnancy termination.
And if the "bitter water" abortifacient doesn't work, the pregnancies will be aborted anyway when pregnant adulteresses are executed (Lev 20:10).
For you to successfully argue your point, you have to identify something that can be added to water that will make it taste bitter, and also causes three health conditions: rotting thighs, swollen belly, and miscarriage. The fact that you can't do this makes my interpretation that it is a fake test the most reasonable explanation.

And the Sodom and Gomorrah story has nothing to do with homosexuality anyway, but is about unrightiousness and inhospitality.

That's completely irrelevant since the intent and purpose of that commandment is obviously about terminating pregnancies of adulteresses even if the medication is unsuccessful, and is then resolved by Lev 20:10. And the bible does not condemn abortions.

And the only one you are trying to convince otherwise is just yourself.

Obviously not. See post # 558 linked for the reasons why from the scriptures that are in disagreement with you. If you disagree please show why you disagree by addressing my linked posts provided that show that your interpretation of Numbers 5:22 is unbiblical nonsense. If you cannot what is your argument? You have none and no excuse for continuing to promote false teachings.

Loving God and my neighbor as myself.
So why didn't Jesus marry a woman,
No one really knows. It's odd, because one of the laws of Judaism for men is to marry and have children. Certain people are not allowed to do so, such as men who have crushed testicles. Also, some people are severely limited in whom they can marry. A mamzer, for example, can only marry another mamzer. I'm sure it happens a lot that they cannot find someone whom they are allowed to marry.
and why did he love a particular disciple who laid on his breast instead?
Do you think that straight guys can't have close intimate friendships? Have you never heard the term bromance?
And why didn't he stone the adulteress as commanded?
Never happened. This legend was added into the gospel in the 4th century. It's a nice story, but that's all it is.
And the Sodom and Gomorrah story has nothing to do with homosexuality anyway, but is about unrightiousness and inhospitality.
I agree that the sin of Sodom was inhospitality. I never brought this up. It's a red herring. I'm not sure why you think it somehow proves that Jesus was gay.

BTW, just because Genesis has the sin as inhospitality, doesn't mean the New Testament shares that teaching. Jude 1:7 says, "In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire." I'm a Jew, so what Jude says is irrelevant to me. But it would be relevant to a Christian.
