Thank you for doing so much to educate people about God's law. I have learned a great deal from you and I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind him that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice, however, regarding some of the specific laws and how best to follow them."
"When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. How should I deal with this?"
"I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as it suggests in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?"
"I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev. 15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell? I've tried asking, but most women take offense."
Lev. 25:44 states that I may buy slaves from the nations that are around us. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans but not Canadians. Can you clarify?
I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:22 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?
"A friend of mine feels that although eating shellfish is an abomination (Lev. 10:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. Can you clarify?"
"Lev. 20:20 states that I may not approach the altar if I have a defect in my sight. I wear contact lenses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room?"
"I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can hlep. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging."
