I HAD to pin this article.As a mother of 2 toddlers we adopted from Ethiopia,we are getting ready to have them circumcised and I came across this article.I noticed that there is such controversy over an issue that shouldn't be an issue at all among Christian parents of boys.I noticed that those who are in the Con camp of circumcising are those that are Pro Abortion and Pro homosexual and mostly mothers who fear for their sons comfort.They go on pure emotion,not trust and obedience to Scripture.I have noticed in these Last days,how people question every jot and tittle of God's Holy Word.Job comes to mind when he began to question God and the LORD reminded Job of who He is...the Creator of the Universe.How arrogant we have become as a culture,thinking we are higher than God and we know more about our children than the One who made them.Great post!! I'll be sharing this with others.The Smith Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18439414473843180101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955133430002694128.post-77181649525573411142013-01-18T15:10:25.566-08:002013-01-18T15:10:25.566-08:00Circumcision was instituted by God.

It is a sign of blood in the male organ of procreation so that all seed necessarily passes under the bloody sign in procreation, just as the children of Israel passed under the blood on the lintel and doorposts of their houses in Egypt during the Passover. Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin for “The soul that sins, it shall die”, and in Adam, we are born sinners. So God instituted sacrifices as a sin covering until the one perfect sacrifice for sin should be made, that of His own Son. Since the death of Jesus, the bloody sign is replaced by baptism for ALL infant children of believers to represent their covenant relationship to God and the circumcision of the heart.

Thanks for the comments.
My thought now...IT IS! <br /><br />Thanks for the comments. <br /><br />My thought now (and maybe it was then) is that circumcision is an outward sign of an inner commitment. A possible stop on nephilim, is but one more possibility.<br /><br />Good thought that the fallen angels weren't said to be giants. They would indeed (I guess) be unable to circumcise themselves, so circumcision might well have been a great way to tell if a man was a man, and not an angel. <br /><br />Sharp mind, you're gonna put me out of a blog!No Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13210257718658256236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955133430002694128.post-12952229610802568182011-09-23T17:57:21.891-07:002011-09-23T17:57:21.891-07:00Out standing post about the Nephilim. One thought...Out standing post about the Nephilim. One thought on this subject though is I would like to point out that although the Nephilim were large giants; the Beni-Elihem are not said to be as such. This then would go to logic that the circumcision was a preemptive stop against an infultration from the "Son's of God" not against the Nephilim per say. That being said, the covenant could have eaisly been removed by Jesus because by his time the fallen ones who came back after the flood could have been destroyed by Joshua and Israel, and sent away. Since their race no longer exists, no need to perform a barbaric ritual. BUT; in the end times the DNA disruption will produce the exact same results. This is a very large, complicated topic.Bradley Wilsonnoreply@blogger.com
