Tough Question....

[smithbr8]

So, can a man get away with rape if he claims the woman was specially chosen by him to carry his child without her consent? I'm not really sure how to word it, but how is it if anybody does this it's considered rape, but when the Lord did it, it was perfectly ok? Wasn't Mary raped? She was never asked "Will you have this baby?" but rather was told "You WILL bear this child." So can any man do this and claim religious persecution if he's brought to court?

I am just trying to understand how much a man can get away with nowadays so I know how much I can leave my house without being raped again in my life.

Not that I am aware of.

I'm not really sure how to word it, but how is it if anybody does this it's considered rape, but when the Lord did it, it was perfectly ok? Wasn't Mary raped?

No, Mary was not raped. Additionally, there was no sexual contact, so it could not by definition be rape.

She was never asked "Will you have this baby?" but rather was told "You WILL bear this child."

Actually, she consented.

Luke 1:38
38 And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant[f] of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

No.

No one "gets away" with rape in the long run.

Also, we should seek to forgive.

We are below our Yahvah God he is Almighty and Powerful

i think these type of questions are uncalled for and unfounded.

May he have mercy upon you.


Luke 1

And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,

47And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

48For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

49For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.

50And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.

51He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.

53He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.

54He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;

 

[loveme1]

I consider you are angry, and if you have had to deal with a rape i understand you are hurting.

Let us not compare these things that are not comparable.

I pray that no one ever violates you ever again and that you can leave your house without fear.
