I get the idea here, but since you're talking about the ENTIRE law of moses, how would you expect it to function in today's society? There's a law in the torah that says to kill people if they work on the sabbath. If you try that nowadays you'd end up in prison. It just doesn't seem possible to me.
Along with observing Torah, there is also an understanding to it as well.
The understanding part is rarely taught or talked about.
Someone of Torah observance cannot kill someone. Only the judges can carry out that order(which would have been the priests).
I'll explain the actual process of authorizing a stoning.
It's very similar to today's court system. Someone has to be accused, has to be brought to a court, etc.
To start off that eliminates this one there has to be temple/tabernacle (that would basically be the court room)
There has to be priests (those are the judge and jurry).
There are neither of those things today (I'll also go more into that later), so technically that rules it out.
Secondly there has to be an accuser, and there has to be minimum 2 witness.
If there is no accuser, and no minimum 2 witnesses the case is closed.
Third, Torah states to follow the laws of the land. Now with this I do believe it would mean in a reasonable sense, if there is a law that makes it to where you're turning against God such as like a law that states everyone has to bow down to an idol, I do believe in that case God gives grace and mercy one is to refuse to abide by that law of the land.
So in that, if someone is following Torah, they are going to abide and follow the judicial system of the country the live in, and not take matters into their own hand.
Now here is the 4th, final, and most important part of the understanding of Torah when it comes to death.
Yeshua is our judge and jurry.
Those who follow Torah and are saved through Messiah have an understanding on the fact that Yeshua is our judge and jurrer. We understand that He is our High Priest as well.
Yeshua said, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
When Yeshua said this He was putting His stamp of authority on judge and jurry.
He got rid of the accusers and he got rid of the witnesses when he said this (because the accusers turned away).
And then Yeshua said repent and turn away from your sins to the adulteress.
So when comes to the stoning with sabbath that's something someone would, 1 need to understand the process of it, and 2 for those who do understand the process of it know it's not their place to make the judgement.
For those on here who chastize other for not following sabbath disgust me, because they claim to follow Torah, but they chastize those who do not, and unless they are a levitical priest they cannot carry out that judgement.
Along with that if they don't understand that Yeshua has brought the Melchizedek priesthood into place, which is why it puts Him as the High Priest, judge, and jurry.
So overall those who understand Torah understand this.
Those who do not understand Torah, automatically think there was a stoning everyday in ancient Israel. Which is definately not the case.
And I'm not just defending Torah observance when I give this spiel
If I see someone who has no Torah observance beliefs get attacked by an athiest about stoning, I defend the non-Torah observant person as well, because athiests do not understand it just as much as someone who is non-Torah observant doesn't understand it.
