Noahide Laws are listed in the Talmud which says they were given to Noah. They were not listed in the OT.

They are: Prohibitions against Idolatry
Prohibitions against Murder
Prohibitions against sexual immorality
Prohibitions against blasthemy
Prohibitions against Eating flesh from animals while still alive
Establish courts of law.

Acts 15:25 to 29 referred to these laws when permission was given to go to the gentiles:

Acts: 25 we have unanimously decided to select men and send them to you along with our dearly loved Barnabas and Paul, 26 who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, who will personally report the same things by word of mouth. 28 For it was the Holy Spirit’s decision—and ours—to put no greater burden on you than these necessary things: 29 that you abstain from food offered to idols, from blood, from eating anything that has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. You will do well if you keep yourselves from these things.

These "prohibitions" target christianity since christans affirm the deity of Christ, which the talmudists see as "idolatry".

"Blasphemy" according to the talmudists also includes gentiles speaking "Ha Shem", the Name, or YHWH. Decapitation being the punishment.

That's why we must reject the concept of "noahide laws".

I think that God would not want our rejection of anything be based on that people who go by the Talmud don’t accept Christ, or even that they want to punish us. We are told not to judge. Our thinking needs to be based on God, not on the Talmud or the people who reject that Christ is the Messiah. If you feel led to rejecting Noahide laws, it could be done based on their absence from scipture except in Acts.

The noahide laws in question targets christians, therefore they are antichristian, therefore they are against scripture, therefore christians reject them.

We have to do righteous discernment/judgment on what is acceptable or not (John 7:24, Phil.1:9-10). Sad if you fail to see that.

Seem like good laws, though I don't see how those verses refer to them or how they are anti christian.

They are jewish laws, amd view christ as an idol distracting our worship from their God. for breaking the law you get beheaded. tl;dr it supposedly turns christianity into idolatry, but i dont care because the only place i ever see them mentioned is on here.

I don't see how any of those laws are bad. I would hope all Christians follow them.

That would mean you hope that all christians deny their Lord.

Can't gratulate you for that opinion.

It's not about the laws per se. The intent of the authors of the "noahide laws" is to target christians.

Seriously, anyone?
  1. Idolatry is forbidden. Man is commanded to believe in the One G-d alone and worship only Him.
  2. Incestuous and adulterous relations are forbidden. Human beings are not sexual objects, nor is pleasure the ultimate goal of life.
  3. Murder is forbidden. The life of a human being, formed in G-d's image, is sacred.
  4. Cursing the name of G-d is forbidden. Besides honoring and respecting G-d, we learn from this precept that our speech must be sanctified, as that is the distinctive sign which separated man from the animals.
  5. Theft is forbidden. The world is not ours to do with as we please.
  6. Eating the flesh of a living animal is forbidden. This teaches us to be sensitive to cruelty to animals. (This was commanded to Noah for the first time along with the permission of eating meat. The rest were already given to Adam in the Garden of Eden.)
  7. Mankind is commanded to establish courts of justice and a just social order to enforce the first six laws and enact any other useful laws or customs.
Here above is googled from Auburn University. Nothing above is more than common sense for any who obey the two great laws of Love. The cruelty to animals is touched upon in the Old Testament also, so, no, nothing added to the Mosaic laws. Apparently these laws were for all mankind before the law was given on the mount.

Missed one:

  1. Prohibition of Idolatry
  2. Prohibition of Murder
  3. Prohibition of Theft
  4. Prohibition of Sexual immorality
  5. Prohibition of Blasphemy
  6. Prohibition of eating flesh taken from an animal while it is still alive
  7. Establishment of courts of law

Note also that the the punishment for an infraction is death by beheading. This is the coming Talmudic Pharisaical System.

Note also that the US Congress has affirmed, and President's Reagan and Bush have signed proclamations for the Noahide Laws in the US.

Note that 'theft' can mean not paying your taxes or tithes, just as in the days of the church tax and the Pharisees.

It means that under a Noahidic or Sharia type law system which will be implemented first as a gateway (already the Sharia law is accepted in the UK, and Prince Charles is promoting Islam to the world) to Talmudic Pharisaical law, a new Temple, the Supreme Court of Israel is already in place, that 'the goyem' will be forced to work for the Pharisees. This a blending of the US movement to socialism first, then Marxism, then to straight up Fascism, while the liberal elements of the government are accepted, allowed and promoted.

Again, search and see the other threads related to this on this forum.

'Blasphemy' is declaring that Jesus is Lord.

Chesser, if you read the highlighted portion, you will see where the conspiracy theories enter in. In case you wanted to know when it was mentioned.
