Why do you think that god won't allow anyone with a disability of any kind to be a priest and make offerings? [Spirituality & Religion]

God does allow people with disabilities to be priests.
Many believers and priests have mental illnesses.
@Entwistle

Not priests of the tabernacle in the OT.

@Pikachu I don't know as I wasn't there.
@Entwistle

Well i wasn't there either, but that's what it says int the bible.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Pikachu That was what I was hinting at..we weren't there so we don't know.
@Entwistle

It's pretty explicit and detailed...


"No man who has any defect may come near: no man who is blind or lame, disfigured or deformed; 19 no man with a crippled foot or hand, 20 or who is a hunchback or a dwarf, or who has any eye defect, or who has festering or running sores or damaged testicles. "

Leviticus 21:16-20

@Pikachu Every person has a defect. And according to Christians God made us all.
@Entwistle

Well that may be, but the people with [i]those[/i] specific defects were apparently unfit to serve the lord as priests.

@Pikachu Why so?
@Entwistle

My question exactly lol

Why don’t you go to the new Testament which tells us as believers we are all a Kingdom of priests to God. Why are you so obsessed with things which do not anymore apply? As I say you seem to have a personality disorder in that direction. If you were going to look at the Bible you need to look at the part which applies to day which is the new Testament and that says that everyone is included@Pikachu
@Speedyman

lol why are you so obsessed with what i'm interested in?
Get a life, my dude😁
Speedyman · 70-79, M
Because you have a personality disorder and need help@Pikachu
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Speedyman Are you a psychiatrist?
Speedyman · 70-79, M
You don’t need to be a psychiatrist to detect a personality disorder like this guy has. @Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Speedyman You are a Christian right? Then why are you so quick to insult people? You seem to do it often.
Speedyman · 70-79, M
It’s not insulting to somebody to tell them they have a broken leg so why is it insulting to tell someone they have a personality disorder when it’s quite obvious@Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Speedyman Because you don't know that person has a personality disorder. If you do then prove it.
Speedyman · 70-79, M
I don’t need to prove it it’s just common sense@Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Speedyman Then it's just you making an assumption.
Speedyman · 70-79, M
Not at all I can see the mile off. The problem these people have those they are very reluctant to ask for help@Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Speedyman So you enjoy playing the amateur psychologist?
Would Jesus be happy or saddened by your behaviour?
Speedyman · 70-79, M
What’s that got to do with the fact that their friend has got character deficiencies@Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Speedyman Its okay you don't have to be embarrassed if you want to bypass my question with one of your own.
Speedyman · 70-79, M
Not by passing your question I’m just stating facts That should be obvious even to you@Entwistle
