Atheist Says, "Your Bible Says A Woman Must Marry Her Rapist?!" 

So, uh, what do you plan on telling God on Judgement Day? About your unbelief I mean. I hope you have a doozy of an explanation because God is going to take a lot of convincing about why you rejected his son! You’ll find out God takes that pretty seriously. And don’t say you are agnostic. That’s fence sitting and be sure God is big enough to knock you off the fence. You won’t like your landing!

@@user-vm5ud4xw6n Whoa whoa whoa, slow your role. I don't actually believe in a creater but I do believe in Christian values. I believe in the Bible more like Aesop's fables, not true stories but meant to teach you about morality and how to live properly. If I'm wrong and God does exist then I'll have to deal with the consequences, but there's no reason for you to be so hostile to me. I value your right to believe in God and assuming you are Christian, the main point we seem to disagree is the actual creator part.

God bless you sweetheart. I appreciate you.

This is true. A lot of young people nowadays are very promiscuous and can't control themselves. They can't wait for marriage anymore and I really blame mainstream entertainment which being controlled by Satan. This is a big reason why it is good for young people to know Jesus.

Better yet. The old testament is a picture of the full penalty of the Law. And we have to be humble to realize we can't really meet the standard, and we need Jesus.

Unfortunately, western civilization heavily punishes the man for doing so, but if the woman is found out to be the initiator...

The bible allows polygamy. There were laws given for men to be able to take multiple wives. There are even verses where God refers to himself as having two wives, that being Judah and Israel. That's disgusting. Most Christians are against polygamy, yet the bible never states this as a sin. And if a woman in that environment wanted to leave, she'd lose everything in the process and likely be ostracized from her community. I'm glad to live in modern day America, really.

​@@tryphenarose384the bible clearly shows the consequences of polygamous unions. There are almost no happy harmonious unions. The wives were all unhappy as the men were all unable to satsfy them both. The bible simply outlines it showing what occurred but allowing you to draw your own conclusions.

@@tryphenarose384 the whole reason that you are "glad to live in modern day America" is BECAUSE of the bible! Why don't you know this? Our laws on everything moral (including our laws against polygamy) are derived directly from scripture because it was biblical theists that founded this nation. This was common knowledge up until like 2 minutes ago. Read a book.

The King James Bible is Perfect. The "newer versions" PURPOSEFULLY change this verse and many others but Allen keeps teaching error to please audience.

@@MichaelAChristian1there are no perfect translations. I like reading KJV best but it’s impossible for the bible to be exactly the same after being translated into a different language

@@ngantran9884 That's just a LIE you were deceived into parroting. You haven't thought about it nor searched the scriptures because they told you scriptures are "full of error". We see in Scriptures that God Himself interprets multiple times in different languages. Only a deceived person would say he made a mistake then turn around and say God couldn't translate it. That's exactly what they do with Matthew 1 for instance. Further in Acts we see they heard it IN THEIR OWN TONGUE. Specifically to show you it can be translated EASILY by God. God preserves his words. But you have been deceived that you now think NONE OF SCRIPTURES ARE PERFECT. The NO PURE SCRIPTURE DOCTRINE is from hell. Time to wake up. God even FORETOLD He would speak to you in ANOTHER TONGUE. UNDERSTAND?

You are in no position to make claims about the accuracy of a translation unless you can read Hebrew.

Technically any sin can be forgiven by God. But I think what you’re saying makes sense.

​@@Pangie12Not all sins are forgiven by God (Matthew 12, Mark 3, Revelation 13 and 14)

I wouldn’t either. What a crazy family.

I've seen several comments on various videos with similar pretenses where a woman tried to bring up that her husband was mistreating her and they, either, told the couple to go to counseling because they expected a "stern talk" would fix the husband or that the woman needed to be put in her place. Only one comment mentioned that it was years after her incident that the church she used to go to finally started acknowledging domestic abuse as an issue that required more than just marital counseling. This is why many people have left the faith or they acknowledge that many of these big denominations have gone into Apostacy and it's only the smaller denominations that broke away from the bigger denominations or are just a group of people who opted to restart the denomination based on what it was originally meant to be about and are growing from there.

Holy cow that is awful, I wonder how many marriages have been arranged due to the very misinterpretation of the two verses. My heart goes out to the victims :(

I hope you can share this video with your friend so that she knows the true meaning of the verse. God forbid she lives on thinking Christianity condones rape.

It's better to be lost in the Word of God; He always comes through for His beloved. Hallelujah in Jesus Mighty name Amen.

You think it's truly cleared up? Want to know exactly why he HAD TO CHANGE bible versions?? Below is the verse from the NIV, which is the bible he used for all the other verses: _28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, 29 he shall pay her father fifty shekels[a] of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives_ His preferred version of the bible calls it rape in that verse.

@Lee-km7qq Actually when you read multiple translations in context it is clear that 26-27 involve a “betrothed virgin” and 28-29 involve an “unbetrothed virgin.” In the first case the woman’s consent only matters because she is promised to another. In the second case the woman’s consent doesn’t matter, in any case, she is no longer suitable to promise to another, the only way the father gets his bride price is if the offender pays it and takes her as wife. She isn’t much more than property in scripture. Exodus 21 declares that Israelites can sell their own daughters as permanent property. Deut 22 : 27-28 still apply in the case of rape.

let it go, faith is meh, facts are better :D

@@DeconvertedMan Feel free to live your life as you wish. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I haven't watched the video yet but I can easily explain it quite quickly. The passage isn't talking about forced sex, it talking about a man taking a woman and acting like she is his wife by having consensual sex with her. The fact that it uses the wording "they are discoverd" shows that she is a willing participant.

Yeah he breaks it down real good. This verse isn’t really about rape, let’s use all these verses about commanding Israel to murder people for infidelity as context. Excellent moral defense.

​@@lilchristuten7568This is bullshit tapdancing to attempt to explain an obviously horrific practice from the bronze age

I can see how some people might misunderstand what that verse saying. Especially since either the NIV or NLT actually says rape in that verse. Talk about a serious mistranslation.

@@healingthroughchrist1988 yep. Those translations are bad...

kjb is the best version, I'll quote it too: "If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found; Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days..."

@@Pettam713 "lay hold on her" as in grabs her.....that's the r word.

and yet it uses the r word and the v word. both of which imply non-consent. and found it as in "discovered" as in someone notices. that doesnt imply she was at fault.

@@Spriktor do you seriously believe in the "power of prayer"? if so i have an experiment you can do to demonstrate it's 100% false.

THIS. In Biblical times, men would only marry virgins, and a grape victim would be unable to find a husband and would be forced to fend for herself. This verse forced the graper to face the consecquences of his actions by taking responsibility and providing for his victim.

Thanks Allen appreciate your hard work.

I think deep down they hate God without even knowing it and they just read the Bible to find fault with God. When you have a negative mind all you can see is evil.

When the Almighty is supposed to be perfect and he isn't, can't say that's picking at nits; rather, it's pointing out that the Almighty is less than perfect.

If you're looking for another resource, I highly recommend Got Answers. I love to share the Gospel with atheists and other non believers and I find it's a great way to search up specific questions and they always give very detailed and thorough answers with cited verses.

@@emelynklieman5540it got to the point I don’t want to waste time talking to them.

On top of that if you so interested in knowing what the verse means go to RU-vid and search it up from Bible scholars and let them explain it to you. Because you talking to me about a verse just shows that you want to start an argument💯”

How do you turn to a God with multiple translations of the same writing that NO one agrees upon?

If atheists read "The Bible For Dummies" they would twist that as well.

Even Allen did this. He left out the greater context. A woman who was not a virgin was considered spoiled, and not fit to be married off as it wouldn’t be a pure marriage. This forcing of an unbetrothed woman to marry the one that slept with her, whether he forced himself on her or not, is because it is the only way to ensure the father gets the bride price, and the marriage is considered more pure if she has had only one partner even if they were together out of wedlock. In context, it does include a raped women. She must marry her rapist.

@@Tinesthia But it may make a man think that if he rapes a woman who is not interested in him, then he can force her to marry him against her will. Where is the woman's "free will" in this? I thought God cared about free will.

​@@Tinesthia Watch the video again. Try to absorb the info more fully this time.

​@@Tinesthia Watch the video and carefully listen

This is Allen’s full time job. Most Christians don’t have the time, or capacity to read several translations. Even then, how do you know you’ve got the root meaning? There are thousands of denominations, all thinking they have the root meaning.

when you say "guides" do you mean rationalizes the worst parts to make them seem like they say something they dont actually say?

@@sabin97 no, doesn't sugar coat anything - for example we were in the passage where God kills someone for touching the Ark of the Covenant - talk about difficult! God killed someone?! Yep. That might make some folks leave the church! Our Pastor delivers the word in a way that makes sense and gives insight. He had given very explicit instructions on how to transport the Ark (in the famous movie, they are doing it right!) and to NOT TOUCH IT! They failed. God is merciful, he wants us to obey his commands, and not incur his wrath.

@@JackieSkellington actually he does. the tries to lessen the r word. if you read those verses in context you will notice that's exactly what they are describing. someone doing the r word and the victim being FORCED to marry the perp. and he tries to paint it as her being some sort of willing participant.

But if everyone obeyed, there'd be lots of polygamy, since the bible allowed for men to take multiple wives - who then none of them could be allowed to divorce.

@@tryphenarose384 please show me one verse in the Bible where God “commanded” polygamy. The only verse I can remember of God commanding relationship is Genesis 2:24 which I quoted in my original comment. In the Old Testament God allowed a lot of stuff which He Himself never commanded like divorce, slavery, and even polygamy which you mentioned. He allowed them because He understood that they had to exist to maintain an imperfect world. The Pharisees questioned Christ of why divorce was allowed in the law, and Jesus answered by saying “Moses,because of the hardness of your hearts permitted you to divorce your wives, but in the beginning it was not so”-Matthew 19:8. In the Old Testament God clearly stated that He hates divorce because it covers one’s garment with violence. and he commands men not to deal treacherously with the companion of their youth-Malachi 2:13-16. The Old covenant was to maintain an imperfect world through the Israelites, The new covenant was to fulfill God’s perfect will through Christ, and that is by walking in the Spirit.

@@tryphenarose384 quotes from Previous comment^ Malachi 2:13-16 ”And this is the second thing you do: You cover the altar of the Lord with tears, With weeping and crying; So He does not regard the offering anymore, Nor receive it with goodwill from your hands. Yet you say, “For what reason?” Because the Lord has been witness Between you and the wife of your youth, With whom you have dealt treacherously; Yet she is your companion And your wife by covenant. But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one? He seeks godly offspring. Therefore take heed to your spirit, And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth. “For the Lord God of Israel says That He hates divorce, For it covers one’s garment with violence,” Says the Lord of hosts. “Therefore take heed to your spirit, That you do not deal treacherously.”“ Matthew 19:3-10 ”The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?” And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.” They said to Him, “Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?” He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.” His disciples said to Him, “If such is the case of the man with his wife, it is better not to marry.”“ ‭‭

The atheist because spirit of God disrupts in interfere in their inner demons. They don't want to be held accountable. They want to go through life living the way they. Without any remorse. And I believe that's why a lot of deeds are Done in darkness. And they probably feel they should not be held accountable or be under any authority. So is there is no God knowing that God sees everything when there's no God that means they're not seen for. Exedra exedra the list goes on. But they also want to blame God for the problems in the world. I said I'm looking within themselves to realize it is us that is the problem. We make the problem and expect God to fix it. Like for instance with all the money America has we watch children on the street starving instead feeding them and taking them. They'd rather blame God for allowing it🙄

If that was the case we wouldn’t have free will. God could easily have made us all robots!

I have done this. Been a Christian for several years after formerly being an atheist. The things that the bible says pertaining to women, is definitely rocking my faith as of recently. I have asked for discernment, and have gone to God humbly, yet the fact that the bible doesn't allow a woman to divorce, or that a man could marry multiple women without it being considered adultery and the other women he married then have no choice but to live in that environment. If a woman wanted to leave, she'd lose everything - her home, belongings, her children, all because in a patriarchal society, everything belongs to the man. That's terrible and I'm so glad I'm not an ancient Israelite.

Well, given that “deniers” don’t think Gid exists, asking for discernment is futile. I’ll take evidence. Unlike most Christian’s I’ve read the entire bible, and considered the different translations.

"it's not saying that she must marry him or that she can never divorce him." are you really trying to argue semantics? if you married your wife. did your wife marry you? of course. saying a has to marry b, means EXACTLY THE SAME as saying b has to marry a. it means a and b have to get married. the mental gymnastics are something else.....

@@sabin97 No, saying "He must marry her" is not the same as "She must marry him" for the simple fact that consent would be required before he *can* marry her. Even in biblical times, the bible is full of commands to women (rather than instructions for men as to how they should force the desired behavior), which tells us that they did have some degree of agency, and there's no reason to think she would ever be forced to marry someone she didn't want to.

Yes

it wasnt even "explained away". he just tried to spin and rationalize it. but it still says the victim has to marry the perp.

I’m not Allen but from a woman’s standpoint I’m pretty sure God will not tolerate His children being abused. God does not condone divorce but it was given because of the hardness of their hearts.

I think you've answered it quite adequately yourself

There's a great 3-hour video by Mike Winger on divorce and remarriage you should check out and get some clarity. There's a lot of twisted, legalistic content on YT that only condemns and traps people, and it's not right.

Abuse is grounds for divorce. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

@johnygoodwin3441 I want to believe that, but I'm not a scholar, and I'd rather hear the opinions of others than assume something from my own understanding since I already have a biased opinion.

Amen! KJV Is The Best Option. Too Many Rewrites!

KJV has errors, missing passages, extra passages, and uses out-of-date language that also confuses. The NIV isn't the only translation that translates it this way. The KJV is the only translation that translates it that way. ESV is a more reliable translation and says "violates." It's fine to prefer a translation, but KJV is objectively worse than NLT and ESV, and KJV translates from the Volgate--not original manuscripts as modern translations do, and the volgate itself had many errors. Prefer one to another, but KJV is objectively worse. What's most amazing is how a worse translation still gets almost everything right and the gospel is unaltered.

@@bufficliff8978 Nonsense. You peddle deception and the flawed nestle aland text here. Prove an "error" in KJV, and ill show you have no clue what you talk about to the best of my ability since i cant post links here, but i can show you how to search it up.

You can start at 1 Corinthians 7:25--28. Pray before you read it and for God's wisdom and understanding. If you're a Christian, ask God to open your spiritual eyes. If not a Christian yet. Ask Jesus into your heart. For he is the son of God. Who died and three days later, rose from the dead. Ask the holy spirit to help you understand what your reading. Repent of your sins.

Man told us that a woman was tricked by a talking snake. No god told you that. Man created these myths to put women in a lessor role. God has put women in a extremely special role.. But you choose to listen to what man says instead of looking at what God has done. You act like men's nipples naturally produce milk when the baby cries.. Never let man's mythologies have authority over Gods Natural Law

@@bariettaperez That’s like blaming the sword for cutting you instead of the one wielding it or the one who forged the sword in the first place knowing what it was goin to be used for.

Debatable, it's still rape man, I don't think the times really matter. I would still say it's more of a punishment for the woman because she has to deal with the shame from it, being judged by everyone, and looking at her rapist everyday vs. Oh man, I have to work to provide for this woman and right my wrongs, oh shucks.

@@josephlewis1912i agree this seems worse for the women if i got raped i certainly wouldn’t want to marry them
