Eating A Ham Sandwich

 

Lunch time?
Leviticus 11:7-8 reads:

And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.

Tattoos

 

Thinking of getting the Superman insignia on your bicep or your boobs ?Leviticus 19:28 states:

Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

 

Rounded Haircuts

 

Off to the barber?Leviticus 19:27 states:

Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.

Men With Injured Or Cut Off Private Parts Entering Houses Of God

 

It’s bad enough if you’re a man who has had his private parts injured — or heaven forbid cut off — but to add insult to injury, Deuteronomy 23:1 states:

He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.

Consulting Psychics

 

Have you ever had your palm read? Or maybe you’ve consulted your horoscope for a little guidance?
Leviticus 19:31 reads:

Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.

Wives Helping Out Their Husbands In A Fight

 
 

Gentlemen — if you ever get in a fight and you get the feeling your lady might jump in and lend you a hand by squeezing your opponent’s… ahem… “secrets,” you’d better stop her.
Deuteronomy 25:11-12 states:

When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets
Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her.

Children Cursing Their Parents

 
 

 
 

Kids these days — you never know what’s going to come out of their mouths!But hopefully your child doesn’t curse you because Exodus 21:17 states:

“And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.”

Gossiping

 
Heard some juicy news about Jim Iyke And his numerous mistress ?

Can’t wait to tell your readers  that you just  heard from authoritative source   that Ini Edo  is pregnant?
Leviticus 19:16 states:

Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour; I am the LORD.

Getting Remarried After Getting Divorced

 

When it comes to the Bible, this is a big no-no (unless your spouse was cheating on you):Mark 10:11-12 states:

Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.

Working On The Sabbath

 

In our fast-paced society, does anyone really work Monday to Friday from 9-5?Exodus 31:14-15 states:

“Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.

Eating Shrimp, Lobster, And Other Assorted Seafood

 

Craving a big bowl of popcorn shrimp?
Leviticus 10-11 states:

And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

Women Speaking In Houses Of God

 
Bishop Idahosa 
Headed to church, ladies?1 Corinthians 14:34-35 states:

Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

Losing Your Virginity Before You Get Married

Today it might be harder to find a bride who is a virgin rather than the other way around.

But Deuteronomy 22:20-21 states:

But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:
Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father’s house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you
