As for stoneing someone for working on the Sabbath that is against the laws of our country that was founded on religious freedom. All the OT law does not apply to christianity. Jesus said, it was said to hate your enemies, I say to love your enemies and even supply their needs. When the priest condemned the disciples for picking grain to eat on the Sabbath Jesus said do you not pull an ox from the ditch on the Sabbath, then He told them He was the Lord of the Sabbath and that the Sabbath was made for man not man for the Sabbath. Jesus was saying to the priest that I have not judged them so why should you. Many different laws in the OT were meant for different reasons and some of those do not apply to todays world.
First of all, the rest of you should not rip on this guy, because that's essentially (without the harsh language) the way I was treated, more times then not, when I was a Christian.
@Godschild-why were those regulations there to begin with? I mean, seriously, why did people have to be stoned to death just for violating the Sabbath. I don't expect you do have all the answers, I don't.
