It doesn't matter what you believe, that's subjective. It matters what is true. [snip]
Seriously, take your own advice.

I'm not arguing whether or not it was God's will, it was just a simple example of murder, nothing more.

Murder which was forgiven.
That's my point.

Irrelevant! I know it was, no one was discussing whether or not it was forgiven, and while the act was being committed it wasn't yet forgiven, it was murder. And Moses' entire life had to he lived as a murderer from that point on. Why are you bringing up numerous irrelevant details to the discussion? It was merely an example of a murder in the Bible.

That has nothing to do with carrying out a death penalty dully arrived at by a conviction under a lawful trial under the law.

So if say, hypothetically speaking of course, Obama passed a Law put forth by congress that stated that ALL Christians were enemies of the state and subject to summary execution, this would be ok with you?
My point is, who is the JUDGE?

Your example is irrelevant on numerous points. For starters Obama is not a Sovereign God of the universe.

It doesn't make sense to me. If The god of The Bible is evil, why do these New Age people still talk to MichaEL, GabriEL, or any of the other "-el" Angels? These are all beings related to the god of The Bible, right?
You see these people who are Wiccan or Pagan claiming to not be Christian and they are still summoning these angels. We also see some New Age people who claim that The God of The Bible wasn't Good and they still summon angels like Michael and the others. If you thought the god was bad, why would you be talking to his angels?
It doesn't make sense...

Yes, but isn't "ba'al" in Ancient Hebrew mean "husband?" I remember reading that.
Ba'al speaking - The Ugarit Tables (Around 1345BC)
"So, my father, EL the bull, won't you bless him? Creator of all, won't you show him your favor?"
These tablets were dictated by the chief priest of Ugarit to a scribe between 1375 and 1345 BC. The city itself was destroyed around 1200 BC by the Sea Peoples at nearly the same time that the Israelites emerged into history. [1]

You tell me, what is the process for convicting a condemned person under the Mosaic Law? And is God entitled to Sovereignty as Creator of the universe or not?

I will explain Mosaic Law to those who it applies to. Are you a Jew?
Yes, God is entitled to Sovereignty as creator of the Universe. Are you God?
The notion was brought up that God violated His own command to not murder by ordering death as a punishment for certain sins. This pertained to the Jews under the law.
