The 'Vicarious Atonement', is a central concept within Christian theology that asserts that Jesus died "for sinners". “When a person sinned, they would take a lamb to the temple to sacrifice,”
As a Lamb of God, Jesus was killed like a lamb.

Many of the things that were practised & acceptable in the Old Testament, are no longer done in the New Testament - 'followers of Christ'. The essence of Christianity is 'love, salvation & forgiveness'. Christ is an embodiment of all three.
It's disrespectful for those who practise a different faith, to try to be the experts explaining another faith's verse. Quoting Leviticus as justification for the killing of #Deborah is grossly disrespectful. Jesus we are told, chose love over hate many times e.g. Sabbath day.
The funny thing about quoting out of context is that the same people believe one verse, but do not believe a whole lot more. They will tell you this verse is wrong or that verse is. E.g. Ask the same poster if Christ truly died. I bet you he will say no.
Three things will last forever—faith, hope, & love—& the greatest of these is love. These words encapsulate what Christ was about.
No wonder he wouldn't let them stone a woman to death, but instead said, “Let anyone who is without sin cast the first stone.” He saved her!

Leaving theology besides, even it were true that all of the Bible be taken literally, Nigeria is a secular state. It can't be used as justification either way. That should be the agreement for everyone. We can't have people taking laws into their own hands based on beliefs.🚶🚶
Christians are released from the old law(s).
