The New Testament incorporated the Leviticus outlook on sexual immorality but without the death penalty. The punishment is that people who are sexually immoral will be denied entry into the golden cube.
The point is....Christianity presses your hotbutton for some reason. You get active on every thread that has it as a center of discussion. Not so about other faiths....especially those that often respond with violence. Wonder what it really is about Jesus that has you percolating in your hate for Him.
Perhaps this post is uncovering something deep about you. Perhaps there is something about your sexual involvement that has you feeling shameful and so active against those of the Christian faith. If anyone is condemning you.....perhaps it is yourself.
And perhaps you have no basis to judge the sexuality of others. Perhaps you have no reason to judge anyone for anything as from what I have read that is up to your God.....in fact you go against his rules by doing so.
It makes no sense, my wife doesn't like football but doesn't go on NFL forums and make thousands of posts telling people how stupid it is. My explanation is that Jesus said "I will draw all men unto Myself".
Don't you know that the Jesus character is imaginary? There was no one by than on on the planet until 1631 AD. So even if there was a guy who did the things described in the biblical stories. his name was not "Jesus." On top of that, not one single person in history has ever had any real faith in the biblical character because no one has ever been able to do what he said a person with faith can do. You can prove me wrong. Simply walk outside and command the nearest tree to uproot itself and to jump into the nearest body of water. If it does as you command it, you will be the first person who has ever had faith in the biblical character. Be sure to get some evidence and post it.
If this is what you believe why does it effect you so? What about Harry Potter?? Superman???? Hercules????? Haven't heard you trying to disprove them. There is something about Jesus that demands your focus and......He gets it!
Why would someone try to disprove the existence of Superhero's ? Adults do not generally believe they are real ? Or you putting Jesus into the same category - demanding focus like a Superhero..
It will be at least five gazillion years before I would consider worshiping the Jesus character. You have no faith in him so why do you even bother saying that you believe in him? Not one person in human history has ever had any faith in him because no one has ever been able to do what he said a person with faith can do. You can prove me wrong but simply walking outside and commanding a tree to uproot it self and jump into the nearest body of water. If it obeys your command without any outside help you will be the first person who has ever had faith in Jesus. Be sure to get evidence and post it. Luke 17:6 = Common English Bible The Lord replied, “If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you. Living Bible “If your faith were only the size of a mustard seed,” Jesus answered, “it would be large enough to uproot that mulberry tree over there and send it hurtling into the sea! Your command would bring immediate results! New King James Version So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
Why don't you prove that there is a God? Pass the test and post the evidence. It is easy if you have faith.
And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. John 3:19
Yet even you use a dating system that revolves around His birth, strange. That is truly a tinfoil hat position, few serious historians agree with you. Did Mohammed also never live?
First as the vehicle for God's truth as revealed in the Old Testament, later through the Messiah, Jesus Christ.
Prove it to yourself. No one has to prove to you there is a God. Where in the hell did you ever get that idea?
Like eating shellfish or pork? Yes, our views on many things have changed over two millennia.. slavery for example Yes, not long ago your own culture understood that black people were inferior Yes.... And?
Mohammed was a fake character designed to be the focus point of the Arabian religion. No independent reliable witness ever saw him. He is strictly imaginary. The hadith writers gave him a physical description and some dialogue centuries after he supposedly bit the dust but they got it from their imaginations. There was no one named "Jesus" until 1631 AD. If you don't like that dating system then think of it as being 388 years ago. That is how long the Jesus character has existed. You can call him Potato Head before then but his name was not Jesus in the original fairy tale.
