Foolish child.Er no, you are not even following anything being said. You're just saying anything, regardless of whether it's relevant or not.
You may as well concede, as you've now lost the argument by simply failing to control your impulses and anger and cussing.Well I think you're, so what?
In general, moron. Romans 6:23Innocent of what?
Are you seriously this dense?
You have got to be the dippiest dipstick this side of an engine block.
Romans 6:23Scripture doesn't say.
Yup.They brought a woman to him caught in the act of adultery, and used the situation to test him.
And you still don't know whether or not He did.The test was to see if he would agree with the Mosaic law or not.
Just another ignorance based assumption, because you can't follow a line of reason.So far all we've had from you is what you *think* happened, and why you *think* it happened, and why you *think* the whole test was invalid.
Did the men do as the Law proscribed in this situation? Yes or no?
If they had executed her it would have. And they all had stones in their hands, waiting for His response.Then simply it would mean that her condemnation was deserved from a legal / moral perspective, which is all the pharisees were wanting to know in the first place, nothing more. Agreeing with the mosaic law would not get people in trouble with Rome.
Now let's see if you can use the brain in your head for something more than taking up space in your skull.
What would the Pharisees have done if Jesus said she should be stoned?
Then how would they have accused Him? If He could get around it by saying she should be stoned what would they have had with which to accuse Him? They wanted to discredit or dispose of Him. We know the latter because they tried to kill him themselves once and got Him killed later.The accusers would have been happy about Jesus agreeing with Moses, but would have also been confused because he taught that harlots were entering the kingdom of God ahead of them. They knew that Jesus would want to give the woman opportunity to repent, which he did by the way, and by doing so would have been at odds with Moses.
:sigh:No that's you. Continually.
The idea that there is no atonement for capital crimes is nonsense. But that's beside the point.There is no atonement for adultery under the law, so stop beating around the bush and show where there is grace and mercy under the law. You constantly keep blabbing nonsense.
Jesus could not have condemned her in accordance with the Law, not because the Law allows adulterers and adulteresses to go free in some instances [because it doesn't]; He could not condemn her in accordance with the Law because:
- The man was not also present.
- Jesus did not witness the crime.
- There were no witnesses at that point, let alone the two or three required for condemnation.
So, regardless of who's right or wrong about Jesus ministering the Law He still could not have condemned her under the Law.
Let me put it another way, if a similar situation had happened before Jesus was here [at a time when you believe the Law was in full effect] and a group of people asked a random guy his thoughts on the matter when he was neither a witness, a judge nor a priest [as recognized by them], and he did the same thing Jesus did and they all left that man could not have condemned the woman to death. Do you think I'm wrong? Could the lone man who did not witness the crime condemn the accused to death with no witnesses according to the Law?
No, I enjoy having intelligent conversations that sometimes include theories and speculations for the sake of argument. The only time I'm wasting is my own by trying to have an intelligent conversation with you.So you enjoy wasting everyone's time.
It was God, who gave the Law, condemning them. And why? Because they disobeyed Him and lied to Him. Dunderhead.Let's quickly clear up the fact that it was not the law condemning Ananias andSaphira*Sapphira. So this is irrelevant.
Other than the time in John where you erroneously assume He didn't support it where else do you assume He didn't support it?Jesus upheld the integrity of the law in order to make people realize how much they needed him. When we're talking about him enforcing the law, we're talking about him supporting the judicial aspect of the law.
It's not up to the leaders to carry it out, for one. And for two Jesus knew the Romans had banned the Jews from executing anyone. But these men did pick up stones as though they intended to stone her. So Jesus made sure He didn't have to find out if they actually would have done it. As well as made sure they couldn't accuse Him of anything of which He was not actually guilty.If Jesus agreed with Moses concerning the law's prescribed punishment for sin, would he have expected the Jewish leaders to carry it out?
If God said, "put adulterers to death", would Jesus have expected the Israel's leaders to see it done?
Here's another question for you: If Jesus had simply said the woman should be shown mercy and grace and let go [as you assume He did in the end] what would have happened? What would the Pharisees have done? What would the effect have been on Jesus' ministry?
In other words: What would have been the outcome, the result, if Jesus had outright contradicted Moses?
