Bible Discussion Thread

If Moses had said it, or Matthew, or Mark, or Luke, or John, or finally Paul said it, would it make the verse any less divinely inspired of God, or the rest of the Bible for that matter? I myself have at times found myself at odds with what the Bible says in certain verses and caught myself trying to justify some of the wrong things I’ve done by reinterpreting what I‘ve read. This is wrong. Trying to justify a life style by blotting out, rewording, not agreeing with it, or saying God didn’t directly declare an act to be sinful is also wrong. Plus, calling a life style sinful, is not the same as judging someone. Jesus said in Matthew chapter 7, verse 1 “Judge not, that ye be not judged.” In John chapter 8, verses 10 & 11. “10 “When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?” 11 “She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.” Jesus called what she was doing sinful without condemnation and told her to stop sinning. Lastly, the woman didn’t try to justify her sinful lifestyle by woefully announcing that everyone else there was just trying to “judge her“.
