This is from a verse that is believed by many to be a forgery, since it only appears in earlier manuscripts, but not older ones. Many bibles have John 8 start at verse 12, for this reason, or otherwise have a very obvious note explaining this. You can research this by googling "Pericope adulterae".
Do you mean when Jesus told his followers to take swords, and then condemned Peter when he cut off the ear of the slave of the high priest? "Live by the sword, die by the sword".
Jesus has the authority to forgive sins. Does that mean that all Christians also have the authority to forgive sins? Just because Jesus did something, it doesn't mean that all Christians have that authority.
Imagine the stupidity it takes to even state that it was a “forgery” because it appeared first…
You mean the difference between self defense and causing harm for no reason?
That statement is a hilarious logical fallacy. Seriously, take a look in the mirror, it must be difficult for you.
By "earlier manuscripts", I am referring to the date the manuscript was found, not the age of the manuscript itself.
Like I said, you can research this yourself. Go do that.
One would think that trying to save Jesus from being turned over to his executioners would not be "causing harm for no reason", but Jesus apparently disagreed.
Name one Christian in the Bible who fought in self-defense. Go on.
How so? Do you have an argument or are you just chanting "logical fallacy" like it's a magic phrase that causes you to win the argument?
You're the one claiming that, because Jesus did something, all Christians have the authority to do that same thing. Do you stand by that or not?
Go and sin no more is repeated quite literally twice by Jesus in the book of John alone. You have absolutely no clue what you’re talking about.
There are plenty of references to violence in the Bible, especially the Old Testament. Are you saying David was not justified? Did god punish him for killing Goliath? Jesus dies for a purpose, and tells his apostles so, so another false equivalency of stupidity. Jesus also beat people with a whip himself so yes Christians committed violence.
A false equivalency is a logical fallacy saying because only someone can do something does not mean anything one person does is only allotted to them.
I repeat. Look in a mirror.
I am not arguing that Jesus doesn't want people to sin. I am just saying, that the "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" account is likely a forgery.
That's what I thought, you couldn't name a single Christian who acted in self-defense.
Why do you think that, just because Jesus did something, all Christians are authorized to do that thing? I've clearly shown that not all Christians are authorized for forgive sins, so there must be more to it than "Jesus did it!"
And you can't name a single Christian who acted in self-defense.
So what leads you to believe that Christians are authorized to use violence?
Can't tell if faggot mad that faggots aren't welcome or
What is considered to be "the bible"? What counts as "Scripture"? Does it include the book of Enoch? Maccabees? Does it include verses that are only present in younger manuscripts, but not more recently found older manuscripts?
That's what I thought, you can't answer my questions, nor do you know the difference between "your" and "you're".
