What you gave me was from the OT, Jesus wasn't born in the OT, but the NT so please
give up that quote. You could have said, God in the OT said this, everyone would have
agreed with you, but you didn't say that.

The Word of God has been here forever, in the OT yes, but Jesus didn't show up until the
NT the Word of God made flesh...Jesus wasn't flesh in the OT, so you ready to admit you
do not have a Jesus quote yet?

Let's make sure we stay honest here. Sorry if the Gospel that is in your heart tells you that Jesus was not the God of the OT.
Originally posted by @suzianneNot at all. Actually, I am wondering why KellyJay (or you for that matter) isn't able to deal with the anomalous theory that Eladar is putting forward; saying "The Word of God has been here forever..." is surely playing into Eladar's hands.
Yet more grasping at straws.

FMF: But the question is: are you believer in the so called Old and New Covenants and the difference between them?So you believe Jesus changed his mind about what constituted the morally sound punishment for "rebellious children"?

Sure there is a difference. Sheesh you'd think a former christian would know this already.

Originally posted by @fmfI'd say Jesus teaches us that it is the moral thing to do under certain circumstances. What circumstance? When it is a society that Hod requires to survive and a society that God is to blesd.
Does this mean you believe Jesus still thinks execution constitutes the morally sound punishment for "rebellious children"?

Originally posted by @eladarBut according to what you have said, Jesus has clearly changed his mind about what the appropriate punishment is for homosexuality and being a rebellious child.
