Which brings up a question i’ve wondered on and off.
Are the new testament moral beliefs different than the old testament?
Did God change and become more forgiving? Why would God need to change?
I’m expecting great answers from Bible readers cause i’ve read it but am AS FAR from an expert as there is.
I’m no expert. I’m a Catholic!
To make a long story short: Before Christ, it was acceptable to massacre foreign tribes, have sex with all the widows, and castrate and/or enslave the other survivors - after Christ, it was a sin on your immortal soul.
Christ essentially said: "Rule-change!"
Regards,
No. He’s the same as He doesn’t change.
The relevant laws for human behavior were were revealed via Jews and enumerated and explained in the Seven Laws of the Children of Noah. Most laws of the Old Testament were intended to apply strictly to Jews as explained to them.

See dispensationalism.

God is the same and has never changed. He is a God of justice and mercy. And fornication is a sin.
