Would you be so kind as to teach the rest of us how you have managed to slip through life without sin? I know I'd like to know.
Well I am just blessed I guess
We are all sinners saved by grace, but the idea that “all sins are equal in God’s eyes” is a silly modern phenomenon. Yes, all sin separates us from God and we need forgiveness through Christ. But not all sin results in the hurt and devastating consequences that adultery, lust and fornication by a religious leader does.
Just because we all sin does not mean that his behavior was not deplorable. He betrayed his wife, his family, FRC, and the entire public that he used as an audience by presenting himself in a deceitful way. He’s a bum.
“He who is without sin cast the first stone” has come to mean something I think it was never meant to mean. Men were going to throw literal stones at a woman with the goal of killing her for a sin they themselves were guilty of. Jesus pointed out that if she deserves that punishment then so do they. It was not that he thought society should stop calling adultery wrong.
And would you be so kind as to explain how Josh Duggar and his family managed it, since they make their cash lecturing at conferences and on TV about how well they live their lives?
