implied...I don’t see what other conclusion

Several years ago, I listened to Christian radio a lot. One of the teachers was Chuck Swindoll, a well-known author and pastor. I quit listening to his sermons, because he read between the lines and because he assigned emotion. Since I was hungry for good teaching, I could not allow myself the wandering away from what the plain text said - no implications, no personal conclusions, no reading between the lines, and no reading of emotions into the text.

Reading the text as the author intended is not reading between the lines; it is just reading. Has Jesus sinned?
