The guy is an “emergent” heretic. Stay well clear of him and his ilk.

“”Just as his new covenant replaced the old covenant, Jesus’ new commandment replaced all the old commandments.””

So ... he thinks God just ... changed his mind?

Matthew 22:36-40 New International Version (NIV)

36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

They don’t apply to him. I can see one that he has already violated outright. Probably more. The usual preacher’s case for self justification.

"Why do you ask me about what is good?" Jesus replied. "There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments."

"Which ones?" he inquired. Jesus replied, "'You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony,

honor your father and mother,' and 'love your neighbor as yourself.'"

Matthew 19:17-19

Did you not notice the OLD Testament and the NEW Testament differed quite a bit? Those opposing titles for the two sections are kinda meaningful.

From jealous angry God who wants child sacrifices, to belief and faith as the path to a loving Father... the message did change. Did you miss that?

Uh-huh! OK! Thank you very much. I remain unconvinced of your argument. I'm sure God still frowns on murder, or perhaps more to your point, adultery (and other sexual activities. Didn't Jesus say something about lusting in the heart?).

Envy is such a lovely, Christ-like emotion, too. And of course, I am absolutely certain God is glad to see worship of other gods. Diversity, don't you know.

Yup. a “feel good” ministry. Tickle their ears. anything to get them to fill the collection plate. Andy is nothing like his dad.

Christ said He came to fulfill the Law.

It sounds OK, so long as you are expressing your love to your victims.

"I covet everything you have including your woman because I love you so much, brother!"

Organized religion ain't what it used to be.

Child sacrifices? Maybe you misread the Abraham and Issac story. Other than that, what is your justification for that statement?

Jesus said “Every Jot and Tittle”, which I think means every dot and crossed T, of the Old Testament was true.

I think it is possible that Stanley meant that we are no longer bound by the law. The Ten Commandments are still the law and should be obeyed but we are not condemned by breaking them.

“I told my kids growing up, if anyone ever asks you, ‘Do you believe Adam and Eve are real people?’, here is how you are to answer: do not say ‘Yes, because the Bible says Adam and Eve were real people,’” commented Stanley in an interview with Michael Brown last July. “You say this: ‘I believe Adam and Eve were historical characters because Jesus did. And when somebody predicts their own death and resurrection and pulls it off, I go with whatever they say.’” …
Funny no mention here of science acknowledging the existence of Eve, as well as humanity genetically descending from just two original humans, thus proving the Bible correct via that route.

This guy does not seem very well educated in Christian theology or history. Although it is true that not all of the details of the Mosaic law are applicable to non-Jews, it is always been taught that the Ten Commandments remain applicable to followers of Jesus.

Even though the day of the Sabbath was changed (perhaps for not completely honorable reasons), the idea of a day of rest was retained for centuries, even though that has largely vanished in modern times. Sunday is now filled with all sorts of work and "busyness," from yard work, to shopping, to professional sports events.
