[Thumper1960]

The OT proscribed death for adultery. That was OLD, not NEW. Jesus came to fulfill and destroy and build again. He didn't demand death, He demanded repentance....and repentance cannot be truly felt without knowing the shame of violating the wishes of God for His children to be and act in His image.

Really....is this the conversation that relates to Cruz/Trump and the struggle to rebuild this nation?

[HiTech RedNeck]

Do you know the Old Testament story of Eden? Adam and Eve felt shame. But nobody but Satan was testifying against them. In fact God said to them, who said you were naked? It wasn’t Him — He was not furnishing the shame.

Just because an illness commonly produces a rash, does not mean the rash is necessary before the illness can subside.

You talk grace down. Grace opens up the motivator of love, which sounds unlikely to us mortals who went to the karma system when we sinned with Adam in Eden. But God makes the rules and it puts the shamers to shame.

The OT proscribed death for adultery.

The Torah certainly doesn't proscribe death for adultery.
