Then why keep asking me about governmental laws if punishments per laws are not the point????? Are you looking for answers of what kind of punishments should be issued by governments apart from governmental laws? If you really want to open that can of worms then here's a question for you...

I have not argued against that. You can keep saying that if you want, but David was not punished per the law. No it's not. There is nothing in the law that says an adulterer's child should receive death instead of the adulterer as punishment for his adultery.

David was not punished for adultery per the law.

My response was to CM and what he asked about. His question about the law of killing adulterers definitely had biblical roots to it. And I responded that per the law David the adulterer should have been killed but wasn't. That may be off topic per your one-track narrative, but it wasn't off...

I hope y'all aren't. Wrong. My initial post on the topic was in response to Cabinet Maker wondering if killing adulterers in the old covenant law would still apply in God's new covenant. That some of you want to take that in the direction of whether we should obey the civil laws we have today...

YOU need to follow the conversation. I said nothing about how modern governments should treat criminals today. You continue to jump to conclusions of the intent of my posts. The only point I have made is that God did not insist that the law of killing an adulterer be inflicted upon David, thus...

I said no such thing concerning the flood. Please learn to respond to what people actually said, and not what you think they said, or what you wanted them to say.

Made up. Not in accordance with the law no matter how much you try to twist it.

For those that choose to remain living under the weak elements of the letter of the law. Tit-for-tat, what one DESERVES, rather than mercy and grace. "Flow of authority"? ROFL! What you are promoting is that someone who is in the position of authority is above the law. Scripture makes no...

His love, mercy, and grace are sooooooo wonderful!

There is a reason I posted what I did. To show that God did not demand the judgment of death specified in the law for adultery upon David's crime of adultery. When you won't even comment on that I see no reason to go down some rabbit hole of questions that have nothing to do with my post.

Hostile??? Again, you jump to conclusion. My post had absolutely nothing to do with the law being abolished just for David, nor was it about murder still being on the books. Yet the fact remains that God did not demand David's crime of adultery be carried out according to the judgement of the...

If you had read my post with a clear mind you would see that I said absolutely nothing about the law being abolished just for David. And if you had read my post with a clear mind you would see that my post was in response to adultery, not murder. I gave the facts of scripture that David...

We can remember that David wasn't given the death penalty for breaking that law. Romans 4 (6) just as David also speaks of the blessing of the one to whom God counts righteousness apart from works: (7) “Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; (8)...

Romans 5 (18) Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. (19) For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be...

No it does not. I couldn't care less. You've said that so many times and you never stick to it. Jesus was crystal clear about what He said about the kingdom of God.

I didn't. I quoted exactly what Jesus said about the kingdom of God. I have no misunderstanding of what Jesus said about the kingdom of God. It's crystal clear. Luke 17 (20) Now when he was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, he answered them and said, "The kingdom of...

No I did not.

Acts 15 (8) And God, who knows the heart, bore witness to them, by giving them [the uncircumcision] the Holy Spirit just as he did to us [the circumcision], (9) and he made no distinction between us and them, having cleansed their hearts by faith. (10) Now, therefore, why are you putting God...

I didn't give an interpretation, silly boy. I quoted what the Lord Jesus Christ said about the kingdom of God. Here's what the Lord Jesus Christ said about the kingdom of God. Luke 17 (20) Now when he was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, he answered them and said...
