[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Churches are human-created organizations and so inherently fallible.  Show me a church or a person that follows the Bible exactly.  You know, the stoning and all.[/quote]
Read the first few verses of John 8. We apparently get to stone people if we have no sins of our own. Fortunately, the only person who met that criteria was Christ, and he threw the stone at Himself, figuratively speaking.

People who get hung up on the stoning thing haven't tried to understand the Bible. That was a Jewish law for a people God was bringing the Messiah through. Christ did away with it. It's all in the Bible.[/quote]

Yes, just read the Bible and it will all become clear.   You can disregard anything in the old testament that doesn't seem right to you (like stoning) but can keep the stuff that feels right -- perhaps the homosexuality part.  Jesus never said a thing about it, but it was a no-no in the old testament, along with things like mixing fabrics and eating pork.   Having several wives was OK though.

Read the Bible carefully and you will figure out how to pick and choose what is right for you.[/quote]
