And , as CS Lewis states....Religion is like walking down a hallway with open doors. The doors are open if you wish to walk in. Only you can choose which one to walk in.

Very true. I find it interesting that every sector of Christianity still has to re-write the Bible to their liking.

Not true, they may stray, but they can't rewrite the bible.
Again no one is perfect, we have to judge ourselves, and not judge others.
There's a reason for laws, and judges, same as tax collectors.
We may not like or agree, but they were appointed, and lets' let God deal with them.
Same as turn the other cheek, that was in the old testament , so thank God he still allows warriors !
It's confusing at times, but gets better as you believe more in Jesus.
Free will is the key.
Your heart is what it is.
If you believe , you will be forgiven.

Actually, Jesus lived a sinless life.

We are called to judge what is evil from what is good.

And what part of the Bible did God say to kill the unbelievers?

You don't remember the temple ? Where he destroyed the tables of merchants and theives?
Doing so in the Holy Temple?

I’m gonna kick back and watch over 44,000 different serpents swallow their own tails on this one .

Lewis was an Anglican. Which brought us this …

who determined that His actions were a sin? You?

Actually, this is one of my favorite stories from the Bible. It proves (since Jesus was incapable of sinning), that there *IS* such a thing as Righteous Anger!

if you believe that Jesus sinned, then you are denyng Who He said He is.

Righteous Anger ?
When you destroy another's property?
If I remember right, that parable was to show that Jesus was human.

No, Jesus was in the right flipping tables as the merchants were basically defacing the temple by cheating and doing sinful things.

We must remember Jesus walked a perfect life preaching and teaching. I believe he was God in the flesh.

As to different denominations of Christianity, we as Christians must be very careful who we follow. Those denominations that push everything is okay and (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) doesn't exist probably should be avoided.

it wasn't a parable.

it happened.

Jesus didn't sin.

If He did, He isn't Who He said He is.

Verse 2 goes on to say: "For as you judge, so shall you be judged." I kinda figure rather than for me to judge, it's God's problem, not mine.
Someone once said, When you get to heaven, you might be surprised at who is there and even more surprised at who isn't.

I think your off base OW. Jesus was the spotless Lamb. If he was just another sinner like us he couldn't have paid the debt for all the rest of us. Can u as a sinner pay the debt for your children if u wanted?

Snap shot of just a smaller number of verses that point to Jesus being without sin

Some of the newer versions of the bible have changed the wording, but not the meaning. There are some non-Christian churches who have re-written the bible and changed certain passages to fit their own theologies such as the Watchtower Society. They renamed their writings to the New World Translation which totally changes the truth in many areas. A good example would be John chapter 10 where Jesus says, "Before Abraham was I AM." Since they don't believe Jesus was god, they had to rewrite that section in their new bible as though it never happened almost.

John's gospel references Jesus as god in the flesh many times. It's almost the theme of the gospel. In chapter one, John writes: "In beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Later, verse 14: "And the Word became flesh and dwell among us." How can that not be Jesus he's referring to? All true Christian religions may have slightly rewritten it in a more modern, understandable form, but the meaning remained the same. I have 4 different bibles, Duoay-Rheims (Catholic), 2 Protestant, Vulgate editions. On those passages, the wording is slightly different, but the meaning is still the same with all of them.

You have some messed up thoughts. Sorry but there was most certainly old testament Christians and please elaborate on the imperfections of Jesus - I would like to hear them from you.

Sorry, I jumped ahead without reading Yes Sir - he quoted the scriptures about Jesus being sinless

Didn’t Jesus say that the Holy Spirit would be here to guide us?

Very much under valued in Christianity here in these times
