Applying 2 Tim. 3:16 To The Rest Of The Bible by F00028: 11:13am On Jul 24, 2013
what would happen if we were to apply the test of scripture in 2 Tim. 3:16 to the rest of the Bible?

2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable
A- for doctrine,
B- for reproof,
C- for correction,
D- for instruction in righteousness.

for example under which head will scripture like Judges 16:1 fall?

New Living Translation (©2007):
"One day Samson went to the Philistine
town of Gaza and spent the night with a
prostitute."


is it doctrine or instruction because it
doesnt contain any reproof or correction?

and what would be the fate of scripture that doesn't fit under any head?

It is sometimes not adviceable to pick wat is written in a verse of the Holy Bible without putting into consideration the "pre and post" of the verse.
@ topic;
The story of Samson in the Holy Bible is meant for our reproof and correction.

2 Corinthians 6:14
Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?

Muhammad violated the Qur'anic law on the punishment of sex offenders

Fornication and adultery are two most serious offences in Islamic societies. The punitive measures, as enacted in the Qur’an are truly extremely harsh and barbaric.

Let us read the verse which deals with such grave crimes:

Punishment for adultery or fornication (both man and woman) is one hundred lashes in front of the believers:
The woman and the man guilty of adultery or fornication,- flog each of them with a hundred stripes: Let not compassion move you in their case, in a matter prescribed by Allah, if ye believe in Allah and the Last Day: and let a party of the Believers witness their punishment.
Qur'an 24:2

Strangely though, when it came to a friend of Muhammad, who admitted having committed a punishable offence (illegal sex, perhaps), Muhammad did not apply this Qur’anic rule. Here is a hadith from Sahih Bukhari on this violation of the Qur’an:

Muhammad did not punish a person for illegal sexual intercourse because the person prayed with him...

Narrated Anas bin Malik: While I was with the Prophet a man came and said, "O Allah's Apostle! I have committed a legally punishable sin; please inflict the legal punishment on me'.' The Prophet did not ask him what he had done. Then the time for the prayer became due and the man offered prayer along with the Prophet , and when the Prophet had finished his prayer, the man again got up and said, "O Allah's Apostle! I have committed a legally punishable sin; please inflict the punishment on me according to Allah's Laws." The Prophet said, "Haven't you prayed with us?' He said, "Yes." The Prophet said, "Allah has forgiven your sin." or said, "....your legally punishable sin."

What about that Mr OP?

You accused the Bible of not punishing a se.xual offender, Samson. And I told you even Muhammad did the same or worst.

Samson committed sins against God and we all could see how he ended his life.

Note that this is not the first time you are bringing up this issue before you made it a thread now.
