Kobojunkie:Interesting perspective on the Adultery angle. I appreciate your time for the elaborate view. You have a point. But: 1)however, we can't actually prove they weren't witnesses amongst the mob either just as we can't prove there were witnesses. I don't think Jesus asked them for witnesses. 2)The woman didn't deny it both when with the mob and Jesus , she was only begging to to be spared which showed culpability. aspect of being "careful' as the law says to get to the truth has been established. 3) We don't know what happened to the man. based on our own life experiences, it's possible he ran in a different direction and escaped or was caught and stonned by a different set of mob. From the laws you quoted: -> The law didn't say the witnesses have to be SINLESS for them to throw the first stone. They just need to be 2+ witnesses to the crime/act; that's all. Being sinless wasn't a requirement of a witness, is it?->Hence, Jesus appealed more to their moral conscience not the literal interpretation of the law. That's where the subtle difference comes in.. He ended by telling her to go and sin no more.. Fully aware she was culpable just like the mob was aware. Why? Cuz I believe drawing all men to Gods ways is God's primary reason for the laws in the first place. Using force, fear, threats and death was the go-to method then for the laws. But Jesus came to use love, compassion and Mercy on the same laws without breaking it's essence through wisdom. By opposite I mean he went beyond literal and fixated interpretations by the Jewish leaders (Pharasees,Saducees) and I gave examples. Not generalizing my statement. They were in context. |

Chienex24:That's why i quoted God's word to help you see why the guy is wrong: And if I give all my belongings to feed others, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I do not benefit at all. 1Corinthans 13:3 But have nothing to do with foolish arguments and genealogies and disputes and fights over the Law, for they are unprofitable and futile. Titus 3:9 It's God's word that say the guy was wrong not human!🥱 |

ola20ng:That law doesn't go beyond Israel so it's given for the twelve tribes only and they were never asked to take it to any other land until the Christ will come to break it down for them and teach them the PRINCIPLES behind those LAWS! Deuteronomy 18:18-19 |

chimex38:Fine. You have done well. Oya ask your AI to provide the name the suspect killer and his picture since we have seen the name and picture of the slain pastor. Someone also claimed here that he actually watched the debate video but he has not provided the link to the video so as to see the face of the Imaam. You can help us do that. Overzealous and misguided ones do commit crimes in the name of religion. Such people should be unmasked and dealt with accordingly but no to fake news. |

ola20ng:The law says another prophet will be sent to the Israelites {Deuteronomy 18:18-19} through whom God will establish another covenant with them. Jeremiah 31:31-33 So when Jesus said he has not come to abolish those laws he's warning his listeners not to think he has come to change God's laws but to fulfill which is break it down to PRINCIPLES instead of fast rules that they can't relate anywhere else. And that is why he told them to take the new covenant to other nations {Matthew 28:19-20} they can't go to another country and start forcing their country's laws on people but with the new covenant which comes with PRINCIPLES no normal human will say it's not applicable to him or her!😟 |

ola20ng:Please sir can you help me interpret this verse in the Quran? فَاِ ذَا انْسَلَخَ الْاَ شْهُرُ الْحُـرُمُ فَا قْتُلُوا الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ حَيْثُ وَجَدْتُّمُوْهُمْ وَخُذُوْهُمْ وَا حْصُرُوْهُمْ وَا قْعُدُوْا لَهُمْ كُلَّ مَرْصَدٍ ۚ فَاِ نْ تَا بُوْا وَاَ قَا مُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَ اٰتَوُا الزَّكٰوةَ فَخَلُّوْا سَبِيْلَهُمْ ۗ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ "And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." (QS. At-Tawba 9: Verse 5) |

MaxInDHouse: Matthew 16:25 >> he that loseth his life for My sake shall find it. My dear brother Bernard Muyongo has gained eternal life for not being ashamed of preaching Christ. He literally lost his life for Christ but see, he GAINED & WON entrance to Heaven immediately, according to Matthew 16:25. Please give your own life to King of kings Jesus Christ too, before you fly down a height greater than mount Everest, without a parachute of safety. Jesus loves you, and there's nothing a true Christian can do for Him on this Earth that CAN be too much, however He is not necessarily asking us to die for Him.....but if it comes in the great service for Him, we must gladly serve him so. And that said, the unprovoked killers must be apprehended. |

ola20ng:That's all from my end.. Just to prove its not a fake story. Other requests and investigative details should be directed to The Police and others claimants. ......."Overzealous and misguided ones do commit crimes in the name of religion. Such people should be unmasked and dealt with accordingly but no to fake news". Fine response as well. |

| Re: Ugandan Pastor Bernard Mulongo Killed After Christian-Muslim Debate by chimex38: 9:42am On Aug 03 |
ola20ng:naa.. It usually appears so for us Christians no doubt. I get you. I would definitely think as you are if I were in your shoes. Ideally, I think Christianity shouldn't entirely have existed if Jesus mission and right interpretation + enhancement of the Old Testament requirement was unanimously accepted by the Jews. Matthew 23:23 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former" The weightier and Spirit of every law of the Old Testament(OT) was justice mercy and faithfulness.. The jews leadership by the Scribes and Pharisees failed to apply the spirit part of this law where applicable(justice, Mercy and Faithfullness). Those are the nuances and context of the Old-Law Jesus came to fulfil. But the jews rejected it. Its the reason why we kinda separated. Those with Jesus model of interpretation call ourselves Christians and Not Jews. Yet same letter of the law. So you have a point on quoting the verse as a basis for death penalty for Jews and supposedly Christians. Jesus never condemned the law either. But the interpretation is different and context based per case. Applying justice, mercy(compassion) and faithfullness where necessary. |

Safyqueen:Years ago, my female friend ran away from home because her father tried to unalive her, what was her fault, she left the "religion of peace". For you, I even pity you more because u're a lady and there's nothing that favors you there rather than to hope that you can be one of someone's 72 virgins in the future (if you're lucky) |

chimex38:I don't have any problem with any way you interprete any biblical verses because it's your religion and the interpretations are accepted by the Christians. My problem is that you like quoting Qur'anic verses out of context and you don't accept such interpretations from Muslims |

lecowas:No problem. You can do that |
| Re: Ugandan Pastor Bernard Mulongo Killed After Christian-Muslim Debate by expert234: 10:19am On Aug 03 |
ola20ng:In old testament, those punished are those who turn away from God, not those who turn away from a religion. God didn't form any religion and won't punish people for leaving a religion, but he will punish people for disobeying him. Spiritual judgement in new testament means God himself will judge the person, which is the right thing . In Islam, it is Muslims that kiiill people for apostasy, not your alllla. It must be because your allllla is too wieak to defend his religion. |
| Re: Ugandan Pastor Bernard Mulongo Killed After Christian-Muslim Debate by chimex38: 10:30am On Aug 03 |
ola20ng:Well, I won't usually quote out of context. and if I do, i will definitely request or expect a better interpretation. The Cruz of the matter here is why it seems we Christians tend to switch verses between OT and NT whenever it suits.. Which you brought out and tend to have a point about.. I only wanted to explain the nuances further the best way I can. |

MaxInDHouse:Your argument was akin to Why would Stephen argue or dispute with the Jews You probably didn't read this Acts 6:9: "Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen." Stephen won the Debate outstandingly that the Jews were moved to violence Acts 6:10: "And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spoke." And just like your kinsmen, they incited violence against Stephen Acts 6:12: "And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came on him, and caught him, and brought him to the council," The same crime you accused this young preacher of doing. Read your bible and let the fruit of Christ manifest in you. Mar 9:39-40: "But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me. For he that is not against us is on our part." |

OBAJESU:For Christ's sake or his own pride? Christ never sent us to go about debating with idol worshipers so that man committed a blunder but because he's ignorant resurrection awaits him where he will learn true Christianity. |
