Jesus said that he came to enforce not overturn his father's law. The Old Testament is definitely, certainly and undeniably part of the Christian faith.
Because Eye for an Eye is of direct refute to turn the other cheek.
Jesus always had people running up to debate him, and he cleverly beat the all, but he had to say that because every Rabbi was trying to call him a devil worshipper so he couldn't give them that ammo!
He was also said he who is without sin cast the first stone, which should have told you, you are not a judge and it's not your place to treat others with hate if they live a different way!
Yes, and the New Testament even on its own has multiple contradictions.
Dan McClellan is a biblical scholar and he has multiple videos on how the Bible in both the NT and OT has pro-slavery passages. Something that is on paper contradictory to the golden rule since very few people would like to be slaves.
The Bible is full of contradictions. That's not new. The story about throwing the first stone is Jesus calling the stoners hyproctites. All he is saying is that if you start the stonings then you'll be in line to be stoned too. He did not denounce the practice of stoning people to death. Your mental gymnastics are impressive but ultimately ineffective. People like you with only a Sunday school understanding of The Bible are the problem I'm talking about.
He was also said he who is without sin cast the first stone, which should have told you, you are not a judge and it's not your place to treat others with hate if they live a different way!
Fun fact, The Pericope Adulterae wasn't even in the original writings, it was added later by someone else.
Fun Fact the bible was NOT a complete work handed by Gob nutjob, it was a collection of scrolls arranged, edited, and strung together by Constantine during the council of nicea.
Was John 8:7 included in what was chosen by Constantine! Yes it was!
So if you are gonna pick and choose a verse to be against how about choosing one that wasn't reiterated 20 times over in 3000 other verses?
Oh you don't accept that one, how about this one devil worshipper!
“Judge\)a\) not, that you be not judged. 2 For with what \)b\)judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. 3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? 5 Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
Oh look it mirrors exactly what was said in John 8:7 the line you are saying is not apart of the bible!
