Featured Churches double standards

"...He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone..."

 

Same sex sin is described in a handful of passages, while adultery and fornication are found in many dozens, and while some address spiritual sin, most concerned physical intimacy outside of biblical marriage.
In rare instances, driving above the speed limit is less dangerous. many years ago, we were driving from O'Hare to North Chicago for our son's graduation from basic at Great Lakes Naval Base. The 4-lane highway was bumper to bumper, 1-2 car length spacing, at 70 mph, with 55 the posted limit. The rain/snow mix at the airport became heavy snow a few miles to the north but the traffic held their speed. We knew that driving at 55 would almost certainly trigger a massive pile-up so we chose 65 instead. Then we'd see a car spun out onto the shoulder or upside down, and cars would slow a couple tics - happened several times - then we slowed to ~20 as drivers were rubbernecking at a couple of tractor trailers off the southbound lanes. Until that slowdown it was one of the scariest 15 minutes I've had while driving, worse than dodging log trucks on icy roads in the Maine woods.

 

Lol, what's your answer, kick em all out?

 

What do you consider to be 'Biblical divorce', i.e., when is it ok?

 

A church I attended for some years in the 80's had several divorced and remarried couples. Both divorce and remarriage of all of them happened prior to their being saved and each and every one of them would stand and admit they did what was against God's will and plan for man and would not commit the sin again.

 

I've heard that philosophy for driving on crooked/steep roads, too.

And I've been in one of those 1-in-1000 situations. In the 1970s we didn't buckle the seatbelts on the logging roads in northern Maine, as several drivers had been crushed in their seat by logs from another truck. On a mild (near 30°) morning in January 1981, I was riding shotgun in a co-worker's pickup when we entered a right/left S-curve just as a log truck carrying two big tiers of spruce sawlogs. Neither vehicle was going all that fast but we both slid and met in the middle. I had dived against the dashboard before the collision, which changed our velocity from 25 mph to minus 25. The right headlight of the pickup had been crunched back to where the glovebox had been, and the cab on the right side was crushed in by more than a foot. Had I been belted, I likely would've face-planted against the doorframe thanks to the shortened cab, rearranging my skull a bit. As it was, I had a non-displaced fracture of my lower left leg and some painful cartilage damage.

 

Good question. For example, my brother had a very contentious relation with his wife who came out as a lesbian and she influenced one of their daughters to become a transsexual . Well 2 years ago she moved out and filed for divorce. He Indicated that they will stay married but live very different lives, he a heterosexual selebate life and her a gay lifestyle and influencing all the kids with homosexual & transexual lifestyles. But I want to stress, my brother did not pursue a divorce. He is hopeful that his wife will wake-up and support their marriage. So what do you think…is my brother correct in his approach?

 

Well I’m not certain he is a better man! He should want some happiness in his remaining years, but he keeps quoting scripture on this topic so…

 

Opps… they are headed for purgatory!

 

I thought that theory only applied to NJ and Mass?!?
