I'm asking you to provide an example of such a teaching occurring. Otherwise we're just talking about starting a shit storm over something that isn't happening.
Are you asking so you can understand whether my thinking would allign with yours on this? I can't find any on short notice, but I've read passages in the past that call you, as a believer, to do something violent in this life. I'm not talking merely about "hateful passages". I'm talking about actual incitement to violence and I think people shouldn't be allowed to preach that kind of thing. You're splitting hairs for some reason. Are you saying there aren't any passages that go like this: " You should kill your wife for reason x, if y happens". Wouldn't you agree that no one should be allowed to preach something like that?
