How can a Christian reject part of the Bible and still call themselves a Christian?

How about this?

John 8:1-11New Living Translation (NLT)

A Woman Caught in Adultery
8 Jesus returned to the Mount of Olives, 2 but early the next morning he was back again at the Temple. A crowd soon gathered, and he sat down and taught them. 3 As he was speaking, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They put her in front of the crowd.

4 “Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?”

6 They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. 7 They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!” 8 Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust.

9 When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. 10 Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?”

11 “No, Lord,” she said.

And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.”

The scenario is different.

The divorce whores in "Christ' church there feel their whoredoms have been consecrated in their church to the glory of the Lord, as it were.

Jesus told the prostitute to go and sin no more, here we have a denomination/schism that is actually consecrating a continuation of the offense, in Jesus name .  I hope you see the difference there.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
