this is true even now. god is not a respecter of the traditions of man even if they are directed at worshiping Him, for the sake of the appearance of Holyness. The story of the 'Good Sameritian' is another example of this.

We are not responsible for perfectly interpreting god's word, but we are? Then, of course, you will argue that becuase Jesus knew the correct interpretation they should have bowed to it. However, the odds that they trusted him to be the son of god are probably as good as the chances of you believeing that some random person claiming to be the second coming was telling the truth.
Drich Wrote:Darkstar Wrote:Also, is his inability to go against his nature why he needed Jesus?Yes, It is also the reason Christ said He did not come to abolish the Law but to full fill it. Christ had to meet the standard that the Nature of God demanded for the full fillment or attonement of sin.
Because god is merciless and unforgiving by nature?
