That's beside the point I suppose. Anyway, how is it that you came by this information, if I might ask?
I read my bible.
Do you want book chapter and verse? (It's not a one verse here one verse there kinda of thing. It's entire books, complete chapters and multiple paragraphs of verses.)
Christ Himself set the pace in Mt 5 and in several key parables then Paul in the book of Romans cements the details in stone.
No, not really, since I've yet to be given any reason to consider anything the bible relates to us as true on this matter. Especially since people like Paul weren't even alive when Jesus supposedly lived.
A legitimate reason for believing what the bible says might be helpful though.
If you believe it, question it. If you question it, get an answer. If you have an answer, does that answer satisfy reality? Does it satisfy you? Probably not. For no one else will agree with you, not really.
