1 John 1:7

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin

Leviticus 21:17-23. As a disabled person, I say that god can go fuck himself.

Maybe Jesus dying on the cross? It's the best because it's the foundation of christianity. It's the worst because you have an innocent person being brutally murdered to pay for the crimes of the guilty, to save us from a pit of fire that Yahweh made for those who disobey him. It is both the best, and worst, part of the bible.

At least the new testament. There's probably too many worst part in the old testament to count. It's like trying to find the smelliest turd in a turd pile. Best? Maybe when people like Moses or Abraham have to remind him to try to be compassionate.

It is one of the most moronic parts of the Bible:

It would be hard to dream up a more ridiculous and asinine story.

"Jesus wept"

Oh that they were all that short.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Proverbs 14:15 The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.

I like this verse.

That verse sounds like what happens to a city under siege.
