The Bible contains the teachings of Jesus. However, it also contains the teachings of many others that do not necessarily coincide with them. For instance, many seem to supercede the teachings of Jesus with the Old Testament or the teachings of Paul. Unfortunately, this keeps them from hearing the words of Jesus.
This doesn't answer my question. Where else can I learn about the teachings of Jesus?

I'll help you out, my brotha. I've been voted most likely to send one to hell so I am well qualified.

Jesus did not support all that is contained in the Old Testament. Follow the teachings of Jesus. The truth will make you free.
Hey, I'm not saying that we should obey the Levitical law. Just pointing out that the Bible DOES indeed have something to say about homosexual activity, regardless of whether or not it is between 2 consenting adults. And that "something" is, it's a sin.

Your position is confusing. If Levitical Law doesn't need to be obeyed, how can it be a sin?

Do you believe the following is considered a sin? If not, why so with the verse on homsexual activity?

Leviticus 19:27
"You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard."

Here's one that Christians don't seem to observe and remain unrepentant about.

Leviticus 19:27
"You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard."
because oh great one, even though Christians are not under duress with regard to the mosaic law, the principles in the law still stand, therefore we don't steal, we don't kill or murder, are not insolent to our parents etc etc, all principles established in the law and equality binding in Christians, oh yeah i nearly forgot nor do we mess about with the sewer of the body!

Do you "round off the side-growth of your heads [or] harm the edges of your beard"?

Do you "wear a garment upon you of two kinds of material mixed together"?


You continue to show your hypocrisy borne of bigotry.

You proven that there's little point in discussing anything with someone as bigoted and hypocritical as you.

Perhaps some day, you'll come to know the teachings of Jesus.

He has not judged you, he has merely pointed out an obvious fact.

Why don't you tell us what the principles are and why you feel that you are not required to follow them.

It was you that claimed there were principles. Looks like you are going with your usual 'descend into madness' routine that you use when you have no answer to a question.
