Why do Christians think they got a green light to fck before marriage and swine up?

The just shall live by faith.

dusouljah is right. We're gonna mess up because we are not PERFECT.

Even to the point of "knowing better" you're still gonna screw up. Why? Because we don't look upon our own works to be accepted "good" by The Most High. It's called being self conscious and looking upon ourselves all the time to live a perfect life. It's impossible. That's why accepting Christ as Savior is the vital piece of faith because you're looking outside of yourself at HIS LIFE and HIS WORKS, not yours.

Sounds like u cant find out an answer so u come up with an excuse.

LOL @ "religion being a category of human behavior". What's your view of human behavior when your opinion is atheistic?

Once again..Christ did NOT give the TITLE Christianity.

If it's "personal relationship" then it wouldn't be a religion because a personal relationship has no TITLE attached to it.

Im sorty but your relationship with an invisible sky jew is the same as all the other myths and religions before it and currently.... U believe a man lived in a fish, a man got 2 of every animal on a boat he built, and a that Mary was a virgin that gave birth?(I dont get y other chicks dont try this)

I never said that the New Testament did not contradict the Old Testament, I merely asked for examples in which it did. Upon viewing your example, it became evident to me that Jesus's guidelines for personal behavior in Matthew 5 were not something that discredited all the laws of the Old Testament.

...which is why it's an example of the NT contradicting the OT.

While the New Testament greatly shapes Christianity, unless it discredits the entirety of the Old Testament, it can't be assumed that things not referred to directly/indirectly are no longer valid.

...unless your position is that, by no longer being Jewish, one need not follow Jewish law. or unless you think they're invalidated in a more general sense (say, if you don't believe in eye for an eye, and you then extend it to overly vengeful versus loving actions)

Sure, the parables and many of the stories in the Christian bible can't be taken literally, but laws seem pretty concrete. Especially if the laws remained unchallenged in the Christian bible.

well, then we have to come back to "are the laws in accordance with Christianity as a general concept"

LOL.....he's the gullible type, like most Christians and religious folk. Forgive him.
