Originally posted by Charles View PostWell, it seems to me most of the posters in this thread are misreading what Jesus actually meant to say in Matthew 7:5. Jesus could say what he said because he was not a sinner. No one can claim that they are not so it goes for all human beings all the time which is why a homosexual is no different than anyone else in this context.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Your ability to exegete scripture is severely lacking.

Originally posted by Charles View PostNever said he was talking about himself... If you think you are allowed to say what Jesus said I think his entire point is lost on you. We are all sinners and I believe his point is that we all turn our blind eye to our own shortcomings when pointing at others. And we should know our own errors...The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

...Which is what we were doing here: We merely pointed out the Buttigeig shouldn't be publicly calling out someone else for their Christian failings when he is living in sin himself.
Matthew 7:1 “Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?Last edited by Sparko; 04-10-2019, 12:56 PM.

Originally posted by Charles View PostThat was actually not what he said or the logic implied. He is basing what he says on an interpretation you can have all sorts of reasons for disagreeing with and you could even be right. But to suggest he knowingly claims wrong is right seems a little unfair.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
