Im sorry buying animals for sacrifice and giving gold to the temple were monetary fines.
And that is exactly the reason Jesus died. He was the perfect sacrifice, offered to those whom he loved.
Heb 7:27 He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself.
Heb 9:11 But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) 12 he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.
Heb 9:24 For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. 25 Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, 26 for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Heb 10:10 And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. 11 And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, 13 waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. 14 For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified. 15 And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying, 16 "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds," 17 then he adds, "I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more."
You keep trying to justify yourself by telling me that stealing from your boss or lying aren’t sins against God, when you know they are. Why do you lie to yourself?
Then you say:
Show me where Fornication or adultery is a crime, and ill show you a dozen places where heroes fornicate to their hearts content and god still loves them.
King Davids crime was he killed the husband, not that he screwed his wife. If we read Nathans parable thats basically teh core element in the story. David is taking the woman from a man not that he is screwing her.
King Saul and Samuel roll around naked in Chronicles all night, and they were prophecying according to the text. I can find the scirpture if you want late ron.
And all that is making MY point. All men sin. All men need a Savior and a Mediator, between God the Father and man. Jesus died to be the perfect sacrifice for all time for those whom he loved and who believed in Him.
I just checked the 613 laws in the OT and no where does it say lying is a sin. The closest is when being a witness to court, but ive never been to court and have never lied there, so i have not broken that law. Technicality sure, but thats what it says.
There you go again, trying to add words to the bible. Putting words in God’s mouth is a sin as well. It says nothing about “court” you are inserting that into the text yourself.
