Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her. [/quote] the bible was set up as a means for a "civilized" society back in the day. it took pieces of spiritual guidance and inter-weaved it with man's law. It is fallible because it was written by man, not god. god didn't set up the printing press. God didn't dip the pen's in the ink. God had as much to do with the bible as with the super bowl. [/quote] Exactly, especially since it was manipulated all throughout history. Constantine saved the roman empire by manipulating it way back in 325AD. [/quote] How exactly did he manipulate the ancient Scriptures by mere collecting them into one Book? [/quote] Council of nicaea... research it. [/quote]

Here is a Bible verse in the New Test that says love is not jealous: 1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient. Love is kind. Love isn't jealous. It doesn't sing its own praises. It isn't arrogant.
Here is a Bible verse in the New Test that says God is love: 1 John 4:8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
Here is a Bible verse in the Old Test that says God is a jealous God: Exodus 20:5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God
How do you explain that contradiction? Love is not supposed to be jealous, yet God is a jealous God. Why does his word contradict itself on this topic?
