God is love, the only texts that make any sense to me are those that embody humanity as a whole for the improvement of each persons life. God as i see him needs not my help to admonish those who sin, but he does say to love, forgive and teach with the same love that he freely gave us all through the knowledge and teachings of Jesus. There is no doctrine of Jesus that compels anyone to extract a life in his name, rather he says, John: 15;16 You did not choose me. I chose you and sent you out to produce fruit, the kind of fruit that will last. Then my Father will give you whatever you ask for in my name. 17.. So i command you to love each other ;. We can debate ad infinitum or just believe the truth of peace and love for all, and that is the intent everything else is worldly living in a society of mans rules, there is little good will in mans law.
