Matthew 5 KJV
20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
21 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
I was waiting and hoping for your response.
Well done.

Ohh. The Pro Patria thing reminded me of a military regiment motto wondered if you were a canadian vet
Didn't he specifically tell Magdalene go and sin no more? Also, I'm pretty sure the Book of Revelation is pretty much the manifest destruction of mankind's sin finally pissing God off one too many times without an inkling of repentance.
He did say this to a variety of people, including a man He healed who was crippled, and a woman caught in adultery (in John) after He told her He would not her He would not condemn her.
A simple Google search would have told you that it was not Magdalene.
John.8
[10].....Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? [11] She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
Yeah he also said “who is left to accuse you?” And then he said “neither do i accuse you”. So theres an obvious balance of Jesus various ways of dealing with different situations. But the Bible does say Jesus’ heart (or his core being) is “gentle and humble“ Matt 11:29. Thats not to say he isnt also other things at other times but it is his default setting if you will
"Kill" meant murder at the time the KJV was translated.
"Smite" and "slay" is lawful and/or accidental killing, and can mean anything from "justifiable homicide" to "involuntary manslaughter", depending on context.
Here's a link to Numbers 35, which lays down the rules regarding "manslayers" and "murderers."
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Numbers+35&version=KJV
It breaks down the differences between involuntary manslaughter and death, and even discusses what we would refer to as premeditated first degree murder-
20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
If the manslayer claims he killed someone unintentionally, he had to flee to one of six cities as outlined in the above chapter until he was either tried and convicted of his crimes (which required 2 or more witnesses) or until the current high priest died, at which point he was free to return to his native city.
Was expecting some haggling.
Slay as well can in Hebrew mean “take an inheritance with”
Not everyone one finds Cain can kill him he could only die once but everyone who find Cain can take an inheritance with him. To find: to do the same
Right on. His message everywhere he went was, "Repent, for the Kingdom is at hand. Gee, sounds like he is talking about sin now doesn't it?
No one ever said "repent of your attitude." It's always "repent of your sins."
This is not an either / or but a both / and. Notshirley78 is right that it involves a change of attitude- but that change also includes a change of action. Repentance includes both changing our attitude about sin - to agree with God about it's deadly nature, and change of action- Go and sin no more.
change your Attitude is the meaning of repent. If you change your Attitude to what you do..like stealing from someone then you won't do it again and you will feel happy ..no longer weighed down by fear of being found out or punished etc. So no longer missing the mark of being happy. It's a very simple thing...people dragging in hell etc ..adding fear ignorance and stupidity to thecmix is unnecessary.
repent would mean to change your thinking to his truth and be sorry you missed the mark of so doing
