The hypocrisy of men of the Bible.

Can anyone explain what is with the hypocrisy of men of the Bible?

When Tamar was told, "Your father-in-law is on his way to Timnah to shear his sheep," she took off her widow's clothes, covered herself with a veil to disguise herself, and then sat down at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah. For she saw that, though Shelah had now grown up, she had not been given to him as his wife. When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face. Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her by the roadside and said, "Come now, let me sleep with you." "And what will you give me to sleep with you?" she asked...He said, "What pledge should I give you?" "Your seal and its cord, and the staff in your hand," she answered. So he gave them to her and slept with her, and she became pregnant by him.
About three months later Judah was told, "Your daughter-in-law Tamar is guilty of prostitution, and as a result she is now pregnant." Judah said, "Bring her out and have her burned to death!" -Genesis 38:13-24

And I couldn't understand what David did to get Uriah's wife as his wife.

How could a God who hates wrong and hypocrisy tolerate this? Could this perhaps mean that mankind was helpless and hopeless in their wickedness without Christ having set an example? And if so, what was the purpose in all of God's laws if such alleged "men of God" couldn't obey them?

How strange. This kinda stuff makes it hard to debate with atheists sometimes.

This is the third or fourth thread you've begun attacking men and women of the Bible. You 'demonstrate' they are sinful, prideful, wrong-headed and an embarrassment to God. (All of which is true, by the way; just like you.)

I'm really growing tired of your judgments. I will consider contacting both the website administers and perhaps God himself and then perhaps we'll see who is more righteous. I've already exposed prejudice in one of your prior posts. I hardly think you're in the right to judge me.

Archie the Preacher said:

Do you not grasp that God - presuming you have gone to him in surrender and faith - has already forgiven every sin you have ever committed, and every sin you will ever commit? It isn't like He doesn't know or suspect what sins you will commit tomorrow, or next week.

I know this. You assume that I'm that ignorant about the scriptures, but you are ignorant of me. You assume this because you don't know my intentions in my inquisitions, another reason I don't believe you have a right to judge me.

The difference between me and a man like Judah, is that unlike Judah, though God may have forgiven me of all my sins and any other sin I may commit, I do not have the right to freely and deliberately sin. Such a thing cannot be forgiven on my part, esp since I have come to knowledge of the truth, just as it is written;

'If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left,' -Hebrews 10:26

I suppose the difference between me and Judah however, is that I have one final sacrifice that has been made for my sins by the Lamb of God himself who died to take away my sins and if i were to continue to sin I would might as well be crucifying him all over again and putting him to shame.

But excuse me if I can help but shake my head at the immoral acts of some men of God. Don't get me wrong; I don't necessarily wanna doubt God's righteousness, but I must admit that such a thing certainly does amaze me that such a man could possibly be deemed worthy in the eyes of God, but if God did then I don't doubt he wasn't wrong for doing so, but perhaps all too compassionate and merciful.

I am content with the way things are today; come to Christ and let his love and your love for him act as a catalyst for your soul and the blood of Christ wash away your impurities and sins and sin no more, but follow Christ your Lord in his every footstep, and if you dare deliberately step of the path, you say goodbye to the Lord forever.

I just feel that's the way it should be and I'm surprised it was ever the other way around. Once again; it raises question as to what the law was for.
