Romans 8:2
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.
What exactly does this mean? According to Torah:
Leviticus 20:10
‘If there is a man who commits adultery with another man’s wife, one who commits adultery with his friend’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
‘If there is a man who commits adultery with another man’s wife, one who commits adultery with his friend’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
Does this mean the death penalty is off the table? I know our Lord let a woman caught "in the very act" off the death penalty hook on 2 grounds: 1 - no one would testify against her and 2 - no one grabbed the man.
So how does that relate to this?
Matthew 5:28
but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Is that person liable to the death penalty?
