E5: Faithful and Inclusive Session 5: The Jesus Ethic

Faithful and Inclusive | Sessions

Fuquay compares the words and actions of Jesus in the New Testament to the Jewish law in the Old Testament. Viewers read where Jesus addresses unacceptable behavior by asking individuals he encounters to “sin no more.� Fuquay points out that Jesus says nothing about homosexuality, but does say much about heterosexual infidelity and that Jesus himself breaks Jewish law many times when the law is getting in the way of loving one another. Viewers are challenged to look at the life and teachings of Jesus and consider what they think Jesus would say on this topic.
