I used to lift with a group of Powerlifters at a local YMCA and many of us are Christians. We were grieved when one of the instructors there was told not to have the radio on Christian stations because it might offend people. Never mind offending christian powerlifters that were benching 600 lbs, and squating 800 lbs.

I know John will give you an excellent answer. But till then, let me give you a couple. First; to say that God is Under a law, is to make that law God, and not God himself. When God acts in accordance with a law He has given, it's because that law is good. It's good in that He gave it, but it's not that His hands are tied and he really wants to do other than the law but can't.
Secondly; Dt.25:3 and others like it, are dealing with actions against Finite creatures, therfore the penalty is finite. Eternal Punishment is a just punishment because it is against an Eternal Infinate being. The greater the one sinned against, the greater the punishment. How much punishment. Infinate. On Christ or on us.

I was 11 when I found my older brother's porn, which he found and "borrowed" from my dad's not-very-well hidden stash, which he got from one of his co-workers.
Years later my sister admitted she also found dad's porn and was "troubled" by it.
Long before the WWW was invented my dad still managed to corrupt 3 of his 4 kids just by being morally lax and careless.
Lesson to all fathers out there.

They told me there were counterfeits to the Holy Spirit, so I stopped believing God could do miracles. They told me there were counterfeit social gospels, so I stopped worrying about the tyranny happening to my neighbor. They told me there were counterfeit meetings where the Catholic Pope was emulated, so I stopped going to public meetings expressing my love for Christ. They told me there were Catholics in the pro-life movement, so I stopped fighting for the lives of the unborn. They told me that all my translations of the bible were bad, while I wanted to share the gospel to a foreigner in another tongue, and they didn't know old English, so I stopped sharing the bible with my friends. They told me to conform to all authority of any man on a payroll, and the man told me it was wrong to bring the bible to a street corner, being offensive. They told me so many things, that I decided to stay home. And I read in the news today that one million people in Brazil walked together to express their love of Christ to the world. And I wonder what wise man is going to tell them to stop it and go home like me.

Randy You are exactly right, speaking out against sin is just and righteous. But not if we partake in those same sins ourselves, we must first take the plank out of our own eye, before we are fit to take the speck out of our brother's eye.
I am having troubles loving my enemies in the past while, and at times others in general. I've had some bad experiences lately with unrighteous people, I keep having to ask God to create in me a clean heart. Some people are really hard to love because of their sin, I need God to help me to forgive as God has forgiven me. I'm sure others are able to relate.

Why is this guy Barry from Canada being so hateful and disrespectful to you Americans? Why is he making the charge of Americans Mouthing off when it appears that he is doing that very thing. I've visited his web page that he has on Sermon Audio and it appears to have some good christian content. But the remarks he is making are not in keeping with what he espouses on his sight. If Barry is a christian, shouldn't he have some respect for American Christians? People have reasons for wnating to defend their countries honor, I'm sure Canadians do as well. That does not make them idolitors. Lets pray positivly for Barry. Being Anti American does not automaticly equate to being spiritual. As chistians, we realize we have a higher allegance, yet we are still supposed to uphold the welfare of the countries we live in. So God bless the believers in the US and Canada. Which, by the way, are both in North America, are they not?
