why is God so hung-up about sin, anyway?
Men after God's own heart:
David - had sex with dozens or maybe hundreds women while king. Some were his wives, some were his sex slaves. Arranged for murder because he wanted one.more.woman. But she was married.
But yet God loved him. Why? How can someone so morally ambiguous be so revered? Does God even care? Or if he cares too much, then why?

Saul committed suicide to avoid capture.

Laugh at me if you want, but....
I talked to God one time, and asked him the same question. Know what he said?
"I'm not hung up about sin. It's just that EVERYBODY PISSES ME OFF! So, I just laugh, because everybody is a sinner. Just ask them to DENY it!"
I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.

Depends on who you listen to. BOTH stories are circulated and no real evidence of wither exists except after the kast time David met with Saul, Saul was dead.
If there is an actual truth with evidence out there, I don't think it's going to get around much. David is a hero to both Jews and Christians.

How do we know David is in heaven? Maybe God loved him, but still cast him into hell for his unrepentant sexual behavior.

David was under a different covenant. That's what I was wondering about earlier.

uh, different question.
How did Gnostic Christian Bishop get Darin's account?

Then "David killed Saul to gain control" is as much speculation as "did saul kill himself (it's written saul fell on his own sword).
David repented about a lot of things. I think anyone would be hard-pressed to find a biblical scholar who thinks David - excuse the churchy-term - "died in his sins"
Right - he was under the Law; under the Law people made OTHER sacrifices to God to atone for their hard hearts and all that. After Christ, none of that was needed - now we are not told to sacrifice "For God", we are told "If you love people, you will sacrifice FOR them. Give them your time, because you take delight in that. Give them your food - because you delight in knowing they are fed. Etc. etc. etc.
Did ANYONE listen to the link? Seems like not.

Stories of the Prophets: Bible vs. Qur'an
When it comes to the means by which God has delivered revelation to mankind throughout history, God’s guidance has always been imparted to us through His Prophets, may God’s peace and blessings be upon them all. This shows us that Prophethood plays an important role in revelation.
Having revelation, or knowledge, is one thing. We also need a teacher to provide its correct interpretation, in order for mankind to make use of the knowledge and implement it properly. That's why you should be open-minded and adopt the straight Quranic approach.

that's all great but it flies in the face of Biblical teaching - where God himself, via his spirit, reveals himself to us. No prophets required.

You didn't get it. In Islam: David is a revered prophet of God. Muslims believe all this sins were falsely attributed to him by the authors of the man-made bible.that's all great but it flies in the face of Biblical teaching - where God himself, via his spirit, reveals himself to us. No prophets required.
In Christianity: Jesus is a recognized prophet of God.

Right - and because of Christ, nobody NEEDS a prophet to intercede on their behalf NOR to understand God's word. That's the beauty of it - Islam makes it hard to reach God; Islam creates arbitrary rules of no significance except to further build dependence upon a man-made order; a religion. Christianity does that too, sometimes...except nobody in Christianity is killing non-believers like the Islamists do.
If Christ were merely a prophet, like David - NO man is to be worshiped or revered anyway and certainly never EVER would ANY prophet condone KILLING People for drawing their image.

You forget that we reject your made-up cult. It was invented a few centuries ago by a sun-stroked outcast that molested little girls.
It continues today all around the world by atrocity after atrocity, against every single race, creed & religion exposed to you muzzies.
You are THE scourge upon the planet, and if you were honest you'd admit it.
