Acharya Prashant Explores Jesus’ Teachings on Women, Sin & Adultery ✨

Video Information: Acharya Prashant speaking on Jesus at The Myth Demolition Tour on 26th March 2016, Rishikesh, India.

Excerpt:

Lust (Matthew 5:27-30)

You have heard that it was said, ‘You must not commit adultery.’
But I say to you that everyone who even looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

So if your eye—even your good eye—causes you to lust, gouge it out and throw it away. For it is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

Divorce (Matthew 5:31-32)

And if your hand—even your stronger hand—causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

It was also said, "Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce. But I say to you that every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
