Corruption itself is not forgivable, but leniency should be shown to those
caught doing it, especially if nobody is directly hurt and the person reforms.
2. "Hate the sinner, love the sin"
On one hand people want to punish the sinners as severe as possible,
preferably with death penalty. On the other hand they don't have much moral
aversion of behaving in the same way, when given the chance.

IMHO, Jesus Christ is God and He doesn't need to seek Glory. However, for
the benefit of sinners, He needs to 显出神的荣耀来 in this case so the
sinners may repent and be saved.
On the contrary, the greatest pain would be suffered by the sinners who
refuse to accept Jesus Christ as the only Savior.
if the meaning of each word in natural language is exactly the same
regardless of the context, those who study computational linguistics would
be jobless. |
