Are you truly a Christian if you don't stone adulterers? Are you truly a Christian if you don't stone adulterers?

The Bible seems very clear to me that adulterers should be stoned to death, yet I constantly see people claiming to be Christians who would never do such a thing. I've only recently become a Christian, but it seems to me that the blasphemers who claim to be devout who are not willing to do God's will should be stoned to death as well.

How can people claim to be Christian if they aren't willing to carry out God's will?

Christian dosent mean to follow the bible. Just look at its cover and accept the blind faith. Don't search belive. Christians are not theologists.
So the answer is yes.

"I, the lord, do not change".

So, short answer: Not really, Pauline Christianity must be blasphemy.

Somewhat longer answer: Christianity doesn't really have all that much to do with the Bible, so yes.

The bible says you should love your neighbor...so...? If you are referring to Leviticus Law for a Levite Priest of the Old Testament then you have no idea what you are talking about. How can someone pull a line from a book ie Leviticus a book writing for the Godlike standard for a Levi Priest and just throw it out there like see we should stone people lolrofl its like hey guys i was in this tourny and I had AA and I got it in and lost so poker is riggged!!!!!! lol trolls!!!!!!!

I think the more important question is why would God ever command such a thing?

My guess is that she holds an inexplicable hatred towards solid aggregate.

From basic observation.
Don't tell me that some read the bible cuz I know that but the vast majority don't . they are just ignorant agnostics and the cover is sufficient to them

why would being a Christian require believing that adulterers should be stoned to death?

Why does God have to change for his/her actions or rules to change. If a kid shot another kid at a high school and the school did nothing, then 2 more shootings happened and the school got metal detectors...did the school change? They didn't have rules involving metal detectors before. Or did the people change and the school responded? I can change rules for my kids but its usually more about how they are acting and less about how I am changing.

These rules were for levitical priests. They didn't even apply to the other tribes at the time. They were just for levitical priests. So even back then God was apply some rules for some and different ones for others. I don't think its about him/her changing but more about humanity changing

Romans 7:6
"But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code. "

We as Christians have died to the law of sin and death and are born again to a living hope.

John 1:17
"For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ."

Galatians 5:4
"For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God's grace."

God will judge those outside the church, that's not our job. But we SHOULD judge those within the church, as it is written "purge the wicked from among you" and not to associate with anyone who claims to be Christian but continues to walk in darkness (1 Corinthians 5:11)

The 'love' parts are the best to cherry pick.

This is a misnomer. It's true that all sin and fall short of the glory of God, but not everyone is wicked. Not everyone lives a life of drunkenness, debauchery, greed, adultery, etc.

1 John 3:7
"Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous."

Righteousness is achievable through faith in Jesus Christ. There will be a separation of the righteous from the unrighteous on judgement day.
