[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 4684241, member: 65823"] My bad. In the text, Jesus is teaching Simon (Lk. 7:44-48). Look at the contrast between the two (Lk. 7:44-46): You gave me no water - She gave me tears. You gave me no kiss -- She gives me tender affection. You gave me no oil - She gives me intimate honor. Simon failed, the woman passed. The woman had many sins, but now they are forgiven while Simon's sins are retained (Lk. 7:47-48) This lady lived under a different covenant than we do. Notice that the pardon occurred before the "great commission" of Mark 16:16 was given. Also, while Jesus walked on the earth, there were numerous times he forgave people for different reasons. You cannot do what this lady did and be forgiven. But, you can be a Christian, which she wasn't at least here. It's not recored, but if she was alive after the death of Jesus and responded to to the gospel in obedience, she would then be a Christian but not until then. [/QUOTE]
