Listening and Doing
19 My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. 21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.
22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.
26 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

One thing you can be sure, Gods Red lines do not move. What He says are Red lines to not crossover, He really means "Do not crossover" and be sure He will not change his position these things.
It is us who has to come to grips with Gods Moral Lines and Know that any argument we may feel justified to hold to; which in our minds; shifts the Red lines will not mount to a hill of beans when we as individuals stand before God the Creator of Heaven and Earth. Seriously do you really think your going to win the debate with God and convince him that he was wrong and you are right. "SERIOUSLY"
I suggest you repent "TURN AROUND" and accept what God says and surrender to him your life and your free will to Him and allow Him to write on your Heart His Laws and Ways of being and Doing.
Now is the time to get it right whilst you're on this earth, once you die all choosing stops, the choices have been made and are no more.
