D,
If you are a faithful husband, you should be a faithful Christian. Then you would know that the Old Testament was nailed to the Cross at Calvary and the stoning was in it. If she was unfaithful you are permitted to divorce her and remarry another. I would choose a Christian girl if it were me. Just stay away from my wife... She is already taken. I might suggest that you begin reading, studying, and obeying GOD's WORD. Study these scriptures and see what you think. To become a Christian:
1. HEAR - Romans 10:14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?
2. BELIEVE - In Mark 16:16, Jesus said “He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.”
3. REPENT - Luke 13:3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.
4. CONFESS CHRIST - 1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
5. BE BAPTIZED - Romans 6:3-4 do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
6. CONTINUE TO BE FAITHFUL - Jesus said in Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.”
Send me a note if you have questions. I am anxious to hear from you. Have a Great day.

Its says that in the old testament under the Jewish laws. Jesus fulfilled the law and all he asks of us today is that we love him and love others as we love ourselves. If you want to go to prison for the rest of your life, you can choose to be ignorant and use no discretion at all when it comes to rightly dividing the word of God. You have no discerment.

That was the old covenant. We have a new covenant now:
"Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant which I made with their fathers when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant which they broke, though I was their husband, says the Lord. But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it upon their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people." (Jeremiah 31:31-33)
"And he took bread, and when he had given thanks he broke it and gave it to them, saying, 'This is my body which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.' And likewise the cup after supper, saying, 'This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.'" (Luke 22:19-20)
"In speaking of a new covenant he treats the first as obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away." (Hebrews 8:13)

You live on this side of Calvary not before Calvary. Law has been fulfilled, Grace has been ushered in. On this side of Calvary you can't stone her but you can "heap coals of fire on her head" by returning good for the evil she has done.

Should you stone your wife? Only if you want to get the electric chair for 1st degree murder.

No, times have changed. Jesus said not to get divorced unless this happens. So leave it up to God, he will give you revenge.
