The bible requires the death penalty for adultery.

We are all guilty for one or more of the ten commandments. The judge will be GOD and HE has set the criteria for a pardon. Adultery will be punished by GOD not any government. There is a story in the Bible where JESUS told those who were without sin to cast the first stone.
Remember, GOD loves you even when you don't love Him!

Yes, though I would find it very hard. I think the world would be a better place if all laws were punished according to the Bible. If you knew you were going to die I be you would think twice before doing any such acts. Plus, when you give yourself in marriage to a person perhaps you will think it through and not let it go this far if you do not truly love them.

We already have laws surrounding divorce proceedings that "punish" adulterers. If you're asking if someone should be stoned, then, maybe ... I'd consider it, depending on how egregious the affair was.

You are referring to Levitical Law, which we are not under. However, the Bible does define adultery as a sin, and sin needs repentance. THERE IS A WAY OUT OF PUNISHMENT OF SIN SINCE JESUS CAME AND DIED ON THE CROSS. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS REPENT, AND IT WILL BE FORGIVEN. Wasn't it nice of God to provide a way out of sin? His name is Jesus Christ. He died for all our sin. THE PRICE HAS BEEN PAID BY JESUS. JUST REPENT, AND ASK FOR FORGIVENESS AND THEN "GO AND SIN NO MORE." God bless

Absolutely not! If my husband is unfaithful I would deal with him in my own way. I am not Christian and do not want my life dictated by the bible.
