Using your standards, when the Lord Jesus Christ who is the incarnate God assembled a group of 12 followers to proclaim His Father’s message after he retruned to heaven and one of those followers sinned by betraying him up to death, you would have supposed the Lord God to have said, “This is an outright failure; I have 8% of my followers betraying me. All is lost.” Is this what you’d say?

My Bible says nothing about Jesus or his followers raping children. It does say, "But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea."

You seriously miss the centrality of repentence and merciful forgiveness to the Scriptures. To those who extend mercy, mercy will be theirs. Where will you be standing on the day of judgement? Or are you simply your own judge?

Given my own sins, I’ve opted for mercy toward those who have sinned (please do NOT purposely misinterpret this as my condoning sin, as you have done).
