What I have been getting, from the conversation here, is that the one that helped his brother to sin is absolved by the brother that actually performed the sinned. Or that it is NOT possible to help or cause your weak partner or brother/sister to fail and fall. That, IMO, contradicts the scriptures that I have put forth.
What I have been saying all along is that BOTH have sinned. If we all agree on that, then we have no argument.

If he stands before God for his adultery, she also stands before God as culpable. That's all I'm saying.
Now, I'm finished with my part of the discussion.  |
I don't think we are reading past each other. You had stated over and over that you feel they both have sinned.
The rest of us feel the one party can share in the blame, but not the sin.
What you said in this last quoted post is what the rest of us believes and all that we've been saying over and over.
