Say the truth, then I will get it.
And sad to say I knew that you would not but it is not me you argue with.
FYI this happens to be a law that Jesus is quoting
Mat 18:16 But if he will not hear [thee, then] take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
And Peter uses another law (No one witness may be used to establish the truth)
2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.[/i]
And Paul uses another one
2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth
So you see...... it is Jesus and His Chosen Prophets and Apostles you are arguing with and not me

[Mat 18:15-16]
15/ "If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault,
just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.
16/ But if he will not listen, take one or two others along,
so that 'every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.'Jesus is not Moses.
Moses will judge and apply the law for "each sinful action of ours.'
(You are reading the verse 16 above in this context.)
However, Jesus is the one who changes "our beings which are sinful."
So above verse is not about "one or two sins and applicable laws to them."
But it is saying about "the salvation of the sinful man."
In fact, after that verses Jesus is talking about forgiveness of seventy times seven,
which means once for all forgiveness/salvation of Jesus.
If you wish to teach others following the above verse,
then why don't you observe this commandment of Jesus:
"
Love your neighbor
as yourself."
Do this. Only this one will suffice.

I will not explain other verses that you quoted.
Overall, the scriptures are to be read with full fear of God.
And it will heal the readers.
Do not read/study the Scriptures to get profound insights to teach others,
as the Scriptures is not meant for such.
Nevertheless, if one does so, woe to him.
He will naturally be judging and accusing others to fulfill his selfish desire,
confronting with God. We can easily guess how his end result would be.
I guess you do not understand my previous posts well,
please take time to read it over.
