Matthew 5:27-29 "You have heard that it was said,'Do not commit adultery.' 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to loose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. Because Jesus taught something like that, and he was the sinless Son of God, you can be sure he never "lusted after a woman." |

maybe you should ask this on a christian forum many of us here do not know the bible by heart it would be like asking christians for a verse from the quran |

It is not in the version of the Bible approved by most churches, you find this reference in what is called the Gnostic scripts, more precisely in Gospel of Phillip as far as I know. Most Christians don't believe in it, but the idea was made famous with The Da Vinci Code. |

There is no verse in the New Testament that expresses Hazrat Isa’s(alaihi salam) feelings for a woman. |

My understanding of the relationship of Mary Magdalene is that she was an apostle of Jesus, that Jesus cast out seven demons from her (some argue that this might not mean literal demons, but illness or mental problems) There are also a number of passages which imply that Mary was a woman with a sinful background, though the perception that she was a prostitute, as far as I am aware is not biblical. Mary was not the only woman who was a follower of Jesus. I wonder if the reason her story is so well known, is because of the fact that she was a perfect example of the person that Jesus came for. A person who had lived a sinful life, and done many things which were wrong, but who geniunely wished to change, who geniunely repented, and then had geniune faith in their salvation. So her story in many ways is the message of the new testament. That by his death on the cross - Jesus paid for our sins, and his death, was enough - that even the most sinful person, if they truly repent, and truly believe in Jesus, is forgiven, and the slate is wipe clean, in gods eyes that person is restored to complete rightness with god. That her sins were many shows that God send his only son to die on our behalf, because he knew that we could not ever, with deeds, pay the price of our sins, it isnt possible. And god, being completely 100% just, could not allow sin to go unpunished, he is perfectly righteous and must judge sin. But at the same time God did not wish to send all human kind to hell - what to do.... the sin has to be paid for.... but we could not ever pay for it...So God sent his only son, who was sinless - to pay the price for our sin - this judgement had been made and was just - and we have a way to escape the torment of hell. The reason this is a gift, and not earned, is simple. We could never earn it, we could not hope to do enough good works to cancel out our own sin, much less 'earn'a home in heaven. The only way we can hope to have forgiveness, and to be made right in gods eyes, is by this gift. She was devoted to Jesus by all accounts (and most biblical theologians seem to be of the opinion that this devotion was never romantic and that this was simply the imagination o f many people). What is known is that she was present at Christ's crucifixion and burial, and she was the first person to see him |
