Hiya Pattycake, I'm glad the site helped. But I just did the googling for you that you couldn't do. Remember, as always, just take what anything/one says with a grain of salt - check what the Bible says for the final answer :-). Meanwhile, glad I was able to help with the immediate question/need. Cheri |

Tim, Shalom If we are not Israel, then what is Rom. 11:13 ato the end all about? Just who/what are we grafted into? Who/what is the olive tree? By whose/or what root are we nourished? What do we do with Rom. 9:6-16 and Ezek. 47:22-23? Cheri |

Tim, Please forgive. I just reread my post to you and it sounds very harsh. It wasn't intended to be. I really do see myself grafted into the commonwealth of Israel (not a Jew, but adopted into the family of Promise) - am I wrong? Cheri |

Shalom again, dear Tim, I'm glad you didn't see it as harsh, but I sure did!! I try to be much gentler than that sounded, bad me bad me lol Oh OK. If you've followed the thread, then you saw what I posted before about the letter and the spirit of the law. I obey what I can because I choose to do so, not because I'm required to do so or for any kind of gain. My standing before the Father is completely in the finished work of the Son. And as far as I can see, about the only thing that is part of the "Law" as some call it that doesn't happen by following the two great commands are kashrut and the sabbath - and those are simply choices we are all free to make :-) Cheri |

Pete, May I interject here? I think I may see part of the problem. You've just finished in the last day or two reading Matthew, you're finishing up with Luke and expect to be through John by morning? That's like eating a New York cream cheese cake in one sitting (my all-time favorite food). I'm gonna be a mighty sick puppy and then be all hungry again. You're reading far too fast. Slow down. Let your spirit digest what you're taking in. Go back to Matthew, read a few chapters, and find a few on-line commentaries and read those and then let your mind and spirit mull all that over before continuing with a few more chapters the next day. Follow the references that your bible affords you, those take you to other places in the bible that covers the same idea, or where words are used in like manner. If you slow down, you may find it's much easier to understand. Seriously, give Matthew about a week's worth of attention before moving on. Give it a try and see if that doesn't help? Shalom :o) Cheri |

208 | who was exodus written to? | OT general | skccab | 212088 | ||
Hannah, Something that I left unsaid and shouldn't have - Deuteronomy is kind of a shortened repeat of the books of Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers, or at least a repeat of the commands (civil, moral and religious laws) found in those other books. Cheri |

Greetings Flyman, Here I am getting into speculation which is virtually useless, but my 2 cents worth on this would be that He already knew what the Jews were expecting - a man, not God to be Messiah - and they had already or were on the brink of rejecting Him for that very reason. He was simply confirming their own belief - that "no one is good but God..." so He either IS their Messiah (and God) or He is not. Once again, there are others who might can give you a more scriptural basis, I cannot, I don't know of any scriptural reference for your question (which is a very good one, btw) - but "WHY" questions are hard to answer without book, chapter, and verse, which I just don't have. So, once again, this was purely speculation. Cheri |

Shalom Clayton, No problem. The man is a gem. He, along with a lot of others who been on the Forum since it began, is a big part of the spiritual glue that keeps us all focused on Jesus and the Bible, not letting this forum go the route of many others in speculations and just a lot of unbiblical junk. Yes, I can see your interest. I, too, am very interested in our Hebrew Roots, and that journey is very rich and awesome. Since my email is in my profile and not private, it's skccab@yahoo.com in case you don't know how to view user profiles. :o). Cheri |

Hi again, We are very happy to see you here, and hope you stay around for a long long time to study God's word with us. But we (you and me) are beginning to break the guidelines by talking back and forth as a chat. This is not allowed on the Forum. I sure hope I'm not sounding rude, that's certainly not my intent - but we need to follow Lockman's guidelines. OK? Those guidelines are there to keep this Forum sola scriptura. OK? Shalom Cheri |

Shalom MJH, Thanks for the info. That's just my understanding, as I prefaced my answer. I actually thought that the word echad is the reason we as Christians can say, "God in Three Persons," a compound singularity. Tax your brain for me please, I would love to know what verse is on the tip of your mind for the Jews thinking. It's probably the perfect one, and I have no idea what it might be. I'm looking forward to learning about it. I'll also ask my pastor or some of our Jewish congregants this Saturday (maybe they'll know what it is). Still learning and loving it :o) Cheri |

Shalom Kamschoolgrad, Well, here I am, getting myself into trouble again here, but I have to agree for the most part with your dilemma. We love to quote the "Ten Commandments" and then weekly come up with excuses why we don't observe Shabbat. Just because the Jews didn't observe it properly is not a good reason that we shouldn't at least try. (I find it a joy.) Jesus observed Sabbath. Eating according to what is written in the Bible is not difficult (all the man-made dietary laws probably are - but the Bible only has about 2 pages of do's and don't's and those are not too hard). Jesus observed God's dietary dictates. Now, some of the death penalty situations - the only thing I can state there is that as individuals we MUST abide by our city, state, and country laws even when they seem to go against the written judgments of God. (We must believe that God put these lawmakers into office for His own good reasons.) We cannot become a society of vigilantes. That would be as bad as the civil laws being totally wrong. Even the Jews, way back before Jesus walked the earth had come to the conclusion that one man in 70 years put to death was too many - so we (Christians) are not the only ones who think we know better than God in some cases!! :o) So, for those areas that we cannot take into our own hands - just pray, and pray about the situations - we can do nothing else. As far as things that we, as individuals, can do to obey God's judgments, I believe that we should. We are to be disciples of Jesus and one of the main things a disciple is expected to do is to DO what and as the Master does/did. A disciple talks like his Master, thinks like his Master, acts like his Master, reads what his Master reads, loves what his Master loves and hates what his Master hates. (Most Christians do this.) The only real answer I can tell you to give these friends of yours is to never mind what others do or don't do, if they believe that they are being led of the Spirit to obey God's commands (that is, the ones they can legally do) they should. If the Spirit is not leading them, then they should not, because it would just become legalistic "works" that benefit nothing. For the most part, I believe Christians do obey the majority of God's statutes and judgments when they simply keep Jesus the focus of their lives - the Holy Spirit is NOT going to lead them astray!! So, Sunday, ham, man-made observances over God-ordained feasts is not really the issue - it's Who dwells within, Who guides you in your decisions. Sorry I couldn't help more in the death-sentence areas. Maybe someone else can...:o) Cheri |

Hi Brad, Certainly. I thought I had clarified it when I stated that there are laws that didn't apply to Him. First, maybe we're on different pages, I'm thinking of the 613 laws. You too? If that's the case, the statement remains. All means all, nothing else. Jesus could only "fulfill" what applied to Him. He was not at that time a High Priest, He was not a Levite, He was not a father, He was not a husband, He wasn't in the military, and He certainly wasn't a woman - yet there are laws for these groups of people. I certainly wasn't saying anything derogatory about my Lord!! During His lifetime, I have no doubt that as the opportunity arose He performed what was written just exactly the way God had always intended it to be done, in the spirit in which it was to be done. Sorry for the confusion. Cheri |
