1 | What of the Law applies to me a believe? | Romans | MJH | 200847 | ||
Romans 2:6 “God ‘will give to each person according to what he has done.’” Romans 2:13 “It is not those who hear the Law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the Law who will be declared righteous.” Romans 2:27 “The one who is not circumcised physically and yet obeys the Law will condemn you who, even though you have the written code and circumcision, are a Law-breaker.” Romans 3:31 “Do we, then, nullify the Law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the Law.” Romans 6:1 “What shall we say then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means!” Romans 6:15 “What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means! Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?” Romans 7:12 “So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good.” Romans 7:22 “For in my inner being I delight in God’s Law” Romans 8:3b “And so he condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met is us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the Spirit.” Romans 8:7 “The sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God’s Law, nor can it do so.” |

MJH- perhaps one of the most offensive injustices one can do is to yank individual verses out of their Scriptural context in order to convince themselves they are right (or others). One might do the same to argue that God is a bird. Psalms 91:4 (NASB) 4 He will cover you with His pinions, And under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark. The lack of understanding is apparent but it is also apparent that I'm not being successful here. With that, I'll not go where this is going and not encourage you to dig deeper in the wrong hole. There is no end to it brother. God bless, Jeff |

Jeff, Sorry Jeff, I was sort of playing with you there (with the Roman's quotes). I know that Scripture has the answers we are looking for but not everyone reads them the same way and they were written in a specific context. Romans, of which I've studied and read, has more commentaries on it than any other book in the Bible. Honestly, I do hear what you are saying. And in part I agree. I just wasn't begging for a debate on the issue of the Law, I simply wanted to know if anyone had links to well written papers on the topic, that's all. Nothing more, nothing less. And yes, there seemingly is no end to it, but that doesn't mean I don't want to at the very least try to understand the opposing views. It is apparently possible that when one types, their words don’t always come across in the same light they meant for them to be read. If I was offensive, I apologize. God Bless too, MJH |

Thanks MJH- and a debate was not my intention either. Honestly, it was your "apparent" plea,struggle of six years and not seeming to have finally received an answer that even got my attention in the first place. I can honestly say that I've spent that much time and more struggling with trying to understand some things that others seem to have settled; at least they say they have. I finally did reach a conclusion that there are some things that I will not understand whether they are attainable in this life or not. The important thing is that we keep seeking His truth. God bless, Jeff |
