1 | Still under 10 C's? | Ps 111:7 | may-it | 57851 | ||
Chris, You can visit this site, www.amazingfacts.org, It might help to answer your question.Likewise, may I ask if we are not under the law anymore or let me say if the law has nothing to do for us at present, what do you think is the standard the Lord will judge us when He comes? God Bless! |

May-it, I would discourage you from going to the Amazing Facts website, I have seen several of these broadcasts and they often misrepresent Scripture to make it sound like we are still under the Ten C's, but if you study the New Covenant Paul makes it clear that we are not under the Law and he also goes to some length, as does James, to show that you can't pick and choose parts of the Law, you are either under it (the Law, aka Mosaic covenant) or you are not (the New covenant, abiding in Christ, ie Law of Christ). There are other problems with AF that I won't go into here, but I would encourage you to take some of the references that you have recieved from AF, specifically from the New Testament and study the entire book that the references come from. I believe you will find that the verses are often taken out of context, just as the verses quoted by respectHim were. GOD bless!! chris |

Chris, I appreciate very much the time and effort you shared me to have a better understanding regarding this matter, However, I must be honest to say and with no offense but your ideas doesn't come clear to me. The fact that if we are under the new covenant it would lead us to Love and obedience to what the Lord has commanded us( John 14:15). Even if we put it outside the Bible concept we're all law abiders in our respective societies, I haven't known any government that has no law to follow and of course disobedience to the law comes the punishment. The difference is in God's government all is ruled by LOVE and that by sending His Son, Jesus Christ we are free from the penalty of disobeying the Law. "God has given man a complete rule of life in His law. Obeyed, man shall live by it, through the merits of Christ. Transgressed, it has the power to condemn. The law sends men to Christ, and Christ points them back to the law."(signs of the times-sept. 4,1884) In regard to AF, we don't have any power to make judgement among others, I respect if you're not interested to it but for discouraging me to go in there am sorry but I find truth in it. The problem with us is that if it doesn't come up to what we believed we hold our hands off to it. Moreover, I pray that we continue to grow in God's grace and wisdom. Thank you and may the Lord bless you, too. |

May-it, I disagree about making judgements. We must discern the truth of whatever we encounter, and we do this by considering the legitimicy of their sources. I have found several cases when AF pulls a verse, like Romans 7:12 out of context to make it sound like we are under the Law, when if you actually consider the whole chapter, that is not at all what Paul is suggesting. I would encourage you to do a careful study of the entire book of Galatians, as these believers also wanted to live under the Law. If anyone tells you that Paul didn't mean what he said, ask yourself why he said it. In Galatians Paul condemns the believers for returning to the Law, he shows that Grace and Law cannot be mixed, and that if you are under any of the Law you are under all of it! I will be praying for you my friend and I hope you will pray for me! GOD bless!! chris |
