1 | Does it take away sins or not? | Lev 16:34 | Bill Mc | 19832 | ||
Sir Pent, one other comment if I may. It is not with a spirit of self-righteousness that I posted my sarcasm. My righteousness is found in Christ and Him alone, not myself nor my ability to keep the Law. It is with a spirit of sadness that I responded with sacrcasm. Despite all the wonderful posts here on this BB stating what the work of Christ has accomplished, some will still teach their own brand of Judaism. That it would be tolerated and encouraged for the sake of 'keeping the peace' shocks me. While I would agree that those of the Jewish faith might come here occasionally seeking answers, they would need to be shown the truth in love. To them I would say that indeed the Messiah has come and they would need to turn from their tutor, the Law, a shadow, to the exact representation of God in Jesus Christ - the reality. But to tell them that they need Christ and are still under the OT Law, as Mr. Butler insists, is Galatianism and needs to be confronted. And it has been, at length. In many prior posts, Bible-believing Christians have shown with scriptural support that Christ alone is our redemption, reconciliation, justification, sanctification, and righteousness. Is this forum about the completed work of Jesus Christ, "It is finished", or is it about a return to Judaism? If we are here to reinstate Judaism then, as I said, I am greatly saddened that Christ's very bride, the church, is turning from the 'good news' to another gospel that is really no gospel at all. In Christ and Him alone, Bill Mc |

Clarification .................................... Dear Bill Mc, It seems that you might have misunderstood my previous post. I am sorry for not being clear enough. I am NOT defending Judaism for the sake of "keeping the peace". In fact, I am not defending Steve's view on the Old Testament at all. I am purely focusing on the nature of your response to the original post. It seemed to me to be very negative, sarcastic, and off-topic. I feel that it is an inappropriate way to respond whether we disagree with a person or not. I would also say that whether your post was meant to convey "self-righteousness" or "saddness" is beside the point that it was potentially hurtful. So to clarify, I am not defending Steve's position, I am asking you to reflect on whether Jesus would be pleased with your response to it. |
