1 | John 5:45Does it what you think it does? | Mark 7:19 | BradK | 176211 | ||
Hello Face, The cross continues to be the pivotal event of scripture and for mankind. Heb 10:1 "For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those who draw near." Rom 7:6 "But now we have been released from the Law, having died to that by which we were bound, so that we serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter." Rom 10:4 "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes." The claims of the law were met when the believer was put to death in the Person of a Substitute. God's law still stands in all it's righteousness, but our relationship to it has changed. We are no longer under its dominion and condemnation. The believer's relation has been so changed through the death and resurrection of Christ that the Law is no longer his master. Gal 3:24- 25 "Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith.But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor." Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

2 | So the law was valid until his death? | Mark 7:19 | Face | 176214 | ||
so then when Yah'shua said that heaven and earth would pass before one jot or tittle passed from the law, are you saying that when he died, that was heaven and earth passing? Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Mat 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. I don't know about you, but I think that being called least isn't a good thing. Or are you saying he wouldn't destroy them as long as he was alive, but would destroy them at death. Still, heaven and earth are still here, so not the law and prophets? |

Dear Face, I always find it interesting how people will either neglect Galatians or James, depending on which side of the antinomian or Judaizer issue they happen to embrace. In either case, when it comes to the forum, they tend to be pretty mono-thematic in their posts. In the words of Charles Spurgeon, one cannot help wondering "Why do they earnestly set themselves to confute what no one defends?" Burning straw men is tiring work. So is beating dead horses. I think you've made your position pretty clear after some 20 plus posts on the subject. Shall we move along with our study of the Bible? It contains quite a few other subjects worthy of our careful consideration. In Him, Doc |

What's the purpose of studying the rest of it if we can't even get the basics right? Our Saviour and Messiah says one thing clearly. Later we believe somebody who appears to talk out of both sides of his mouth. Somebody is wrong. Who is it? Or is the second person, namely Paul, saying something other than what common churchianity is teaching? Who do you believe, the person who's word last forever, or a bunch of people who have been beating the wrong drum? |

You wrote, "Later we believe somebody who appears to talk out of both sides of his mouth. Somebody is wrong. Who is it? Or is the second person, namely Paul, saying something other than what common churchianity is teaching? Who do you believe, the person who's word last forever, or a bunch of people who have been beating the wrong drum?" And then there's the guy beating his own drum... to his own beat... without the support of anyone excepting, possibly, Ellen G. White and Garner Ted Armstrong. Another good Spurgeon quote: "It seems odd, that certain men who talk so much about what the Holy Spirit reveals to themselves, should think so little of what He has revealed to others." Frankly, does it matter so much whether it is the left side of the ditch or the right side of the ditch into which one has fallen? Now may we, please, move on? |

Very well, I'll hold my peace on this subject. But I just don't understand why people throw away the base of what all has built on. |
