1 | ... | Eph 2:15 | Nevvvvine | 211189 | ||
Hi ovadyah: The simplest answer to that question is. Jesus abolished in His flesh,the Law. (By fulfilling the Law.) So we who believe in Jesus as Savior, both Jew, and Gentile, in him we both become righteous, as though we have fulfilled the law ourselves. Thereby establishing peace with God in His flesh. As far as the Law is concerned. It still exists, in particular to those that want to live by the Law.(the Jews) But as for us, who are of the household of Faith, we have been set free from the curse of the Law in our lives. Galatians 3:10 10) For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. Galatians 3:13 13) Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: Jesus taught us: Matt. 22:36-40 36) Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37) Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38) This is the first and great commandment. 39) And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40) On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Mark 12:30,31 30) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. 31) And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. Luke 10:27,28 27) And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. 28) And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. If we keep the 1st.,and 2nd. commandments, we will keep all of them. For Love worketh no ill to our neighbour. In Jesus Love Nevvvvine |

Hello ovadyah, Friend, you are building a case from pretext based on your foregone conclusion. You summarize academicians as matter-of-fact, without giving us the benefit of knowing what they actually said. You cite the pre-fulfillment words of the prophets and Christ as applicable to to post-fulfillment without accounting for context or audience. Finally, Paul's epistle to the Galatians puts the whole matter to rest. The Law could not justify and cannot sanctify. We rest on the finished work of Christ. Steve |

Hello ovadyah, OK, you're doing it again, so let's cut to the heart of the matter. Christ is the fulfillment of the Law. (You have already agreed to this.) If he is the fulfillment, what is the point of keeping it except what has been explicitly directed to Christians in the epistles? Note that Paul was rather specific about what he wrote. How much of the Law is to be kept? Gentiles are not expected to live like Jews (see Galatians 2:11-14; Acts 15). What is your personal purpose for desiring to keep the Law? You have already said that it is not necessary for justification or sanctification. Are you doing it just because you can? Steve |

Hello Ovadyah, We cannot communicate. Your first sentence is an agreement to something I never said. You add meaning to my references that is simply not there. There is no point in continuing. Steve |

Hello Ovadyah, I did not say that I did not believe your statement. I said that you agreed to something I never said. The references I referred to were the Scripture passages to which you add a Pharisaic reference which Paul did not bring up. Steve |
