1 | Why did God give ten commandments? | Heb 8:13 | Reighnskye | 135458 | ||
Tim, Here are two scripture units where Jesus enforces the Law of Moses. Perhaps the account of the woman caught in adultery was an isolated incident: Matthew 25 31 "But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. 32 "All the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; 33 and He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on the left. 34 "Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 'For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; 36 naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.' 37 "Then the righteous will answer Him, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? 38 'And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 39 'When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?' 40 "The King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.' 41 "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; 42 for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; 43 I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.' 44 "Then they themselves also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?' 45 "Then He will answer them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.' 46 "These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life." (NAS95) Revelation 19 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war. 12 His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. 13 He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses. 15 From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. 16 And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS."

Greetings Reighnskye! Where do these passage say anything about the Law of Moses? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

3 | Why did God give ten commandments? | Heb 8:13 | Reighnskye | 135463 | ||
Tim, You ask: "Where do these passage say anything about the Law of Moses?" Well, what other law might they be referring to, other than the Law of Moses? There's a judgment seat and blood and eternal condemnation and all that. Is there some other law that comes to mind? - Blessings, Reighnskye |

4 | Why did God give ten commandments? | Heb 8:13 | Morant61 | 135473 | ||
Greetings Reighnskye! I am a real stickler when it comes to statements made about what the Bible 'says'. Thus, if you state that these passage are evidence of others being judged based upon the covenant with Israel, then the passage must actually say that somewhere! :-) Otherwise, it is just speculation. All we know from these passages is that God told Israel to destroy certain nations. The basis of His decision is not mentioned in these two passages. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Tim, You stated: 1. "I am a real stickler when it comes to statements made about what the Bible 'says'. Thus, if you state that these passage are evidence of others being judged based upon the covenant with Israel, then the passage must actually say that somewhere! :-)" Uumm....I never ever stated anything about a covenant. You are the one who brought up "covenant", not I. You seem to be putting words in my mouth. How are you relating covenant with the Law of Moses? Since when does the enforcement of the Law of Moses mandate covenant? 2. "Otherwise, it is just speculation. All we know from these passages is that God told Israel to destroy certain nations. The basis of His decision is not mentioned in these two passages." However, if we take a look at the greater context of scripture, the basis of His decision can be found earlier on. Here is the original basis for God's destruction of ungodly nations. Genesis 12 1 Now the LORD said to Abram, "Go forth from your country, And from your relatives And from your father's house, To the land which I will show you; 2 And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing; 3 And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse. And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed." (NAS95) And here is Christ's divine rulership over the nation of Israel. Matthew 19 27 Then Peter said to Him, "Behold, we have left everything and followed You; what then will there be for us?" 28 And Jesus said to them, "Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on His glorious throne, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 "And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms for My name's sake, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life. (NAS95) And here is Christ again in that same judgment seat. Matthew 25 31 "But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. 32 "All the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; 33 and He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on the left. (NAS95) - Blessings, Reighnskye |

Greetings Reighnskye! Sorry about that, I got mixed up on the posts. On one of your posts you were talking about the Law of Moses and on the other one you were talking about the convenant being enforced on those who were not a party to it. :-) Gen. 12 shows that nations were judged based upon their treatment of Israel, not because they were having the covenant enforced upon them nor because they were violating the Law of Moses. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Tim, It's easy to get mixed up on who posts what where and when. LOLOL. I've already lost the train of thought here, unfortunately. So I find it difficult to discern what you're saying/asking, and therefore difficult to answer. I'm lost in outer space now. - Blessings, Reighnskye |
