Suede, Legalism is a form of fetishism, but the OT faith-giants were as non-legalistic as you could get. I think of David eating the "shewbread" (1 Sam 21.6) as cited also by Jesus (Matt 12.4), in His idictment of Pharisitic legalism. For David the Moral Law (not the Levitical laws) was "...a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path." (Psalm 119:105) Colin |

colin, "...the OT faith-giants were as non-legalistic as you could get." They sure were. "I think of David eating the "shewbread" (1 Sam 21.6) as cited also by Jesus (Matt 12.4), in His idictment of Pharisitic legalism." Yes, excellent, aside from Jesus out right scolding of them. "For David the Moral Law (not the Levitical laws) was "...a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path." (Psalm 119:105)" Yes, Moral is fine, Levitical law, no. Take care, SUEDE |

Colin, No, and certianly not Paul. Christians are to keep these moral laws, but we are humans, sinners by nature and many will slip. Are they unsaved? No. Is God's grace so weak that he can not save a murderer, or a adulteress? SUEDE |

Suede, God's grace saves, you bet (it saved Saul of Tarsus); but would Paul, James, John or Peter say that a lying, thieving, murderous Christian can enter heaven unrepentant? Colin |

Colin, Well, they certianly wouldn't recommend it! But chances are we will all die with unrepentanted sins. God knows though. We in no way can limit God's grace. Take care, SUEDE |
