Recognize the progress of revelation Leslie N: You raise a good point when you write: "Does a latter command rule out an earlier one. Jesus Christ said don't preach to the Gentiles, then to Paul, He said yes." Matthew 10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. God had the authority to add or even change in one era what He had given in another. What God revealed as binding in one period may be rescinded in another, not by man but by God Himself. "Recognize the progress of revelation. Remember that the Bible was not handed down all at once as a complete book but that it came from God through many different writers over a period of about 1,600 years. This means that in the progress of revealing His message to man, God may add or even change in one era what He had given in another. "The New Testament adds much that was not revealed in the Old. Furthermore, what God revealed as binding in one period may be rescinded in another...This is most important; otherwise, the Bible would contain apparently unresolvable contradictions (as Matt 10:5-7 compared with 28:18-20)" (Ryrie Study Bible, Moody, 1978).

thamks Kalos, I was pointing out that God's command through Paul was a latter one than the one's in the 4 main gospels. The allowances given by Jesus Christ was not they directed to the Jews and based on the Jewish Law? As christians, if some one hurts us we have to forgive. if our behaviour is not in accordance with God's will (as revealed through the Gospel) are not we supposed to repent. On repentance, I have this on my fridge, I don't know who wrote it, it was not me- Repentance is not just feeling sorry about your sin but to change your way of thinking and acting. You must learn to take your every thought captive and make them obedient to Christ. So since we have to forgive, repent and obey what grounds for divorce then exists. The woman who was divorced, I am not judging you, and you have done nothing that you have to give an explanation for (to me or to any other christian really). I had sex with my wife before we were married that's between me and GOD. I put that in there to show we are all alike in one way, but in another way we are all alike too (God's forgiveness) |
