1 | Same question | John 1:1 | Robbert | 211799 | ||
Thanks Tim. Well, I guess I'm not explaining myself very well. The comment came up on paltalk that until Christ actually died the New Covenant wasn't in effect. One implication of this statement is that the gospels are not part of the NT in some sense since Christ had not yet died when the content of the gospels took place. If true, then the gospels are more like transitional books between the OT and the NT than they are NT books (although they were written after Christ's death their content took place during the time of Christ). I wondered what the panel thought. | ||||||
2 | Same question | John 1:1 | Robbert | 211794 | ||
I've been on this question because I haven't received an answer that bears directly on it. I have done study in Hebrews but still find this verse perplexing--at least from my perspective. From your response it's obvious that the panel cannot answer this question either, since you put it back on me. | ||||||
3 | Does Jesus teach OT doctrine? | John 1:1 | Robbert | 211559 | ||
Thanks Doc. The pastor I mentioned I hear on Paltalk, and he is a midacts dispensationalist who I think has very odd notions. To clarify his point, he states that salvation is only possible today by believing in the death and resurrection of Jesus. That's something that couldn't be done in the gospels since Jesus hadn't yet died. One could know about Jesus' divine nature, etc. as you state, but could not believe on Him for the forgiveness of sins. Paul alone provides that information. I'd appreciate any further help on understanding this issue. | ||||||
4 | Does Jesus teach OT doctrine? | John 1:1 | Robbert | 211558 | ||
Thanks John for your thoughts. Did you notice that all the scripture you cited was not found in the gospels! That's the pastor's point--althogh the gospels mention Jesus' upcoming death, you can only find the death and resurrection message of salvation for the forgiveness of sins in Paul. | ||||||
