Subject: Must Christians keep the Sabbath today? |
Bible Note: Tuggy, You ask "Do you believe in the fall of angels and human beings for breaking God's commandments?" Not if they're saved. Your argument seems to intimate that nobody is really saved until the end when you state "But we can win at the judgment of the living just before Christ’s return." Am I correct to assume this? As I see scripture, we've ALL been judged guilty before God (Rom. 3:19-23). In brief, the entire argument of Romans 1-3 is we are sinners and guilty before God. Justification has been provided in Rom. 4. Salvation accomplished in Rom. 5. I have been convicted, judged, and sentence pronounced in Romans. Christ died in my place! My position of sin has been replaced with His of righteousness ( 1 Cor. 1:30) Could you possibly clarify your statement by scripture that "Satan’s “life insurance” depends on Christ’s inability to have a commandment-keeping church at the judgment of the living." My friend, God is able!( Luke 3:8, Heb.2:18,7:25, 11:19) There is simply no such thing as Christ's "inability". We have been judged! Judgement predominately is future for the unbeliever (Rev. 20). There is a very specific sense that we'll be judged based upon our walk- not with regard to salvation- but reward (1 Cor. 3:10-15). I would have to call into question your choice of words in saying that "Christ can plead progress, but in the judgment of the living, He has a problem:" The "problem" is one of sinful mankind, not of a sovereign, loving, merciful God dependent on His creation to perform! Any performance, was accomplished on the cross, when Jesus said, "It is finished!" (John 19:30). Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |
