Bible Note: EdB If I might add: It seems to me that theology is for the theist or deist that believes there is a God but doesn’t know the Lord God, or believes God can not be known. As we know, religion is just a system of belief and not all systems of belief are a religion. The Tora is a system of belief, or even a trust, not a religion, nor a theology. Given by the Word of God, delivered by the hand of Moses to a people to come into agreement with the Lord God in. The Tora and the prophets is what is fulfilled in Christ, and therefore Christ is the interpretation thereof, that is acceptable before the Almighty. And if one thinks that what is known today about the gospel message wasn’t known then, I would disagree, read the last verses of Palm 17 and you can see that King David knew and understood more about what Jesus came into the world and did, then most who call themselves Christian. Its not what one calls himself, or chooses to agree with, it is what the Lord God calls you, and has given for you to be in agreement with Him in. Christianity has become like a grocery store, where there is a selection of theologies to chose from on the shelf, hence a God of their approval as they see God ought to be. When it was the Tora that was given by the Lord God. It is looking to Jesus Christ as the interpretation/fulfillment of the agreements between the Creator and Judge of all things, and mankind, that units the people of God. Not what men think about God. The knowledge and understanding, is revelation, that is of God. |
