Bible Question: Greetings, I agree with part of what you are saying but how do you know that we were released from the 10 percent? We were not released from all of the rules and regulation of the OT. For example the 10 commandments. Those were rules of the OT and we have definetly not been released from them. Where do you draw the line? prayon |
Bible Answer: Prayon, Do you mean we are not release from the law of Moses? I think it is not right when you mentioned we were released. Becuase until now of course when you observed the two great commandments whic is given by Jesus Christ you also observed all things in the ten commandments. But my question to you now is, do you really observed them as Jew people doing it, or you observing it like what Jesus Christ taught us? Questions: 1. Do you not do any work on sabbath day? 2. Do you really not eat pork and other meat or food that Jewish people not eat.? 3. If you see other people do work on sabbath day did you kill them or stoned them to death? Because according to law do any work on sabbath day, is punishable by death. If your answer is no! then you have been free from the law of moses which is include tithe. Just show me my friend, that tithe is not included in the law of Moses and we will agree. Jesus Christ observed the ten commandments different from the teaching of Moses,Jesus Christ do a lot of work on Sabbath day. and it punisable by death. Lu 4:31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days. Lu 6:1 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands. Lu 6:2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days? When Jesus Christ do this things He free us from that law. Or you will say that Jesus Christ not observe the law? In addition my friend, (I hope we belong to same belived which is Christianity, I could be mistaken if one of us will belong to Jewish)i will put some passages here. Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Heb 8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. It was mentioned there on that passages The lord make a new covenant "Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers" do you think tithe or ten commandment are not included in that first covenant? If your answer is NO! then show me that they exclude tithe and ten commandments when they mentioned that. I hope I will not offended you in my kind of questions Thanks Johnny |
