Bible Note: Hi Beja My addendum to your post, is only for the purpose of placing a scripture, with your most eloquent dialog. The two following scriptures, clearly demonstrate the teaching of Jesus, on our obligation to be keeping the moral law, as per your statements. Brackets have been added Matt.19:17-19 17.) And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, (keep the commandments). 18.) He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, (Thou shalt do no murder), (Thou shalt not commit adultery), (Thou shalt not steal), (Thou shalt not bear false witness), 19.) (Honour thy father and thy mother): and, (Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself). Matt.22:37-40 37.) Jesus said unto him, (Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind). 38.) This is the first and great commandment. 39.) And the second is like unto it, (Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself). 40.) On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Vintage68 |
