Subject: need information on galatians Chapter 6 |
Bible Note: Original Question was I need information on Galatians Chapter 6:1-8. It has to do with the falling away. I await your response. Maybe you can direct me to a place. My Answer was: When Christ came the first time and brought in the new covenant the message was proclaimed to all the people. There were many responses to His message. Some embraced the message but when persecution started they decided maybe it wasn't what they wanted. Some wanted to mix the priesthood of the old covenant with the new covenant. This was not proper. The Apostle Paul explains in several of his letters why. It was especially hard for those in positions of leadership, the priesthood, to give up their exalted positions. Their influence caused an uproar in some of the cities Paul visited. They would follow him around and cause trouble. Some who seemed to receive the message went back to the old covenant maybe to please their peers and the priests. A study of faith and hearts might help you understand this topic. A study of the priesthood, Leviticus, a study of Hebrews, the new covenant compared to the old covenant, a study of Acts, the history of the church, and Paul's epistles, shows this controversy. Blessings - Val Your response to my answer was: Miss Val: I am looking in your teaching you are saying many of things I am not fully understanding from you. I am listing your question/comments and following each one is my answer. Question 1) This new covenant message is salvation is it not. Answer: Yes, Read the letter to the Hebrews. Mark covenant in one color when it is in reference to the Old Covenant and Mark covenant in a different color when it is reference to the New Covenant. Also mark any synonyms. After you have made these markings, make two columns with one side writing the verses in reference to the Old Covenant and side two with the verses in reference to the New covenant. After you have completed this make an additional column showing how Christ is better than the Old Covenant. Question 2) When Jesus proclaimed the covenant message to all the people did he do it in telling them he was the savior. Answer – Yes Question 3) you then teach the responses of the people to his message were many does not the bible say his message from his beginning was The Kingdom is at hand? Answer – Yes Question 4) Also all of his teachings on the parables is this what you are teaching on when you say some believed what he was saying then when the persecutions started then they stopped following is that not the parable about the one sowing? Answer – I don’t know. Comment 5) I am not finding in my reading where you are saying the priesthood is causing the problems as you say I think it is speaking of the devout Jews in the towns where Paul was going to do the teaching in. Answer – Read the letter to the Hebrews. Mark priest in one color and priest when it refers to Christ in a different color. Continue the assignment as in the answer to Question 1. Comment 6) Maybe I am not understanding clearly from you teaching maybe you are saying the ones in the authority of them was the other Apostles those were saying that the Gentiles would having to be circumcised and following the laws no eating of the blood of the animals and the things that are being chocked is those the ones you are saying about causing like you are saying some of the people to be falling away and going back because of the peers of them Answer: No I was talking about the priests/leaders under the old covenant. Question 7) Am I right in the way I am sending this to you? Answer – Yes I use the inductive study bible by Kay Arthur that can be purchased at this site. At the beginning of each book of the bible are questions to look for in the text that will help you to study the bible. There is no way I can teach you these things myself in this forum, however I can show you how to study to find the answers yourself and that is by directing you to this bible. That is why I included in my post to the original question the books of the bible that reference this topic. Leviticus, Hebrews, Acts, Paul’s epistles. Again, welcome to the forum. I hope I have answered your questions so far. Blessings – Mrs. Val |
