Bible Question (short): Raven, do you want ALL the Law? |
Question (full): Raven, Yes, this subject is about marriage and divorce. And you are going to the Law alone as your standard for discussing this subject. Have you even read the verses in 1 Corinthians 7 concerning this subject? What did you think of this passage? The bottom line is the Law is the Law, whether for salvation, redemption, sanctification, justification, daily living, etc. If you are going to be under the Law for ANY purposes, then you must be under ALL of it. You are either under ALL the Law (including it's sacrificial system with animal sacrifice) or you are under grace with NONE of the Law. The just (who are now are in Christ - justified) shall live by FAITH, not Law. The Law is not of faith, it is of performance, and the believer is no longer bound by it. That is what I am talking about. And it is VERY relevant to marriage and divorce. The Law says that adulterers must be stoned (both parties). This doesn't meet that they need to get high first :), it means they must both die. Do you suggest we follow the Law? So if you wish to teach believers to be under the Law, then you yourself need to be under ALL of it. ChristLifer2001 |
