How does the Christian Law put one in communion with God if not that it fulfills what He desires us to do as those who follow Him? And that is, to fulfill His Law through Love.
It puts you in communion with God because Christ is the core of the New Testament and that's what He came for: to restore us. He is the link between us and God.
Read what He says in Luke 22,20: "This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you."

The Law keepers do not recognize the Council of Jerusalem (recorder in the book of Acts). Why this satanic stubbornness?
Funny, I follow the Law AND recognize and believe in that council.

Just sto as God desired to be.

Living by the Spirit has nothing to do with observing sabbath,special days and months, and seasons and years!

galatians 5
explain it simply to the point.

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Galatians 5:13-14

For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."


God Bless

sorry for using big letters .


I disagree. The Holy Spirit leads me through the Biblical Feasts. In fact, 3 of them are coming up and the Spirit is alive and we'll in me and in my celebration of them.

Romans 14:5-6 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

Colossians 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days.

Colossians 2:6-8 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

Galatians 2:4-5 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: to whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

Galatians 4:9-11 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
And all of those verses are great and full of truth.....

as as long as you don't keep a Saturday Sabbath or the Feast Days, or eat kosher.;)

I keep God's Sabbath. Why you say I don't? Only I don't keep it on Saturday (which is the day jews kept Sabbath as a reminder of how God helped them out of the Egyptian slavery), but on Sunday (which is the day Christ defeated death and sin and gives eternal life to whoever believes in Him and follow Him).
The Sabbath is the seventh day. It has NEVER been any other day and NEVER can be. In over one hundred languages, the word for the seventh day of the week is a form of Sabbath.

Oh and who gave the Law? The One who became Jesus Christ...

Joh 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

So when Christ gave the Law to Israel, that wasn't really His Law? Christ was not the One who dealt with Israel?

1Co 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
1Co 10:2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
1Co 10:3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
1Co 10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

Hmmm, and yet we read this...

1Jn 5:2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
1Jn 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

So if I am a Law keeper and you are not, you must be a Law breaker. Or Lawless...

And law-breakers are considered least in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Those who keep the Law?
The greatest.

There are Jewish Christians and there are gentile Christians and Paul said they are made one in Christ.
So must Jewish Christians eat the unclean and break the Sabbath to show their faith in Christ?

Or maybe you are still under the curse (Galatians 3:10-14) and that's why you reject Christ and keep the old law (who is more than the ten commandments, btw).

...the seventh day doesn't have any name in Genesis, does it?
Technically Genesis is not written in English so nitpicking on words is besides the point.
And technically Exodus 20:8 tied the Sabbath with the seventh day of the creation in Genesis.

NO, EMPHATICALLY NO! This is a blatant disregard for scripture...

Exo 20:10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

Deu 5:14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.

There is no symbolism here, just a straightforward statement of fact.

Why did God bless sanctify and made the 7th day Holy and not the first day 2nd day etc ?
