Just wondering here..........does "knowing" automatically equate to "doing?" Are there some that "know" but do not "do?" If so, what about them? Have they kept the Commandments of Jesus?
Can you define for me what the Commandments of Jesus are?
Again, just wondering............so as to not add to confusion

The Bible tells everybody how to live and how to please God. Why do you leave the Bible out?
A legalist is a person who tries to justify themselves by proving to themselves or to others that they are good enough that they don't deserve to burn in Hell. We all deserve to burn in Hell, but because God loves us He sent a Saviour to buy us back from what we bought for ourselves.

No read this and tell me what you think it means...then maybe I can see where your at in your understanding?
Ro 7:6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
Obedience is not to the written code of Moses...it is faith and love in Jesus Christ....and in love all the law is fulfilled ....ok
Its called the simplicity of Christ.

The role of conviction of sin belongs to the Holy Spirit and we are not to take it upon ourselves.
There are some thoughts and actiones that God has clearly labled wrong; and if a professing believer persists in them, it is grounds for breaking fellowship until (s)he repents.
any thought or act on which there is NOT consensus among believers that it is wrong is not among them.
The only thing worse than not acting on your convictions is imposing them on someone else.
It is not a believer's role to determine where anyone will spend eternity.

Lets see...this is a good standard
to make replete, i.e. (literally) to cram (a net), level up (a hollow), or (figuratively) to furnish (or imbue, diffuse, influence), satisfy, execute (an office), finish (a period or task), verify (or coincide with a prediction), etc.:--accomplish, X after, (be) complete, end, expire, fill (up), fulfil, (be, make) full (come), fully preach, perfect, supply.

Again "Law," without dealing with my question Brother. The Commandments of Jesus (see posted list). Are, we the church today. to keep the Commandments of Jesus? I would think this is very important to know....well, for me anyway.

You are neglecting the multitude of passages in the New as well as the Old Testament which tell us how to live and how to please God.
But as he which has called you is holy, so be you holy in all manner of conversation (1 Pet. 1:15)
this is only one summary verse of the many passages in the Bible, New Testament as well as old, which tell God's people how to live and how to please God. "All manner of conversation" covers everything including the way you dress which sends a message, the music you listen to which leads your emotions, the way you talk, the places you go, everything. Legalism is trying to justify yourself to prove you are better than another person so you don't deserve to burn in Hell. We all deserve to burn in Hell, and if you think you deserve Hell less than me because you are being a better person or a better Christian, you are being legalistic while you may be pretending to be spritual giving yourself a license for unholy passages of your time.

James I believe said for him to know to do right and not to do it to him it is sin.
The old man knew sin and he did it without a list. Does the new man know righteousness? You will serve your master. Either you will serve the diabolical one or you will serve Christ. Who is your master? Is it possible not to know your master?
For the cause of Christ
