The Law is written on stones given by Moses. You know what it says.
Yes that's my Point THE LAW is pertianing to the The law of Moses, NOT ALL laws in general. You are saying we have no Law at all under the NT, becuase you are twisting the meaning of the passages that ONLY apply to the taking away of the law of Moses.
We have many Laws under the NT.
If we choose to walk after the flesh we don't love God.
Would you say that is a law concerning how we love God in the NT?
Matthew 5:21-22
21 Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
This is what Jesus Christ was doing here. He was magnifying God's Law. He was showing you the bar of perfection according to the Law is a lot higher than what was understood.
Matthew 5:27-28
27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
THese passages only further prove my point. Jesus here is giving NEW laws under the NEW Covanant making the OT obselte when it comes to laws.
"BUT I SAY UNTO" is the introduction of the new law we are to abide under.
You are wrong about that. People are ashamed and not able to come before God easily because they know in their hearts that they have broken His Law. No one bypasses God's Law.
What you said here does not have anyting to do with what I said. I said the law of Moses was a tutor for the JEWS to being them unto Christ.
It is not a schoolmaster for me and you to bring us to Chrsit. We have the NT, we do not have to serve the shadow to bring us to the true image, we can go strait to the true image - Chrsit.
You use these passages to teach that ALL law in gerneral are only tutuors, and that is not what is being said.
You have been showing passages that prove the law of Moses has been taken away and PRETENDING you dont understand them, and pretend they mean we have no laws at all.
Then you turn around and show me passages PROVING we do have laws. Are you purposely trying to be confusing?
Christians are not under the Law. Christians follow after Christ and He produces fruit in their lives, against which there is no law.
Agreed. We are not under "the law". When have I said we need to go back to the law of Moses?
This is another circular reasoning method your using to prove what you cant.
Does the "the law" mean the law of Moses, or ALL laws/commands even in the NT?
Galatians 3:23-25
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
Yes, why do you keep posting these passages KNOWING that we are not talking about IF we are or are not still under the LAW OF MOSES?
I agree we are not.
I dont agree that means we do not have any laws at all under the NT.
Seeing how you did not answer the questions I asked, you also know we do have laws.
But you want to pretend like you dont get it, and always go back to proving we are not under the law of Moses. This is the best example of a STRAW MAN ARGUMENT
HERE THEY ARE AGAIN IN CASE YOU MUST MISSED THEM
1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication
According to these passages:
1. Is I Thess 4:1-3 written to Christians?
2. Are the commands that they received from the Lord laws?
3. Is them doing the will of God by abstaining from fornication a law against fornication for the Christian?
4. Are these passage only intended for those who have not accepted Christ?
