These posts on cc has explored Jesus without the law endlessly. Many say it works fine. Scripture tells us the law shows us our need for Jesus.

Now lets explore how the law works without Jesus. That should tell us if God wants us to add the law to Jesus.

It was given as a sort of constitution for the new country for Joshua to start. They didn’t follow it very well, but still it created a world of safety where even babies were killed in other places.

I don’t know anyone trying to keep law, so I used books to explore this. Liz Harris reports on how Hasidic Jews live, and says it makes for a good life. I went to history to find these laws were what kept the Jewish population in the middle ages functioning, and also leading the Christian communities in devotion to God when there was little.

We have scripture after scripture telling us the law is good, the law is holy, and telling us to obey. We know all scripture points to the same truth, yet poster after poster uses verses to tell us not to listen to law. If the law was given by God, if what is given by God is spiritual truth, how could it be that spiritual truth could say that spiritual truth is wrong?
The Old Covenant is truth. The New Covenant is truth. But, the NC has replaced the OC. If you read Hebrews 7 and 8, you will find your answers. And Galatians pretty much tells it all.

If you are determined that your religious sect is correct, and not be open to what the Holy Spirit is saying in those books, then you will never understand.

Here are a couple of verses that helped me understand:

"But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones (the Ten Commandments), was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away, how will the ministry of the Spirit (Jesus' blood shed for us) not be more glorious?" 2 Cor. 3.

"You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law, you have fallen from grace." Gal. 5. ("Fallen from grace" does not mean have become 'unsaved.')

Praise Him.:)

lol alot of stubborn people here it's ridiculous, deep down they know the truth but the pride won't let them admit it, your only doing yourself wrong no one else, actually your also doing this to the young peope and you all will be judged for it, know how many young people are trap in this adventist thing, i believe with all of their heart because they obsorb this day they are all going to heaven once they do no wrong on that day they are good and they have no idea what it feels to be born again, honestly shame on all of you that continously carrying on this nonsense... your not only affecting yourselves but others too.. if you wanna carry yourself down do it yourself but don't go spreading it.. so others can do the same after, instead of preaching the holy spirit and receive salvation to the young people all you do is telling them to be self righteous, i'm upset over this because i got so many friends caught up in it and they won't listen to me if i talk to them, neither will they understand what the holy spirit is, and the only way anyone can come to salvation is by letting go their own understand and letting God in.

[h=3]Hebrews 6[/h]King James Version (KJV)

6 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3 And this will we do, if God permit.
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.


this generation is guilty.. of crucifying christ again unto themselves, you witness the supernatural power of christ but still run back to your creed and ignoring the holy spirit, putting God to an open shame...

bible said surrender to the cross daily, not surrender to law daily that means you all wanna be righteous yourselves instead of letting God make you righteous through his spirit, the bible even said the law was weak to the flesh that is why God came, but yet people putting law infront of God

no one is against anything the righteousness of the law is fulfilled through the spirit of christ, so when we receive God we live righteously, since love fulfills the entire law we live by the spiritual love of christ, which does not ill treat their neighbor
Josh,

Love does fulfill the righteousness of the Law and bless you for saying that....Yet, some still believe that their righteousness is through the works of their flesh.

I remember when Mother Theresa died and people said that she went to Heaven because she done so many good things.

Then I look at another person who did deeds because he loved and not because he sought his righteousness through fleshly obedience, but spiritual obedience. I notice people accursed him, even called him a worker of Satan. But, through love he forgave and required not the hammer of the Law to be thrown at them, as the Law requires of false accusers.

It is amazing how the Law requires certain actions to be carried out, even in instances of false accusers and if a person does not comply with the whole Law, then that one is a transgressor of the Law. But notice how the above person did not carry out the whole Law, and yet can it be said of him that he is a transgressor of the Law, although all which he did was in agreement to God's will (namely, love), even death upon the Cross?

What confuses me is why would I want to take glory from God. If I control my salvation by works and obedience, what does God do?
if my salvation is by God's grace! And my works and obedience are done out of love for God, then God has all the glory and I am simply a servant.

By God's grace alone I am saved.

i'm honestly upset about it bro, i mean i got so many friends when i think about, they don't know God all they know is law they have no idea about the holy spirit because they grew up in the 10 commandment thing throughout their life, it makes me sad when i think about it... sometimes i just wanna take a bible and show them the truth but then i realize the bibe is a complete mystery to those without the holy spirit so it wouldnt make sense i sometimes go to the church services though to see what happens and all i was hearing was the pastor saying that God is gonna come for us those who kept his sabbath and the other commandments, it's demons vs demons.. with these creeds then i also go to a pentacostal church and all i hear there is when God comes for us we are the right denominations etc etc, my soul is aching though there isn't many true born again churches out there, God send the holy spirit he never said to make denominations

Hebrews 6:6 "If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put Him to an open shame."

If all , you teach is salvation and baptism when all, that group being taught has already; accepted Christ and tasted of the Word and has been saved once,
That means, putting our Lord's sacrifice to shame. When you have some "man of God" get up in-front of that group and all he teaches is salvation and baptism; that is blasphemy. Why ? If there is one unsaved person there, then it is okay, but not when it is known that every individual has accepted Christ, and been baptized.

Why? Christ does the saving, and after one is saved, all it takes , Is repentance.

Man will always mess up in a flesh body, and he will also need repent to the Father in Jesus name after he has sinned, because we all fall short.

The freedom that we have in Christ is to be able to repent as our sins come to our attention, and not be tied to the guilt of those sins.

That is what the passage means. It's not talking against repentance, that makes No sense since, it is written ; Repent :


Acts 2:38

King James Version (KJV)

38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Mark 1:1-4

Acts 10:43

King James Version (KJV)

43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

We should not mistaken God's words and instruction as a work. It is His words.

exactly..! amen to this, it's just people would do no matter what, they wanna do extras why? i don't know but God only accepts one thing all other extras is in vain, look at cain and abel, you know now that i think about and look at it, it's the same spirit that passes down throughout the generations, because God said Love fulfils the law, that is like the offering that abel gave to God but yet to some people this isn't enough to must search and find more to give God, but look what happen to cain God didn't accept his offering God only sticks to the true thing no extras.

faith without works is DEAD
spiritually dead
the holy spirit is the one given to them who obey
the false spirit is loud, obnoxious, jabers, loves self aggrandizing rock and roll and shows off

the true spirit is all power, peace love
and it is alive
it is only given to those who obey

My bible says those who OBEY GOD live
the ones who disobey ALWAYS GET PUNISHED

genesis to revelation
the disobedient to Gods law
Perish

Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that break the commandments.

actually... no, i'll explain

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

ok those are the key words to look at, they were enlightened experienced something extra ordinary the holy spirit was reveal to them, they tasted the heavenly gift, they never received it they had a glimpse of the power of the holy spirit, they were partakers, once again they never received it they were among the presence of the holy ghost so they were made partakers of it

5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,

they were among the supernatural presence of the holy spirit and they notice the powers of the spirit that will be in the world to come, but guess what did they come to true repentance after witnessing this presence and being among this presence? lets see what they did

6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

despite seeing and being in this holy presence of the holy spirit, they still fall away and run back to their man made creed and for that it is
impossible for those who have done this to come to repentance

FAITH commeth by hearing the word of God

that is a dfinition

hearing the word of God without DOING it is death

Faith without doing anything about it will kill you

If your car manual tells you to change your oil every 4000 miles
and you really really believe it
but never do it
your car is dead...
it will be dead.

you have to HEAR the word

in original Aramaic to hear means to HEAR AND DO the word

those who hear only

are dead

Rom 2:13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

this is
CLEAR (clear) (clear)
(clear) (clear) (clear) (clear) (clear) (clear) (clear) echo echo echo

that means you can go to Jesus and be forgiven but if you have no intention of changing you arent even justified!

James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.


so
anyone who says the law is nailed to a tree is saying

righteousness (the law psalm 119:172) is nailed to a tree
correct living is nailed to a tree
giving up alcohol is nailed to a tree
overcoming sexual perversions is nailed to a tree
victorious christian living is nailed to a tree

porr decieved children, the devil has them
pray for the deluded souls

Hello to all my brothers and sisters in Christ :) God bless you all and peace be unto :) Okay so I have been looking at this thread and one other pertaining to this very topic, which seems to be about The Law(Ten Commandments), and from my brief overview it seems to be two mind sets, one agreeing that the Moral Law aka Ten commandments are still set in place, meaning God wants us to obey them, and on the other hand, or other mind set, the Law, that is the Moral law, is done away with and we are freed in Christ. Is this correct? and if so it is a simple way to have a conclusion among the confusion, Gods Word :) because it is truth! amen to that, so what I would propose is that Each persons from each mind set present evidence based upon the word of God and we all come together collectively guided by the Spirit of truth to see what thus saith the Lord, I only speak because I would like to learn and grow as a christian but when we all are not on one accord we cannot walk together :(

ok good plan

is your web site big enough?

(Psa 1:2 KJV) But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.


(Psa 19:7 KJV) The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.


(Psa 37:31 KJV) The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.


(Psa 40:8 KJV) I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.


(Psa 78:1 KJV) Maschil of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.


(Psa 78:5 KJV) For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:


(Psa 78:10 KJV) They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;


(Psa 81:4 KJV) For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.


(Psa 89:30 KJV) If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;


(Psa 94:12 KJV) Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;


(Psa 94:20 KJV) Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?


(Psa 105:10 KJV) And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:


(Psa 119:1 KJV) ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.


(Psa 119:18 KJV) Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.


(Psa 119:29 KJV) Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.


(Psa 119:34 KJV) Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.


(Psa 119:44 KJV) So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.


(Psa 119:51 KJV) The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from thy law.


(Psa 119:53 KJV) Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy law.


(Psa 119:55 KJV) I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy law.


(Psa 119:61 KJV) The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.


(Psa 119:70 KJV) Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.


(Psa 119:72 KJV) The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.


(Psa 119:77 KJV) Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.


(Psa 119:85 KJV) The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.


(Psa 119:92 KJV) Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.


(Psa 119:97 KJV) MEM. O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.


(Psa 119:109 KJV) My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.


(Psa 119:113 KJV) SAMECH. I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love.


(Psa 119:126 KJV) It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law.


(Psa 119:136 KJV) Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.


(Psa 119:142 KJV) Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.


(Psa 119:150 KJV) They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law.


(Psa 119:153 KJV) RESH. Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.


(Psa 119:163 KJV) I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.


(Psa 119:165 KJV) Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.


(Psa 119:174 KJV) I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight.

Hello Sideburns,

It is more about obedience through our flesh vs. obedience through our spirit. That is, from where does our righteousness come from?
