E
My post's aren't pointing to you Billy,
They are pointing to the Elephant in the Room that no one wants to talk about.
There is a great religion that Jesus said would "Come in His Name" preaching that He is truly the Son of God, that will preach lies about God.
Matt. 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive(Tell lies to) you.5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.(Convince many to believe a lie)
This great religion was foretold in the Gospel of Christ, where the Righteousness of God and the Wrath of God are revealed. (Old Testament)
Jer. 23:16 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.
17 They say still unto them that despise me,(Transgress the Commandments of God by their own traditions) The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart,(Follow an image of God after the likeness of man) No evil shall come upon you.
1 Sam 15:22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
23For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
This is exactly what happened to the Mainstream Preachers of Paul's time.
They rejected God's Word and created their own. Jesus rejected them for this behavior.
Today we have a great "Christian" religion that transgresses the commandments of God by their own traditions.
Yes, they do it in Christ's Name as prophesied, but they do it just the same.
This great religion has created images of God after the likeness of man, created "Feasts unto the Lord" in worship to this God both are in direct rebellion to God's Words and instruction in the first and greatest commandment.
They teach God's Commandments, including His Sabbath, are not for the Christian, when Jesus specifically taught that the Sabbath was made for man.
They teach the New Covenant is the elimination of God's Instructions given in the Gospel of Christ as Paul calls it. But there is no evidence that the New Covenant had anything to do with re-defining sin.
Todays mainstream preachers teach that the mainstream church of Christ's time were trying to earn Salvation by keeping God's Laws. Paul refutes this teaching in the 2nd half of Romans 1 just for starters. There is nowhere in the Bible that preaches the Mainstream preachers of Christ's time were trying to earn Salvation by obeying God. Yet "many" preach this lie anyway.
Why, because they have been given over to their rebellious flesh to believe a lie.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Paul says the same thing in 2 Thes. 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
John 6:53 Then Jesus said unto them,
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
Do you believe these disciples that walked away became Atheists? Or did they start their own religion where it was not needful to "DO ANYTHING" for repentance?
Phil. 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
But nope, this scripture gets thrown out with the "Bring Works Worthy of repentance" teaching.
I could go on and on and on exposing man made doctrines and traditions with God's Word which is sharper that a two edged sword.
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The Word of God cut's through all the BS Billy. All of it. Even the lies we have sheltered in our own minds.
You can try and make the case that I omit scriptures on purpose, but it will not stick because it isn't true.
I am sorry if you are offended by these truths. I was offended years ago by the teachings of the Christ as well. Everybody is offended when they are told to "repent".
I want to talk about this Elephant in the Room because it tricks so many people into rejecting God's Words and accepting man's doctrines and traditions in the name of Jesus.
If this insults you then I say Good. Why does it insult you? Is it because MCC doesn't create images of God after the likeness of man? No, we both know that they do. Is it because the MCC didn't create High Days and their own Sabbaths? No, because we both know this is true. If you are insulted because you know these things are true, maybe you will "turn to God" and Hid Righteousness as Jesus instructs, and let HIM lead you to all truth.
Rom. 2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
We are all born into a religion that transgresses the Commandments of God by their traditions. Jesus was, Peter was, Caleb was, Abraham and Noah, even righteous Abel who was killed by his "Christian" brother Cain.
We all have to decide or as Paul says in his letter regarding the weak in faith, " be convinced in our own mind", whether to follow the Path Jesus walked as instructed which includes God's Righteous Commandments, or if we take the easy Path that everybody else is on and adhere to the traditions and doctrines of men.

Again I will ask. Who there is preaching that we can disobey Gods laws?
You seem to be preaching against imaginary people.
And again, What makes you think you are right.
Everyone transgresses the law. If we did not. One could say we would be sinless. So why do you insist on judging others. When you can not live up to the standard yourself?
