Gal 3:23, But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
Gal 3:24, Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
Gal 3:25, But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.


These scriptures are saying that if we now have faith, that there was a time when we were kept under the law.

Now, do Gentiles have faith?

If they do, then there was a time when they were kept under the law.

Bottom line.
You were under the Law? When?

The law is to be preached to those who are under it; in order that they might stop putting their trust in the law and come out from under the law into faith in Christ.

When a person comes to faith in Christ, he does not become disobedient (Titus 3:3-7, esp. v.3).
So you preach executing gays as Moses COMMANDED?

You changed my quotation of scripture to emphasize something that I didn't emphasize. I would appreciate it if you wouldn't do that (it is almost possibly a rule violation).

What did I change?

The law of Moses will condemn those "gays" who do not take advantage of what it says in 1 Corinthians 6:11 to the lake of fire.

In the NT, the teaching is that we do not presume to judge for the most part. So I will leave that judgment up to Christ.

You don't keep the Law of Moses and you never did! Stick with the New Covenant not the "obsolete" covenant.

I didn't change anything. I emphasized what YOU said. You're getting desperate. Stop preaching the Law to Christians!
I obey the spirit of the law (Romans 7:6, Romans 8:4).

Not every Christian is on their way to heaven (Matthew 7:21-23); so it becomes necessary to preach the law to them in order that the schoolmaster might lead them to Christ.

Jhn 8:43, Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

Yeah, you preach the Law that YOU don't obey! Hypocrisy!

Why do we need jutification if we have no sin (no law) why?
What do you need Jesus to Justify you from sin? don't avoid the question.
Because unless you have been justified by accepting the substitutionary atonement of Christ, you are dead in your sins. That's why.

Once we have received Christ's atonement, we are in a legal position to be born again of the Spirit.
The law of God is eternal, and like Him, it does not change!
