Sabbath

No, Adam sinned.


Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned— Romans 5:12

Malikb,

What i notice about heretics over the years, is that they are always found lost in some symbolic verse, not understanding that its symbolic,..... because the bible is CLOSED TO THEM....... as they """"wrest the scriptures to their own destruction"""".

You verse does not stay that Adam sinned.
It says that sin entered the world and death through sin.
So because of Adam's disobedience "sin entered the world"........
Yet, until the Law is given, transgression is not revealed.

Lucifer was Iniquity itself, yet, sin is not revealed until the Law, as .....>"where there is no law, there is no Transgression".

There was no law?


Then why did Adam’s sin, a violation of God’s law, spread to all men?

Romans 5:12 definitely says Adam sinned and his sin spread to all mankind.

Adam didn't violate an "law"....as there was no Law till Moses.

You can't read?

You verse does not say that Adam was a sinner.
It says that sin came into the world through Adam.

Yet, "sin" isn't defined as "sin" until the LAW defines it.

You verse does not stay that Adam sinned.
It says that sin entered the world and death through adam.
Adam's disobedience allowed Satan to become "god of this world".......and that is where the evil started, and from this situation..... God gave Moses the Law to define it, and show us what we are become as a result of Adam's FALL. = "sinners".
So because of Adam's disobedience "sin entered the world"........
Yet, until the Law is given, transgression is not revealed as sin.

Once the Law was revealed, then WE were revealed as sinful and sinners, "under the law".

Lucifer was Iniquity itself, yet, sin is not revealed until the Law, as .....>"where there is no law, there is no Transgression".

That's ironic, I find the same thing to those to those that prioritize Paul's writings over James, Peter, Mathew, John, Luke, etc.

You obviously can't Read...

For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous. Romans 5:19

Adam committed sin by eating of the tree that God forbid him to, and death resulted.

Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world,

MalikB,
What you said, shows a distinct lack of understanding regarding the NT.

Here are a few clues.. for you.

Paul said...>"be a follower of ME, as i follow Christ", ..........and no other Apostle told you to do that.
And that is not a suggestion. And when you then reply...>"i follow Jesus", then you are showing more ignorance of the NT.
So, realize that before you show it, again.

Paul wrote nearly all the New Testament.....

The "Gospel of the Grace of God", that is the "preaching of the Cross'".....is what Paul defined 3x as "my Gospel".

"Justification by Faith"....came from Paul's Epistles.

In 2nd Peter, ....Peter said of Paul's letters, that he was READING at the time....that they are equal to the TORAH. (Old Testament).
You will recall that at that time, there was no New Testament created. All the apostles had was the TORAH, that Jesus read from, as well.
That is an apostle,...the apostle Peter...... saying that the writings of Paul, the letters.....at that time.........Peter said they are EQUAL TO THE TORAH.
He was right.....as Paul's letters became MOST of the New Testament, and all of the Church Doctrine for the Body of Christ.

MalikB.......You are in the dark about all this, same as you are about the Law and Grace...... and apparently most things related to PAULINE THEOLOGY or this........... Romans 3:21-28

Yes, sin entered the world, as "disobedience", yet, it had entered the world in Satan, before Adam showed up.

So, the difference is, Adam was the first HUMAN, so, His disobedience, is what was later defined by Moses's Law as Sin.
And this disobedience became our "adamic nature" and the "fall". long before the Law was given by Moses that defined all this as Sin.

What Paul says about himself does not change his level of Authority. James, Peter and John had more authority than other disciples,

Yep, didn't work (man's work) and kept it holy (set apart).

Only Paul is the '"Apostle to the Gentiles" in the "time of the Gentiles".

So, that is a distinct office that was created for Paul, by Jesus The Christ..... as proven by the Fact that Jesus called Paul into this very ministry, after Jesus was back in Heaven.
He did this for no other Apostle, because only Paul is a "chosen vessel" with a divine purpose, which is NEW TESTAMENT DEFINED = to deliver to the body of Christ the : "Gospel of the Grace of God", as well as "church Doctrine".

MalikB......If you care to read a NT and not just cut and paste the same redundant unlearned verses that you found online or taken from your heretic's commentary, then you should read Acts 10.
In Acts of the Apostles, Chapter 10, you have Peter........and this is 10 yrs or more, after Christ is back in Heaven.
You will find Peter in ACTS 10....... is having to be taught that GENTILES can be saved.
He had NO IDEA, even 10 yrs or more, after Jesus ascended back into Heaven.

WHY NOT?
Because its PAUL who is the """""gentile apostle in the time of the Gentiles""""" who gives us all the revelation of "Justification by faith", and "the gift of Salvation< and "the Gift of Righteousness'.
All this came from PAUL.
You don't know this because you are very badly taught by your "church", whatever that is....

He is God. When was He not doing God's work?

So if i follow the instruction, 'whatever you do, do it as tho to the Lord' then i am keeping sabbath always, tho anyone who judges by mere appearances will accuse me, correct?

in fact, if my boss - or anyone at all - asks me to help him work on a saturday and i refuse, then i am guilty of breaking the command 'if someone compels you to go one mile, go with them two' is that not also correct?
