Jesus Came To Fulfill Not To Destroy

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Galatians 2:19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
Galatians 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.


How could Paul keep writing this, over and over, in every one of his epistles if he wanted people to keep the saturday sabbath because it is in the Law???

Don't you know that would make him contradict his own word?

Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.


Paul is saying that those who are under the law are obligated to do ALL the things written in the Book of the Law. That means if you are going to "keep" a saturday sabbath then you have to do ALL the other things as well. That means you are practicing JUDAISM and not CHRISTIANITY.

Galatians 3:11-12
11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.


How can you attempt to teach when you don't understand scripture? Don't you think you should learn before you teach?

Antinomianists argue that Jesus will say to the many who cry "Lord Lord" in the judgment, "I never knew you, depart from Me", and insist this means those who will be lost were never known by Jesus, and thus never saved.

I always point out that one little word "many" and remind them "many" does not mean "all".

Yes, there will be "many" unknown to Jesus who swung their arms in church and performed miracles by the power of devils, but there will also be those among "all" who wind up in the Lake of Fire those who were fully converted, grace saved Christians but kicked Jesus off the throne of their heart and took His place there, and wound up lost. The Unmerciful Servant, the capitulating canine, the washed sow, the man again entangled in the polluted world, the "many" who allowed abounding inequity to kill their agape love cold and dead, the enlightened recipients of the Holy Spirit that wind up fallen away into impenitence, etc....all these attest to the fact that Jesus will have fully known some who wind up splitting hell wide open.

Antinomianism is contrary to everything the Bible teaches. God expects us to live a life of morality, integrity, and love. Jesus Christ freed us from the burdensome commands of the Old Testament Law, but that is not a license to sin. Rather, it is a covenant of grace. We are to strive to overcome sin and cultivate righteousness, depending on the Holy Spirit to help us.

There is a difference between the Mosaic Law with its sacrifices and the 10 Commandments--are you saying people can now commit adultery, steal, --that they can break all of the commandments--they are a WHOLE--we can't pick and choose. All my life I gathered for assembly on Sunday which nearly all Christendom does--in fact Sunday has been called the Sabbath since Constantine issued it as the official day of rest. "He will seek to change times and laws". However, I began to study this recently and realize you can't change the Sabbath--it is one of the 10 Commandments. Jesus said, "If you love me keep my commandments." John 5:3 says, "In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome."

We read in the book of Acts that Paul was in the synagogue every Sabbath teaching; the believers, both Jews and Gentiles met on the Sabbath day at the synagogue and they also met every day in their homes. People like to quote Jesus is our Sabbath rest--but that does not mean he is the literal Sabbath day, it is a figurative term meaning we can rest from the works of the LAW--it's not about physically resting from our work. It is not only a day of rest given to us by God but it is a day to remember his finished work of creation, which so many Christians don't even see as important--you will find many who believe in evolution. This is NOT about legalism--Jesus said "The Sabbath was made for man and not man for the sabbath."

note; people also like to quote the verse, "let know one judge you regarding meat or drink, or a sabbath day--A sabbath day is NOT the same as THE Sabbath day--'a' sabbath day are the special high holy days--like some Christians celebrate Christmas and Easter.

Antinomianists of today are no different than the Pharisees of Scripture: both claim the promises of God's favor but reject the condition upon which they are to be claimed: total surrender of the heart.

Antinomianists use verses which condemn the specific heresy of attempting to use obedience as a means to obtain salvation, as blanket condemnation for the general, much broader idea of "reasonable service" we are to render to God in the keeping of His commandments, and cling desperately to the false idea that we may by dead faith obtain that which can only be obtained by living faith: eternal life.

Perhaps you missed the part where I back up my spiritual propositions with Scripture hyperlinks in my posts so everyone can read the truth for themselves? Yes, I'm sure you did.

Thats true, we not under the law, but which is it that we are not under? Let's read with understanding (Gal. 3:1, 13, 16-17, 19, 24) (v.1) O FOOLISH Ga-la’-tians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? (v.13) Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, CURSED IS EVERYONE THAT HANGETH ON A TREE: What law is this talking about? Let the bible speak for itself.

(v.16) Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, and to seeds, as of many; but as of One, AND TO THY SEED, which is Christ. (v.17) And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

Now pay attention, the law that is being spoken of here came four hundred and thirty years after this covenant. But God’s holy commandments have been around forever even before man was created. Remember that Satan was kicked out of heaven because iniquity (sin) was found in him. And what is sin? The transgression of the law (commandments). Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. Now we have just read the biblical definition of sin, the transgression (breaking) of the law (commandments.) It doesn’t matter what you or I think sin is, it’s what God says sin is that counts. (1John 3:4)

(v.19) Wherefore then serveth the law? A question is being asked here. Then why should we serve this law? It was added because of transgression, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; the law that we are talking about here was added because of sin. But we now know that sin is the transgression of the law.

How do you add a law if sin is the transgression of the law? Because there are two sets of laws, you have God’s holy commandments which abided forever, and you had the animal sacrificial law which was added because of sin, but it was only good until the seed should come to whom the promise was made, and that seed was Jesus.

(v.24) Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. This animal sacrificial law was only a schoolmaster.

And this schoolmaster taught you that when you sinned in ignorance blood had to be shed (an animal sacrificed). But Christ being the ultimate sacrifice shed his precious blood once and for all, and by doing this putting an end to the animal sacrificial law. Paul says in Romans 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law. So when you quoted all the places in the Bible that do away with this animal sacrificial law, not understanding that Paul talks about two sets of law. The Royal law (Ten Commandments) and the animal sacrificial law sometimes in the same verse you bring destruction to yourselves.

Sometimes as a Christian you don’t have to say a word, people will see your works.

Your argument is with Paul and Holy Scripture.

Surely you didn't misunderstand the simple scriptures that were posted?

"By this we can be sure that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments. If anyone says, “I know Him,” but does not keep His commandments, he is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him:…--1st John 2:4

Does anyone disregard the commandments of the New Testament?

No. Did you?

Jesus said, "If you love me keep my commandments." --John 14:15

"In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome."--John 5:3

"To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law." - 1 Cor 9:21 KJV

What did Paul mean by this if not as an extension of the concept that Christ fulfils the law and that by following Christ's law one satisfies the requirements of the OT law and its commandments?

How else would you rationalize passages like this where Paul states that is acceptable to not circumcise males? That it is acceptable to not avoid idols or things deemed unclean in the OT? That everyone should be convinced in their own mind about how to esteem the days? This isn't lawlessness, this is fulfilment of the law through Christ and the law of Christ.
