Sunday Worship?

That is because he was Jewish, under Mosaic law. We are not.

Newsflash: You're a Judaizer. Maybe a little more clever than some, but a Judaizer still the same.

Sin is the transgression of God's law (1 John 3:4) and God's law commands to keep the Sabbath holy (Exodus 20:8-11), so someone can choose to not do that if they want, but not without sinning. In Titus 2:14, Jesus gave himself to redeem, us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people of his own possession who are zealous for doing good works, so becoming zealous for doing good works in obedience to the Mosaic Law is the way to believe in what Jesus accomplished through the cross (Acts 21:20) while returning to the lawlessness that he gave himself to redeem us from is the way to reject what he accomplished. In other words, the freedom that we have in Christ is the freedom from sin, not the freedom to sin. Obedience to God is not a matter of our conscience but of God's sovereignty.

Galatians Chapters 3 through 4 exist for a reason. The early believers had the same issues and many went back under the Law.

However, Paul pulled no punches with what to do with the Law: "Cast out the bondwoman and her son (the Law and covenant at Sinai), for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman (the gospel of life in Christ Jesus)."

Christ spent his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Mosaic Law by word and by example, so if I am a Judaizer for doing that, then so is he, and so should everyone else, but that is not what it means to be a Judaizer.

Christ spend his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Mosaic Law by word and by example, so Gentiles can look at what he taught and decide whether or not to follow him, but Gentiles can't follow him by refusing to follow what he taught. Following what Jesus taught is not just for Jews, but for Gentiles too.

Nothing quite as comforting as self-deception.

In Acts 5:32, the Spirit has been given to those who obey God, so obedience to God is part of the way to receive the Spirit, however, Galatians 3:1-2 denies that "works of the law" are part of the way to receive the Spirit, therefore that phrase does not refer to obedience to God. In Romans 3:27, Paul contrasted a law of works with a law of faith, so works of the law are of works while he said that our faith upholds God's law, so it is of faith, and a law that our faith upholds can't be referring to the same thing as the works of the law that are not of faith. Christ set a sinless example for us to follow of how to walk in obedience to the Mosaic Law and Paul's problem in Galatians was not with those who were teaching Gentiles how to follow Christ's example, but with those who were wanting to require Gentiles to obey works of the law in order to become justified.

God does not put His people under bondage, but rather He frees His people from bondage. If God saved to Israelites out of bondage in Egypt in order to put them under bondage to His law, then it would be for bondage that God set us free, however, Galatians 5:1 says that it is for freedom that God sets us free, which completely undermines how you are interpreting Galatians 4. Moreover, the Mosaic Law did not come through the line of the slave woman, but rather it came through the line of the free woman, which again completely undermines your interpretation. In Psalms 119:142, the Mosaic Law is truth, and John 8:31-36, it is sin in transgression of the Mosaic Law that puts us in bondage while it is the truth that sets us free. Galatians should not be interpreted as being opposition to following truth or as being in opposition to obeying God.

The Mosaic Law is truth (Psalms 119:142), which is the truth that Jesus embodied (John 14:6), but you are opposed to truth.

A Judaizer is one who AFTER THE NEW COVENANT, teaches to obey laws etc from the old covenant. The NT speaks against this and is why most of Christianity does not obey such things. You are in error, not us. That has been shown over and over.

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
Romans 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.


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


Galatians 4:21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
Galatians 4:22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
Galatians 4:23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
Galatians 4:24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
Galatians 4:25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
Galatians 4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.


Galatians 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.



Romans 7:1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?
Romans 7:2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
Romans 7:3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
Romans 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.



We have to be dead to the law in order to marry Christ. If we are not, then we are married to the law and we cannot receive the promises of the new covenant.




Romans 7:5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
Romans 7:6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.




Paul says Christians are delivered from the law, because the old covenant law is dead.

Do you accept that anything that is not from faith is sin?

What is the difference between transgressing one rule and not another?

Sin is disobedience against all that God has taught us.

It would be terribly misleading to say to someone that they should not kill. Knowing full well that even the thought of killing someone is the equivalent sin. Even calling someone a fool is carries the same penalty. Same goes for adultery, heaven forbid, that you would tell someone not to commit adultery. When you know that even looking at someone with lust is a direct violation of the commandment.

You need to upgrade your approach in Christianity. I would never direct someone to obey the ten commandments. Simply because that is a profound error. Jesus is calling you to a much higher level of morality, a holiness that is not implicit in the written commandments.

Soyeong, wake up.

Not Abraham, nor Isaac, the child of promise, nor Jacob were not represented at Sinai.

“The LORD did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, those who are here today, all of us who are alive.”

This is elementary.

Jesus spent his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Torah by word and by example and he did not establish the New Covenant for the purpose of undermining anything that he taught, but rather the New Covenant involves God putting the Torah in our minds and writing it on our hearts (Jeremiah 31:33). The Torah is truth (Psalms 119:142) and Jesus embodied that truth (John 14:6), so I am not in error, but rather you are opposed the truth. If teaching how to follow Jesus makes someone a Judaizer, then we should all be Judaizers, but the problem that Paul had with the Judaizers was not that they were teaching Gentiles how to follow Jesus. It is contradictory to follow God's word made flesh who refusing to follow God's word.

Again, it describes the the law that we are not under as being a law where sin had dominion over us, which does not describe the Law of God, but rather it is the law of sin where sin had dominion over us. It is by the Torah that we have knowledge of what sin is (Romans 3:20), so the fact that we are not permitted to sin means that we are still under the Torah.

God's word leads us to God's word made flesh because it is God's instructions for how to know him, but does not lead us to Christ so that we can then reject what he taught and God back to living in sin. Galatians 3:16-19 and 3:26-29 also support obedience to the Torah.

If God saved the Israelites out of Egypt in order to put them under bondage to the Torah, then it would be for bondage that God sets us free, however, Galatians 5:1 says that it is for freedom that God sets us free, which completely undermines your position. Furthermore, the Torah came through the line of the free woman, not the line of the slave woman, which again completely undermines your misuse of these verses.

When we are led by the Spirit we are under the Torah (Ezekiel 36:26-27), but are not under the law of sin.

In Romans 6:19-23, we are no longer to present ourselves as slaves to impurity, lawlessness, and sin, but are now to present ourselves to God as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification and the goal of sanctification is eternal life in Christ, which is the gift of God, so living in obedience to the Torah is the content of God's gift of eternal life, but you would interpret Romans 7:1-4 as God depriving us of His gift of eternal life. At not point was the woman set free from obeying the Torah, so there is nothing that leads to the conclusion in verse 4 that in the same way we have been set free from the Torah. It is absurd to think that we need to die to God's word in order to become married to God's word made flesh, but rather obeying God's word is the way to get married to God's word made flesh.

Here's what you are missing. Jesus was with doing and teaching...and He still needed to die for them. God in the flesh as example and teacher, and that still wasn't enough. It wasn't enough until He could live in them. And the same is true for us all.

I didn't say that God made the Mosaic Covenant with their fathers.

In Matthew 4:15-23, Jesus began his ministry with the Gospel message to repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand, which was a light to the Gentiles, and the Torah was how his audience knew what sin is, so repenting from our disobedience to it is a central part of the Gospel message, which is in accordance with Jesus being sent in fulfillment of the promise to bless us by turning us from our wickedness (Acts 3:25-26), which is the Gospel that was made known in advance to Abraham in accordance with the promise (Galatian5s 3:8), and which he taught to Gentile in Haran in accordance with the promise (Genesis 12:1-5).

In Genesis 18:19, God knew Abraham that he would walk in His way by doing righteousness and justice that the Lord may bring to him all that He has promised. In Genesis 26:4-5, God will multiply Abraham's children as the stars in the heaven, to his children He will give all of these lands, and through his children all of the nations of the earth will be blessed because he heard God's voice and guarded His charge, His commandments, His statutes, and His laws. In Deuteronomy 30:16, if the children of Abraham will love God with all of their heart by walking in His way in obedience to His commandments, statutes and laws, then they will live and multiply and God will bless them in the land that they go to possess. So the promise was made to Abraham and brought about because he walked in God's way in obedience to His law, he taught his children and those of his house hold to do that, and because they did that in obedience to the Torah.

In Psalms 119:1-3, the Torah is how the children of Abraham knew how to be blessed, and in John 8:39, Jesus said that if they were children of Abraham, then they would be doing the same works as him, so the way that the children of Abraham are multiplied and are a blessing to the nations in accordance with inheriting the promise through faith is by turning the nations from their wickedness and teaching them to do the same works as Abraham by walking in God's way in obedience to the Torah, which is spreading the Gospel.

Let's start with an easy one....Where in the gospels did Jesus teach we should keep Saturday sabbath?

Where in the New Testament did the Apostles teach we should keep Saturday sabbath?

Jesus live in obedience to the Torah so that is also the way that we have the delight of getting to live when he is living in us.

In Matthew 4:15-23, Jesus began his ministry with the Gospel message to repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand, which was a light to the Gentiles, and the Torah is how his audience knew what sin is (Romans 3:20), so repenting from our disobedience to it is a central part of the Gospel message, which includes repenting from not keeping the 7th day holy. Furthermore, Jesus set a sinless example of how to walk in obedience to the Torah, so he would have still taught full obedience to it by example even if he had said nothing, including keeping the Sabbath holy, and we are told to follow his example (1 Peter 2:21-22) and that those who are in Christ are obligated to walk in the same way he walked (1 John 2:6). Jesus also taught how to keep the 7th day holy through his interactions with the Pharisees on the topic.

The Apostles also taught to repent from our sin in various places, which includes repenting from breaking the Sabbath. In Colossians 2:16, they were keeping God's holy days in obedience to His commands, they were being judged by pagans for doing that, and Paul was encouraging them not to let any man judge them and keep the from obeying God. In Acts 15:21, the expectation was that Gentiles would continue to learn about how to obey Moses by hearing him taught every Sabbath in the synagogues, which implies that they were already keeping the Sabbath holy in accordance with what Christ taught. In 1 Peter 1:16, we are told to be holy for God is holy, which is a quote from Leviticus where God was giving instructions for how to do that, which includes keeping God's Sabbaths holy (Leviticus 19:2-3). In 1 Peter 2:9-10, Gentiles are included as part of God's chosen people, a holy nation, a royal priesthood, and a treasure of God's own possession, which are terms used to describe Israel (Deuteronomy 7:6), so Gentiles also have the delight of getting to obey the instructions that God gave to Israel for how to fulfill these roles. It would be contradictory for a Gentile to want to live as part of a holy nation while not wanting to follow God's instructions for how to live as part of a holy nation.

Sure. But why do you focus on the law, and not Jesus?

Compensatory history much? Jesus was born under the Law and gave Himself so that all men who received Him could be redeemed as children of promise who were NEVER under the Law.
