    Jehovah’s Witnesses

    There are Doctrinal differences in each denomination, including the JW church. I've talked with them and they are as stubborn as can be. The thing that upsets me about the JW's is their loyalty to the watch tower more then the bible. They say the word is their standard of truth but the watch...

    Hell, Sheol, Hades...

    If God is the creator of Hell as a place the causes suffering for eternity, i start to dislike the character of this God. If God lets people that sinned for a time continually suffer for eternity then that god is not Just. The God i serve is just. If the person in hell comes to a point were...

    Hell, Sheol, Hades...

    After trying for some time to explain from the bible and with logic i feel that some people are unwilling to see things differently. If there traditional idea of hell is eternal then they refuse to see it differently. GOD IS JUST. God is loving and God is not pleased when people suffer. Yet...

    Has the law been put aside? If so, when?

    What was nailed to the cross? Col 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; Gal 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to...

    The new covenant that Jesus estabished with His blood. But what was the old and what is the new? People are quick to agree that we are under the new covenant but there are many distorted ideas about what the old and new covenants are. The agreement made by God and Israel at siani failed in...

    Obedience.

    We are asked to share the truth, the good news, the gosple and we do this by planting seeds. Even acts of kindness and loving words can be a seed for Jesus. The seeds need nutrients, and to be nurtured. We can help and support people. But Jesus via the Holy Spirit is the only way the seed can...

    Obedience.

    God knew your heart before you had a chance to act. God knew if it was dead or not. Faith is more then just believing. When you have faith you put your salvation in His hands trust in Him. The works will naturally come when the opportunities come.

    Has the law been put aside? If so, when?

    He kept all laws perfectly? The laws contained in ordanaces and the civil laws and the moral laws. The laws that past away were the ones that were contained in ordanaces. There are many references to obeying the moral law after the death of Jesus. Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to...

    Has the law been put aside? If so, when?

    The law is what defines sin. The law without Jesus = condemnation and death. By faith + the Spirit = a new life of obedience. Rom 8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the...

    Obedience.

    Knowing Jesus, growing faith, and works all go hand in hand with each other. Works without faith mean nothing to God and faith without works are is dead. Spending time with Jesus (study, prayer, and service) is how we grow. We all recieve faith from God and what we choose to do with it will...

    Has the law been put aside? If so, when?

    scripture please. Were does the bible say this. The true sanctuary is in heaven. It is clear from what John reveals in Revelation that Jesus is in the temple in Heaven Rev 1:12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; Rev 1:13 And...

    Has the law been put aside? If so, when?

    Rom 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Rom 6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? Rom 6:17 But God be...

    Christ kept the Law of Moses, so....

    If we don't agree on the definition of "the law of moses", its hard to agree on the other points. Jesus did take them aside after He rose and explained the bible (old testament) that he fulfilled. Luk 24:44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet...

    Rev 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. If the hour of His judgement has come, is justice, and law going to be involved?

    Does that mean we can freely do the things that Christ paid the price for? Who pays for your sins? How are your sins paid for?

    Christ kept the Law of Moses, so....

    Because Christ did not lie, am i free to lie? Because Jesus didn't steal, do i have grace to steal? Because Jesus obeyed the law for me, can i live without any laws and not worry about the guilt...? Some moral laws do not change with time. And as children of God the moral law, royal law, law...

    WHAT IS SIN AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF SIN???????????

    We are not told much about the rich young ruler.... We know that he claimed to keep the law but when tested he had a god that he loved more. Exo 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Money was more important then following Jesus.
