    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Perhaps you might quote passage and highlight the words that state this plainly. 2 Corinthians 3:1-7 KJV 1) Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? 2) Ye are our epistle written in our hearts...

    Grace and Law.

    Scripture is plain: Romans 7:1-4 KJV 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? 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...

    Grace and Law.

    Jesus lives in me, and He is my Law. He informs me what He wants me to do, this is my Law. He shows me what it means to love others, that is my Law. He leads me away from what is not good, this is my Law. I know it's Him, I know it's real, when my character is what the Bible describes of...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    You are saying this but the Bible does not. Can you not see this? 2 Corinthians 3:1-8 KJV 1) Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? 2) Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read...

    Does Grace replace the law?

    It remains true: We are not regenerated due to our obedience, we are regenerated due to our trust in Jesus Christ. Much love!

    Does Grace replace the law?

    LOL!! Are you afraid of grace? Does it feel out of control? How would you feel if your wife left you to go dig up the body of her dead previous husband to sit at the kitchen table with instead of you? Romans 7:4 KJV Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of...

    If you loved Jesus, would you not leave the corpse of your dead husband so you can serve Jesus? Romans 7:1-6 KJV 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? 2) For the woman which hath an husband is bound...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    That's not what it says. 2 Corinthians 3:1-3 KJV 1) Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? 2) Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: 3) Forasmuch as ye are...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Do you not see how the Law of Love is as high above the Law you adhere to as the heavens are above the earth? The heart of the OT Law was to love God with all you are and have, and to love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus gave us a New Commandment . . . that we love others, not merely as we...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Do you tithe to Levites? Do you bring your fellowship offerings to the temple? Do you cast the first stone at someone of whom you've accused of a crime? Do you want more examples? No, you do not keep the Law, nor can you. No one can. Not since 70 AD. God closed that door. Much love!

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Your question was rhetorical. More games. And in this way you've dodged the comments to which you were supposedly responding. The Law was a schoolmaster until they came to Christ. If you insist on being under the Law, it's like you've enrolled in a Jewish elementary school. Much love!

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    How is that so? Faith establishes the Law because of the necessity of faith. The Law will only condemn you for not keeping it, and you do not keep the Law - the covenant God made with Israel at Mt. Horeb. The only way to be saved is by grace through faith, because the Law cannot save...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    You keep wanting to put words in my mouth, it's dishonest, and non-productive. Better to say nothing at all. Much love!

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Galatians 3:21-25 KJV 21) Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. 22) But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ...

    Does Grace replace the law?

    We are not regenerated due to our obedience, we are regenerated due to our trust in Jesus Christ. Having been regenerated we pass from death to life. The grace that leads to life is our trust in Jesus. John 1:12-13 KJV 12) But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the...

    Galatians 3:1-12 KJV 1) O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? 2) This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Romans 4:13-16 KJV 13) For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. 14) For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect: 15) Because the...
