Fallowing the Sabbath is fine and dandy, I does not make you a bad person. It just has no basis in scripture.

The lesson is that we were once enemies to God and yet God sacrificed for us. We are to show that same spirit.

Simply put, Jesus said we must do many things we just can’t do to achieve sinless perfection before God. Then what happened? Jesus up and died. Now sinless perfection is not an issue. Why? Because we live in the new covenant of grace. Yes, Jesus told people to sell all they have and he ment it...

Wasting time here....but.... Paul has several books explaining why Jesus would tell us to keep the commandments even though we can’t. It’s the New Testament. The question you should ask is why would God have his son suffer and die on the cross for no reason? Why have two covenants at all? Why...

As long as we have a physical body we are not perfect. Jesus is the only perfect person who ever walked the earth.

It We cannot be perfect, No! We can walk in Jesus righteousness and God sees us as perfect.

That is exactly what he is saying!

I think you are very close to the truth here. God’s ideal is to put others above self in all things and every aspect of life. That is how we honor God. As mortal beings we cannot and are for the most part unwilling to do this. We cannot be perfect and that is our sin. Jesus can set the ideals...

Paul and Jesus are quite clear on the mater of the law. The law was put in place to show us just how sinful we actually are. We are sin. With out the aid of a savior we have no hope of salvation. God sends in Jesus at just the right time to be that savior! He died on the cross for our behalf...

What he said! 😀

Yes with an asterisk. Not every book applies with equal weight. It’s not to be read like a encyclopedia , it’s to be read like a novel. That is, God is telling his story. Also, some books are poetic in nature , more allegorical, like Genesis and Revelation. The Bible was assembled by a council...

a scripture for you... Hebrews 5:12 In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!

It’s part of living in grace. A clear theme to the NT. Not into proof text. If your amateur agenda is to find scripture to prove a point, many points , it is fairly easy to do. You will however be going against the higher meaning of the Bible.

What a wonderful Christian service!

Baptism in water or circumcision of the flesh are nothing at all. THe Bible is clear on that.

There are scriptures regarding winging ones self off of mothers milk and onto solid food. Stuff like this is baby food.

Preach Christ at all times. If necessary use words.

The theme of GHWB’s service. Wonderful wisdom there!

I truly believe the Bible was written in a certain way that one cannot just skim through and understand the message. Like when your grade school teacher asked you to read a book and toll you she would know if you only read the Cliff’s note version. What many casual readers and some experienced...

I enjoyed your post. A couple of things come to mind. Yes we could justify not helping those who have self distinctive behaviors. Did Jesus step up and redeem us when we did not deserve help? Does the Bible teach us to win others over by an outpouring of love? Heaps of burning coals or something...
