    The grace of God and the Law

    I agree, this passage is a great thermometer of where someone's heart and mind is. The difference between old and new covenants is that the old covenant, as exemplified here, "the man who does this will live by them", that is, Keep the Law, and live, while the new covenant is, believe in Jesus...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    You refuse to acknowledge the context. You've proof-texted a verse contrary to it's context to support your assertion. I've shown you this clearly, therefore, I can only conclude you do this intentionally. May God give you understanding and repentance.

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Which was after Isaiah's invitation to the gentiles. Their only way to be in covenantal relationship with God was to join Israel. This demonstrates that you misused the Scriptures. You should not do this, and I'm not going to further enable you. It's deceptive and wrong. Much love!

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    You are doubling down on deception and error. The passage speaks for itself. You carve it into pieces to make it say what you want it to say. May the Spirit give you understanding! Ephesians 2:11-12 KJV 11) Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    The Covenant was not merely the 10 Commandments. Jesus used the expression "the Law and the Prophets", which contains the entirety of the covenant, Exodus 19:3-8 KJV 3) And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    This was an invitation to join Israel and come under the covenant God made with Israel at Mt. Horeb. You are misappropriating something that was not for you. You've posted snippets of Scripture removed from context, to make it look like they say one thing when they say something else, which is...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Remembering that even as Jesus taught the Law to those who were under the Law, we do not intrude into a covenant to which we have never belonged. Galatians 3:2-7 KJV 2) This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 3) Are ye so...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Galatians 5:22-25 KJV 22) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23) Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. This is the life/character the Holy Spirit bears within us. The admonition is: Galatians 5:25 KJV If we live in the...

    Gifts given in the spirit?

    I've experienced that same fear of God when I was reluctant to do what He had told me. And when He became very emphatic, "This is what you are to do, and you will do it!" there was no room left to say "no". I've experienced various encounters with God that were sometimes mysterious, sometimes...

    Grace and Law.

    This is not what the Scripture says. You've misrepresented God's Word to make your point. That's not good. Romans 8:1-4 KJV 1) There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2) For the law of the Spirit of life...

    Grace and Law.

    This is the heart. If you believe that you keep the Law, and in doing so this makes you acceptible to God, you are fallen from grace. Faith in His Law? You've just replace Jesus with an ancient covenant that was never yours. Much love!

    It's better if you see it yourself. Much love!

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Do you see the inconsistency in your last couple of posts? That won't happen if your doctrine is correct. Much love!

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    You said it was plainly stated in that passage, do you remember? But the passage is speaking of letters of commendation. If, as you say, the Law is written in your heart . . . who did that writing? You are correct that it's a mistake to not trust God, so definitely trust Him! Accept His...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    Right. OK. This way you will never have to my prior request that you show where those words appear in that verse, which is a win for you, because they don't, and you will not have to acknowledge that truth. So there you have it. Much love!

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    I'm not playing along with your deflection, that's all. You have a way of sidestepping things, and I'm not interested in that. This is how it works. I ask you something you don't want to answer, so instead you post something else, ask me a question, and then fault me when I don't answer...

    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    So you are again deflecting. That's OK, I in fact know that you cannot show the words in that passage that read as you claim. Because it's not there. Will you agree on this very simple matter? That this verse does not actually say it is the Law written on their hearts? Much love!
