    The whole law as he is a debtor to do the whole law not some part of the law (Galatians 5:3) The law is not divided into sections because Israel agreed to obey the Book of the Covenant, which is the entire package. What do you think the phrase "the law" means TMS? Obviously it include the law...

    That is incorrect and I can prove it. The seventh day of the week is a day of COMPLETE rest. The seventh day of the week is not called Saturday or the seventh day, it is called the "sabbath day'. Holy days or feast days or weeks in Leviticus 23 are never called "sabbath days". There is a...

    To identify sin but they appear often among a stack of other sins. Romans 1:29-32 People having been filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, and evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful...

    Your declaring that you are not under the law. You just stated that Jesus fulfilled the law and the law is obsolete. Yes, there is evidence that circumcision is no longer required. Then for some unknown reason you imply Jesus did not fulfill the law in Exodus 20, so we must fulfill that law...

    A synagogue is not a church. Synagogues belong to Judaism, whereas churches belong to Christianity. They read the Torah (law) in a synagogue and pray.

    The only robe I wear is that bright robe of righteousness that the Lord has given us as a gift. Romans 5:17 For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the...

    You are not correct. Peter, John, and James, were assigned to preach and teach the gospel to Israel. Paul was chosen by the Lord to preach and teach to the Gentile world. Paul was very rarely in Jerusalem where as Peter, John, and James, spent the bulk of their lives in Israel.

    We cannot construct doctrine on the basis of a single verse. Peter spent decades in Jerusalem but Paul travelled the Gentile world on 3 missionary journeys. Galatians 2:1-2 Then after an interval of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along also. It was...

    We disagree on this point. Church tradition can be unreliable at times and plain wrong at other times. I see John as making the pathway smooth with a simple water baptism and a repentance from sin. A simple preparation for the approaching Lord of Glory. Jesus invoked the new covenant in His...

    Paul clearly identified Peter as an apostle to the Jews. I will ask you again Delvianna. Was Paul incorrect in Galatians to identify Peter as an apostle to the Jews? You are basing your claim on the accuracy of a few lines in Matthew's gospel.

    John the Baptist did not preach the gospel of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 1-6). John the Baptist only taught a repentance of sin and gave a water baptism. Luke 3:15-16 Now while the people were in a state of expectation and they all were thinking carefully in their hearts about John, whether...

    In your interpretation of the N.T are you saying that Paul was wrong? Galatians 2:9 And recognizing the grace that I had been given, James, Cephas, and John, those reputed to be pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the...

    They don't understand the difference between the old covenant and the new covenant. I don't think they even recognize the concept of a covenant. One covenant was sealed with the blood of an oxen and the other was sealed with the blood of Jesus. They seem to strictly adhere to the Book of the...

    Jesus was sent only to Israel. Jesus was talking to the Jews about the Book of the Covenant. Jesus near the end went on to establish a new covenant with the disciples. Luke 22:20 And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup which is poured out for you is the new...

    The KJV was not started from a blank page. King James instructed the 47 scholars to use the 1602 edition of the Bishops' Bible as their base, modifying it only when the original languages demanded a correction. The translators heavily relied on earlier English versions, especially the Tyndale...

    You got that right. Israel by law was commanded to rest on the seventh day. No one needs to go any where in Israel on the rest day you can stay home and put your feet up. For an Israelite that is perfect obedience to the sabbath commandment.

    It is important to note that Exodus 24 specifies the book of the covenant (the whole law). There is no subdivision in the law in Exodus 24. Exodus 24:6:7 Moses took half of the blood and put it in bowls, and the other half he splattered on the altar. Then he took the Book of the Covenant and...

    Here is where you are seriously wrong. Israel was in covenant to obey the law given in Exodus 20 and that is not my opinion. In the New Testament it states that we are in a new covenant. 2 Corinthians 3:6 Who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the...
