    There is only one contextual category and everything is summed up in that one category. John 13:34-35 A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another. Romans...

    Is that perfection? The only perfection I understand is the perfection in that love for others and even my enemies. Philippians 3:12-15 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me...

    The Mosaic law is not of faith. Galatians 3:10-14 For as many as are of the works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written, “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT ABIDE BY ALL THINGS WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW, TO PERFORM THEM.” Now that no one is justified by the Law before God is...

    AI does it way faster than I can. The Holy Spirit is the source and the power. What you may not understand is that the majority of the Christian world have been taught a false gospel. A false gospel based on a set of rules and a sacrament list that are both powerless to invoke inward...

    You seem to be steering a course towards the law and avoiding the recognition of the context in the letter to the Romans. Paul is aiming the bulk of his letter at the Jews in Rome those under the law (Romans 2:17-24). Paul tells the Jews who have the written law (morals) that faith and love is...

    Not sure how you support your case using those two references? You used the word "moral" but love is the foundation for any morality you may express. Agape love moves far beyond these primitive moral values. God is love and that love is eternal and beyond our comprehension.

    I read your reference (Romans 1:20) and I could not see any direct correlation with the law and the ten commandments? Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what...
