"Okay, in Galatians Paul is correcting the idea that the law alone saves you." Is literally your 2nd sentence reworded. So your own conclusion is erroneous? If a person is justified by the law, it means: The law itself provides the basis for finding that person legally in the right. That...

Care to share any instances?

Okay, in Galatians Paul is correcting the idea that the law alone saves you. That doesn't mean you throw out the law though. It's forgiveness from God that allows you to be saved, but that doesn't mean that obedience to the law is null and void since God keeps telling us to follow His commands...

Crazy story, thanks for sharing!

:rolleyes: Boggles my mind how people like you just ignore what someone says when they've clarified their stance multiple times and then act as if they said nothing and then act as though I'm the problem... unreal.

Okay, I'm going to say this, I think is now a 4th time.... CIVIL LAW IS NOT MORAL LAW. With that, I'm backing out of replying to you since you continually fail to recognize that and you keep bringing it up as if I'm including it and I'm not. And I've corrected it enough...

Yes and also... I need to know more now lol How in the world did you break your legs 3 times? If you don't mind sharing. If not, that's okay.

Thanks for your response, if you don't mind reading my last message, post number 8, maybe that helps give clarity as to what I mean? Hopefully lol

I did, but my main focus is on the relationship rather than what we specifically are doing for God. Essentially, someone asks How do you know you and God are close? How do you know you have a relationship with Him? Give examples of how that shows up in your life without the abstract stuff...

I don't think you all are understanding what I was asking, I was asking for examples of trusting God. Literal examples, not abstract, "trust Him/follow Him/seek guidance". Let me start by an example as to how God can show His presence, without having to show it in life actions (like, you get a...

By your own actions, you're taking "fulfilled" and altering it into abolishment. They are not the same thing. Fulfilled keeps the law present, but the requirements of the law complete. Abolishment says the law is no longer in effect. I think I mentioned this earlier in another post but I can't...

I appreciate that. I recognize people are going to have various different interpretations. It's nice to know there are some people here that don't take the personal route of insults, even if we don't agree.

You're taking those verses out of context to try and fit a narrative. Let's start with Hebrews 10: In order to sacrifice, people had to go through ritual cleansing. That is even repeated in verse 1 that says they had to make their approach "perfect". Verse 4 says that any animal sacrifices...

I have several times acknowledged the NT. It just seems like you want to hear what you want to hear from what I'm saying instead of what I'm actually saying. I've clarified twice now with you that I'm referencing the moral laws and I'm separating moral vs civil. So ALL moral laws. I don't know...

Its not back peddling. It's acknowledging there are two different laws in the old testament. The 1 people refer to following is the moral law and not in reference to the civil. Even the Orthodox Jews recognize that. And yes, God dwells in us, but doesn't he literally dwell in His temple in...

I will refer you to post 276 Agreed. But my comment was made towards someone who is actively saying parts of scripture are wrong. First 1, Hebrews says sacrifices never took away sins. So no, no one in the history of sacrifices was doing that. 2nd, those are laws concerning how Israel was to...

All commandments are meant to be followed. ALL of them. Christ said: John 14:15 — “If you love Me, keep My commandments.” John 14:21 — “He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me.” John 15:10 — “If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept...

You: Take accountability for how you talk to people. The way you talk to others is disgusting. Calling you out for your behavior isn't "nasty, disgusting". But go on, play the victim and not actually take accountability for what you say to others. Blocked.

Ditto. Your attitude is atrocious.

I realized today that a lot of people when they say they trust in God, they always refer to God's actions. Trust essentially that whatever you're going through, you will come out of it. But I realized no one seems to discuss what it means to trust in GOD. Period. Let me give you a random...
