liveforGod: NO FLESH CAN SUCCESSFULLY AND PERFECTLY OBEY GOD'S LAW. DON'T BE DECEIVED! ANYBODY THAT TELLS YOU THAT HE HAS BEEN KEEPING IT IS ONLY LYING...IF CAN KEEP IT, THERE WILL BE NO NEED FOR GRACE. IF THERE IS NO NEED FOR GRACE, THERE WILL BE NO NEED FOR THE DEATH OF THE SON OF GOD. WE WILL BE LIVING IN FOOLS PARADISE, IF WE THINK THAT WE CAN KEEP AND OBEY PERFECTLY THE HOLY LAWS OF GOD. |

bloodofthelamb: You still do not get it. Read this passage from the bible. 17 As Jesus was starting out on his way to Jerusalem, a man came running up to him, knelt down, and asked, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus asked. “Only God is truly good. 19 But to answer your question, you know the commandments: ‘You must not murder. You must not commit adultery. You must not steal. You must not testify falsely. You must not cheat anyone. Honor your father and mother.’[a]” 20 “Teacher,” the man replied, “I’ve obeyed all these commandments since I was young.” 21 Looking at the man, Jesus felt genuine love for him. “There is still one thing you haven’t done,” he told him. “Go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” 22 At this the man’s face fell, and he went away sad, for he had many possessions. Some people are trained from their young age to follow the laws of Moses. As gentile to the faith, it is just impossible to follow and obey the laws to the latter without faulting, hence the GRACE. |

That a thing is "Biblical" (if by that is meant it is in the Bible) DOES NOT NECESSARILY mean it is for the Christian. That very many Christians don't seem to understand this shows how starved God's sheep have been. The book of Hebrews is so CLEAR that the New Covenant Jesus Christ brought is DIFFERENT and SUPERIOR to every other system INCLUDING that which came through Moses - Judaism. So, when Christians keep going back to the "old" to justify their emotional attachments to "works" for salvation or rewards it is simply very unfortunate. When Christians CLOSE their eyes to how the early church conducted its affairs; including examples and instructions on giving and are running back to the old - whether pre-law or under the Law - it shows a generation with itching ears seeking only what will EXCITE them. When Martin Luther objected to what the church was doing during his day (the 500th year of which we're celebrating this year 2017) and POINTED to the New Testament to show how the Church had deviated from the Word, many opposed him. How dare he "attack" the 'Men of God' who were working by 'Apostolic' authority. That same scenario is here with us today! Many will attack Christians who are using A SUPERIOR AUTHORITY - the Bible - to question man's positions on matters of doctrine. They have placed man at par with the Word of God, if not even on a higher level. What brought about the first conference (COUNCIL) of the Church? It this same issue of whether the "old" was required of the Christian or not. And what the Holy Spirit's answer? The Christian is excluded from the "old". Therefore when today's Christian refuses to stand in the liberty into which Christ has set him free he only entangles himself with a yoke of bondage. A bondage that his "deliverance sessions" can never set him free from. Any one who chooses to run his Christian life by EVEN one aspect of the "old" is under obligation and required to keep the whole of the "old". (GALATIANS 5:3). Infact such a one has been severed from Christ, who seeks to be in right standing with God through the "old" (and anything in it like TITHING), and has fallen from grace (GALATIANS 5:4). |
