Bidam:
God bless you my brother. Thank you for saying the truth as it is. No one can keep the law and that is why grace came, infact grace teaches us to say no to ungodliness and wordly passions and to live self controlled upright and godly lives. but for folks to advocate lawless behaviours like sex before marriages, abortions,masturbations and the likes is what i am kicking against. These antinomians are fond of distorting the pauline epistles. These are the error of lawless men peter warned us to guard against.

Bidam, your bolded statement is not correct.

ISRAEL DID NOT LOSE IT BECAUSE THE LAWS WERE HARD TO KEEP, ISRAEL LOST IT BECAUSE SHE REFUSED TO OBEY. SHE CHOSE WICKEDNESS, EVIL AND IDOLATRY AGAINST THE LAW OF GOD.

Isaiah 42:24
Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the Lord, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.


Jeremiah 26:3
If so be they will hearken, and turn every man from his evil way, that I may repent me of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of their doings.


Jeremiah 32:23
23 And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them:


Nehemiah 9:29
And testifiedst against them, that thou mightest bring them again unto thy law: yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in themwink and withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.

MrPresident1:


Shameful.
You are hard headed.
The Law is not in the 'thou shalt nots'
The entire Law is in 'Obey my voice'
What is the voice saying?
Thou shall love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, with all thy soul with all thy mind.
Circumcise you heart and be no more stiffnecked
This is the summary of the Law, there is no greater law.
He who loves his brother has fulfilled the Law.

Why is this so hard to understand?

Can you categorically say you love God with all your being?

Grace came to help you keep the law indeed.

Now that grace is here, have you successfully kept the laws?

Is that what you read in my post? Do you advocate masturbations, premarital sex, abortions and gay marriages in your church?

Jeremiah 29:13
And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.


John 14:21
He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.


I have found God. He has manifested Himself to me as He promised those who love Him by keeping His commandments.

My question- Now that grace is here, have you successfully kept these good works?

Go back back to Genesis and sincerely ask yourself why Adam couldn't keep one command that God gave him. That was why God instituted the sacrifice... God himself knows Isreal couldn't keep 10 and the sacrificial law was put in place..And when Christ came, he offered himself once and for all and ended that. I agree with you that obedience to God and His word is the key to living uprightly. But it is impossible for man to keep the law of love since we are carnal. Christians are only encouraged to love one another and hence fulfill the righteous requirement of the law. That is why the efficacy of the blood of Jesus is always there to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. He is the one who made us righteous, it is not by our own power or works.

yet you cannot provide it. anyway Sir, do you read in your Bible that; THE LAW WAS GIVEN BY MOSES,BUT GRACE AND TRUTH CAME BY JESUS CHRIST. Now,let me share more light on the verse you gave (John 1 vs 1)

John 1 vs 1 : The plainest reason why The Son of GOD is called the WORD (Not the LAW OF MOSES as you claim) is this, We all know our words explain our minds to others, so was the SON OF GOD sent in order to REVEAL HIS FATHER'S MIND to the WORLD, (NOT THROUGH THE LAW, BUT THROUGH THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND TRUTH).The chapter says CHRIST proves that HE IS GOD, HE asserts, HIS EXISTENCE in the beginning: HIS coexistence with the FATHER. Note: (HE IS the means NOW through which GOD REVEAL AND SPEAKS to US (HIS WORD,HIS GOSPEL and NOT THE LAW OF MOSES) see:Hebrew 1 vs 1-2. thank sir

Liar.

John 3:34
For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.


Jesus Christ is the voice of God;

Jeremiah 7:22-23
22 For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:
23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.

JESUS CHRIST IS THE LAW OF MOSES.

Even though grace and truth came by Him he was no lawless man.

Because you have grace it does not give you a liscence to be lawless.

As a matter of fact quite the autere man.

I wish I could tell you I love God with all of my heart- Only you and Jesus can make such claims.

I can't make such claim because I am weak in my flesh. Even as I love God I still love self. God demand that I hate self like Jesus did, by subjecting self to disdain to the glory of God.

I am in a relationship with God, a relationship that increases my trust and my love daily as I study His word to know more of Him.

Deuteronomy 18 vs 15 -19

OBVIOUSLY,This prophecy has been fulfilled concerning (JESUS CHRIST) that there should come a PROPHET, great above all the prophets; by whom GOD would make known HIMSELF and HIS WILL (NOT THROUGH THE LAW OF MOSES) to the children of men, more fully and clearly than HE had ever done before., JESUS CHRIST is the LIGHT of the world (John 8 vs 12 and HE is the Word/ World by whom GOD speaks to us,(John 1 vs: 1: Heb 1 vs 2.(1) In HIS birth HE should be one of their nation,(2) In HIS resurrection HE should be raised up at Jerusalem, and (MOST IMPORTANTLY) HIS DOCTRINE should go forth to all the World (Mat 28 vs 19-20). Now,GOD, having raised up HIS SON (JESUS CHRIST) to bless us (NOT THROUGH THE LAW OF MOSES, BUT THROUGH THE GOSPEL), SAID, HE, should be like MOSES, only above him. This Prophet who is JESUS CHRIST is come. The view of GOD which HE gives, will not terrify or overwhelm, but encourages us, HE speaks with fatherly affection and divine authority united. (Note: Whoever refuses to LISTEN AND OBEY, JESUS CHRIST AND HIS GOSPEL, shall find it at his peril: the same Prophet is to be HIS judge, (John 12 vs 48). Woe unto them you refuses to Hearken to HIS VOICE, TO ACCEPT HIS SALVATION, OR YIELD OBEDIENCE TO HIS GOSPEL. This is the Word of GOD,

Lastly: FAILURE TO OBEY AND LISTEN TO THE GOSPEL WILL RESULT IN ETERNAL PERDITION (2 THES 1 VS cool
Our LORD JESUS CHRIST will in that appear from HEAVEN, HE will come in HIS GLORY AND POWER, HIS light will be piercing, and HIS POWER consuming, This appearance will be terrible to those that KNOW NOT GOD, especially to those WHO REBEL AGAINST REVELATION,(BENT ON KEEPING THE LAW OF MOSES, the law they fail themselves to keep) and OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of Our LORD JESUS CHRIST. This is the great crime of multitudes, THE GOSPEL IS REVEALED; and they will NOT BELIEVE, they will NOT OBEY IT. Here lies there reward:
There are (2) Two classes of people to be judged according to this Scriptural verse:
1. They that know not God—that put forth no effort to know or understand HIM, AFTER HE HAS MADE IS WILL KNOW IN JESUS AND HIS GOSPEL (FALSE TEACHERS) (2 Cor. 4:4; Matthew 13:19)
2. They that obey not the gospel—that put forth no effort to obey it (FALSE PREACHERS, COVETOUS PEOPLE) (John 3:17-20,36; Acts 7:51; Romans 1:21-32)

HE WHO HAS AN EAR,LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYS TO THE CHURCHES (REV 2 VS 17: MK 4 VS 23). PEACE
