Well, you are right. I have no right saying that about him as I am learning myself.

I take my post back.m and I apologise.

However, it's wrong of you to call someone lawless simply cos they refused to place themselves under the law.

My dear you have said it allsmiley

The lawless man of 2 thess 2 is called LAWLESS because he exalts himself over the LAW

The little horn is the one and same individual he that will exalt himself and try and change CUSTOMS AND TRADITION

Have you ever asked yourself whose customs and traditions the LITTLE HORN IS TRYING TO CHANGE?

EVEN IN COMMON SPEAK THE OPPOSITE OF BEING LAWFULL IS BEING LAWLESS smiley

Who said I don't pay tithe? I only said it cannot be performed the way the law instructs because there is no levitical priesthood. Tithe simply means to give one tenth.

Under the law? Do you knwo what that means?
Here is what Paul used to be like

Galatians 1:14 " And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers".

You are aware that the traditions of the elders are the traditions of man Paul taught against. How can he teach against the Torah? That was the only scripture they had in his day,
Saul's conversion happened on a brief encounter on the road to Damascus, and you think he learned a whole new gospel in that short encounter?
How long did it take Moses to write God's instruction?

Those who were "under the law" believed that you must observe the law and the traditions to be saved.
Faith demands you ackowledge Christ's blood paid for your sins, when you deserved death. Does that mean you can sin so grace may abound? no. So what is sin? sin is transgression of the law. What is the law? The Torah (instruction) of Yahweh.

Let me give another example of the traditions mentioned by Jesus:

Matthew 15:2-3
Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

They are different things. The laws the pharisees added to the Torah, that was the bondage. How can God give instructions, and then you have the effrontery to call that bondage?

Mosthigh of NL, leave me be. I obey the law n commandment of God as it is sumed up in Love.

Love your God with all your might, heart n soul

And love your neighbour as yourself

These are the greatest commandments.

I do these by obeying his word - enough instructions in the new testament. There is no aspect of these commandment that you will not find in the epistles.

Stop drawing me away from the light. God's grace is sufficient for me.

And BTW, I don't belong to any camp here. I have not seen anyone here that I agree with 100%. I don't know you all anyway. Cos I am beginning to see head boy, disciple and all.

I am a Christ follower.

Thanks and goodnight to u all. We will see 2mrw by God's grace.

How much of this advice have you applied to yourself? I have never claimed absolute knowledge of anything on this forum; I came here myself seeking the light on tithing and non of you could prove to me why I should continue tithing and so I stopped. How does this offend you?
My bro..stop acting childish on spiritual issues,coming to a forum to seek help on your spiritual bankruptcy won't help you.Why not take time and prayerfully study the scriptures and ask the Holy Spirit(that's if you have him anyway)on this issue of tithing that you are so fixated about.This issue has even caused enmity and friction between you,me and others in this forum if you really care to admit.Why are you so bitter sef if Christian give 10% of their earnings to churches? Na your money That's what Paul refers to as christian liberty. You are not going to hell if you don't tithe,neither are you going to hell if you do.

We have treated these issue with people who have long been here in this forum like: Goshen, zikky,pastor kun,frosbel,debosky,olaa,image,joagbaaje etc.They never for once exhibited personal hatred and prejudice, you are exhibiting here bro..Please pray you don't fall into a gall of bitterness over this issue.

Imagine this envy and strife in a faceless forum where you can't see us. I wonder what will happen if you now come face to face with us.Try to fulfill the commandment of Love abegi.

JesusisLord85:

haha if obeying the commandments makes me a 'Judaizer', then God bless you for recognising this.
So God denouncing the superficial use of the law, how does that support the idea that he dissolved the law? God wants to be worshipped in spirit and truth.
When you can show me that Yashua was a Christian, then I will follow your teachings.
Lol your quote is hilarious "you would realize that the law was not the central point of the Jewish religion... it was Jehovah God and what he demanded from his people" :s
The torah is God's instruction for his people my friend, stop talking nonsense.

Let me show you what the bible says about the righteous:

Matthew 19:17
And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

Luke 1:6
And they were both righteous before God,walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

2 Peter 2:21
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

1 John 2:3
And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

1 John 2:4
He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

1 John 3:22
And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

1 John 3:24
And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

1 John 5:3
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

2 John 1:6
And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.

Revelation 12:17
And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Revelation 14:12
Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus

Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

What do you people not understand about keeping the commandments? Or was John a false teacher?
Why did you remove the very one that will EXPOSE UR INSINCERITY? Now see it clearly herf- 1john 3:22-23-And what so ever we ask we recieve of him bc we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sighp. 23 and THIS IS HIS COMMANDMENT, THAT WE SHOULD BELIEVE ON THE NAME OF HIS SON JESUS CHRIST, AND LOVE ANOTHFR, as he gave us commandment. This place is very clear and untwistable so try again. Jesus said in jn 3:16 that the only thing that is required for a man to have eternal life is 'believe' in him, mk 16:17 this sign shall follow them that believe, jn 7:38 if anyman believe in me, out of him shall flow rivers of living water etc etc etc and Jesus never said "if any man keep Moses laws, if u check matt 5 he even preach against the laws of Moses, we are Christians set free by Jesus, we never had and will never have anything to do with judaism.

So what does this mean?
1 John 2:4
"He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him".

Or what does this mean?

"Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments."

Did God give the Torah, or was it Moses? YOu talk like Moses invented the word. jokers

How can you say you believe, and not keep His commandments?

"conversion from judaism"?
The Jews believed in Yahweh, as you do. Or is it Paul you serve, I forget.
The only thing he left behind was keeping the traditions of the elders, which was NOT the law. Paul kept the law. That is all.
The gospel of grace, according to you, is that Christ paid for your sins, and as a result, it is no longer defined as sin, technically, if you steal/kill/commit adultery. Well done

You say the jews should keep the law. Peter and the other apostles should teach the law to the Jews who believed in Christ, while Paul taught a different gospel to the gentiles.
Well, I am not a gentile, so I'm sure you will understand that I prefer to keep the commandments as best I can.

Painful as it is to read his writings, how does Goshen account for his own view? Or even Drummaboy?

Can you just imagine Paul entering a synagogue to tell them it is well and they can eat pork. They would have hung him. They (Pharisees) tested Jesus' knowledge of Torah, an they could find no fault in his answers, because he knew the law and kept it.

I know you are completely possessed by the same spirit you described in your response no wonder you behave like a man of:
