christemmbassey: i av bn avoiding to av direct conversation with u, bc i suspected ur cognitive process, ok, lets see if u're diff from most high. Acts 13:39 "and by him all that BELIEVE are JUSTIFIED from ALL THINGS from which ye could NOT BE JUSTIFIED BY THE LAW OF MOSES". Acts 15:10 "now therefor whv tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the discitples, which neither our fatherr nor we were able to bear? ". Gal 3:2 this only will i learn of you, RECIEVED YE THE SPIRIT BY THE wORKS OF THE LAW, OR BY THE HEARING OF FAITH?, .Gal 3:10 for as many ar are of the works of the LAW Are UNDER CURSE, for it is written, cursed is everyone that continued not in ALL THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW TO DO THEM. 11 but that no man is justified by the LAW in the sight of God, ........ 26 for ye are all the children of God BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. Gal 4:9 but now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements whereuntn ye desire again to be in BONDAGE?, Gal 5:1 stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage, 3:for i testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is debtor to the whole LAW. 4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, who so ever of you are justified ky the LAW, YE ARE FALLEN FROM GRACE. My bros, the law of Moses is bondage, and christians have nothing to do with this bondage wich was actually replaced with grace of God tro faith in Jesus Christ. Stay blessed.

Ok let me address your misquoted verses one by one as I am at work, so be patient:

Acts 13: How dare you use this. Id this not the same chapter that Paul Judaized?
vs 15: 5 And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

verse 39 ""and by him all that BELIEVE are JUSTIFIED from ALL THINGS from which ye could NOT BE JUSTIFIED BY THE LAW OF MOSES"

Your version of belief is different from Hebraic mindset.

James 2: " But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your[a] works, and I will show you my faith by my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?[c] 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? "

He called you foolish by the way, I didn't say it. smiley
Justified by faith, that is good, I believe that too. But how can you say you have faith in Christ if you do not do the works of Christ, or do as he commanded?

The Jews thoguht they were justified by heir works only, not mixing it with faith. They were depending on the law itself for salvation, when we kow no man can keep it perfectly. How you conclude from that, that we do not have to keep His commandments is beyond me. Absurd I tell you. Oh man of lawlessness.

the jews and rulers of tqe synagogue in Antioc in Pisidia were not christians, so Paul was preaching Christ to them with the intention to convert them, when they rejected his message he tnrned to the gentiles who gladly recieved his message, see verse 46.

Ok Mr Devils Embassy, you also quoted Acts 15. Error.
Acts 15:10 "now therefor whv tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the discitples, which neither our fatherr nor we were able to bear? "

lets grab some more scriptures, because we are not fools.

First, a little sidenote, verse 11 "But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they."
I had to put that for Mr 2-gospel shdemidemi, who thinks there are two yardsticks.

Moving on:

20 but that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood. 21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

I wonder where James gets those 3 commandments? THis is James, remember, NOT Paul. He didn't make it up, he got it from the Torah.
Why did he only ask these three things to be observed?
Well, they were to be done immediately. They came with their own pagan practices, these gentiles. It would take some time to learn the whole Torah. It takes over a year to fully convert to Judaism. If you ehar the law every sabbath, how long do you think it will take to hear it all? How long did it take you to read your whole bible?
It is not like today where everyone has a bible at home. Torah scrolls cost one years salary back then, did you knwow that?
Hence he said:

21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

i.e. They will learn the rest of the law as they fellowship with us in synagogue.
