What is sin according to God's Word? Sin is the transgression of His LAW (1 John 3:4). This is New Testament. Apparently the Law was still applicable after the death of Christ. Every author of the NT observed the Law (Torah), yes, even Paul who many twist his writings to their own destruction (2 Peter 3:16).

Every author of the NT, even Christ himself observed the Sabbath, abstained from unclean foods and observed the Feast Days.
We in the church have been taught that the sabbath is Sunday, anything we eat is clean, and to worship false gods like Ishtar (easter) and Nimrod (christmas). These are satanic folly days, rooted in Babylon worship. It's time for the deception to end. Yah is honoring those who are waking up in these end times to follow His laws, His statutes and His commandments. They are good and perfect and changeth not. Amen.

Particularly 31:36-37, and all of its precepts. I noticed you used the word "Israelis". There is no such thing as "Israelis". The Bible carries no such word. Abba father gave His chosen the name ISRAELITES which is in the Bible. Based on your reply, you still haven't grasped that the people occupying the Holy Land are gentiles/ "Israelis", NOT ISRAELITES. "Israelis" observe the satanic Talmud, Israelites observe the TORAH (Law) because it was entrusted to them as a nation from the times of Moses as a springboard to spread the gospel of Christ to the world. Big difference. Satan always uses a counterfeit (Israelis) to imitate the real (Israelites).

The Law ALWAYS pointed to Christ. He was literally the walking Torah. This is what he meant when he said he didn't come to abolish the Law, but he FULFILLED it. His thoughts, deeds, actions and words, embodied the Law. If we're to follow him, then we should embody the Law as well.

The death, burial and resurrection of Yahshua, the shed blood of the Lamb is the BETTER COVENANT. He represented a permanent, spiritual and perpetual sacrifice that through him is the remission of our sins...and not the imperfect blood of animals which was only temporary...a shadow of the permanent blood atonement of Christ.

THIS DOES NOT MEAN THE LAW IS DONE AWAY WITH.

This does not mean the Sabbath -- which is a weekly dress rehearsal of the coming Millennial Reign rest is done away with.
This does not mean abstaining from unclean foods which harms our bodies is done away with.
This does not mean the Feast Days, which points to the Death, Burial, Resurrection of Christ (Passover), the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (Pentecost), the Glorious Return of the Lion of Judah (Feast of Trumpets), his Judgement on the nations (Day of Atonement) and Kingship (Feast of Tabernacles) is done away with.

God told us that these are HIS FEASTS...not the feasts of the Jews, gentiles, Israelites, the church, etc...but HIS FEASTS (Lev 23:2).

providence338:


Everything I've quoted was from the Bible. So no, I did not contradict myself. This is simply a matter of understanding what the Bible is saying. All the pieces must fit. Paul EXHORTED the Law, as the Bible proves by his own words and actions. He never opposed the Law, which is what the modern churches are insisting. So let's took a closer look at why there's so much confusion about his writings....

First thing to understand is Paul's audience is VERY DIFFERENT from the audience of the other apostles. Paul was appointed by Yah to be an apostle to the gentile nations in the previous book of Acts. The tone of his letters/writings vastly differ from the apostles whose audience were other Israelites who already had a firm cultural, historical and contextual grasp of the Law..the Law was more than just a religion to the Israelites, this was their culture.

This explains why John said the commandments (Law) are a GOOD thing...they aren't burdensome (1 John 5:3), and this is how we show our love and obedience to Yahshua and the Father (John 14:21). James referred to the Law as "perfect" (Jam 1:25) and "royal" (2:8 ) if one fulfills it as Christ did. The Israelites needed an example of how to properly follow the Law...and Yahshua set that example not only for them, but for ALL of us.

Romans Chapter 14 is Paul's gentle rebuke to the Law-familiar Israelites who were now worshipping in their synagogues side-by-side with NEWLY CONVERTED GENTILE ROMANS INTO THE FAITH. These gentiles didn't just accept Yahshua and that was it...scripture proves they were to be taught the Law every sabbath as they grew INTO THE FAITH (read all of Acts 15, esp v.19-21). These are those who Paul said were "weak in the faith", and the Israelites shouldn't judge them or be a stumbling block as they grow stronger INTO THE FAITH. You can imagine how a Roman eating otherwise clean food but sacrificed to Diana would cause confusion. Or how a Greek vegetarian or former drunkard would be confused on how to properly partake of the meat-and-wine-laden Passover. If I as a Hausa converted INTO THE FAITH, but still esteemed the Durbar Festival of my ancestors, Paul is saying this shouldn't be a point of contention since I'm still "weak in the faith". A stronger gentile would likely eventually forsake any ancestral festivals since they're likely rooted in pagan worship. This is where wisdom comes in for those stronger in the faith (Israelites) to be patient and long-suffering as this poses a huge clash of very different cultures who want serve Yahshua but still esteem their own cultural observances. So no, the Sabbath, which is HOW THE GENTILES WERE GOING TO LEARN THE WAY OF CHRIST IN THE FIRST PLACE (Acts 15:21), isn't the esteemed days spoken of here. Unsanctified food like swine isn't even on the table here. "All" in this chapter doesn't mean "all", is consumption of human, rat or cockroach "clean"? All the food and drink mentioned here are all within what God had already sanctified as CLEAN, Paul is not giving the gentiles license to eat OUTSIDE OF THE FAITH.


Regarding Matthew 15...read from the beginning up to v.20. Yahshua is rebuking stiff-necked pharisees WHO NEVER OBSERVED TORAH. THEY OBSERVED TRADITIONS OF MEN (v. 3, 6, 9). Big difference. If you pay attention, you'll see that Yahshua actually QUOTED THE LAW AND HIGHLIGHTED HOW THE PHARISEES WERE BREAKING IT in those verses.

I was always taught the pharisees were burdensome law keepers. Careful examination of the scriptures show the exact opposite...the passages in v. 3-6 is just one of many throughout the Bible which prove that they never upheld the Law in the first place. They were teaching their own traditions, which were leading the Israelites astray (v.14). This is why Christ was needed to show them (us) HOW to uphold the Law, in truth, love and righteousness, something the pharisees never had.

you need to be care full of what you preach madam. you seem like an intelligent person. Christ should be your focus not this old laws of moses you are preaching.

Galatians 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Galatians 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

Galatians 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

Galatians 3:23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Does it mean the Apostles were wrong to tell the Gentile Christians not to observe the Mosaic Laws as per Acts 15?

Acts 15 1599 Geneva Bible (GNV)

1 Then came down certain from Judea, and taught the brethren, saying, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.

2 And when there was great dissension, and disputation by Paul and Barnabas against them, they ordained that Paul and Barnabas, and certain others of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the Apostles and Elders about this question.

3 Thus being brought forth by the Church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles, and they brought great joy unto all the brethren.

4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the Church, and of the Apostles and Elders, and they declared what things God had done by them.

5 But said they, certain of the sect of the Pharisees, which did believe, rose up, saying that it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the Law of Moses.

6 Then the Apostles and Elders came together to look to this matter.

7 And when there had been great disputation, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Ye men and brethren, ye know that a good while ago, among us God chose out me, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the Gospel, and believe.

8 And God which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, in giving unto them the holy Ghost even as he did unto us.

9 And he put no difference between us and them, after that by faith he had purified their hearts.

10 Now therefore, why tempt ye God, to lay a yoke on the disciples’ necks, which neither our fathers, nor we were able to bear?

11 But we believe, through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved, even as they do.

12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and heard Barnabas and Paul, which told what signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles by them.

13 And when they held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me.

14 Simeon hath declared, how God first did visit the Gentiles, to take of them a people unto his Name.

15 And to this agree the words of the Prophets, as it is written,

16 After this I will return, and will build again the Tabernacle of David, which is fallen down, and the ruins thereof will I build again, and I will set it up.

17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles upon whom my Name is called, saith the Lord which doeth all these things.

18 From the beginning of the world, God knoweth all his works.

19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them of the Gentiles that are turned to God,

20 But that we send unto them, that they abstain themselves from filthiness of idols, and fornication, and that is strangled, and from blood.

21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, seeing he is read in the Synagogues every Sabbath day.

22 Then it seemed good to the Apostles and Elders with the whole Church to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas: to wit, Judas whose surname was Barsabas, and Silas, which were chief men among the brethren,

23 And wrote letters by them after this manner, THE APOSTLES, and the Elders, and the brethren, Unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch, and in Syria, and in Cilicia, send greeting.

24 Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us, have troubled you with words, and cumbered your minds, saying, Ye must be circumcised and keep the Law: to whom we gave no such commandment,

25 It seemed therefore good to us, when we were come together with one accord, to [send] chosen men unto you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul.

26 Men that have given up their lives for the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

27 We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, which shall also tell you the same things by mouth.

28 For it seemed good to the holy Ghost, and to us, to lay no more burden upon you, than these necessary things.

29 That is, that ye abstain from things offered to idols, and blood, and that that is strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

30 Now when they were departed, they came to Antioch, and after that they had assembled the multitude, they delivered the Epistle,

31 And when they had read it, they rejoiced for the consolation.

32 And Judas and Silas being Prophets, exhorted the brethren with many words, and strengthened them.

33 And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace of the brethren unto the Apostles.

34 Notwithstanding Silas thought good to abide there still.

35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching with many others the word of the Lord.

36 But after certain days, Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us return and visit our brethren in every city, where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do.

37 And Barnabas counseled to take with them John, called Mark.

38 But Paul thought it not meet to take him unto their company, which departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.

39 Then were they so stirred, that they departed asunder one from the other, so that Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus.

40 And Paul chose Silas and departed, being commended of the brethren unto the grace of God.

41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, establishing the Churches.

Greetings OkCornel

Please see my reply above to EMILOSTAY2. I explain the CONTEXT in which Paul wrote Acts 15.

A sect of Israelite pharisees (who the Bible says kept NOT the law) were going around in their pride commanding gentiles who knew NOTHING of the Hebrew laws, statutes and commandments to go get circumcised IN ORDER TO BE SAVED (Act 15:1).

That's not only unscriptural, it was undoing the hard work of the apostles, hindering the spread of the gospel by causing confusion. Paul's rebuke letter to the Galatia church is just one of many examples.

Acts 15 highlights the council held by the apostles on how to address this growing concern.

Paul here is saying that the gentiles need not circumcision (or any works for that matter) to be saved.
He reiterated they needed only GRACE (Acts 15:11) so no man can boast (Eph 2:9). These pharisees were only interested in boasting.

After the gentiles convert to the faith (through GRACE NOT WORKS), THEY WERE INDEED TAUGHT THE LAW OF MOSES.
You seem to be unaware that abstaining from fornication, food sacrificed to idols, food strangled, etc IS IN THE LAW!
Moreover, I notice in your post how you[b] DID NOT [/b]highlight how the gentiles are to be TAUGHT THE LAW EVERY SABBATH (Acts 15:21).

Just as we're taught the Word every Sunday in modern churches, how else do you think the gentile believers were to grow in their faith?
If the law is done away with, by what standards are we to be judged by?
There was no "New Testament" during the times of the apostles. What documents, standards, statutes and codes of conduct do you think was observed by the early church?

Greetings EMILO2STAY,

4 months ago, I was in the middle of posting a line-by-line response to your post when I found myself going into labor haha
I now have a 4month old bouncing baby boy, and he's been keeping me quite busy all this while. I wanted to respond now that I have some time.. my lengthy reply has since vanished but I'll try to summarize.

In short, the hypocritical pharisees preached a false works-based salvation gospel to the newly minted gentile church of Galatia.
These are the same pharisees you mentioned in your previous post about Matthew 15.

Remember, Jesus strongly rebuked the pharisees, NOT BECAUSE THEY KEPT THE LAW, BUT THEY IN FACT BROKE IT.
I showed you scriptural proof of how Jesus said the pharisees:

TRANSGRESSED the law (Matt 15:3)
Nullified God's law by their own commandments (Matt 15:6)
Didn't teach God's commandments, but commandments of men (Matt 15:9)

This is the same sect which preached throughout the new churches that in order to be saved, men needed to be circumcised (Acts 15:1).
This is wrong. Salvation comes by grace from Jesus alone (Acts 15:11).
The church Paul established in Galatia which originally understood it took FAITH to receive salvation, reverted to this false doctrine of salvation by WORKS (circumcision).
The entire book of Galatians is Paul's rebuke to the church for receiving the pharisees works-based message for salvation (circumcision), instead of a faith-based one.

THIS DOES NOT MEAN THE GALATIANS WERE TO DO AWAY WITH THE LAW. PAUL NEVER PREACHED THAT, AND HE WOULD REBUKE YOU AND THE MODERN CHURCH FOR MISCHARACTERIZING HIS MESSAGE. HE SIMPLY PREACHED GRACE IS WHAT SAVES YOU, NOT THE LAW.

We don't observe the law to attain salvation. We observe the law BECAUSE of our salvation. Do you understand now?

I would likewise challenge you to be VERY CAREFUL for relegating the MOST HIGH'S LAWS, STATUTES AND COMMANDMENTS to just a "thing". The law existed long before Moses (Gen 26:5), and shall continue well into eternity (Psalm 119:160).

Now where are the scriptures where Christ said we should celebrate his birthday?
And that his birthday is Dec 25?
Or that Sunday is the Sabbath?
