Acehart: Going by your explanation, now that we have an understanding of righteousness, do you still think that the 10 commandments would have the same effect as under the law? |

Maximus69: You are right sir, we are too biased on it. |

Elizersalifu: Hi, James still refers to the occupation of the believer in the Law of God in his letter, yet he was not under the old covenant (James 1:25). P.S: Daniel 9:9-10 shows two laws existed under the Old Covenant - The Law of God and the Mosaic Law. When we look at Philemon 1:14: but without your consent I did not want to do anything, so that your goodness would not be, in effect, by compulsion but of your own free will, I would like to imagine Paul having God’s heart in that he didn’t want Onesimus to make a righteous act by compulsion; why? The next verse reveals that he had a long term vision of unity between Master and servant which will only ensue by the effect of free will. In Psalms 119, the psalmists speaks of how he delights to keep God’s Law with his heart (Psalm 119:10). This is in contrast to the murmuring we see by those who kept the Mosaic Law by compulsion (Malachi 3:13-15). The psalmist was under the Old covenant yet the Ten Commandments had effect on his heart by faith (Psalm 119:32-38) - it was a Law to be done liberally (Psalm 119:45). In the new covenant, the Law of God is referred to as the Law of liberty. (James 1:25). Colossians 2 shows is that in new covenant, there is an annulment of the marriage between the two laws. The bond between them is broken by Christ’s atonement. While the law of Moses died with Christ (Col.2:14); the Law of God lives - not to be observed in rituals but in the heart. Therefore, it has the same effect as it did in the old covenant - it caused one to faint at his weakness and whole heartedly cry for salvation (Psa 119:5-6, 94) - this was disciple’s dilemma - "Then who can be saved?" Romans 3:27 shows us that we are under a new law - The law of Faith - a pseudonym for the Law of God. So the purpose of the Ten Commandments is to create a sense of helplessness and arouse a cry for a helper; because no man can keep the Law of God without a Christ - This is the effect that existed from the time of yore till this present time. I may not have presented my point succinctly, but you can fill in the blanks. |

Acehart:Re-read the verses. Paul never encourages anyone to keep the sabbath. That would be in direct contradiction to what Jesus Himself taught His disciples about the Sabbath. Acehart:These are entirely separate laws on the book and exist alongside the 10 commandments. Let the truth speak for itself, will you? Acehart:No, it does not. Acehart:Wrong! You are still attempting to separate the 10 commandments from the mosaic law but that cannot work because, as we already see, Moses' Book of Law comprised of all the Laws that were given to Moses, including the 10 commandments, which only happen to be the first set. That said, when it was read to the mixed multitude, it included the laws that God applied to foreigners. Fast forward to when Ezra read the same Laws to those in Jerusalem, there was obviously also a mixed multitude there to recieve the message. Acehart:I don't know what you mean by this. The Spirit of God does not help us keep the 10 commandments, not at all. Because this law is not the law that is written in all our hearts... well, not in mine. |

Here's a close look at one of the four laws mentioned in the book of Acts 15
Concerning the eating of blood See how the issue of concerning the eating of blood is separate from the 10 commandments? |

Acehart:"16And the LORD God commanded him, “You may eat freely from every tree of the garden, 17but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die.”" - Genesis 2:16-17 Acehart, to be frank and honest with you, every word that proceeds from God, in effect, is law essentially, lmao The first law ever issued to man, as regards, acceptable conduct and right behaviour was the law in Genesis 2:16-17 Acehart:"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will grant the right to eat from the tree of life in the paradise of God." - Revelation 2:7 Nous verrons, but except you are into Jewish Kabbalah, contrary to you thinking that the TKGE is Adam, it is not. Fyi, I have an interest however in the pituitary gland and pineal gland relationship with the connection with gigantism (i.e. Nephilim) I am sure you know that by the time we have access back to Eden, the TKGE won't be there but we will have the Tree of life. The reason why the TKGE is be absent, is because it had served its purpose and so therefore has no further need, purpose or use for it to be present in the garden. The TKGE is conspicuously AWOL in Revelation 2:7 and Revelation 22:2. It is true my perspective on narratives, somehow at times, delightfully cycles round and over the TKGE (i.e. yup, as I like to call that the Tree of knowledge of Good & Evil) maybe because I am aware that the TKGE is an enigma to many and one so understood without depth of knowledge. Genesis chapter 3, and its associations with the TKGE, has its own fair share good interesting cases of elusive entendres, polysemous and deep recondite information. |

Romans 7 vs 4-6I found the verse above and felt it would clear the confusion here. Paul, in verse 6, makes a general claim in regard to WRITTEN rules. |

Porter with a Wineskin, by Niko Pirosmani (before 1919) The parable above is what Jesus presented to the Pharisees when questioned on why His, Jesus', disciples did not obey the old covenant commandments in much the same way the disciples of John the Baptist did. |
