Keep deceiving yourself .its people like you that condemned fellowers here on earth and you are worst than the devil itself.
No man has/can up hold 1% of Gods law expection of Christ
Are you then saying the Lord was wrong when He said, "If you would enter life, keep the commandments?"- John 19:17. Was Jesus giving us an impossible task when He made this statement? No! Here's why. A question was asked, "Who then can be saved?"- Matthew 19:25. (The disciples, just like you, were astonished when Jesus taught that they must keep the Law if they will enter life. Hence, why the question was asked). In response, Jesus answered, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible", verse 26. Here you have it. The Law can be kept, but of course with the help of God.

The Apostle Paul said, "The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all men everywhere to repent"- Acts 17:30. Indeed, you have no excuse whatsoever not to keep the Law, not even ignorance, because the truth has been laid bare before you.

And lastly, James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, has this to say, " Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin"- James 4:17. May the Lord help us.

Has an admonition from the Lord becomes frustration & anger?

Then therefore, "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the TRUTH, for there is no TRUTH in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and father of lies"- John 8:44. Indeed, the devil and his followers are liars, and have never welcome the truth!

Very well did Timothy prophesied of you, "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears"- 2 Timothy 4:3. Yes! You can't bear sound doctrine for your ears are heavy, itching to hear the lusts of your heart, for which reason you seek and look out for teachers to teach or say what you want to hear, not what you need to hear!

Again, I offer you the advise of Apostle Peter in Acts 8:22.

Hello! Has the word of truth been reduced to an amusement that makes you want to laugh your heart out, scoffer?

The psalmist wrote, "Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners (lawbreakers), nor sits in the seat of SCOFFERS"- Psalm 1:1.

Also, the Apostle Peter has this to say, "Knowing this first of all, that SCOFFERS will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own SINFUL desires"- 2 Peter 3:3.

Here's an advise from the Apostle, "Repent, therefore, of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you"- Acts 8:22.

Lamentations 2:9
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the Lord.

This is Israel wailing that the Law is no more, Jesus says the summary of the law is to love the Lord God completely, and love your neighbour as yourself. Love is the fulfilment of the commandment.

Yet you see complete lack of understanding among folks who continur to strenuously insist that the Law cannot/shouldnot be observed.

If you do not observe the law, you are a zombie hecause the Spirit of God is not in you. You cannot love, and you remain a beast.

Peter advised that there were a few things difficult to understand in Paul's teachings, and warned against those who would twist these things to their own injury.
Right! Op has talked excessively on love and even ascribed a law, "law of love" to it. Yet, he doesn't understand a thing about the said subject!

Indeed, love is one of the most trumpeted subject around the world, by both religious and political leaders, yet you find love nowhere! Why? Because the knowledge of the subject and its origin has been rejected!

It is really disheartening that a lot of false and misleading doctrines are now being preached today. Satan and his evil agents are really working tirelessly, trying to lead men into disobedience to GOD's law.

I indeed pray that the Holy Spirit will enlighten him to recognise and accept the truth so clearly expressed in the word of GOD.
Yeah bro. You see, Apostle Paul actually talked of the "...spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience", EPHESIANS 2:2. Truly, this spirit is really at work!

Fine! We're free from the Law. Then lets kill, steal, fornicate, commit adultery, worship any god of our choice, etc. After all, hasn't the Law been done away, and we, freed from its penalty? Isn't the Law not binding any more? What delusion!

Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ wrote, "For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a LICENSE for unrighteousness and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord", JUDE 1:4. Indeed, these ungodly people have turned the grace of God into a license to break the Law.

You know the saddest thing? They don't want to repent! But always looking for Scriptural verses and chapters to quote out of context, in order to support their already preconceived ideas. So sad.

Is there no more law?

Also, what you mean by "eternal sins"?
Pray for the delusional mind! How can a supposed Christian say there's no more sin? Because saying that the Law has been done away, it therefore mean that there's no more sin! "For where there's no Law, sin is not imputed!"

That's same thing with what I said; that sin is a trespass against some set of rules and standard.

Transgression is ONLY considered when there is law.

Now, I have given verses to prove that Jesus abolished the law. That's why paul said that sin is not imputed on a man when there is no law!

Rom 5:13;"13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is NOT IMPUTED when there is no law."

Anybody who believes in jesus, his eternal sins shall be forgiven and justified by the death of christ.
His sins shall God remember no more because it is not be imputed on him.
Excuse me, you son of lawlessness! Wouldn't you stop twisting the word of truth? That Scripture clearly stated that sin is the transgression of the law, not some set of rules and standard!

Foolishly enough, you've admitted that sin is only imputed when there is Law, but the Law has been done away. In essence, you're saying that there's no more sin! For since the Law has been taken away, then sin too is gone! What delusion!!!

Yes, laws were done away, and those laws were the ritualistic laws of the Levitical priesthood, e.g, slaughtering of animals during the passover, circumcision, etc, which the bible called "works of the law" in GALATIANS 2:16. But the Ten commandment stands forever, because it is perfect, holy, righteous and good! (Psalm 19:7, Romans 7:12). How can a Law described in this manner be abolished, why? Repent!!!

Sorry man, you seem to be very blind!

You guys will always quote matt 5:17-18, without knowing what the verse means!

Matt 5:17-18;"Matthew 5:17-18 Amplified Bible (AMP) “Do not think that I came to do away with or
undo the Law [of Moses] or the [writings of
the] Prophets; I did not come to destroy but to
fulfill. For I assure you and most solemnly say
to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the
smallest letter or stroke [of the pen] will pass
from the Law UNTIL ALL THINGS ARE FULFILLED"

What jesus was saying was that he will not abolish the law UNTIL all things are fulfilled.

In other words, when all things are fulfilled, then the law can be abolished.

Note: all things were fulfilled at the ressurection of Jesus. After his resurrection see what he told his disciples in Luke 24:44.

Read below my 37 verses proving it:
The law is an unbearable yoke. (Acts 15:10)

The law reveals sin but cannot fix it. (Romans 3:20)

If the law worked then faith would be irrelevant. (Romans 4:14)

The law brings wrath upon those who follow it. (Romans 4:15)

The purpose of the law was to increase sin. (Romans 5:20)

Christians are not under the law. (Romans 6:14)

Christians have been delivered from the law. (Romans 7:1-6)

The law is good, perfect and holy but cannot help you be good, perfect or holy. (Romans 7:7-12)

The law which promises life only brings death through sin. (Romans 7:10)

The law makes you sinful beyond measure. (Romans 7:13)

The law is weak. (Romans 8:2-3)

The strength of sin is the law (1 Corinthians 15:56)

The law is a ministry of death. (2 Corinthians 3:7)

The law is a ministry of condemnation. (2 Corinthians 3:9)

The law has no glory at all in comparison with the New Covenant. (2 Corinthians 3:10)

The law is fading away. (2 Corinthians 3:11)

Anywhere the law is preached it produces a mind-hardening and a heart-hardening veil. (2 Corinthians 3:14-15)

The law justifies nobody. (Galatians 2:16)

Christians are dead to the law. (Galatians 2:19)

The law frustrates grace. (Galatians 2:21)

To go back to the law after embracing faith is “stupid”.(Galatians 3:1)

The law curses all who practice it and fail to do it perfectly. (Galatians 3:10)

The law has nothing to do with faith. (Galatians 3:11-12)

The law was a curse that Christ redeemed us from. (Galatians 3:13)

The law functioned in God’s purpose as a temporary covenant from Moses till John the Baptist announced Christ. (Galatians 3:16 & 19, also see… Matthew 11:12-13, Luke 16:16)

If the law worked God would have used it to save us. (Galatians 3:21)

The law was our prison. (Galatians 3:23)

The law makes you a slave like Hagar. (Galatians 4:24)

Christ has abolished the law which was a wall of hostility (Ephesians 2:15)

Paul considered everything the law gained him as “skybalon” which is Greek for “poop”. (Philippians
3:4-cool


The law is only good if used in the right context. (1 Timothy 1:cool (see next verse for the context) It was made for the unrighteous but not for the righteous. (1 Timothy 1:9-10)

The law is weak, useless and makes nothing perfect. (Hebrews 7:18-19)

God has found fault with it and created a better covenant, enacted on better promises. (Hebrews
8:7-cool

It is obsolete, growing old and ready to vanish. (Hebrews 8:13)

It is only a shadow of good things to come and will never make someone perfect. (Hebrews 10:1)

So, you should know that both of you are on the same track of heresy!

Christianity EtcRe: Should Believers Observe The Law? by Splinz(m): 7:19pm On Apr 29, 2016
Op, stop misleading people with heresies and twisted Scriptures. You simply do not know what you're saying. How can you say a Law described as "perfect", PSALM 19:7, has been done away or annulled? Listen, "So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good", ROMANS 7:12. Just when did this righteous Law became unrighteous? Again, the Lord said this, "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them", MATTHEW 5:17. Surely, the Law has not been done away, but the lawless one has made professing Christians believed the contrary.

Law of Moses or God’s Law?
"The Ten Commandments were never referred to as the law of Moses, but rather the law of God. First, understand this! The law of Moses consisted of (1) the civil laws, which were statutes and judgments that Moses relayed to the people from God, recorded in Exodus 21-23 and in the remaining books of the law, and (2) the ritualistic laws (or Greek: ergon) that were added later, summarized in Hebrews 9:10. They were ordinances regulating the job of the tribe of Levi in temple service, sacrifices (Leviticus 1-7) and associated functions. The word ergon means “works,” as in the “works of the law” (such as in Galatians 2:16). This refers to the labor involving the Levitical rituals that were abolished by Christ’s sacrifice.
The Ten Commandments were already in force long before they were officially given to Israel at Mount Sinai and this will be demonstrated. In fact, these commandments have existed since the creation of man. The Ten Commandments were never part of the law of Moses (addressed more fully later) or the Levitical sacrificial system. The civil laws and sacrifices were based on God’s commands, which constitute the core of His laws. Thus, the Ten Commandments precede and transcend any and every lesser law or practice based upon them—statutes, judgments, precepts, and ordinances.
The Ten Commandments are God’s spiritual laws (Rom. 7:12, 14). They are just as active as the physical laws of gravity and inertia. Just as breaking physical laws results in physical consequences, breaking spiritual laws results in spiritual consequences.
Sin Defined
Most human beings either do not know of or do not like to be reminded of I John 3:4, which defines sin: “Whosoever commits sin transgresses also THE LAW: for sin is the transgression of THE LAW.” As the subject develops, you will come to see (in stages) the central connection between sin and the law.
Romans 6:23 states that “the wages of SIN is death.” Romans 5 explains, “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of Him that was to come)” (vs. 12-14).
In other words, Adam sinned. Sin is not imputed—does not apply—where there is no law (carefully read Romans 4:15). Death reigned from Adam to Moses. (Remember, death is the penalty for sin, which is defined as the transgression of the law.) The only way that Adam and his descendants could sin—break God’s spiritual law—is if God’s Law already existed! Without this law in place, no one could be guilty of sin.
Instead of rejecting sin, modern religionists reject the law. They view the law as a burden—they want to be free from keeping it. But notice the key lessons found in Romans 7:7: “What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. No, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, You shall not covet.” It is not the law that is at fault—and Paul is clearly citing one of the Ten Commandments—but sin. God reveals to us what sin is. He does this by His perfect law. On his own, man cannot discover God’s perfect law. God has to reveal and teach it to us". (Culled from: The Ten Commandments- Nailed to the cross or required for salvation?, by David C. Park).

So, there's nothing like "Law Of Love". There's no other way to express love except through the Law, yes! The Ten commandment is divided into two. The first four teaches man how to love his Creator, while the remaining six teaches man how to love his fellow man. It is on this note that it is written, "Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law", ROMANS 13:10. Cleared! You can only talk of love when you've fulfilled (keep) the Law.

Finally, " The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the WHOLE duty of man", ECCLESIASTES 12:13.
