I agree Bob, that is extremely important. In fact it is so important it is a life or death issue.I think the most important thing the Bible does is quote God and Jesus. Also it puts their quotes into context.

Could that even be a possibility Amad?Let us however keep our ears open to hear His voice when he speaks to us. He may do so through the very words originally spoken to those early apostles. Who are we to limit God/
..There is no old and new testament, the Bible is complete..

I don't remember any saying of Jesus about gays or witches. But I remember very well Paul saying:But the Old and New T's are often very different in places, for example the Old says to kill witches, gays and adulteresses etc, but the New says not to do that. (...)

So you think that God wants fetuses who have zero chance to survive outside the womb to die an agonizing death? Do you think that He wants women to uselessly die because of ectopic pregnancies?I don't remember any saying of Jesus about gays or witches. But I remember very well Paul saying:
1 Cor. 6:9 (...) Do not be misled. Those who are sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, men who submit to homosexual acts, men who practice homosexuality, 10 thieves, greedy people, drunkards, revilers, and extortioners will not inherit God’s Kingdom.
The Christians knew of many things that they should not do because they had fully learned that in the ancient nation that belonged to God as a special possession in the past, He eliminated those who had such practices.
Since Christians worship the same God as the Jews (Rom. 3:29), they do not want to do things that they already know HE does not like. Do you think God has changed his likes and dislikes because of what men wishes?
Think on this example: In the entire NT you will not find a note that refers directly to abortion. However, in the laws given to the ancient nation of God there were specific laws in this regard. Obviously, knowing that Jehovah told his people that taking care of the child in a woman's womb was a matter that they had to be responsible for (Exo. 25:22,23), indicates that he would never be in favor of abortion... although the NT does not say so specifically.
So: how is it important for Christians to know the history and laws of Israel recorded in the OT when they were the people of God?
The same about witches.
To be frank, I DON'T have to have a point !So??? What is your point?
I AM .Are you among the few who are leaving the earth Ket? Fantastic! Give us a little heads up on what you will do there.
This was the finish of Mr.Gwin's quote from a different translation, for those who can't COMPREHEND what is written.I love the full on** ARCHAIC** King James Version better, View attachment 28441
Snarky & I thought beneath you.Are you among the few who are leaving the earth Ket? Fantastic! Give us a little heads up on what you will do there.
Since Jesus is God the Son, what He said about homosexuals (not "gays') and witches is clearly spelled out in the Bible (given by God the Holy Spirit). The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are always in perfect accord.I don't remember any saying of Jesus about gays or witches. But I remember very well Paul saying:
I have read a lot of nonsensical posts, and this one clearly fits that category. What is the point of saying that you don't have a point?To be frank, I DON'T have to have a point !
Lots of folks write or yap w/o having or ever getting to their, yours, mine or any point.
Ya know what,I responded out of courtesy to you but you don't deserve common courtesy.I have read a lot of nonsensical posts, and this one clearly fits that category. What is the point of saying that you don't have a point?
Good bye. Not interested in any more of your foolishness.Ya know what,I responded out of courtesy to you but you don't deserve common courtesy.
Ignore for you and your aggressive attitude, need meds,get some, don't need meds then stop taking them.
A jerk is a jerk is a jerk....
Bye bye now
The Bible is a whole, and it clearly states that Christ was the end of the law sir. You are very correct we do not kill witches, gays, adulteresses any longer under the law of the Christ. In fact if we were still under law, I would have been killed by my brothers for apostasy. That is the truth. How thankful we can be to be released from the curse of the law, yes sir, the Bible actually calls that God given law a curse.But the Old and New T's are often very different in places, for example the Old says to kill witches, gays and adulteresses etc, but the New says not to do that.

No sir, you said it correctly the first time, it is not possible for us to limit God the question you asked me, and that I answered. Although the version you posted stated that point blank, this is where examining other verses can help in understanding: Ps 78:41 And they turned again and tempted God, And provoked the Holy One of Israel.ASV
Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel." Psalm 78:41
And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible. Mark 10:27
I AM .
So I must be one of the few having found the strait gate and narrow way also.
Sorry, you plan on NOT going. This speaks VERY LOUDLY TO ME ABOUT YOUR STATUS MR.GWIN.
After earth we will never meet again !
I will be worshipping & glorifying My God !!!!!
