No, of course not. What I do teach is that having died to the demands of the law of Moses, we are now commanded to obey a greater law. So instead of "thou shalt not commit adultery with thy neighbor's wife", it's now "don't even have impure thoughts about her." Or instead of "Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy, and do no servile work", it's now "Remember my sabbath rest always, and do no works of the flesh".
David unlawfully ate showbread, yet was justified before God. Some children of Israel in the wilderness only desired to collect manna on the sabbath, and were condemned by God. Yet the priests actually labored on the sabbath and were blameless. Can you explain these contradictions?
I have some questions for you:
1. What "Greater Law" do you refer to and where in Bible can I find "Greater Law"? And where in Bible does it talk about and teach about "doing no works in the flesh"? Bible chapter? Verse?
2. Can you please tell me which of these following Commandments you willfully break and believe we no longer need to obey?
1. You shall have no other gods before me. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
2. You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.
You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
3. You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
4. Remember the sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and made it holy. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
5. Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
6. You shall not murder. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
7. You shall not commit adultery. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
8. You shall not steal. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
9. You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
10. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or
anything that belongs to your neighbor. <--- Do you willfully break this Commandment? Yes or No?
Thank you HeRoseFromTheDead.
BTW, there were no contradictions with David, so there are no contradictions to explain. I was actually horrified you claim to be a Christian yet also claim the Bible contains contradictions. Very shocking, very surprising!
God bless.
