So, what you are saying is that God tormented and killed people in the Old Testament because they ignored and disobeyed commandments he knew they couldn’t keep?
Just meditate on that for a moment.
If the logical madness of that assertion doesn’t move you; what kind of God are you serving man?
A God who cruelly punished people who were unable to accomplish a task forced on them?
Is this what Once Saved Always Saved/Eternal Security does to people?
God help us!
God "created" man, by FORMING a man's BODY.
That has not changed...God still Forms every Body.
God "makes" Formed Body's Alive, via His Breath.
Since "after Adam and Eve" that God called:
BY the Same Name, (ADAM), Male and Female, Man and Woman, Husband and Wife, father and mother...
Every Living man-KIND of thing is "reproduced" from a "man's SEED" fertilizing a "woman's" seed.
The thing about seeds, is every Seed, God CREATED, God has given that Seed, its own body, that He forms.
(1 Cor 15:38)
Seeds, by Gods Natural design, "must itself Die to cause reproduction."
Nuts lose their shell and can rot. Seeds of fruit will rot. Sperm becomes waste.
But seeds planted, break open, become a reproduced thing, of the KIND of thing the SEED came from.
Tree seeds become trees. Herb seeds become herbs, animals seeds become animals, human seeds become humans.
And some humans, can receive Gods seed. It requires no fertalization or dirt, and it doesn't die. But it must be Planted Within a man.
And the very place God Plants "His Seed in a man"...IS in a man's NEW Heart,
(Ezek 18:31)
that First be a Heart, God "makes" anew, which is called: Circumcision of the Heart.
The knowledge of Circumcision of the Heart, was revealed in the OT.
(Lev 26:41)
Further expound knowledge in the NT.
(Rom 2:29)
And the "Understanding", comes from God.
The Human Seed, its Flesh Body crucified, dying with Christ ...is the Spiritual Death of that corrupt seed...Prepared thus to receive the Seed of God, that rebirths a man's natural spirit to a Heavenly ever lasting spirit.
Which is A seed that never dies.
And the spirit of man is the man's truth in his heart...first born from a natural man's seed, gaining men's truths...then from Gods Seed, gaining Gods Truth.
Thus says Scripture For those IN Christ...
John 14:17 the Spirit of Truth...
Those "OF" the world---are still seeking, finding and following the World's Truth...
Those IN Christ are seeking, finding, following, Gods Truth.
And the Evidence of WHO is following WHO is not a big mystery to those ...Accomplished "NOT OF the world".
Glory to God,
Taken
