I always felt like it was still significant, but it should be taught alongside the teachings of Christ or moving towards the teachings of Christ. The Sermon on the Mount for example pairs well with teaching on the Team Commandments.

Interesting, as I just complimented you. And it wasn't a lie. Now you just voided #1006

Except that the teachings of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount show the New Covenant commandment that go much deeper to the source of sin, and are no longer just surface commandments. Jesus was able to make these demands, because He was going to be inside us (from the Day of Pentecost on) to make us born again with the divine nature of God who cannot sin. 1 John 3:9

LOL. Well I certainly hope before leaving you read my last post to you, and you are leaving to meditate on the truth of it.

Amen, only the Holy Spirit can make us bold in Christ! We are not ashamed. And yes, how easy, if not walking and living in The Spirit, it is to "deny" Him. We need to be being filled every day with His Spirit...and although you and I do not agree on all things my sister, there is way more that we DO agree on than not
"Not to save us from punishment, but from the need for punishment - SIN."
And the only thing God cannot, will not abide is...sin. Christ took the punishment yes...and repentance on our part needs to become complete, should be our desire! I believe we will still stumble in areas as we grow and when we do... He is ever our advocate!
"My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin.
But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One."
1 John 2:1
God does not change, but His covenants do...
Pro 26:20, Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.

How many people have I rescued from Legalism? I’ll find out when I get to Heaven at the Bema Seat where Rewards will be passed out.I already know of a few from other Forums I have been on.....maybe even YOU will come around some day....
You are no different than any other Modern- Day Judaizer.....you are Blind as you go about Adding to Paul’s Gospel Of Grace...
It’s a great thing to “ run around and do good”........ in fact, it is the reason God created us —- “ to do good works and carry the burdens of others” ......all I am saying is it does not save , nor does it “ keep” one Saved —— Faith in the Shed Blood Plus Nothing accomplishes “ That”. Good Works flow naturally from one who is Saved...don’t put the Cart before the horse is what I maintain....
James can describe “ Religion” all he wants.....he does NOT say religion gets one to Heaven....
Btw......you “ are” selling something.....Paul described it as a “Perverted Gospel” and you are “ Accursed “ ( damned by God) if you teach it ......I hope Newbies will read Galatians where all of this is clearly pointed out.....Don’t live out your Christian Walk “ Fallen From Grace”. At the very least, read Galatians 5 and discover what it means .....it’s probably the-opposite of what you have been taught....

Interesting that you have given up keeping the Sabbath, as that is an outside work.

MATT.7 [22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?[23] And then will I profess unto them, I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.
So who are these people God does not know? Its they who practice lawlessness. Those who made Gods law void.
JEREMIAH 16 [19] O Lord, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, THE GENTILES SHALL COME UNTO THEE FROM THE ENDS OF THE EARTH, AND SHALL SAY, SURELY OUR FATHERS HAVE INHERITED LIES, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
Jer.16 is a “Day of the Lord” scripture as is Matt.7. The “many” Gentiles have inherited lies. No profit! Why no profit?
ISAIAH 48 [17] Thus saith THE LORD, THY REDEEMER, the Holy One of Israel; I AM THE LORD THY GOD WHICH TEACHETH THEE TO PROFIT, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.[18] O THAT THOU HADST HEARKENED TO MY COMMANDMENTS! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
Whose your Redeemer? Profit! The 10 commandments. Most gentiles ignore Gods 4th commandment.

1JOHN2 [3] AND HEREBY WE DO KNOW THAT WE KNOW HIM, IF WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS.[4] He that saith, i know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.[5] But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
Theres the people that know God
We are not under the law (Romans 6:14) are dead to the law (Romans 7:4, Galatians 2:19) and are delivered from the law (Romans 7:6) as believers in Christ.
I would contend that this is as concerning condemnation...
For it is clear from other scripture that as believers, we are still governed by the law (Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16, Romans 8:7, Romans 8:4, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6; Romans 5:5).
More specifically, we are governed by the Holy Spirit, the fruit of which there is no law against (Galatians 5:22-23).
It is not that we look to a set of do's and don'ts therefore (crossing our t's and dotting our i's) in order to keep salvation.
Rather, we have received the Holy Spirit by faith (Galatians 3:14) and the love of the Lord through the Spirit (Romans 5:5).
And, this love is practical in nature (1 John 3:17-18). It is also the fulfilling of the righteousness of the law within us (Romans 13:8-10, Galatians 5:14, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 8:4).
But it is also a righteousness that is apart from the law (Romans 3:21), being attested to by the law and the prophets.

Thanks! Jesus will know I did a little bit of Good when I was blessed enough to have His Spirit work through me.....Other times, when I was weak and gave it to my Old Adamic Nature and foolishly committed sins , well, I got a HUMONGOUS break as far as that was concerned....Simply Because I did “ God’s Will”, God somehow “ Forgot all of my Sins” ......He “ cast them into the deepest depths of the ocean!” What was the “Will Of God” that I fulfilled? Simple. I “ BELIEVED in the One that He sent....” For my simple Trust in the Gospel Of 1Cor15:1-4 Plus NOTHING !!!.....I gave Jesus the ONLY thing that I had to offer ( my many sins) and in turn He gave me His Righteousness......
Just like many of the Self-Righteous religionists we see here daily, Satan will get on the stand and accuse me of many terrible sins.What will God’s response be when Satan accuses me? “ What Sins”, God will respond , “ It seems that I do not remember them”......Seems like Grace actually trumped my Sins.....Grace sure is Unfair, isn't it ? Some of you had better learn to accept that.....God Bless....
