Can you please rephrase? :)

True. There are two, but they are like unto each other: "Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like...

You are speaking in philosophical riddles, Scott. Can you express your thoughts using the scripture? Rev

There is no evidence of that. However, there is plenty of evidence that Jesus (the husband) died to release Israel (the wife) from the bondage of the old covenant (the law). The best evidence is probably found in Romans 7:1-4, "Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,)...

The old covenant (also called the "Law") was given to the children of Israel at Sinai and comprised over 600 commandments and ordinances, which was taught and administered by those in the tribe of Levi. The later prophets were also considered part of the Law, as mentioned in the new testament...

You remind me of the Pharisee in this parable: "The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess." -- Luk 18:11-12 KJV...

christiang, earlier you wrote, "You're not getting it, do you not understand that someone who is baptized with the holy spirit can NEVER sin again?" Now you are saying, "even if it were possible for someone who has the holy spirit to fall away". You sound confused. The author of the Hebrews...

Your self-righteousness is unbecoming. You might consider a course in humility, for your own benefit, of course. Rev

How do you interpret Hebrews 6? "For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again...

Like I said, you would do better to drop the attitude. Rev

You are not making a lot of sense. If you believe Christians (or anyone else) are under the law of Moses, you are gravely mistaken. The only "law" we are under was given to us by the Lord in Matthew 7:12. Rev 20

Neither. I was never under the law. Jesus died to release Israel from the law. You would do better if you drop the attitude. Rev 20

The law of Moses (the first covenant) was replaced by the law of faith (the second covenant). Otherwise, Christ died in vain. Rev

The law of Moses was fulfilled in the first century. Christ died to release Israel from the first covenant [Rom 7:1-4], which released them from the law. Rev

The new covenant is superior because, as aforementioned, the old covenant was flawed and kept the children of Israel in bondage. The law and the prophets, as aforementioned, were fulfilled after Jerusalem was surrounded by armies: "And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then...

I was not speaking of the Abrahamic covenant, christiang, nor the Davidic covenant, nor the Noahic covenant. I was referring to the covenant God made with Israel regarding the law: "And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the Lord...

Christiang, again, Christ died to release Israel from the old covenant (Rom 7:1-4). Nothing you wrote in any of those links changes that fact. Besides, Christ said that everything that was written (Moses and the prophets) would be fulfilled when Jerusalem was surrounded by armies: "And when ye...

christiang, please read my post again. Paul said (in Romans 7:1-4) that Christ (the husband) died to release Israel (the wife) from the law (the old covenant). Once Israel was released from the old covenant, they were free to remarry Christ under the new covenant. Please provide scriptural...

Please rephrase your question(s). Thanks. Rev

I have no idea what that means. Do you have supporting scripture for that? And, if so, how does it support your implication that you were chosen from the foundation of the world? Rev
