    What is the Purpose of the Law

    (Richard_oti;52402) Fully understood. Just as 'Jehovah' is made up from the tetragrammaton combined with the nikud [vowel points] from adonai.Yahweh also according to some schools is the tetragrammaton combined with the nikud of adonai.YHVH [yod, he, vav, he]: 'Eloa [alef, lamed, vav, he]If...

    What is the Purpose of the Law

    In Biblical terms the word Torah really means instuctions in the fashion of a father would give a child, not law. It is not to be relate from a government prospective to a group of subjects. It was the means of a mentor handing down character and traits to a pupil by example and instructions.

    Who is Israel?

    Who is Israel? ________________________________________Who is Israel?God by His own sovereignty changed Jacob's name from the sup-planter to Israel, a prince that has power with God (Gen 32:28). Would God and could God do this again? Was this the foreshadowing of a future event? God had just...

    What is the Purpose of the Law

    (Richard_oti;51994) IMO: Learning requires discussion. I enjoy discussion, for by it two [or more] parties may learn from one another.Since you ask, let's start with something simple. You have used the name "Yahweh". May I ask why you have chosen to use that variation of HaShem [The...

    Defeating Pride of Life

    What is the Pride of Life?We get introduced to pride in Gen 3:1-7 during the temptation of Eve. It is connected to the lust of the flesh and lust of the eyes. However, it is deadlier and more subtle than the others in how it impacts and manipulates our person. It is illusive to the point that...

    Why Do Christians Primarily Worship on Sunday

    Where is the Scripture to prove any of these ascertains. The Biblical week started with the first day on the lunar calendar at sundown on Saturday to sundown on Sunday (being Saturday afternoon on the solar calendar). The Sabbath was from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. There is no...

    What is the Purpose of the Law

    (Richard_oti;51813) Hmmm, I will take that at face value. However, I can assure you it was not a challenge.Yet, can it be done without starting 'fires'? I have several red flags up right now. Your message, while not perfect in it's content, is being set forth in a manner I have witnessed...

    The Process of Salvation

    (RichardBurger;51835) If I have this correct, you are saying the process of salvation is accomplished by man. Does that mean man must save himself?I always thought the process of glorification was carried out by God when a person believes in the work of His Son, Jesus, on the cross.Sounds to me...

    Is God bound by time

    Is God effected by time? How does God relate to time? The Scripture say that Yeshua was the lamb slain before the foundation of creation, which mean before mankind needed a scrafice for sin since we had yet to be created. I believe God is not bound by time. Time does not have any effect on God...

    The Process of Salvation

    Off topic,this thread is about the process of salvation, not the means of salvation. Regardless of the means, how is the process unto my glorification carried out. You guys are fussing over how we began the journey. I am talking about how the journey is travelled. Thanks chris

    What is the Purpose of the Law

    (Richard_oti;51713) That 'was/has been' the mistake many have fallen into, that it was "earned". As it was and still is by faith.While I do not agree with the whole, overall I enjoyed reading your post. May your studies indeed be blessed. But beware re`eh of the pitfalls along the path. I...

    Did Gentiles Jack the Covenant

    Got a little more to add, Ephraim does represent the House of the Gentiles. His mother was an Egyptian. However, if you go to Revelations you see God using the name Joseph again. God gave the gentiles an inheritance through Ephraim and Manassah by Jacob/Israel grafting them into the household of...

    Did Gentiles Jack the Covenant

    How can you just abritrarily and without inspiration say that the branches left on as the remnant are irrevelant. You are talking about Paul, Peter, John, and James who are the remnant who wrote the New Testament. They are not irrelevant. Of course out agreement and not to cause unnecessary...
