Like a good silly dispensationalist, you believe Jews are superior Christians. Rome was evangelized by Christians that were not from the Church at Jerusalem. The seed of Abraham is scattered throughout this world in those considered Gentiles. It has been since patriarch's began taking Gentiles...

I already have. God condemned Peter's position at the cross. The roaster crowed thrice. God condemned Peter's position in Acts 10 by thrice demand that Peter eat what he claimed was unclean. Just like you here, you have a mind issue. You can't accept that God makes choices He didnt approve...

I was starting to think you were one of those crazy KJVOists. You proved it here. So go ahead. Claim your King James is the ruler of your theology. King James hated the Scriptures in the Geneva Bible and banned the Word of God in England. Nasty tyrant king James runs your life. You really do...

You're ignoring the vast majority of the poor that do not earn a living wage and struggle endless to provide for themselves and others. Again. Human beings create the poor and then hook them on their charity to make them feel better about themselves.

Yes. And you reject what you just claimed we agree upon. They why are you making faith a work of men? It is ridiculous how you appeal to the work of God and then appeal to the work of Abraham in James 2:24. One is not the other. The preservation of God's word has nothing to do with any...

We create our poor...... and hook them on our "charity"..... It makes us feel good about ourselves and adds us servants to our kindness.

Most "charity" is nothing more to feel good about ourselves. We give gifts to those we believe merit it.

That is the most convoluted nonsense I have read in some time. All you're doing is repeating yourself. You refuse to acknowledge your lack of righteousness in failing to do good without ceasing. I encourage you to see salvation for what it is. God's own work to Atone for humanity. You dishonor...

There are no excuses for the actions of the church of Jerusalem. Jews didn't want Gentiles in their assemblies. Peter resisted the Lord Jesus Christ as he had often done. I'm not casting stones at Peter. I'm as bad or worse. YOU ARE TOO. However, WE MUST see the things for what they are. You...

You do make faith meritorious by claiming that it is a work. It is not a false accusation. You're proving it every time you respond. What you say betrays your heart. You can claim that you're not saying that salvation is merited but when you claim that faith is a work, you make faith void...

I shouldn't have to tell you this. You obvious know some Scriptures. The issue is with your reliance upon men to discern the Scriptures. Act 10:11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth...

Yes. He did. He commands men everywhere to repent. I never said that. I said that faith isn't "work". Your false gospel teaches that faith is meritorious. Faith is not a work. It is relying upon the work of another. Get it?

The law of sin and death has been from the beginning. Do you not know the book of Romans?

Gentiles were never given the Torah. Those are not my laws at all. Do you claim to be a Jew? There are no pure blooded Jews left in this world. Jews have continually broken the law requiring the obedience to not marry among Gentiles. So much so, their very lives are a testament to their utter...

That isn't even remotely true. Verse #29 clearly says it is the "work of God". You are ADDING to the Scriptures. God gave them to control lawless humanity and to establish guilt in all of humanity. They were never made to establish righteousness. When you look at the "law", you think you see...

Have you ever heard of the concept in the Scripture of "liberty"? Your "commandments" are just that. Your commandments. I'm not bound by what you believe are the commandments I.... should follow.

You're reject clear references to the law mediated through Moses. James appeals to the "law of liberty" in the Torah. There is no other references anywhere in the Scriptures that detail another other law than the Torah. There is only ONE LAW. Jas 2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery...

I realize that you desperately want to prove yourself to others and you DEMAND that others be like yourself but I don't answer to your approval. I have One Master. Jesus Christ. Rom 4:6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without...

I have given you several. There are plenty more but if you don't accept the ones I've given you, you will not accept others. Give me a logical explanation of how believing/expressing faith in the work of another..... actually equates to a "work" yourself? That is an oxymoron.

James appeals to the Torah. You can't possibly deny this. If you understand Jewish thought and teachings among the Torah, you can easily recognize the appeal of James to his audience. He appeals to Jews to not abandon the Torah but to fulfill the Torah by keeping its commandments. To the writer...
