You know I never said any such thing. Setting aside a pagan day, I assume you mean Sunday, would still be keeping the letter of the law. We have no such command except to rest in Christ. How often? Once a week? NO! Abide in Him and He in us is the Spiritual meaning of the Sabbath day. 1 John...

Why do you have to "try" when our new nature naturally obeys. There is no struggle. Besides there is practicing righteousness, but not practicing sin except when added.

What New Covenant commandment would that be?

Because it is not Paul, but us. Paul tried to correct that thinking, but some do not understand. They are like Martin Luther who wrote, "even if you commit murder and adultery 1000 times a day, it will not separate you from God." Even though that was an exaggeration, the point was made that we...

Yes.

Regarding Daniel in verse 15, some believe that is Daniel 9:24-27, but it is the little horn of Daniel 7. Daniel 9 has to do with the destruction of the temple in 70 AD, and Daniel 7 is about the Ancient of Days and the second coming's time of the end.

Jesus said that anyone who sins is a slave to sin. Is that how He left us? Really? He also said that those slaves will not have eternal life. So are you sure you know what you're talking about, especially if anyone reads what you teach?

And how would you keep the Sabbath except by the letter of the law?

Of course it isn't true, but even then that is what some taught. Jude 1:4. And I've even heard a few on the forums speak the same nonsense, so some denomination is teaching it. I don't know which one, and stay away from any that teach OSAS. "While according to the law you are still a sinner."...

It is not through our own power that we love in God's love, agape love. This is why the New Covenant is for those who have repented of their carnality and been born again of the Holy Spirit inside us. I didn't have that experience of becoming born again for the first 30 years of my life. I was...

No, He said to follow HIS commandments. 1 John 3:23

You're right. Grace is not a license to sin. But many do not know the true meaning of grace. It is not unmerited favor; it is divine power given to us without merit. That is why Paul said in Romans 6 that we are dead to sin. And John says in 1 John 3:5 that Jesus takes away our sin. They are...

I already told you what I thought. If you don't want to tell me what you think...fine.

Tell me.

I don't know what you think he said. What was it?

The sin would be going back to the law and doing the works of the law, like becoming circumsized to be saved. We are not under the law, but under the Spirit. Therefore, we need to walk in the Spirit and not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

Unfortunately, yes. But those who don't use OSAS as an excuse to sin may be okay. You see we DO have assurance for those who do as Christ commanded and abide in Him. 1 John 3:18-24 18 My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. 19 And by this we know that...

So then you must keep all the festivals if that law has not been fulfilled.

Those are the Commandments that Jesus taught, not the ones on Mt. Sinai. Those from Mt. Sinai are called the Fathers Commandments. John 15:10. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love. John 6:40 And this is...

The Sabbath is the sign of the Old Covenant. We are under the New Covenant. And it has a different sign. And not a day.
