Do you deny that it is possible to teach true morality on stones or paper? For example, to you deny that the written command to love our neighbor as ourselves is in accordance with true morality? Can someone's conscience be wrong about true morality and be informed about true morality by...

There were no laws done away with on the cross, but rather what was nailed to Christ's cross was the list of our sins in transgression of the Mosaic Law. In Titus 2:14, it doesn't say that Jesus gave himself to do away with the Mosaic Law, but to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for...

In Deuteronomy 5:31, Moses wrote down everything that God commanded without departing from it, so all of the Mosaic Law is God's law, not just ten of them. Moreover, the Law of Moses is described as being the Law of God in verses like Nehemiah 8:1-8, Ezra 7:6-12, and Luke 2:22-23. In Psalms...

No. They used the Greek word "telos" and I said nothing about changing or deleting that word. Rather, I spoke about how that word should be correctly translated into English based on the context of how it is used.

I see a verses that is representative of the reality that while the servants of God who wrote the NT can be interpreted as speaking against obeying what God has commanded, they don't have to be. While the Greek word "telos" can be translated as "end", it doesn't have to be. "Telos" can also be...

I see that you do not care for truth, but rather you are opposed to it (Psalms 119:142) and to the embodiment of it (John 14:6).

In Matthew 4:15-23, Christ began his ministry with the Gospel message to repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand, which was a light to the Gentiles, and the Mosaic Law was how his audience knew what sin is, so repenting from our disobedience to it is a central part of the “Historical Gospel of...

You pretty much just repeated your position without giving any support for it while ignoring everything that I said that showed that your position is wrong.

No, but you apparently believe that we you can please God by disobeying His law and that it it is not contradictory for someone to be righteous while not being a doer of righteous works. I quoted Psalms 119:30 as saying that he chose the way of faith by setting God’s law before him, so the...

I am not sinless, but I do repent after I have sinned. There is no "but" in that verse in the Greek, rather John 1:16 says grace upon grace, so it is speaking about one example of grace bring added upon another. In Psalms 119:29, he wanted God to be gracious to him by teaching him to obey the...

The NT says that we are not permitted to sin (Romans 6:15). The NT also says that it is by the Mosaic Law that we have knowledge of what sin is (Romans 3:20). This is not difficult to understand. The Mosaic Law brings us to Christ because it teaches us how to know Him, but does not bring us...

The NT instructs us to repent from sin and that it is by the Law of Moses that we know what sin is.

Repeating the same baseless accusations won't make them any more true.

You want to act like I don't know what the Mosaic Law instructs, so I corrected you. The fact that Jesus gave himself to pay the penalty for our sin should make us want to go and sin no more, not consider ourselves free to sin. It strengthens my position by be able to cite multiple verses...

Someone who is gay is sexually attracted to those of the same gender. That verse does not say to execute people who are sexually attracted to those who are the same gender, but rather it says to execute those who have homosexual sex. Jesus gave himself pay the penalty for our sins. I do obey...

Another way to put it is that morality is based on God's nature an all of God's laws are His instructions for how to act in accordance with God's nature, so they are all inherently moral laws. This is why the Bible often uses the same terms to describe aspects of the nature of God as it does to...

In Jeremiah 31:33, it uses the Hebrew word "Torah", so if you wanted I could equivalently say that the New Covenant involves putting the Torah in our minds and writing it on our hearts and one of the laws of the Torah is to keep the Sabbath holy. In Deuteronomy 30:1-10, it prophesies about a...

Morality is in regard to what we ought to do and we ought to obey God, so all of God's laws are inherently moral laws. Legislators give laws in regard to what they think ought to be done, so for someone to think that God or any of His laws are not moral laws is to think that God made a moral...

In Psalms 119:29-30, he wanted to put false ways far from him, for God to be gracious to him by teaching him to obey His law, and he chose the way of faith by setting it before him, so this has always been the one and only way of salvation by grace through faith. Christ set a sinless example...

Character traits are not something that are earned as the result of having first done done a certain amount of works that express that trait, but rather the only way to attain a character trait is through faith that we ought to be doers of that trait apart from our works apart from that...
