    Jesus and Commands

    Note that there are some creative writing efforts that have the goal of trying to get people to believe that God's Commandments are not Christ's Commandments. That Christ argues for rebellion against God's Commandments and in favor of keeping HIS (Christ's) Commandments "instead". Thank God...

    Jesus and Commands

    That's creative writing "if we have to keep the old law". Jeremiah 31:31-33 "the LAW of God written on the heart" -- is it your claim that Jeremiah was speaking about a "LAW he did not know" one that does not include "do not take God's name in vain" and "remember the Sabbath day" -- with your...

    Jesus and Commands

    That's because Sabbath keeping Christians are big on the "sola scriptura" thing and so far not one person has given a single text says "week-day-1 is the Lord's Day". as we all know by now. True - but when did the Lord's Day change from the 7th day to "week day 1"?? Certainly not in the Bible...

    Jesus and Commands

    How many of the Ten Commandments would you personally prefer to "edit out"? Mark 7:6-13 - how many does Christ claim in Mark 7 that are "up for grabs" as though "any ol tradition will do" for deleting one?

    Its that "sola scriptura" thing.

    The Cosmos

    I wish the OP had included this - as the opposite of God's Word: "a single celled animal will -- sure enough -- turn into a rabbit over time no matter the impossibility of it -- given a sufficiently talented bacteria and a sufficiently long and talented period of time and chance filled with...

    The Cosmos

    BobRyan said: ↑ True. We are now well past the days when we had an excuse for believing in junk-science religion of evolutionism, or in a flat earth. So how refreshing to find that we have actual Christians who accept the Word of God stating that the "Two Great Lights" - the sun, moon were...

    True. We are now well past the days when we had an excuse for believing in junk-science religion of evolutionism, or in a flat earth. So how refreshing to find that we have actual Christians who accept the Word of God stating that the "Two Great Lights" - the sun, moon were created on day 4...

    The Cosmos

    Exodus 20 -- the TEN Commandments -- give specific details impossible to bend/wrench/twist on this topic. 8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you...

    Jesus and Commands

    Luke 7 2 Now a centurion had a servant who was sick and at the point of death, who was highly valued by him. 3 When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 And when they came to Jesus, they pleaded with him earnestly, saying...

    Jesus and Commands

    I agree -- you do hear that a lot. But how many of those folks would dare to go on to say "so go ahead and take God's name in vain... we don't need to worry about that restriction or the penalty for being in rebellion on that point"... ? And in Romans 8:4-8 the Law of God is "fulfilled" in us -...

    Jesus and Commands

    Jesus came to uphold His WORD - the LAW of God from the Word of God, while at the same time providing salvation for fallen mankind for "all had sinned". Jesus did not come to "make it ok for saints to take God's name in vain" -- as hopefully all will freely admit. In the NEW Covenant of...

    Does Jesus give people a 2nd chance after death?

    1. Don't see any mention of "Tartaroo" in 1 Peter 3. 2. Either the text is saying A. that at the cross - and then the grave, ==> Jesus went to rescue "just those" who were alive at the time of Noah OR B. That the Spirit of Christ (The Holy Spirit) was convicting and enduring with...

    Jesus and Commands

    Yes they are. Jesus is not saying "some folks like red and others like blue" imperatives come in many forms It is prescriptive - not merely descriptive as you have supposed. These are imperatives. Disciples and the World 13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become...

    yes. 1050 of them in the NT. http://www.abc.net.au/reslib/201407/r1308729_17984331.pdf

    Jesus and Commands

    Matthew 19 -- Jesus is specifically asked "which ones?" -- and you included it where?? Seriously? Mark 7:6-13 helps with "another" example of His focus on a commandment that you have left out. Interesting that Paul also focuses on that in Eph 6:2 telling us that the 5th commandment (Honor your...

    Jesus and Commands

    In Matthew 22 Jesus quotes two commandments in the Law of Moses Deut 6:5 "Love God with all your heart" Lev 19:18 "Love your neighbor as yourself". Jesus said all of the Bible "All the Law and the prophets" were firmly established on those two commands found in the Law of Moses. In Mathew 19 -...

    Does Jesus give people a 2nd chance after death?

    There is more creative writing there than I would be comfortable with - since believe the Bible is the Word of God. Genesis 7 - the "many" (an entire planet-load of them) are destroyed by the flood and only eight survive. Matthew 7 - the "many" on the wide road to hell.... the few on the...

    Does Jesus give people a 2nd chance after death?

    Hebrews 9 "It is appointed unto man ONCE to die and then comes the judgment" -- No such thing as "change your mind after you die" Satan tell Eve "no, no that is all wrong - God is too loving to do that... don't worry" Amen! Why goof off in this life with the false hope that in the next life -...
