Isreal were called a 'holy nation' and they did not have christs blood. Exodus 19:, 4 ‘YOU yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, that I might carry YOU on wings of eagles and bring YOU to myself. 5 And now if YOU will strictly obey my voice and will indeed keep my covenant, then...

thats right, it was 'nailed to the torture stake' which means we are no longer bound to follow a set of laws and regulations. That set of laws and regulations were what gave the jews a righteous standing before God because by obeying them, they were living by Gods righteousness. But...

Did God remove the mosaic law code?

No robbie, that is not what we are saying. We all have sin and every day we ask for forgiveness of our sins. But we dont deliberately commit wrongdoing and say to ourselves...'oh well, i can do this because im righteous in Christs blood' Christs blood covers our repentance. God overlooks...

*correction: It doesnt mean we can keep 'sinning'

So true. Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “If anyone wants to come after me, let him disown himself and pick up his torture stake and continually follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save his soul will lose it; but whoever loses his soul for my sake will find it. 26 For what...

The next day he beheld Jesus coming toward him, and he said: “See, the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world As prophesied by Isaiah, the Messiah would become the means for having a righteous standing before God.... Isaiah 53:11 Because of the trouble of his soul he will see, he will...

Yes im sure he was disappointed in their lack of faith.... but they showed a lack of faith many times and he didnt cry over it. I didnt really put this up for the purpose of debating why he cried. The real purpose is only to comfort and encourage some in need of it. . :) Jesus was someone...

i got that from you and robbie because you seem to reject the idea that repentance and turning away from sin is how we gain forgiveness

so sinning is ok? You are allowed to commit immorality and lie and cheat and steal are you?

When Paul said 'all things are lawful' he wasnt talking about immorality or murder or the like. Most of the NT is referring to mosaic laws and its regulations because the new congregations were still a little confused as to whether obedience to the mosaic law was a requirement or not. The holy...

That would never happen, i can assure you of that. The scriptures are too clearly defined. God wants us to back his kingdom. If the kingdom was not real to us, then we probably would not consider involvement in politics wrong at all.... but the kingdom is very real and we view ourselves as its...

Well i'll leave it for you to reason on. You know Adam is called a 'son of God' So Adam has been likened to a child of God. We know what children are like, they have the tendency to imitate their parents. Can you think of any ways that mankind attempt to imitate God? Ephesians 5:1-2 Luke...

we all sin, but we dont have to commit sins that are expressly forbidden in the NT. The mosaic laws were pushes aside, so eating certain foods and all those regulations do not pertain to us. But laws against murder and fornication and eating blood were all known well before the mosaic law...

they were only washed clean because they had repented and turned away from their wrongdoing. Do you honestly think that God is ok with wrongdoing now? Do you think his standards have changed now?

I would direct you to 1Cor 6:9 What! Do YOU not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men, 10 nor thieves, nor greedy persons, nor drunkards...

but that is only if the homosexual turns away from the practice of homosexuality. One must stop sinning intentionally if they are to benefit from Christs blood.

The loss of a loved one to death is a very painful experience. In some cultures, people express their feelings openly. On the other hand, in some parts of the world, notably in northern Europe and Britain, people, especially men, have been conditioned to hide their feelings, to suppress their...

well done to both of you. Your english looks pretty good in writing :)

Ah, i see. So Jesus died, therefore we are all saved. Got it. You are right, that is easy. But hang on a tick..... Didn't Jesus say that the road to life is not being found by many people... Matthew 7:13-14 “Go in through the narrow gate; because broad and spacious is the road leading...
