I think you are reading "the 10 commandments are written inside our hearts", which is not what that scripture says. Now what Jer 31 explains is that we are under a New Covenant, so obviously it would be the law of THAT covenant which is written inside our hearts. That's ok, I'm not trying to...

The law of Christ is comprised of God's commandments to Christians - to believein the name of his Son, Jesus Christ and to love one another as he commanded us. Now after discussing this matter with SDAs for a few years now I think I know what to expect next. You are going to point out that the...

Romans 6 does not mention any obligation to keep the 10 commandments. If it does, then point it out. What it does mention is sinning, which is breaking the law one is under. The law of Christ deals with the same kinds of moral issues mentioned in the decalogue, but with the flexibility that when...

Phoneman, you used that verse to make the claim that Christains were sinless, I think it had something to do with you unsupported theory that we are now empowered to keep the 10 commandments, something that scripture doesn't say. NOW, after I showed you how scripture disproves this, you...

The Barrd, instead of just claiming that those who disagree with you are twisting things, why don't you point out exactly what you mean and handle each point specifically, instead of using faulty logic and pretending that your arguments haven't already been dealt with and totally disproven. No...

Phoneman, the arguments you are using here (you know, the so-called "nails in the coffin") are non-sequiturs. They don't support your claims. Romans 6:15 does not say that we are obligated to keep the 10 commandments. If it did we would be thrown back into a state of hopelessness. All it says is...

Well, I guess that when both James AND John told us to confess our sins (James 5:16, 1 John 1:9) they should have attended Phoneman's Bible college and got it straight from the master. Phoneman, your theology is warped. You need to stick to the entire truth of the Bible and not pick and choose...

That's a nice theory, but since we know that 1) anyone claiming to be without sin is a liar, and 2) we are not under the old testament law, that argment goes right out the door. And? Since scripture teaches us that 1) the sabbath was merely a shadow pointing towards Christ, and 2) it is now...

So where does scripture teach us to make that kind of distinction? Not only were the 10 commandments included in the old covenant, they were also described in scripture as BEING the old covenant. And there isn't a shred of scripture ANYWHERE that teaches us that the 10 commandments were separate...

Phoneman, I think you need to remember that Abraham did not have only ONE seed, but two. Only ONE of those seeds was "heir to the promise". One seed was the child of the "slave woman", who represented those who were under the law, and the other seed the child of the free woman who had faith in...

No, the Bible does not say that. All you are doing is throwing out definitions and assuming it proves your point. It doesn't do that, just as it does not make neat little categories in the way you are suggesting. Furthermore, you are trying to link the English word "ordinances" which is a...

Where does the Bible say that ceremonial laws were called ordinances and commandments called statutes? Hint: it doesn't! It's just that SDAs need to create a distinction between them in order to support their doctrine. Christ didn't die to save us from ceremonies, he died to save us from our sins!

Yet another SDA thread... and yet another strawman argument designed to justify your false theology. The idea of course is that all other Christians, with the exemption of SDAs, are claiming that it is completely "OK to sin" and are therefore wallowing around in it as much as their hearts...

There is no confusion on my part Phoneman, and neither am I being unreasonable. And no, you haven't shown that the law of the Old Covenant was a "component" of the New. The two covenants have two separate laws dealing with common issues. The Old covenant law was "powerless" to do what God did as...

No you don't understand the Gospel phoneman because if you did you would not contradict the doctrine of the New Covenant. You would also be able to defend your doctrine based on what scripture says, rather than making claims that go beyond what is written. Similarly you would be able to support...

It is not a matter of "replacing" commandments at all. It is whether or not we are born again and follow the Spirit of God, and the very fact that you still thinking in terms of lists of commandments shows that you do not understand the Gospel at all. We have the Holy Spirit to guide us and...

I didn't make the claim that it was made for one man, I simply showed you that the word that you were using as proof that the Mosiac sabbath commandment was given to all men everywhere, cannot be confined to that one definition. I could say the same thing today if said that size 12 rubber boots...

What "opinion" are you referring to? As usual your conclusions are riddled with errors. Firstly, the passage of scripture that specifically refers to the 10 commandments (unless you know of anything else in scripture that was engraved in stone) is 2 Cor 3:7-11. Secondly, neither Hebrews 8:13...

False! Perhaps 3,500 years ago gullible people would have accepted that kind of argument, not knowing anything better, but "today", we understand stone is no more "eternal" than anything else in creation. And IRONICALLY the fact that the 10 commandments were written on stone has NOT been handed...

Wrong! You have been listening too much to completely false arguments given to you by SDAs. The word (anthrōpos) can be translated to ANY of the following meanings according to Strong's: I.a human being, whether male or female A.generically, to include all human individuals B.to distinguish...
