*** When I read the verses you posted I see that there is a new covenant to be made with Israel (NOT THE GENTILES). This new covenant will be made to Israel when Jesus returns to set up His Kingdom in Israel. It is not the old covenant (Law), nor is it the new covenant, under grace for the...

*** Then explain these verses. They clearly show that one covenant was replaced by another covenant, Therefore, are we under the first covenant or the second? We can't be under both. Heb 7:18-19 18 For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness...

When a person, or religious organization, keeps inventing sacraments, then it is they're keeping of the sacraments they have faith in, not Christ. Otherwise, why keep those invented sacraments? And when one goes to a confessional and tells a "priest" about their sins, then it is their going to...

God's promise to Abraham: Gen 22:17-18 17 "blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. 18 "In your seed all the nations of the...

*** All through the Bible those that believed God were justified. Those that did not were not justified. Eve believed Satan instead of God. Cain believed that he could substitute the works of his hands for a blood sacrifice.God had told him it must be a blood sacrifice. When the Jews came to...

*** Then I will not reply since it would not make any difference.

*** Just because the children of God are not under the law does not mean the law ceased to exist. Those that have not placed their belief, faith, trust, and confidence in Jesus' work on the cross will be judged by the law. It is common sense that those "in Christ" have already been judged and...

*** The child of God has the very righteousness of God IMPUTED to him/her. Since they have God's righteousness they are not under the law because they have God's righteousness.. They are obedient because they place their belief, faith, trust, and confidence in His work on the cross to save them

Stranger, I have never said, nor indicated, that the book of James should not be in the Bible. It has just as much place as the 4 gospels. But it has to be seen that it should not be used to develop doctrine for the church under grace. There is a scripture that you should consider where the...

*** And I disagree with your idea that the book of James was written to the Gentile grace church. It plainly says who it was written to. As Acts 21 shows Jame was not teaching the Jews that they were no longer under the law as Paul was teaching. It is common sense to understand that if the...

*** I grow tired of this. No matter how much I show in the scriptures that say we are no longer under the law people will say we are. No matter how much I show that indicates Jesus and the 12 (or 11) never rescinded the law. People will ignore it. No matter how much evidence I show that Paul...

*** His shed blood pays for all the sins of the world. However if you don't believe it pays for your sins then it doesn't. Jesus has already paid for each man/women's sins. The only sin that condemns in this age of grace is the sin of unbelief; unbelief in what Jesus did on the cross. No...

*** I take it that you are referencing Peter's sermon on Pentecost. If so then you have no idea of what was said by the Jews and Peter's answer to their question. 37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Men and brethren, what...

*** Thanks.

*** Jesus told the 12 who were Jews under the law to go and baptize. Ceremonial washing was under the Law of Moses. Jesus never told the Gentiles to do it and I don't think you can find a place in scriptures that say He did. If you are going to base your ideas on what Jesus said to the Jews...

What happens to a person's theology when it is realized that all the sins of mankind were paid for on the cross? The only thing that is not paid for is unbelief. If a person does not believe Jesus paid for their sins then that person is in a state of unbelief in what Jesus did for them on the...

*** James 1:25 2:8 2:9 2:10 2:11 2:12 4:11 4:11 4:11 4:11 That is 10 places as found by my new BS search engine. I don't know how I got 18. Sorry about that.

*** Believe what you will but for me I believe in the Ark (Jesus) that God built for me. In Him I am safe from my sinful flesh. I do not believe that a person being dunked in water is necessary for salvation. I believe Jesus did everything necessary for a person's salvation on the cross...

*** I disagree. The book of James is not a book about grace. Here are some more facts that support my opinion. I find them interesting. 1. The word “Law” is found in 18 places 2. The word “grace” is found in 2 places 3. The word “Christ” is found in 2 places 4. The word “Justified” is found...

*** It is not about water. You should think of it as the Ark being a type of Christ. You want the water to be both a means of salvation and also a means of death. I look at the words ""in Christ"" and think of them in reference to Noah and the flood. Noah was told by God to build an Ark. It...
