The question remains is… why did Paul, and the Pharisees not able to keep the Old Law? Because they did not have Christ or God living in them to help them to obey God’s laws. You need God in your life in order to obey all of His commands.

You like to put words in my mouth. Anyways, as for Philippians 3:6: Touching the Law means Paul was loosely keeping it. It does not say he was blameless in keeping the whole law. Paul basically stated in Romans 7:14-24 that he could not keep the Law (Note: He said this from his experience as...

I answered it with a passage. Do you not believe the Bible in what it says?

@savedbygrace1 I would encourage you to stop listening to Protestants for one year and just read your Bible alone and ask God for the understanding on it. Forget everything you know and just read and believe your Bible at face value. Don’t let a man tell you what the Bible even says (Not...

Read the passage and you will get your answer.

Do we sacrifice animals in the New Covenant? Did the blood of goats and bulls ever cleanse from sin in the Old Covenant? So as we can see, things are different now in the New Covenant. So you cannot make a case for how things in the Old Covenant are to be the same in the New Covenant. But...

It’s not a matter of running away. It’s because the question has nothing to do with Christians. The Old Law is not the issue or point. We are not under the Old Law anymore. The New Covenant Laws is what a Christian is to follow after they are saved by God’s grace. If you can make a case for...

No. Your not listening. Go back and read what I said. Conversations work both ways. Read the verses that I put forth to you.

The Law has changed (Hebrews 7:12). Meaning, the 613 commands in the Torah or the Law of Moses is no more (as a PACKAGE deal or as a WHOLE). This does not mean certain laws like: Do not murder, do not steal, do not covet, etcetera are not carried over into the many laws of Christ taught to us...

There are Jesus followers who reject the words of Paul. They are called Ebionites. I am not one of them. So no. I don’t think Paul’s words are baloney. I believe Paul’s words are a part of divinely inspired Scripture. I am able to perfectly harmonize Paul’s words with the words of Jesus...

First, the only way you know about the imaginary teaching of “Justification” is from the Protestant religion (Which caters to a person’s sin and still be saved mindset). You did not wake up one day and get this teaching directly from the Bible without a Protestant talking in your ear. Second...

The faith in Romans 4:2 is NOT referring to the work of faith. Romans 4:2 is referring to “Works ALONE Salvationism” by thinking one had to first be circumcised to be initially saved (See: Acts of the Apostles 15:1, Galatians 5:2, Romans 3:1, Romans 4:9-12). In James 2:24, James is talking...

Agreed. They don’t understand the following truths. “…righteousness delivereth from death.” (Proverbs 10:2). “…righteousness delivereth from death.” (Proverbs 11:4). “Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.” (1 John 3:7).

@Ferris Bueller Do you know that works (works of faith done in love) makes a person’s faith perfect? James 2:22 NKJV “Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?” So faith and works are tied together and they cannot be separated. They...

So are you saying that Romans 5:1-2, and Romans 3:25-28 is non-salvific?

First, you are not addressing the problem of the word faith being used in relation to the word justified. If you are saying the word justified is NON-SALVIFIC in James 2:24 in relation to works, then you must ALSO say the same thing for the word FAITH in James 2:24. If that is the case, then...

You fail to understand that Paul was arguing against the heresy of which I call: Circumcision Salvationism. This was the false belief that said you had to be first circumcised in order to be initially saved (See: Acts of the Apostles 15:1). This is why Paul said if you seek to be circumcised...

For if the word justified is non-salvific in James 2:24 (because it also used to refer to the faith), then we must also read Romans 3:25-28 as being non-salvific, too. Romans 3:25-28 25 “Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for...

@mailmandan @Ferris Bueller Again, this is just a dumb interpretation on James 2:24. There is ONLY ONE WORD “JUSTIFIED” and it is used for both FAITH and WORKS in James 2:24. So if you say that this word justified is not salvific in James 2:24, then you are saying that there is a type of...

However, if you believe in Protestantism: You really don’t believe in the 100% guidance of the Holy Spirit for the believer’s life. According to the Protestant man made religion: You believe that you must sin again as per 1 John 1:8 and so no 100% guidance by the Spirit fully is possible for...
