Yes the law does that, but it is also called a ministry of death and done away with. Why do yoiu accept those verses as literal, but feel compelled to view 2 Cor. 3 with a need to explain what you think God meant? Well I have been having one, sorry if you do not see it! It is good for you...

I cannot answer your interpretation. I can only answer what is written and not how you see it as you want to. YOur commentary is different that what God said.

the fault is the persons own nature and sin which dwells in it. Once again I am simply relaying th eScripture without adding or interpreting it, but accepting it as it was written. Teh law strengthens sin in us. It was not designed that way, but god knew this would be th eresult and allowed...

YOur biggest obstacle to understanding Scripture here is that you refuse to accept the 1st Century Jewish mindset in how they counted days as far as an activity went. YOu arew trying to force your 21 st century mindset onto a long gone cultural way of doing things.

YOu fail to recognize that it is not me but the Jews of the day that counted days as they did. I had nothing to do with it. So let us make some assumptions. Sundown which started the new day in Jewish culture was 7 pm. Jesus died at c. 3PM. So 3-7 pm friday= one day 7pm friday to 7 pm...

Y&^es that is an accurate graph of the timeline. but you still to continue to ignore that in the Jewish culture of Jesus' day (which Jesus was most definitely a part of), Jews counted any part of a day as a day! You can disagree all you wish, but that is what they did. so when Jesus said...

And because our flesh is opposed to the things of God, it strengthens sin in our members to deceive and slay us!

Wow you call me a troll for telling you Jesus died in the month Nisan and not Abib and then you writea post in huge letters showing that the resurrection occurred in the month Nisan! The greeks had a word for your ad-hominems: Hupo- critos!

Using red ink and enlarging the letters do not make your bearing false witness any truer! YOu seem to love writing in flourishes, but those flourishes are as vapid if you wroite them colloquially.

Oh I get it perfectly. But what you do not get is that Jews counted them differently in Jesus day. Remember the bible occurred not in 21st century American culture, but in first century Jewish culture and they wrote as they knew.

Yes I do when I can. but that is not the new covenant. The bread and wine are partaken of for us to show His death till He returns. Jesus' body and blood are the price paid to make the covenant valid, but they are not the Covenant. Multiple places in the OT show covenants require a sacrfice...

That is what being born again does to us! It moves us in teh direction of God and we learn to love righteousness more and more.

Romans 7 is the bvest commentary how the law defines and makes sin strong in our flesh.

Until a few years after Roe v. Wade took root in America, OBS/GYTN textbooks spoke of a doctor treating 2 patients with a pregnant women. But all teh emotional and philosophical arguments have been falling on hardened hearts. I saw a news boradcast showing women marching for abortion rights...

so you think me unsaved because I refuse to condemn the covid shots? Is that the ENoch 111 translation of soteriology?????

But this line is a rabbit trail from the op of this thread.

God knew it would strenghten sin, just like He knew that Adam would fall. He allowed it for His reasons. I will not redefine the Scriptures unless the text forces me to.

And you know this empirically how?

Acc ording to you! but commenting on how I answer keeps you from addressing the OP.

And you totally ignore that in the culture of the day, when Jews spoke of a day, it mmeant any part of the day unless specified! So when Jesus said he would be three days in the tomb or three days and nights, friday for a few hours, all day saturday and the few hours of Sunday was considered...
