The Spirit of the law is a secular construct. When Jesus equated lust with the physicall act, He was explaining what the 7th commandment was meaning from the beginning. It isn't a step up or higher goal, it was always the minimum marker or standard.

Should have collected it the day before. If it were for some widow or sick person who couldn't collect for themselves, than Jesus would have did, that was doing good. You are setting Jesus, the Lawgiver, against Himself. Be careful.

Absolutely correct that there are different sabbaths. Basically feast days but a step up in importance. Passover for example was a week long and was bookended by sabbaths. The day of Atonement... Sabbath. And as Colossians says, those sabbaths Paul was referring to, and the feast days and new...

Why is it that so many people stubbornly refuse to consider that true obedience is impossible without God's help? And if is with God's help, then obedience comes after justification, not as a component of it.

We keep the 4th commandment in the same manner and by the same strength we obey all the others. By faith in God's power to empower us in our resolve to obey. By abiding in Him, at all times, and focusing on those things on Sabbath of which we know meet with God's approval.

The sabbath day was blessed and made holy at creation. God confirmed this when He introduced manna, and reinforced it with the 4th commandment. Nowhere in scripture or in history are we told that the holiness has been removed by God. The day itself is holy still. If you desire to ignore one...

You've got to remember that it was Jesus Himself who wrote the law on stone and gave them to Moses. If your understanding and what you say is true and consistent, then you have Jesus contradicting Himself. So let me paraphrase how I think you should be understanding what Jesus was saying...

Jesus said it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath. Plucking and eating raw corn kernels is not the same as cooking and preparing a meal.

The sea beast, whose history could be described as a religious tyranny, in conjunction with whatever local government was willing, or coerced, into enforcing the religious doctrines of the beast, came to an abrupt end in1798. It was at this same time that the land beast was rising up. A beast...

Where in scripture does it state that one is forbidden to help a neighbour on the Sabbath? Even the Pharisees would lift a sheep out of a ditch on the Sabbath. But not a human? Who said picking fruit when you're hungry was sinful on the Sabbath? Is God not merciful toward the poor and hungry?

“1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. ” 2 Thessalonians 2:1-2 KJV...

Many people experienced the atmosphere of heaven while in the presence of the Son of God. They saw the Father's love in action. The received healing, hope, and a promise far beyond their pueblos experience with the religious teachers of their day. Many believed on Him after witnessing the...

The idea of reaching out to the world is to convince the world that there is a God Who loves them, Who sent His Son to die for them as an Atonement for sin. Also, that this same God not only has the power, but is willing to share that power with sinners that they may overcome and live lives...

"You would be familiar with Isaiah 58, Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins". We need to be specific, and call sin by its right name. This, Jesus did. But Jesus never once did that with people outside...

If I thought the God I believed in was capable of torturing members of His most precious beloved creation, then yes, I would be afraid. Very afraid. But praise God, the Good I brief on, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ isn't a God to be afraid of. He can be trusted. Lived. Worshipped...

With 2 apparently defensible opinions that are opposite, and unsure which direction to take, I suggest one digs deeper into scripture in order to discover Who God is and what He is like. His unique revealed character as found in His Son will determine whether you think God is capable of some...

I am saying that one of the main false doctrines of Mystery Babylon the Great is gross, disgusting, and blasphemous. Does it bother you that you share that doctrine with the Mother of Harlots? Did you know that she was the one who invented it? And no, she didn't put it in the Bible, she simply...

Not God's brand of justice... yours. You are the one who seems to delight in your belief that God is painted by so many as a tyrant of far greater evil than any despot who ruled on the earth. Such a gross, disgusting thoughtless blasphemous mischaracterisation. Satan also would delight in...

You are playing word games. Religious liberty is a God given right. Free will is enshrined in creation. Even Lucifer himself who set up the original rebellion with nearly half the population of heaven, was given leave to self rule.... just not in heaven. The right to choose who we worship is...

The Ten Commandments written indelibly on tables of stone and stored permanently under the mercy seat in the ark, of which there is the original in heaven being God's throne. The Holy Spirit has written that very same law of love on the hearts and minds of those who love Him. Love is the...
