Because that covenant was imperfect.

One of the reasons why we have power over sin is because we are no longer under the law, and because we have Christ's righteousness imputed to us. Sin utilizes the law to bring about all manner of concupiscence (Romans 7:8) and also,the motions of sins, that bring about all manner of fruits...

Yes, He found fault with the Old Covenant, Hebrews 8:8.

Good thing about it is, I wasn't looking for it. This message was preached last Sunday by the pastor of my church.

Now that it is clear that there is no one accusing me (because no one has condemned me), I wish to make clear what sins Jesus is not guilty of (in that He would have to take the punishment for my sins here if they were indeed committed). I have been accused of three lies: 1) I said, "Perhaps...

(peeked in for a moment to find this) : Jhn 8:10, When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? Jhn 8:11, She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin...

Rev 4:9, And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, Rev 4:10, The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne...

The law is indeed made void in that it no longer condemns us from the outside (Romans 6:14, Romans 7:4, Galatians 2:19, Romans 7:6, Ephesians 2:15-16, Colossians 2:14, Hebrews 7:18-19). But it is not made void in that it governs us from the inside (Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16, Romans 8:7...

We are commanded to preach the word in 2 Timothy 4:2. This commandment was given by the Holy Ghost, as 2 Timothy 3:16 shows clearly that all scripture is inspired by God the Holy Ghost. As a matter of fact, everything written down in the Bible is inspired by the Holy Ghost; And therefore to...

@BreadOfLife has been placed on my Ignore list; so further conversation with him will not be happening; which is not to say that he is necessarily right in anything that he might say after me in response to my previous posts to him.

@mjrhealth, Is it your contention that we ought not to look to the Bible for the truth of God?

This has been added by you because of your bias against the word.

Luk 6:37, Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Mat 6:14, For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: Mat 6:15, But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your...

Jesus is my Lord, of course. But this contention is, what? That we ought not to look for the Bible for the truth of God? Your answer?

I believe it means, that what you say, will bear fruit for life or for death. I'm not certain what "it" is referring to. Perhaps if you love the fruit of life you will eat the fruit of life; and if you love the fruit of death, you will eat the fruit of death. This is why I placed him on...

He did (Psalms 138:2).

Why don't you tell me?

@BreadOfLife, I am placing you on Ignore now.

Rom 5:9, Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Indeed. However, the truth of God's word is something that can be used to bring others to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ; and it also stands as the ultimate authority when spirits of deception (1 Timothy 4:1) come claiming to be Jesus Christ; for God will not contradict His word because He...
