    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    Interesting. You don't obey the 4th commandment because you believe it to be voided by the Holy Spirit and spiritualized 24/7. Yet I do obey the commandment as best I can with the Lord's help, (as in every commandment) and you justify your authority to countermand God's specific commandment by...

    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    Answered in response to... Which raises a very important question. What shuts people out of heaven? Is it the observance of the Sabbath, or Sunday, or neither? No, none of the above. Then what is it that shuts people out of heaven? Disobeying God. Does that apply to Christians? Yes...

    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    How can you state such with a straight face? You blithely adopt that truth and apply it to yourself, but deny any such possibility that others have done so. What you say above is truth. But then you manipulate the whole context by claiming that same Christ who you claim is leading you is not...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Isn't God able to judge the sincerity or lack thereof of those who raise their figurative fist to heaven and bemoan their personal circumstances or see things taking place in the world that seem unjust, unfair, and downright despicable with innocent people suffering and the wicked gaining...

    Here is its answer to my first question... The article “Being Human” argues that rapid advances in AI are reshaping what it means to be human and that religious communities have both a unique vulnerability and a unique responsibility in this moment. �� It frames AI not just as a technical or...

    I read an interesting article in the December issue of Liberty Magazine, entitled, Being Human. The article asks some challenging questions as to how AI may affect humanity, and how individuals and society in general, will cope. It focuses particularly on the aspect of religious liberty. I...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    Yes, absolutely. Adam was given dominion over the earth. People who rule over dominions are called kings. Or princes. When Adam obeyed the serpent and in the same act disobeyed God, he surrendered sovereignty. The devil became the prince of this world. When the devil offered sovereignty to...

    Is it okay to blame God for stuff that is his fault?

    We all have the right to ask questions. God Himself invites us to... come, let us reason together. There is nothing wrong about wanting to understand better Who God is, and what He is like. Jesus condemned nobody for having doubts.

    Is the "free gift" of salvation really free? - Honestly?

    There are billions in the world today who have never heard of Jesus, and a population increasing at a rate we will never keep up with... without help from God. Whatever happens, however God chooses to handle things, we can trust Him to do what's fair. No-one will suffer unjustly. They may...

    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    What i testified to was your personal position of having no excuse for disobedience to God's commandments, seeing they are written in scripture and you carry them around with you everywhere you go. If obedience to all the commandments was the standard by which we judge another's profession of...

    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    If the letter kills and condemns at all, it kills and condemns those who refuse to obey that letter. Obedience does not bring death.

    “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: ” Philippians 1:6 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Philippians.1.6 If we are abiding in Christ and trusting Him implicitly, the above promise is ours. We may fail...

    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    And that is a blatant straw man which you cannot demonstrate. Indeed he was. But while he ostensibly is upholding the law of Moses, you, who claim to follow Paul's writings, claim the sabbath as obsolete because it is a part of the law of Moses. You are all over the place and your arguments...

    You have. You've reduced the ten commandments to 9. Do you read your own posts?

    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    The only watered down version of the ten commandments is the 9 commandment version you have embraced.

    Do the Ten Commandments still apply under the new covenant today?

    Was Paul correct in following this advice? “Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them. ” Acts 21:26 KJV...

    Is the "free gift" of salvation really free? - Honestly?

    For me, the cleansing fire as mentioned by such as the apostle Peter, is not literal fire. I believe a literal fire such as its believed by Catholics regarding purgatory and ultimately hell for the really bad guys, is an extremely poor conception of the character of God, and a poor...

    Is the "free gift" of salvation really free? - Honestly?

    Fair enough. So what of those who have no foundation? Or a wrong foundation such as Antichrist? With universalism I guess that doesn't matter either?
