    Well, what Jesus was saying is that it's lawful to do good all the time. The Pharisees were saying Jesus wasn't allowed to do good on the Sabbath, According to the Pharisees as above. Not according to the Commandment. If He broker the Sabbath according to the commandment, you are lost n because...

    Are you free to have sexual relations with your neighbour's wife, so long as you don't lust after her? Of course not. You would, like me, believe the 7th commandment to remain sacred, despite the clarification of its true intent from Jesus. Neither would anyone accuse you of trying to become...

    I was discussing the Sabbath on AI. I asked....One of your sources stated the following...believers could find the ultimate rest that the Sabbath foreshadowed—a rest that was spiritual, eternal, and based on grace rather than human works. I would ask the question, when was the true intent of...

    I'm using a pro platform offered free through my internet provider, Perplexity . First time I've used AI, is quite fascinating to have a conversation with an intelligent responder, and being referred to some excellent sources.

    The more often you quote this, and attempt to explain it, the more you reveal your abject ignorance of the gospel. As you actually said, a change in the law was required. Why? Because the law says only those of the tribe of Levi could serve as priests. Yet we have Jesus, of the tribe of Judah...

    I wonder if this is an appropriate time to share a conversation I'm having with AI. It has to do with the thread heading and topic. I'm not sure how this platform, or the moderators, would welcome such a conversation, any comments?

    God’s name….

    You don't get it. His glory is His name because His name describes His character. And God, above all else, desires we understand His character, because for 6000 years Satan has maligned and abused and lied about the character of God, and man has believed Satan and misconstrued and misunderstood...

    God’s name….

    I disagree. God's grace and mercy were God's first reaction. It is grace and mercy that offers repentance in the first place. It is grace and mercy that promises forgiveness. It is grace and mercy that promises a wolf that he can be born again into a lamb. And it is grace and mercy that is often...

    God’s name….

    I think that what God wants more than just to be known by a name, is to be understood. In other words, is more important to Him, and vital to us, even salvational, that we fully understand and know not just Who God is, but what He is. What His name actually means, for it is His glory. Moses...

    God’s name….

    Sad that you should come to such a focus. Shouldn't you ought to be remembering that rather than punishment, you would state, Throughout the history of the nation of Israel, likewise the value of obedience was demonstrated in how God responded to their disobedience.…. always with grace and mercy.

    God’s name….

    While I agree that it is essential to need keeping the commandments, both Jews and Gentiles, and in both old and new testaments, never was obedience the way to eternal life. Yes, it was a criteria, but the way was always by faith in the blood of the Lamb. Righteousness, comes by faith. Obedience...

    There is only one measure and one standard of righteousness. Christ and the law which He personified. “19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the...

    I think a global flood through which all but 8 were destroyed is a death sentence. Noah was a preacher of righteousness... As was Lot, and Jesus, after which judgement fell. There is another judgement coming with Christ's return. The only standard of righteousness given in scripture is God's ten...

    All of that sounds super religious, even spiritual. And every word is true in the right context. But in the wrong context, and being used in a manner that was never intended, (to justify disobedience), those words become profane. Like the strange fire of Nadab and Abihu.

    You would love to have it that way. But nowhere in scripture does it suggest that one replaces the other. Nowhere. Anywhere. And contextually, that change in the law is in direct reference only to Christ's priesthood, because He isn't from the tribe of Levi. You cannot extend is meaning to the...

    From this...to this .. That you have resorted to this tells me much about you. First, that you do not really understand scripture. Second, you presume I don't think I understand it either. The change in the law in that context has absolutely no connection whatsover with the Ten Commandments...

    Will you go to heaven when you die? - (or the other place)

    Will you go to heaven when you die? - (or the other place)

    The place of God throne, inside the sanctuary. No No Absolutely. That's where we'll be, until... The meek inherit the earth. And you've answered your own question as to whether there is still a heaven after the new heavens... So yes, but God throne will no longer be there. The Father and...

    What are we doing here?

    Sally, I believe it's going to get a lot darker yet. We have to get to the stage when chaos reigns, and the world will welcome the Antichrist as it's saviour. We aren't there yet. But we are getting closer at an increasing rate of knots.
