"The righteous requirement of the Law" refers to the righteous things the Law of Moses required--there is no other (righteous) "Law" in view in Romans.

You are allergic to truth. The context shows that it has nothing to do with Sabbath keeping, because the "rest" is what the Israelites fell short of when God said "I swore in My wrath, they shall not enter My rest" and "Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts". It's talking about...

And what ever it is you believe in leads you to contradict the NT teachings, so you shouldn't being throwing stones. LOL

I see the moment from the film, which I do not re-watch, as a moment of reckoning--what all these conversations are about.

The Law has good commands, but we do not have goodness, so the Law is "weak" because it relies on sinful flesh (Ro 8:3; Gal 3:3); those who walk by the spirit fulfill the righteous requirement of the Law, as I've already stated so many times. Romans 2 refers to Gentile believers ("who show the...

Quit wasting peoples' time. You don't have an argument. Anyone who eats what he doesn't believe he should eat, even if it is clean for someone else, is eating an "abomination" for him and is "condemned" (Ro 14:5, 23), "storing up wrath" (Ro 2).

He never raised that argument, you just have a verse you're stumbling over. You should really ask the Lord about it instead of going about contradicting Paul, who knew Isaiah 66, who has given us authoritative exegesis. It seems like you don't even read what people write--it wasn't the...

Nope, Christ, affirming the Spirit of the Law, nullifies various Torah Laws (Mt 5, 19). The Gentile believers were deemed "doers of the Law" without even knowing the Law (Ro 2:13-16, 26, 27). If what you teach were valid, this would be impossible. Don't you consider those who don't live by the...

Sounds good.

Well, YOU have to hold to the NT exegesis of the OT Scriptures done by Paul the Apostle--that is what I am doing. When I see that there is NOT a requirement that all hold to the same view and practice concerning observance of days or classifications of clean and unclean, but are free to walk in...

Right, my points stand unopposed and unanswered. Thanks for discussing!

1. It's entirely reasonable to understand the distinction was not for the purpose of delineating which was "edible", since man ate NO meat until after the flood, yet the distinction was given before the flood! LOL And afterward the fear of man fell on the creatures, and those animals were for...

The righteous requirement of the Law is fulfilled in those who walk after the Spirit (Ro 8:4)--the entire Law is fulfilled in loving one's neighbor, and doing him no harm (Ro 13:8-10). Nope, that was for the old creation, and we are a new creation, so it doesn't pertain to us. "Resting from...

No, the Law is not a "transcript" of the Spirit. LOL As I have already noted, Christ condemns some Torah laws as "of the evil one" Mt 5, and others as "concessions" Mt 19. You don't know what you're talking about.

Also, you didn't even address the fact that Peter was not "careful" to keep kosher in eating with the Gentile--and his vision SPECIFICALLY was about EATING UNCLEAN FOODS, because God had accepted the Gentiles AS THEY ARE, WITH THEIR DIET, as was later clarified (Gal 2, etc), represented in the...

1. The distinction was enumerated before men ever ate animals, was given for the purpose of sacrifices, so it had nothing to do with eating them; after the flood, God said the fear of man will fall on the creatures, and they will be food for him, so even the Jews recognize the Gentiles were...

1. The Church Council didn't lay that burden on the Gentile believers (Acts). 2. Sabbath commemorates God's resting from creating--being we are "a new creation", God has created anew, so there is a new rest, and we are not bound to the 7th day sabbath, which is why it was never reiterated in the...

Actually, I see it as "the narrow way" Jesus described--each man walking by the convictions God's Holy Spirit has given them to walk by as unto the Lord, in His presence, with peace. It's God, the "all-consuming fire", consuming us--serving God in our very thoughts and spirits, every moment...

1. My view is THE "Gospel" view, nothing less nothing more. 2. I don't really like Kubrick's films (don't "rewatch" them), but there are a few aspects of some of them that I appreciate. I guess you recognize the officer. "Well, well!" It's a reflection of that "moment of reckoning" we have to have.

Number 1 : the Law isn't even entirely in force according to Christ, because He denounces some of its Laws (eg, making and keeping vows, permitted under Torah, He calls "of the evil one" Mt 5, and "any cause" divorce is revealed as having been a mere concession, not God's actual delight Mt 19)...
