    SHABBAT SHALOM

    1. "New creation" means there is a new act of creating. 2. What do you mean "all things were created"? How do you know that? I get the impression from Scripture that we are NOT the first thing God ever created. 3. If the Sabbath is just an eternal place of peace where you worship God, then why...

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    How many times do I have to answer this same question? You ask "what need is there for another Sabbath?" The answer is : there is a need for another sabbath when there is another resting from another creating.

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    Sorry, your questions sounded rhetorical--I didn't think you wanted an answer (especially because my answer already answered them). The precedent we see in Scripture is that when God creates He then rests from creating. His rest then gets commemorated--called "Sabbath". So, when God creates...

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    So, you would disagree that there will be a new Sabbath in the New Creation? When God creates anew, He will break with the pattern He set before--NOT rest from His creative work?

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    (It seems clear why you disagree New Creation has arrived--it implies a New Sabbath.) Do you admit or deny there will be a New Sabbath when the New Creation arrives? You disagree that it has arrived, but when it arrives won't there be a New Sabbath?

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    1. "Evil to good" : don't sidestep the issue, it's "old creation to new creation". 2. Paul says New Creation has arrived. You come and say Paul says New Creation hasn't. Who should I believe?

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    Paul says there is a new creation. I go with Paul. Sorry. Now, when there is a new Creation there must be a new Sabbath.

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    Again, we are in a new creation ("Behold, all the old things have passed away, all things have become new."), thus there has to be a new rest from creating, thus there has to be a new commemoration of that resting (a new Sabbath).

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    1. So, still no answer. All right. Here's what an answer might look like : "No, there is not a New Creation." It would be wrong of course but it would at least address my argument. 2. "Entering in" of Hebrews is pretty much the opposite of what you're wanting it to mean : Hebrews is in part a...

    SHABBAT SHALOM

    New Creation, New Rest, New Commemoration (Sabbath)--7th Day Sabbath no longer enforceable.

    How many faiths does God accept as His?

    Show me in the Bible where other religions are called a "faith" rather than "unbelief" or "idolatry" or what ever--they're not "faiths", they're "unbeliefs".

    "Once Saved Always Saved?"

    Adam was "given" life (did nothing to earn it) but he lost what was "given" him didn't he?

    Jesus Is Our Truth, Reward, And Faithfulness So We Can Lie, Steal, and Fornicate?

    1. It's Not. That's why you didn't cite it. 2. No response to my argument I see.

    Jesus Is Our Truth, Reward, And Faithfulness So We Can Lie, Steal, and Fornicate?

    New Creation, New Rest, New Sabbath : no matter how the New Sabbath is defined, no one can be obligated to observe the old which is irrelevant. Did you never wonder why Sabbath-keeping was never commanded in the New Testament?

    Homosexuality Is An Affront to The God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob

    @Reggie Belafonte Sorry if there was some confusion regarding the title--I didn't want to say "An Affront to God" because there are satanists who frequent these forums and when they read "God" they do not interpret it as referring to the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob.

    Homosexuality Is An Affront to The God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob

    Based on what? In 1 Corinthians 5:1-3, we see that a man had his father's wife--and the Corinthian Church was boasting about the sin! With a precedent like that, I don't think there're grounds for this claim that "One who is 'truly born again' could never ... support such things." There's a...

    Christians Must Serve by the Law

    You were never obligated to serve by Law so you were never released from the Law by death, but you were released from the body of sin Romans 6:6, Romans 7:24-25.

    Christians Must Serve by the Law

    I just meant we walk by faith not by sight lol

    Christians Must Serve by the Law

    It's just reasonable, nothing special, to read before responding isn't it? One thing : the death we die with Christ is physical death, hence how the body of sin is done away with Romans 6:6. Without that physical death, a believing Jew would not be exempted from his obligation to serve by the...

    Sorry for this topic... is masturbation a sin?

    Well the same Jesus says hating your brother makes you a murderer. It's the same concept : having the feeling of the act is equal to the act.
