I don't think I answered clearly the bottom line about the Ten Commandments, and your referring to just keeping 9 of them. Christians aren't under the Ten Commandments nor the Mosaic laws. It is not just the laws on sacrifices that were replaced. Read Romans 7:7 through Romans 8:9. Notice the...

The promise of Jesus, the Seed, was given to Abraham 430 years before. He was always the plan, not an afterthought or last resort.

Really? That's strange. If I were you, I would make a ticket with Admin to change that omission. :)

The Sabbath was the sign of the Old Covenant, Exodus 31:13. It was a physical day. But God's rest is not a physical day, but spiritual - grace. When a New Covenant is brought in with a new sign to its covenant, the old is done away. It is just as a will and testament. The Cup of the New...

Saying last resort implies "after the law." That's not true. The promise to Abraham came first, 430 years before the law. Galatians 3:17 Okay, talk to you later.

Your profile says "other faith." Why not just choose Messianic? Where is it written that Adam kept the Sabbath. We don't see it given to man until Exodus 16.

The point is Hebrews 4 is not establishing the Sabbath, but our entering into God's rest - grace through His Son.

As a last resort? No, it was the plan from the very beginning, even before the foundation of the world. But between Abraham and the promised Seed the Ten Commandments were brought in because of sin. But it could do nothing about sin in that it didn't do anything but show us our sin. It was a...

I'll slip this in before I go to church. Exodus 34:28 So he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And He wrote on the tablets the words of the COVENANT, the Ten Commandments.

I'm answering your latest question here. And no, I do not agree the Old Covenant was merely added to, though it is a good reference. Do you sacrifice? Do you keep the sign of the Covenant, the Sabbath (on Saturday), or the feast days? Do you eat pork? All those were also done away with. The Old...

I was responding to your statement "The New Covenant makes the Mosaic Covenant BETTER, it does not replace it." Galatians 4 points out that indeed it does replace it by casting it out. Do you not agree?

Hi Grace, can you go back to #294 and respond?

Sorry to chop up your post like this, but it is better for me to handle to have smaller posts. Here again, you are accusing Christians of heinous acts that a Christian does not do. Bearing false witness is one of the Ten Commandments you say you keep. As for the "other" 9 commandments, it is...

Why wasn't the Sabbath day given to man before Moses? Also, I'm curious what religion you are if not Messianic nor Christian?

No, I don't agree with this conclusion.

I agree Christians do not abide by some of these laws, but why are you accusing Christians of bestiality? I neither am cruel to animals, nor have sex with them. That seems a bit outrageous.

Are you assuming you are one of the chosen elect? How do you know that you actually are one of the elect and Jesus took away your sins? Are you sinless? Maybe He didn't choose you, and no matter what you do or how much faith you have you are going to hell. I suppose you will find out someday...

Here again it seems you are referring to keeping the Sabbath "day." And then implying it is a willful sin if you keep every day alike (Romans 14:5). Though Hebrews 4 refers to the Sabbath day, the Sabbath day is not what is being referred to as ultimately "entering into God's rest," but merely...

You are speaking of the Sabbath. What other "key" commandments are you referring to? Are they the laws concerning meats?
