    Marriage-Divorce-Remarriage is not Adultery

    Those who walk in Christ do not observe the law...they are too busy observing Christ. Morality is for the carnally minded. To be in CHrist is to be spiritually minded. A human understanding is like a wall that men erect to keep out the truth from dawning on them...and saving them. Legalists had...

    Salvation really?

    Becoming a Christian in modern culture is not the same as abiding in Christ. When we abide in Christ we cannot sin because it is no longer we who are doing the living...it is Christ in us.

    Marriage-Divorce-Remarriage is not Adultery

    A person who walks in Christ needs no other law. It is when we walk in our own strength that we need to heed the law. The law is made for transgressors. So then the true purpose of the law is to indicate whether we are walking after our own carnal strength...or the power of Christ. Those who...

    Salvation really?

    It is not what a person says about themselves or thinks or believes about God that carries any weight. Does the person who thinks they are Christian walk in the power of Christ? Or not? Trying to not be a sinner is just another form of sinning. Especially when we consider that Jesus Christ has...

    Marriage-Divorce-Remarriage is not Adultery

    We who are no longer under the law but under the law of the Spirit of life are now betrothed to the Lamb. The wedding ceremony is for later. We can be divorced from the Lord through spiritual infidelity. Unlike the Jews who held a year-long betrothal...a betrothal in Christ lasts as long as we...

    Salvation really?

    Jesus de-sacrelized the world by bringing true holiness. Nothing is holy of itself. So a rock can no longer be called holy. You are stuck in a world that excludes the present reality. In Christ everything becomes holy. That is to the one who is in Him. Carnal logic cannot grasp the reality of...

    Marriage-Divorce-Remarriage is not Adultery

    Paul uses the divorce example to explain how Jesus can marry us when we die to our old nature in Romans 7. A woman is married to her husband as long as he lives...otherwise it is adultery. A man can marry again if his wife is unfaithful. Otherwise he is responsible for his wifs's subsequent...

    Salvation really?

    This arguing over which day is more holy than the other reveals a carnality of mind.. The early church met EVERY DAY. All days are holy when you are in Christ. When you are still under the law (rather than grace) then you make an effort to keep at least ONE day holy. The law is like training...

    Salvation really?

    Coming to this forum to "teach" us only reveals your lack. How can a person be taught not to be arrogant? These forums attract all manner of people lacking in fundamental ways...they are disfunctional in the body. They are looking to "minister" to others...but are really just smokescreening...

    Saturday is Sabbath day...

    This is a very condescending and self-righteous attittude. We hope one day to be as holy as thou ma'am!!! ;) In point of fact the Jewish sabbath starts on friday at nightfall and proceeds to saturday at havdalah. You'd think even a beginner Christian would know this... (just trying the...

    Salvation really?

    Very good! Somehow you seem to agree with Jesus that by obeying the laws to love God and your neighbour you are fulfilling the whole commandment of God! Mere coincidence? I think not! ;) Yes, to some the idea of following Christ instead of just taking a breather from time to time seems...

    How Would You Witness To An Unbeliever Or A Backslider ?

    Maybe tell them they are willful sinners if they don't take saturday off????

    Salvation really?

    I actually study the bible in Hebrew (I read biblical Hebrew) and am instructed by the Holy Spirit. So many have been indoctrinated by a "teaching" with an emphasis that comes from men. It is better to know the Lord through thre Spirit and have Him direct your steps along a fruitful...

    Salvation really?

    You are out of line here. If you wish to show us how righteous you are by a mechanical observance you are showing the type of observance you are doing...and that is a self-righteous stance. The Pharisees did exactly as you say. They would agree with you. But Jesus does not agree with the...

    Salvation really?

    This thread is being steered by a neurotic law-bondage person. I have stated that the New Testament is according to the Spirit. But this is lost on a carnal person who believes that the true obedience to God has more to do with coffee breaks than walking in the power of God.

    Salvation really?

    I do not TRY to obey the commandments by trying to obey them legalistically as you do. The NewCovenant is about a relationship and proximity to God in the Spirit. THAT is our sabbath rest...to cease from dead works...7 days a week. To cease from our own thoughts and judgments....7 days a week...

    Salvation really?

    LOL How did I know this was coming!!!! You are not keeping the 10 commandments. You are walking in your own understanding. You also are transgressing the Sabbath by having your own thoughts and doing your own thing. Do you really think you are more advanced than the leaders of Israel?

    Salvation really?

    I don't willfully break any of them

    Salvation really?

    If you are walking in your own strength then you will break them all...or at least many of them. Jesus said that being a religious nut is worse than being a deliberate sinner. It is a misplaced zeal this justifying taking a day off to relax and think you are some kind of saint for it.

    Salvation really?

    I have posted a more accurate version of your scriptures and although the King James is not as good as it should be, if you use the helps available you can get a good meaning from scripture. You need to chuck your version in the trash as it is teaching the will of Lucifer, causing all who read...
