The number of male and prostitutes in the Vatican was established by Vatican insiders themselves. The researchers were faithful Catholics examining the corruptions of their own church headquarter state. They also interviewed priests in the Vatican who freely admitted participating in gay...

Absolutely! There is no such thing as a spiritual get out of jail free card. There is a penalty for sin, and someone has to pay it. It is the same when a criminal comes to court facing a million dollars in fines. Someone has to pay it, if not the criminal himself. So, if someone comes along...

I hear you. But how is $1,200 going to help a hospitalised person having to pay $50,000 dollars for his stay in hospital?

Keep on shouting and abusing people who don't agree with you!

What you are advocating that one can love God and others but be lawless in his conduct! Then you go on to quote God's moral law in the way we should behave! Can't you see that you are contradicting yourself?

But isn't what you are saying is compliance with God's moral law, which is loving God with all our hearts, and loving others as we love ourselves? Isn't the Ten Commandments summed up in that - that if we really love God and others, we will keep the Ten Commandments? Conversely, if we don't...

Read my post in the "are we free from the law" thread and that will explain our freedom in Christ.

No. The point I am trying to make is that Christ sets us free from the penalty of our failure to keep God's moral law (as apart from the Mosaic ceremonial Law which involves circumcision). Paul says that the Law (meaning the Ten Commandments) is holy and has not been done away with, but it is...

You are not listening, are you... Just repeating your assertion doesn't make it true. If you are promoting on this forum that Christian believers are free from God's moral law, to observe it, then you are supporting rape, murder, pornography, abortion, theft, lying, adultery, fornication...

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Silly me for taking the three days and three nights stated in the gospels literally! :rolleyes:

I can hear all the way here from New Zealand, the laughter of the US Hospital shareholders, who are raking in the millions of dollars from the coronavirus patients getting treatment in their hospitals, reading their bank statements to see the massive increases in their bank balances. I can hear...

You must understand that we are never free from God's moral law, in the same way that we are always subject to our civil laws. God's standards remain the foundation of our lives before and after conversion to Christ. We are not lawless. What we are free from through Christ is the wrath of God...

Well, it said about Cornelius that he feared God, and so he was aware of the Old Testament and most surely studied it, and so he was able to believe the angel who told him to contact Peter to come to him and share the gospel. But many of the Gentiles whom Paul preached to were not in any way...

I didn't mean you! I said this for you, not at you! My point is to give my attitude to anyone who uses excessive bold, and large coloured bold fonts to belt us over the head with their shonky views!

Yep! Only those who have put their full faith and trust in Christ for their salvation, and turned away from the works of the flesh as demonstration of their faith, and have kept running the race to the end, will find their names in the book of life.

Huh? :eek: When did I shift Easter? It is still on the same date this year!

Because we are not free from God's moral law at any time. We are free from having to endure God's wrath and the penalty for our continued failure to observe God's moral law. When Paul is saying that we are free from the Law, he is talking about the Mosaic Law. He was not advocating...

I wasn't referring to Jews and Gentile God Fearers who were aware of the Jewish Scriptures. I was referring to pagan Gentiles who had no contact with Jews or their Scriptures.

If you examine why Jesus said that, you will see that they professed to worship under Moses, but their lives didn't match their profession. They claimed that Abraham was their father, but they were not following Abraham's example of faith and devotion in their hearts to God. Therefore, because...

Clear as the nose on your face, and you didn't have to shout it either! :) Anyone who has to shout repeated denials shows that they are struggling with viable answers to reasonable questions and statements. Even after you have quoted the actual words of the pope, the denials will continue to...
