'And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.'...

'From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto His disciples, .. how that He must go unto Jerusalem, .... and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, ...... and be killed, and be raised again the third day. Then Peter took Him, and began to rebuke Him, saying, .. "Be...

@Ziggy @marks Thank you both. Within the love of Christ our Saviour, our risen and glorified Lord and Head, Chris zzzzzzzzzzzzz;)

Thank you, @Ziggy, Yes, and they did not understand what He mean't by the words, 'wist ye not that I must be about My Father's business' did they? Mary kept all these sayings in her heart, but she had no conception of what was ahead for her son, and like all Mothers, she sought his physical...

Hello again, :) * The risen Lord, through Paul, said to the believers at Colosse:- 'For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, .. and for them at Laodicea, .... and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh; That their hearts might be comforted, being knit...

'Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted His raiment, and cast lots.' (Luke 23:34) Hello @pleaseforgiveme, In reply #13 @Curtis responded to an entry of yours, which was very good, and I don't think I can improve on it. Listen to the Lord's...

Hello @Backlit, So much of the law given at Sinai related to simply 'loving your neighbour as yourself', didn't it? Dealing with disputes between fellow men: eg., if you accidently killed your neighbours cow; transgressions of that nature. So your question, 'Transgression against 'what' do you...

Backlit's question:- * Transgressions against what do you think? (Response No. 2) Hello @Backlit Just some further 'thoughts', in regard to your question (above) Eve was deceived and transgressed against God's known will, as did Adam (1 Timothy 2:14; Romans 5:14) Mankind has had the knowledge...

'Because that Abraham obeyed .. My voice, and kept .... My charge, ...... My commandments, ........ My statutes, and .......... My laws.' (Gen 26:5) Hello @Backlit, The word, 'My', is used five times in the verse above for emphasis, five being the number of grace. - Abraham obeyed God's voice...

Hello @Ziggy, The words of God, spoken to Isaac, that you have quoted from Genesis 26:5, is only part of the sentence, which begins at verse 2, 'And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, .. Go not down into Egypt; .... dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: ...... Sojourn in this...

'It really doesn't matter as Christ became our sabbath, in which we should rest in Him everyday.' Thank you.

"All that we have learned from our youth up must be tested and proved by the Word of God. Where we find it is true we must learn it over again, from God. And where it will not stand the test of His Word we must be not only content, but thankful to give it up; and receive Divine revelation in...

Hello @Robert Gwin, Thank you for responding, and with such a gentle spirit. I believe that every believer is 'set apart' unto God, and referred to as a 'saint'. Also, that every believer is placed 'in Christ' by God, as 1 Corinthians 1:30-31 assures us. I agree that the call to be Kings and...

Hello @GerhardEbersoehn, Forgive me, but I do not understand what you are saying. With love in Christ Jesus Our risen and glorified, Saviour, Lord and Head. Chris

Hi @VictoryinJesus Thank you: yes, I remember thinking about the verse 'faith cometh my hearing and hearing by the word of God', and realised that just as faith came to me by the hearing of the gospel of the grace of God, so I grow in faith by the same means. Always by 'hearing' the Word of...
