    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    LOL Flush it! Sin before the Law!!! LOL Wrong thinking. We are not under the Law! We are not under any part of the Old Testament. We are under the teachings of Christ. Good is matter of behavior or character....now is that influenced by Christ....I would say yes....Do the scriptures...

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    This is what I am talking about....so much can be missed and misunderstood. Bible only....at least you have to understand that leaves out somethings....some very big things. Now I don't think a smart guy like you is going to assume that Paul thinks that being good and doing good is not an...

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    What are Christian morals? First off all and all, you have to get rid of the concept of Law. The teachings of Christ are more like a philosophy backed by the authority of God. A matter of the mind and heart. The Law was ridged and unyielding and full of holes. Unlike the Mosaic Law, a Christian...

    We have no Law to transgress.

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Neither Christ, nor I or Apostles said the LAW "was do away with" Still there for the Jews. Still there, but they do not apply to Christians. If you knew more about the Mosaic Law, you would know this.

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    They are not a fulfillment of the Law....Christ fulfilled the Law....one time and it done. It is a summary and open to opinion, that is why there has to be specifics and examples. As a whole the love God and each other is an overview. How do you show your love of God? How do you show your love...

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Hold that thought.

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Stay on track, we are talking about fulfilling the Law. Even if it was something that you could do....you would only need to do it once. That is why Christ was only crucified once. The Law was fulfilled by Christ and it is done. The Mosaic Law does not apply to Christians. We do not keep...

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Yea, but we are not Jews. What did Christ call those that added to the Law....Vipers! This would be seriously incorrect. The morals established in the New Testament are not an addition to anything. They supersede all.

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    You need to define fulfill. Is there something you do....that is a fulfill? Or is it kind of like, "I gave at the office." There is a lot more to the morality of the New Testament than this. So I ask, is this the confusion over Christian morals, it it that people do not know Christian morals?

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    So, what are biblical sins? Do you know, or do you want to talk about it?
  12. Grailhunter

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    But you do not place yourself above God. Those that make man-made Laws are playing god....is there a worse sin? Christ's standard are righteous.

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Christians no longer judge what is sin by the Law. For a couple reasons. For one the Law, has nothing to do with Christians .... not our religion. Two, there is nothing incomplete with Christ...no reason to look to the morality of the Old Testament. So then I ask again? What are biblical sins?

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    @Gospel Believer @Ferris Bueller OK, guys, what do you think are biblical sins? What do you think are man-made sins?

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Christ died for our sins and He forgives sins....most will agree on that
  16. Grailhunter

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    I guess it depends on your definition of righteous and good.
  17. Grailhunter

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    It denotes the spirit of that Law.

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Do you think Christ had a concubine? It was still legal....why not? .....I disagree with you and I am suspicious of the desire.
  19. Grailhunter

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    But that is not the real problem. You and I have been discussing this for a while now. There has to be a desire....a want. You need to be honest with yourself....because Christ knows. There is nothing good that is lacking from the teachings of Christ and the Apostles that you would need to look...

    Is smoking a sin?

    There are people that give up chocolate because it is from the cocoa plant. Not me! Part of this topic should be....should I do this? When I was six I was on a Farmall tractor with a 95 year old fellow. He cut off a piece of "Days work" tobacco and gave me a piece and I have been chewing most...
