Oh Helen...what to do with your posts?? First of all, nothing has anything to do with what "I feel is right". I always back up what I'm saying with scripture and/or theological beliefs. If you're going to disagree with me, it's not enough to just state this....you have to back it up with...

Actually, I agree with all of the above. I've often said that we should witness always, and when absolutely necessary, use words. Perhaps our example might be even more important than our words. But we need the words of Christianity too. This comes from reading the N.T. and studying some...

Yes. I DO have a problem with this. I haven't been transported to any cities lately; although I would like to be. Maybe Jesus meant this in a different way? Maybe He meant that He was confined to doing His work in the area of Israel while we will be able to bring His message to the whole...

There are two major covenants in the Bible. One is the Mosaic covenant which is a covenant of law, this was conditional. God said do this, obey and he will bless, failure to obey violated his conditions and punishment followed. the New Testaments covenant is one of blood but based on grace, it...

Which ones?

You said Jesus appeared in the ot. But then you quoted LORD. As you state above, that means YAWEH. Are you confusing what you're saying?? Jesus is Lord,,,not LORD.

I'm not a gnostic. But YOU are always posting scripture,,,so you must know. If witnessing, should you know? So many questions to answer. But, to answer,,,,faith is more important.

I wouldn't say anything Jesus could do we could do. He was human but He was God too. I find that faith becomes easier and easier.

Here are some... Edenic Adamic Noahic Abrahamic Palestinian Davidic Mosaic New It's a great study, but not easy to do alone. Some theologians start with the Adamic,,,but covenant language is present in the Edenic.

OK GP I can't continue to argue this. I'm sure it's on the net.

I know what I know and I know what I don't know and the more I know, the more I know I don't know.

Hi Chris What are rpg's? You write music? Is the all encompassing light God? Welcome!! It's good to have you here.

Well, it's a good thing I have the proper understanding of the covenants! As to God appearing as Jesus in the O.T. I agree that God was never seen in the OT. But you have YHWH in parenthesis. On phone .can't write.

There are more. Try again...

No. The Mosaic was a bi-lateral covenant. I will be your God and you will be my people,,,, IF they kept His commandments.

Whether simple or complicated, an explanation has to be correct. You didn't even supply the "basic" difference.

There was NO CONDITION set upon Abraham to do anything. The Abrahamic Covenant was UNILATERAL. God passed through the cut parts of the animals because ONLY GOD made the covenant and Abraham had nothing to do with it. Also, First you said there was a condition on Abraham which was to leave his...

Agreed. But the Covenant is already set when we walk into it. We had no part in creating it.

We agree. Good explanation.

Didn't Paul teach that those who can should give to help maintain the poor, the widows and also the missionaries (like him). Is this different? That was the church back then, wasn't it? I do, however, agree with @"ByGrace" and others here that it's good to give directly to those that are in need.
