bbyrd, Paul seemed to think the first covenant -- the law -- was broken upon the death of Christ. Recall the promise of a new covenant by Jeremiah to replace the covenant that Israel broke: "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and...

Ok. What revelations have you received that are not already written in the Old and New Testaments? Rev

Scott, the passages from Ezekiel that I quoted earlier make the house-sheepfold connection. Did you not read those quotes? Rev

I don't see how you found "two folds" in any of that, Scott. I stand by my interpretation that the two folds Jesus was referring to in John 10:16 are the houses of Judah and Israel, which he rejoined into one house -- one fold. Rev

Don't know much about the UPC. I have been baptist over 50 years, and I am still not sure where baptists stands on the point about Jesus and the Father. I believe Jesus is the Father because Jesus said he is: "He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not." --...

Do you have some scripture for that, Scott, so I can see the context? As you are probably aware by now, I am a stickler for context. Rev

Thanks, but no longer a problem. I figured out how to fix them with a couple of mouse clicks. I am finally getting the hang of this board. I am a believer in the old adage, "trust but verify"; and that works both ways. Therefore, I typically place the written word front-and-center for all...

That is true of those who were led by the Holy Spirit. I feast on their words every day. For the record, Jesus is God the Father. The scripture is the Holy Spirit, Amadeus. That is about as philosophical as I care to be. Saying you are led by the spirit is one thing. Proving it is...

New and better way that God's Word? Read it again: "Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit...

Where does it say that? Where does it say that? Where does it say that? I believe you have been misled, Amadeus. Rev PS, what is going on with the fonts on your posts? They seem to jump all over the place when I reply?

If you stumble across a church loaded with Jesus Christ clones, please let me know. Until then, I will fellowship with Christians in my local church. Rev

Please identify those "revelations" you claim to have received from Jesus? I quote you: "I would rather know Jesus by His revelation, which most christians have no interest in." If you received revelations from Jesus, please present them. If not, are you merely pretending to have receive...

That is exactly what I believe, Scott. All prophecies of restoration of the two houses point to the generation of Christ in the first century. Peter and Paul emphasized the fulfillment of the restoration prophecies in Hosea 1 & 2: "and ye [are] a choice race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation...

I cannot imagine anyone being interested in your imaginary "revelations". Rev

At least now I know why I ended up on this board. You are bearing false witness again. I will agree that you are keeping them away, by leading them astray. You did bring up a good topic (by accident, of course). Why did Jesus say that we cannot enter the kingdom of heaven unless we become...

Those are good quotes, amadeus, but they do not address my question, which admittedly was poorly worded: "Where does it say the Gentiles were given the oracles of God?" The context of that question was, when did the Gentiles receive direct revelation from God, not who was able to read them...

Scott, I interpret the words "another fold" in John 10:16 to be referring to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Remember this prophecy? "And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these? Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord...

Your writing style is somewhat cryptic, so I thought you were dismissing Paul's epistles. You are bearing false witness, which is a no-no. Ignorance is no excuse. The Word of God was given to us that we might come to Christ, and that we, in turn, might lead others to Christ. Are you...

Christ's short work on earth was finished when this was fulfilled, Scott: "Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work...

Are you refusing to answer that question about "Saul or Paul"? Where does it say the Gentiles were given the oracles of God? You are confusing speaking in tongues (speaking in foreign languages) with the power the Lord gave some of the elect to prophesy and to interpret prophecy, for example...
