I disagree with you on one point. I think heaven is the peace of mind we have when we repent of our sin (Matthew 4:17).No, heaven is a place.

No, You are confusing peace, which is spiritual with a physical place,I disagree with you on one point. I think heaven is the peace of mind we have when we repent of our sin (Matthew 4:17).
How many sins do you have to repent of until you have peace of mind?I disagree with you on one point. I think heaven is the peace of mind we have when we repent of our sin (Matthew 4:17).
Of what value is heaven if it doesn't include peace of mind?No, You are confusing peace, which is spiritual with a physical place,
How many sins do you have to repent of until you have peace of mind?
But you don't obey the commandments. It is not possible for you to obey the commandments because you were born into sin, Psalm 51:5. You will never see heaven if you don't renounce your righteousness and trust in the righteousness of Christ to save you.Of what value is heaven if it doesn't include peace of mind?
Matthew 4:17 tells us heaven is at hand. What place is at hand?
To have complete peace of mind, we need to repent of all of our sins. Is it that hard to obey the commandments?
I don't obey the commandments?But you don't obey the commandments. It is not possible for you to obey the commandments because you were born into sin, Psalm 51:5. You will never see heaven if you don't renounce your righteousness and trust in the righteousness of Christ to save you.

The law and the commandments are one entity. If you fail in one point of the law you have failed the whole thing, James 2:10.Which commandment am I breaking?
Yes, so which commandment am I breaking?The law and the commandments are one entity. If you fail in one point of the law you have failed the whole thing, James 2:10.
All of them. All of the law keeping Pharisees went to hell, even the ones that were tithing down to the mint in their gardens, Mathew 23:23.Yes, so which commandment am I breaking?
Read the Bible and keep following what the Son of God Himself says to do:
John 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
The work of salvation has ALREADY been done. Jesus has done it all and he did it perfectly. All that we have to do is believe it.
The gift of God is the Gospel. All that believe the Gospel will be saved, Ephesians 1:13. Faith in Christ and his Gospel are the entrance into eternal life.This is true! And even the ability to repent and believe in Christ comes through the gift of faith that accompanies all who are eternally saved.
John 4:10 (KJV) Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
Romans 5:15 (KJV) But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
Ephesians 2:8 (KJV) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

I don't think you understand the purpose of the law.All of them. All of the law keeping Pharisees went to hell, even the ones that were tithing down to the mint in their gardens, Mathew 23:23.
The purpose of the law is to judge and condemn.I don't think you understand the purpose of the law.
There are certain things that we can do that bring trouble into our lives. Therefore, the Lord warned us not to do those things. For instance, if I rob a bank, I go to prison. Therefore, the Lord warned us not to steal.
I don't understand this contempt you have for the law.
No, the purpose of the law is to show us how to stay out of trouble.The purpose of the law is to judge and condemn.

I don't have contempt for the law. The law is the nature and character of God.
It may be for you, but not for me. I am led and directed by the Holy Spirit; you are a Pharisee.No, the purpose of the law is to show us how to stay out of trouble.
No, I just know that when I sin, trouble enters my life, so I try not to sin. That is what Jesus told us to do (Matthew 4:17).It may be for you, but not for me. I am led and directed by the Holy Spirit; you are a Pharisee.
