Now that you know that, before Messiah, the Torah meant the entire Law of Moses, does that change the way you view Torah or the Law of Moses? Do you realize that Yeshua kept every Law of Moses that was applicable to him? Had he broken just one of them, it would be sin. Sin is the transgression of the Law (1 John 3:4). If we break the Law, we sin. Yet, Yeshua was sinless.
Yes, I do understand now that The Law of Moses, as was given to him at Mount Sinai is the whole Law if God.
I just had never understood what was meant by Torah. I thought it must be parts of The Law that were able to be kept at this time. I hear MJs referring to Torah and did not understand what that meant.
Thank you for explaining it to me.
I hope you understand that I have no agenda here, nor do I have a bone to pick with MJs. I simply did not understand.
I do have one more question at this time. Why do MJs not use the "o" in the word God?.
I have decided that I would like to understand MJs as much as possible without offending anyone.
Up til now I have used a somewhat agressive, somemes obnoxious way of dealing with my Mesianic bretheren. That was clearly sin on my part.
I want to dwell peacefully with you.
I should treat you no differently than my gentile brothers and sister and I am trying to understand your beliefs better so that I do not offend you. Many of the details of your faith are totally foreign to me.
MJs, I love each one of you no matter how the details of our beliefs differ. I see you as perhaps partial fulfillment of Paul's longing for the Hebrew people to be saved.
