  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

This division on the law of God is just what will cause the persecution of God true people.
In Revelation 12 the "pure woman" the true people of God have not only Christ but also overcome satan by The commandments.
17And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
If God's people are identified as keeping His commandments, where are you who oppose it?
We have the commandments of God. Love God and love your neighbor. And by His Spirit we are empowered to do just that. For our own love don't go very far. But With His love shed abroad in our hearts God can achieve what is impossible for man to do.

Ro 13:8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
Ro 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Ro 13:10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

Not the case only one man have not sinned and that's Jesus Christ...u are reading into what I said all wrong...I simply said that no man can keep the law willingly BECAUSE OF SIN. I think God gave the Law to show man that they are governed by sin and that they could not declared there own righteousness...and to answer you question about holiness only God is Holy not even the Law is Holy...I all I was saying is we all sin no matter what and if we didn't understand what a sin was why and how could we repent and ask for forgiveness...? The law gives us an idea of how we transgress against God...also again, only thing Holy in existence..

Exactly because love would not even consider these things. So therefore why would I need the law that tells me not to do these thing? I don't. I have the Love of God shed abroad in my heart and I follow after the Spirit. Being conformed into the image of Christ. :) The law has no bearing on me.

The law of love is fulfilled by the law so i must follow the law to follow love. But i do have Grace which is more than a word. Grace saves us from the law but Love fulfills the law and we are commanded to obey the law of love, therefor we are commanded to obey the commandments.

At risk of sounding dumb I have to ask what are those commandments? I've asked several time for the ones mentioned in Revelation to be identified. No luck so far. Is the question to dumb to be considered?

Brilliant absolutely brilliant. Now if anyone can tell me why we're delivered from the law and we're told to throw it, I'd be much obliged. Thanks!

What about this law?

1 Corinthians 7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

How about this
I agree that a Christian shouldn't ever sin again
Not with their thoughts,
with their heart,
and actions of sin should be rarely done.

Christians fulfill the law in that manner, that they love one another
Christians dont continue to sin, or else their repentance is a unrepentance

So "should we keep the 10 commandments" no i am not justified by the law
but the fulfillment of the law is love your neighbor, it just so happens that covers the 10 commandments as well

Why Does the love of God deny His 10 commandments?

I agree just wanted to add love the LORD with all your heart body mind and spirit.....this is the first and most important commandment according to Jesus.

The love of God does not deny the commandment more so the love of God instilled in us through the Holy Spirit is the sum of the ten commandments...if we loved people as we love God and God loves us...we will not have the heart to kill steal commit adultery...etc because no man that love God and Love himself will do those type of deeds to himself... even if he had the power to...and if he desired to then the Love of the Father is not in him.

This is why we are to first love God then love our neighbour as we love ourselves

So why did God give both? It is God that did this not man. Does God not know what He is doing/ Is he a fool? Where did God say that love replaces the ten commandments? Because we accept it does that make it accepted to God?
God wrote the ten commandments with His own hand, then He said to love God with all your heart Deut 6:
4Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
5And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
And Lev. 19:
4Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
5And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:

There are the ones you keep, the same ten commandments. Oh but you will only confess to keeping 9 or seek to keep 9.

Is this what I have been missing all the time? That Jesus is dead and I can have another god since His death brought an end to the law. I can remarry?

It does not so happen. God is not stupid. We refuse to accept the truth. The 10 commandments is of love. Love to God and to each other. If the The sabbath was not there all would have been fine.

Is that not how the ten commandments are structured? Do not the ten commandments show love in action?

Brother no question is dumb ...this is how you learn read exodus 20:3-17 here God gives the commandments to moses before he writes it in stone.

It says that someone is bound to the law as long as they live. Therefor the law exists and is not thrown away.


1 Corinthians 7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
