  • 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.

Confused about the commandment that was "abolished." (2)

I don't keep the Sabbath.... I'm not Jewish ;)

Is Yeshua (Jesus) your Lord?
"For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

Are you a man?
"The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath."

"How blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who takes hold of it; who keeps from profaning the sabbath, and keeps his hand from doing any evil."

One who is saved is seen as a sinner, one doesn't become sinless by keeping commandments as Jesus said one may not be a murderer by the 10 commandments thus seen as not in sin but according to him just the act of hating his brother he is seen just as if he murdered him.
Common knowledge.

The 10 commandments are not good enough for Christians to follow they fall way short of the righteousness God wants us to walk in.
If Scriptures is interpreted how you’re doing it, then there was no purpose whatsoever for God to give anyone His Law, since everyone from Moses, to David to Abraham were all believers who were saved by grace through faith. Why then did they as BELIEVERS continue to keep God’s commandments???

I see no use for that low standard when Jesus equated a higher standard of love to keep
False. Yeshua told us clearly in Matthew 22:40 that ALL of His Law, the ENTIRE Law depends and hangs on loving God and loving our neighbor. Not sure how English is interpreted for you, but for me HANG/DEPEND does NOT equal replace!
And even if you wanted to live by ONLY loving God, you would still have to keep His commandments, because He who loves God, keeps His Word, listens to His voice and walks according to HIS ways.

and even at that knew we would break these standards but our faith in him not breaking any standard set by the Law nor standard he himself set saves us.
Do you perfectly love God and love your neighbor at all times?

Again I ask you who is saved a Jew that never has murdered anyone nor broke the Sabbath nor committed adultery that rejects Jesus or a guy in prison on death row for murder that has accepted Christ as his savior and constantly deals day to day with hating people and lusting and other sinful thoughts in his head? Faith is all.... keeping laws is meaningless if one uses them as a crutch to claim a place in heaven.
Only those who have been born from above are saved. If a Jew or Gentile tries to obey the Law of God perfectly but does not come through the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE, no matter how hard they try they will not be saved. For there is no other way to the Father but through THE way, THE truth and THE life.

Abraham, Moses, David, Daniel, John the Baptist, Paul, Peter, Ananias, Elizabeth, Zechariah….me and I assume you---have all been saved through THE way, THE truth and THE life.
There is no other way.

However what Abraham, Moses, David, Daniel, John, Paul, Peter, Ananias, Elizabeth and Zechariah had in common is that they all CONTINUED walking according to God’s standard of righteousness. His Instructions.

Why yes sir no law means we are to commit evil acts. :p:D^_^ You should read the NT sometime.

bugkiller

Do you honor your parents?
Do you love your neighbor as yourself?
Do you give to the poor?
Do you worship God as the one and only God?


Why?

I see. Do you have some other passage of Scripture showing her sabbaths. Which sabbath would be mentioned. The phrase sabbath day covers only one day in the Scripture. BTW what other sabbaths are mentioned in Scripture in relation to something other than what God gave Israel? The above passage is clearly talking about the religious days of Israel given by God.

bugkiller

Really?
I just used your own passage to show you that you were incorrect in attempting to explain that "God's Holy Sabbath" would cease.

'her sabbaths' are NOT God's Sabbaths. This is made clear when you see the possessive adjective MY in the same context.

My is NOT her.
---
You shouldn't even be attempting to find an "end of the Sabbath" if you were to correctly interpret and accept the Scriptures as TRUTH.

Since it clearly says...

"Every sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually; it is an everlasting covenant for the sons of Israel." You'd be in BIG trouble if you think that the word everlasting has an end.

"But as for you, speak to the sons of Israel, saying, `You shall surely observe My sabbaths; for this is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you. Aren't you the reading master? What does THROUGHOUT your generations mean to you?

So the sons of Israel shall observe the sabbath, to celebrate the sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual covenant.'
Just in case you need yet one more, try perpetual. Does that sound like "ceasing" to you?

Then there are those who don't apply any of the written word because it was not personally addressed to their full names...

Now why would he be talking about non Christians here in GT? Is it because you consider him a non Christian? After all he does not keep the 7th day sabbath to my knowledge.

Your petty accusations are extremely feeble.

Do you call someone who lies a non-Christian?

What does "MY LAW" in verse 33 of Jeremiah 31 refer to?

It refers to the Law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus which has set us free from the law of sin and death.

Take a look at 2 Corinthians 3:6b-11 to see what the law written and engraved on stone is called.

It is the law of death and condemnation.

The law from which Christians are set free.

So as to serve under a new covenant, a better one.

The covenant in Christ.

:thumbsup: The covenant upon which salvation through Christ is offered that is nowhere to be seen in the Old Covenant.
