  • 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.

Of course even the majority of pro-sunday scholarhip mentioned in the OP would argue for accepting this text of scripture.

Yes I do. Unfortunately you give it meaning it does not present. You have divorced words out of context and in disagreement with the rest of Scripture.

:confused:

out of context, you say?


ok, let's go "Big Bird" level. :thumbsup:


man says
"what must i do to have eternal life?"

Jesus answers and says "if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments".

remember, the question the man asks is in conjunction with salvation.


please show me how i'm out of context.

ok, let's do a simple analysis.

Jesus answers and says "if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments".

remember, the question the man asks in conjunction with salvation.


please show me how i'm out of context.

I choose to ignore you insult.

Both the Psalms and Paul disagree with you.

You promote the idea here that 1 can earn their salvation by keeping the law. You make keeping the law a requirement of salvation. This throws out the idea of grace and salvation being a free gift. Some appear to detest a free unearned gift. Doing so rejects salvation.

You promote being justified by the law and Gal 5 says no. The Psalms say no as well.[/quote]

please show me how i'm out of context.
:scratch:[/QUOTE]

I just did. I suppose you want me to quote a Scripture passage. I ask why. You will just throw it out.

You want more? Read John 10. To take your idea makes Jesus a liar.

So people that die by the Law (stoned to death) are dead the same by Jesus words as those who do not die by the Law?

What did G-d say in the beginning? Adam would die the day he ate from the forbidden tree; was Adam stoned to death? Did Adam die?

was not an insult! the verse i quoted is plain and you obviously reject the words of the Christ.

that's on you and not me.



Both the Psalms and Paul disagree with you.

how does this statement by you help me when we clearly see things differently? (where are your verses?)


You promote the idea here that 1 can earn their salvation by keeping the law.

i've been in this forum for five years and you can't find one post where i've said that one can EARN salvation by keeping the law.

i DARE you to find one.
:cool:


You make keeping the law a requirement of salvation.

when the man asked what must he do to have eternal life, who told him to keep the commandments, me or Jesus?


This throws out the idea of grace and salvation being a free gift. Some appear to detest a free unearned gift. Doing so rejects salvation.

for people that do promote earning salvation i agree with you on this one. :thumbsup:


You promote being justified by the law and Gal 5 says no. The Psalms say no as well.

just to prove that you don't know what gal 5 is saying, i dare you to explain the dichotomy between these verses.

i'll say now that you won't do it and it's because you can't.


Romans 2:13(NKJV)
13(for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified;

Galatians 5:4(NKJV)
4You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.


I just did. I suppose you want me to quote a Scripture passage. I ask why. You will just throw it out.

you've done nothing more than display the fact that you reject the words of the Christ which He spoke in matt 19:17 as you have not explained why Christ told the man to keep the commandments and you say we don't.

You want more? Read John 10. To take your idea makes Jesus a liar.

again, how does this help me when you and i read john 10 differently.

yeah, it would help if you added scripture so that i could see where you are coming from.

i know you disagree with me, but i do at least give scripture so that you can see where i'm coming from.

No Adam did not physically die immediately. Do you take this as God going back on His word? Adam did immediately die spiritually.

Was not referring to your verse.
that's on you and not me.

JR they have been quoted all over this area of the forum and to you as well. You choose to ignore them. Why keep posting them when you will only trample them? I love pearls (Scripture passages).
i've been in this forum for five years and you can't find one post where i've said that one can EARN salvation by keeping the law.
How do you secure eternal life? Remember you responded with Mat 19:17. What is the question being asked. Jesus gave a fool his desired answer. The Scripture says the only way 1 can have eternal life to accept the free gift you obviously refuse to accept demanding 1 keep the law. Do you know you can not obligate God? If you want reward for your works (law keeping) you will get it. It is called death (separation from God). Righteousness can not be obtained by the law.
i DARE you to find one.
Like I said you only ignore them and I like the pearls.
when the man asked what must he do to have eternal life, who told him to keep the commandments, me or Jesus?
You truly do not understand the man was guilty of violating the law. You can name no 1 who has kept the law except Jesus in all of recorded history. There is therefore no salvation according to your position. I will not fall into your despair. I was there for more years than I care to think about.
for people that do promote earning salvation i agree with you on this one. :thumbsup:
That is exactly what you do and mean when you quote Mat 19:17.
just to prove that you don't know what gal 5 is saying, i dare you to explain the dichotomy between these verses.
They are very plain and self explanatory. To provide commentary on them would be called a flame and get reported. I encourage you to read Gal 5 and believe what it says.
i'll say now that you won't do it and it's because you can't.
No as explained above and with very good solid reason also stated.
Romans 2:13(NKJV)
13(for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified;
I though you said 1 can not earn salvation (eternal life), but here you go saying that can be done knowing in your heart there are no doers of the law. So there is no justification and the law has done its job perfectly.
Galatians 5:4(NKJV)
4You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.
True and you do not accept it denying you justify yourself by the amended law you observe. Remember not a jot nor tittle shall pass from the law according to you. God can not change the covenant. There is no hope in your message.
you've done nothing more than display the fact that you reject the words of the Christ which He spoke in matt 19:17 as you have not explained why Christ told the man to keep the commandments and you say we don't.
No, but I also accept the words of Jesus found in John 3, 5 and 10. I have read the forum and it has been proven over and over you do not keep the law or even the 10 Cs you claim against Moses are not the law.
again, how does this help me when you and i read john 10 differently.
Certainly, it interferes with your position.
yeah, it would help if you added scripture so that i could see where you are coming from.
Why, I am a student of some others who have the same position I accept and you reject. They have done what you ask over and over very patiently.
i know you disagree with me, but i do at least give scripture so that you can see where i'm coming from.
Yes I know your false doctrine as it has been posted over and over here in the forum by you and others. I know it even with out your out of context Scripture passages.

Blue. Why do you ask?

so, since you're answering. (finally! ;))


maybe you will answer this.

when did the sabbath day become holy, (see ex 16:23)?

another one (i can't help myself! :blush:)

has the sabbath day ceased to being holy, if so when?

For who? And what Sabbath?

The Sabbath was never declared holy or otherwise for Gentiles.

If you want to talk about what the Sabbath provides, Jesus is my Sabbath and provides that rest God said they would never enter into.

I suppose this does not qualify as an answer for you.
