Obedience to the word of God is NOT optional -if we persist in disobedience we are not saved

[stuart lawrence]

Firstly you have to confirm why God told adam to not choose the knowledge of good & evil.

All you can do I run from answering the question isn't it. You can hardly admit you believe Christ came to destroy what God says is holy, righteous and good.
Your theology is a mess I am afraid. All you can do I ignore most of what is placed before you

Anyone who seeks to be justified in Christ by faith I him is in a saved state/a christian.
Paul tells us those in such a state are evident sinners.

Why did God tell adam that if he chose the kge he will die?

You keep running dont you, refusing to address the points made.
You disagree with Paul, peter, James and john. Its hopeless.
Once again.
Did Christ come to destroy what God says is holy, righteous and good"

This was what abraham was doing till God renamed him as father of many nations.

Becz of Christ's work God has renamed you as righteous but you choose your old name of sinner.

I am yet to hear from you who claim to not run as to why God told adam to not choose kge & die.

That's nothing at all to do with what we are discussing, another subject. Start a thread on it.

So you say Christ came to destroy the law which God says is holy, righteous and good. But you refuse to say Christ came to destroy what God says is holy, righteous and good.
That just shows the hopeless theology you have

David tells us the law of the lord is perfect.

The problem was the law of righteousness, sins power to condemn man through what was and is perfect.
What is perfect was not destroyed, the power of sin to condemn through what is perfect was destroyed.

You need to accept that, not argue against it

Is it another subject? Is stating so, another way to run?

If God says that knowledge of good & evil is not to be chosen as it leads to death, His grace revealed through His Son will certainly eliminate it. Becz God never changes His mind.

Trying to believe that the power of sin is destroyed while holding dear the kge that brought curses & death sounds funny.

Peter tells us to pursue knowledge.

All you are desperately trying to do I run from answering an impossible question.

Do you believe Christ came to destroy what God says I holy, righteous and good?

 

[stuart lawrence]

It may sound funny to you to believe the law remains, but the penalty for transgressing it got removed, but that simply shows your total lack of understanding spiritual truth

Pursue knowledge of Christ who told adam not to choose kge.

Law does not remain, though you seem to rip ephes2:15 from your bible, only good works to rejoice in Christ remains.

I do not trust in spiritual understanding. By His grace I trust only in Christ.

 

[stuart lawrence]

It is you who is ripping huge swathes of scripture out of the bible. Eph 2:15 refers to a law of rightwousness

The holy spirit leads the believer into truth.
You must feel he has led you to believe Christ came to destroy what God says is holy, righteous and good.

That says much

This is the covenant I will make with them after that time says the Lord
I will write my laws on their mind
And place them on their hearts
Then he adds
Their sins and lawless deeds I will remember no more
Hwb10:16

The cornerstone of the new covenant. The law God desires you to keep is transferred from an external law written on tablets of stone to an internal law written on tablets of human hearts.
The penalty of sin is removed, Christ is your righteousness, not observing the law.
There sins and lawless deeds I will remember no more.

It is a serious thing to preach incorrect doctrine. Be careful!

It also talks about the penalties of losing salvation which probably you believe in.

It is God's word which says that kge has to be avoided though you seem to have ripped that off.
