  • 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.

Jesus' commandments - opposed to His Fathers Commandments? - Really?

Are Jesus' Commandments opposed to God's Ten Commandments?

  • No Jesus taught in perfect harmony with the Father and the Ten Commandments

  • Jesus came to delete/oppose God's Ten Commandments

  • Jesus taught us to edit the Ten Commandments replacing some but not others

  • Jesus' commandments are based on Love - God's Commandments are not and are ended

  • I don't know - I have not given this much thought so far.

Romans 6 is a great text for that...

It is not a great text for "Go ahead - take God's name in vain now that you are a Christian.. IT is just what is expected of you".. As I am sure we both agree.
What exactly is taking God's name in vain?

Until you actually read them.. for example I reference Romans 8:4-9.

Were we all just "not supposed to notice"??

The point remains.
All Rom 8:4-9 indicates is the fleshly body is not subject to the law. Read the rest of the chapter especially v 14. Those who are in the Spirit are not subject to carnal laws (issued at Sinai).

You were given overwhelming evidence. However, as you say, you hang around here to show others truth who are seeking it.
Teachers never accept they could be wrong.
For the life of me, I cant see what's so objectionable to God placing in your heart the desire not to steal, kill, commit adultery, murder, bear false witness or covet.
However, for some it obviously is objectionable
There is no objection to God placing those things in our heart. Your point is that God writes the law (10 Cs) issued at Sinai. That can not be true according to Jeremiah.

I actually myself once believed the TC had all been abolished. But, when shown my error, accepted it, in humility!

I mean, if the law got abolished, you wouldn't need a saviour from sin would you!
God could just accept you into covenant if you repent, and that's it!



I was raised in strict legalism you see, terrifyingly strict legalism, and when you then see the light, it is easy to go overboard in the other direction
Did you miss Gen 3:!5? This promise came long before the law.

Hi bugkiller

Thanks for you input
Hi bugkiller

Thanks fir your input
Sorry but the problems with this site have increased a lot lately. That is the reason for the duplicate posts. They also seem to be having security issues.


But I really want to know if "Thanks for your input" is all you have to say about Gen 3:15?

Genesis 4 -- Murder is in "The LAW" as God tells Cain he is contemplating "sin".
Genesis 7 - clean and unclean animal distinctions in "The LAW" -

Genesis 6 - so much LAW there there that the sin of mankind is sooooo great -- must destroy the entire planet.

Genesis 26:5
5 because Abraham obeyed Me and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes and My laws.

I'm going to be honest with you. I tire of these sites at times. The only commandment that matters to many is:
Thou shalt not admit to error.

Law is written on the mind and placed on the heart of the believer. The believer knows what that law is for they are conscious they sin when they break it. And however people want to rationalise it, a christian is conscious they sin if they, steal, commit adultery, bear false witness, covet, murder etc.
Now if people want to be childish and start arguing about law from the TC not being written in the mind and placed on the heart of the believer, and then start picking out random scriptures to try and oppose the plain truth, I'm not willing to play such immature games. You told me i don't understand the purpose of the law. Clearly you believe you know far more spiritual truth than I am blessed in knowing, just be happy you think that is the case and we will leave it at that
