The reasoning above denies the obvious. If the law showed, “the filth of sin” and it, “was only to point out sin and lead people to Jesus to be saved”, then after this sin is acknowledged and repented of,should we return to the same? How will a sinner know he needs to repent today? How will...

Someone wrote: “John MacArthur holds to a similar view and writes, "Now what was the biggest barrier, the biggest genuine barrier between a Jew and a Gentile? What was it? Basically the ceremonial law, wasn't it? The whole Jewish thing." He goes on to say, "Let me hasten to say this. God has a...

Good day, You wrote: “Love is the commitment to provide the necessities for well being to those who are unable to do it for themselves just as one provides them for oneself. I Corinthians 13: 3And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have...

Good day Leaf, You wrote: “Thank you, safswan, for your post. There's lots of great points in it, I'll start with this first one that you bring up. I have sought to determine if the primary arguments put forward by seventh day observers are valid. By comparing those arguments to other...

Good day Leaf473, You say: "No, I'm not convinced of that. I agree that there is great wisdom in the law, and that the principles of all of the instructions in it are important." The fact that you are not convinced, in a sense, makes this endeavor of yours, a case of putting the cart before...

Greetings Leaf473, We have had this conversation before. Remember these: https://www.christianforums.com/threads/sabbath-and-sunday-in-early-christian-theology-under-construction.8271439/post-77164467...

Hello, This type of response was anticipated. If you had read the entire post you would have seen that I used the writings of the apostle Paul to explain his own statements. You should read again the post which explains how we are to express our love for another...

Hello, One instruction by the same apostle in the same book and same chapter does not replace the other. What you quote would be in addition to what I have explained.

Greetings, I do know Paul is just repeating the testimony of the Messiah but there are some who would not accept the testimony of the Messiah as being for the church and so Paul's writings were used to explain his own statements.

Good day, You do realize you cannot love nor fulfill the law unless you actually do the things which both love and the law demands. John gave the example: I John 3: 11For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12Not as Cain, who was of that...

THE MINISTRATION OF DEATH The apostle Paul wrote:"But if the ministration of death written and engraven on stones,was glorious,...which glory was to be done away;"[II Corinthians 3:7] Without careful and proper study of the word of God(Isaiah 28:9,10),the above passage of scripture may be...

THE REAL SHADOW "Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days: which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ."[Colossians 2:16,17] This scripture is the one most easily used to say, the Sabbath...

Just reminding, this is not entirely true. I TIMOTHY 1:8-11,EXPLAINED

Let me be very frank with you. I am not inclined to waste my time with anyone who is devoid of basic honesty and understanding. There are several things that cannot be contradicted, that were presented in the, “Clean or Unclean”, study. If someone has responded to the contents of the study...

The instruction about the fringes was, as were the animal sacrifices, necessary for the time, since Christ had not made His sacrifice as yet.That event made all the laws designed to motivate us, towards God's intent to have us show love,redundant as well as all the laws which shadowed the...
