Is it a controversy to teach faith ?

Is it a controversy to teach faith ?

To teach law, to teach division, to teach sin, to teach selfishness, to teach vanity, they are all favored in our world, and the forum is the head on these teachings.



Here is my attempt at teaching faith, because of how unbelief is taught, and how the faith does ot seem to answer against it, here.


Notice carefully ( as I seem to do) how when Israel set at liberty their servants, that was glory to the Lords name, and equally, when they caused all those servants to return and be subject again to their Israeli masters, this polluted the name of the Lord.

It is well known, no man lives for ever doing the first commandments contained in ordinances, set in stone, they live temporarily, then die in their sins ( as all in Adam die) and then we see form this Ezekiel testimony, how the people of Israel polluted the sabbaths of the Lord ( the same applies of course, that they could not keep the commandments of the Lord without breaking them, nor could they keep the sabbath holy to the Lord)

But the thing to know is, just by resting from a mans selfish ways for only a day, was a holiness to the Lord ( in that first covenant of men) and the people were not holy, ( we require the gift of the new covenant in Christs blood which is the gift of the Holy Ghost in us for that)....




Ezekiel 20:13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.

Jeremiah 34:16 But ye turned and polluted my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom he had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.





Either we understand or we do not, that when Israel made their servants subject to them, they destroyed liberty.

We then through Christ risen, are not subject to ordinances ( we are set free in liberty) and to touch not, to taste not, to handle not, all these commandments of men are perished, it is the doctrine of of men, and not the doctrine of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior and God.....



Colossians 2:20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Which all are to perish with the using after the commandments and doctrines of men?




Read with Spiritual insight and see what is said simply and righteously, how the Spirit is upon the Lord, to heal the brokenhearted, and preaching deliverance, recovering of sight, and setting at liberty those who are bruised ( of satan) and Jesus fulfilled that in front of Israel.

Then we ask ( in faith) why did Jesus fulfil that in the ears of Israel and in their synagogue....




Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.




Above in Luke 4, is so very significant, it tells of us being set at liberty from being bruised, and who understands that it was satan, who had the power of death, that had bruised man ?


Jesus then resisting satan for our sakes, was bruised for our iniquities, taking upon Himself all the cursing and sins that the devil had deceived man in, from Adam and onwards ( and why all die in their sins of unbelief) and all went their own ways, did their own things ( remember sabbath was an example of man even though still completely evil, of doing one day holy to the Lord by simply being prevented from doing his own pleasure for one day by law).


Now Jesus sets free the captives ( captive by satan) to believe in the freedom that Christ set us free from sin ( sin is in the law of sin and death which we are freed from/set at liberty from)


Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Isaiah 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;

Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.






The law we know is not made for a righteous man, but was made for the lawless, the law was added because of transgressions, till Christ came for us to go to God through Him, which is the faith of Christ.

The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath, and the sabbath just like the law, was made because man was lawless, was disobedient, so was forced to obey even though they remained without the Spirit of holiness, but this was a day was kept holy to the Lord.

Breaking of the sabbath was a law, punishable by death, when disobeyed, the same as Adultery, but Adultery was magnified in the law, to not look upon a woman in lust, or that was Adultery ( and destruction at judgement day) without even committing it physically. But that law is not a set law, nor is it enforced in the faith of Christ, it is in the heart by the Spirit, if the Spirit is in any man. Regarding sabbath, it too must be magnified and made honourable, or it makes no sense to only magnify all the rest of the things Jesus taught us, fulfilling the law in Himself. Then the true way to keep holy to the Lord is described, by being holy, not as previous by keeping one day holy, then being unholy on the other days. Holiness in all conversation, and fear of the Lord, without respect of persons, as the Holy Lord will judge every mans work according as every mans work will be..





Galatians 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

Exodus 31:15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.

1 Peter 1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:




Look carefully again, ( as I try to always do) and the devil reveals he goes by the commandments of the old testament in persuasion to Jesus Christ.

Look more and we read how satan bound people by illnesses ( as well as persuading man to keep law and die in the law of sin and death) and Jesus then reveals defeating of satans rules on the sabbath, by releasing his bonds on the sabbath ( the sabbath is a bond by which satan can accuse man to have to keep, knowing man is without faith when he tries to apply the laws of man)....



Matthew 4:6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.


Luke 13:16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?



Continuing into Acts 10, and Jesus went about of course, doing all that was the defeating of the hold satan had on mankind, healing all oppressed of the devil, and then look at the confirmation of Romans 8, how the creature ( man) was made subject ( in the first covenant when men could have no Spirit of Christs Holiness) but we were subjected to be delivered ( from satan) by the hope of Christ, ( we are saved by this hope) because the creature ( man) is delivered from the bondage of corruption ( delivered from satan) and then set free ( from that law of sin and then death) by the glorious liberty of the children of God ( the liberty in Christ taking our accusations of the one and only devil, away from us, onto His cross)...



Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

Romans 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;





Then Christ came in the flesh to destroy the devil, who accused us in the flesh ( by being in mans flesh) and deliver us, who were becuse of fear of death ( fear of the devil) then were subject to the bondage ( of the devil in the law of sin and death).

But we read the deliverance below, from the power of that darkness, to translate us to the Kingdom of the dear Son, turning us from that darkness to light, from the previous power of satan ( in the law of sin and death and as all die in Adam) to God, to receive forgiveness of sins ( following the deceivings of the devils ordinances) to receive inheritance being sanctified by faith in Jesus Christ ( and no longer sanctified in a day that made nobody and nothing holy/the sabbath)

This also is when the end of all things comes, when all rule of satan in laws, and all that authority and power has been put down ( as is being put down now by the testimony)...





Hebrews 2;14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

Acts 26:18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

Colossians 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

1 Corinthians 15:24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.





Does anyone see yet, the battle is between the letter and the Spirit, the letter gives death but the Spirit life.

Now, when Gods word came to us, they turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, they desire to be in bondage again ( to satans law of sin and death) to observe days ( sabbath days )

But what was against us ( the accusations of satan) was blotted out by Christ, it was contrary to us ( contrary to faith) and Christ destroyed those powers ( of satan and darkness) and that then speaks directly against satans deceitful word, how they still say we must keep their ordinances and laws and their weaknesses and bondages, but the law was that weakness, but God sent His Son to condemn sin ( condemned the man of sin, satan in the flesh) then the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in us through the Spirit ( of faith and not of law, as where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty, from sin, from satan, from law)...






Galatians 4:9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years

Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

Romans 8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2 Corinthians 3:17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.





So the devil who deceives the whole world is cast out, that is the accuser of the brothers, who did accuse man to keep law ( where there is law keeping there is no faith, and then death in the law of sin and death which is satans purpose on earth to deceive it)

Then we see why salvation comes, by the power of Christ, because satan accused us before God night and day previous to the overcoming of Christ for us, and we overcome by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of our testimony ( in the word of faith which we preach) and by not loving your life ( your own pleasure) until the death on any of our days.

Now obedience is by faith of Jesus Christ to eternal life, which works righteousness, and not by satans law, which works death in evil, so we be simple concerning evil, but wise to do the good, as the God of peace shortly will bruise satan under our feet, this is the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, being with us..



Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.


Roman 16:19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.
20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

I will finish on this attempt of faith yet once more for us.

Look closely again, for the last time, God gave the right judgments, the true laws, and good statutes and commandments. God made known to us, Israel and the whole world, the holy sabbath, and commanded us statutes and laws by the hand of Moses. God gave Israel bread from Heaven, and the promise of the land which God sworn He would give.

Please notice then with me, this is how the Jews taught to Jesus, as written, He gave them bread from Heaven to eat.

Jesus told them truly, Moses did not give them that bread from Heaven, but the Father gives the true bread from Heaven, for the bread of God is He which came down from Heaven, and gives life unto the world..




Nehemiah 9:13 Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
14 And madest known unto them thy holy sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses thy servant:
15 And gavest them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them.


John 6:31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.



I am finishing on this, because it is the answer of faith, to the talk of the letter, as we see.

All the commandments Israel was given, the sabbath, the bread from Heaven, none of it was life, which was brought into the world only by Jesus Christ, and the bread that He gave was His flesh, which He gave for the life of the world.

Believing in Jesus Christ is to have everlasting life, the fathers of those Jews ate manna and were dead, ( they also had the sabbath to keep and all the law) and all they did was them ending in death.

Then the bread which came down from Heaven, is for man to eat and to not die as He is the living bread ( and not death any longer in the letter of the law ) but faith now in the liberty and Spirit of the risen Lord to taste and live by and through..




John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
48 I am that bread of life.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

Com: "And there is more than only not working on the Sabbath. We need to be in rest, inside ourselves, all the time, and this in sharing with Jesus >"

"'Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.'" (Matthew 11:29)"


No, I say the rest of Jesus is in Heaven, and not on earth.

I say, all that is on earth, is temporary, is of the earth, and not Heavenly, the same as one goes into a sabbath and then comes out of it.

Rest for our souls, is when we follow Jesus, where He goes, as the rest is not to the wicked, it is in Heaven, where God came from, came to us, to bring us up to Him, by us being in Him and He being in us.

We turn not back, we press forward, we know the Lord is eternal, eternally was and is the same, and we be joined first to Israel, to understand the Lords calling, then joined to the Lord Himself, to know Him and learn of Him.

The ultimate rest of the Lord, is when the adversaries are gone, when the Heavens and the earth are made new, when there is righteousness only there, no sorrow pain, tears or death, this is why Jesus had to die to overcome this world and it';s man made ways, and rise again to bring us the new way to life..
