At church we have a kind of fellowship, well kinda sorta. We have a short class usually with little to no discussion, then attend a ceremonial worship type service at which further instruction is issued with no interaction. Where did fellowship occur? Then afterwards we shake hands and greet...

This could be posted here or in the sub forum "sabbath and the Law." I do not think Christians required to keep the law meaning the old covenant. Christians are under a much different order for their life. For instance a Christian is said to have fruit in Gal 5:22-23. I maintain that fruit...

Yes this is about the law vs what the NT teaches. God told Noah he could eat anything. God told the Israelites no they could not eat anything. The NT says we can eat anything without defilement (sin) if received with thanksgiving. bugkiller

What more can I say without posting everything I believe Jesus teaches? Is Jesus teaching when responding to questions about the law? Or is it teaching after being questioned when Jesus talks to His disciples after the event? Is everything Jesus says teaching? What about the behavior (life...

The law is basically the 10 Cs. At least Moses calls them the the covenant. That is also another name for the law. At least two NT authors (Paul and James) quote them as the law. What is the evidence for either the law has changed or no the law has not changed? bugkiller

It seems there is a favorite quote from I John about this. What is the truth? bugkiller

Some here say the Gospel was preached to Abraham; then post Gen 26:5 for support of the law as the Gospel. The Christian does have some law operating in their relationship with God. I think it is not the law. bugkiller

What law if any is the Christian under? The phrase "not under the law" appears several times in the NT. Is the phrase in the Greek text? What does the word "under" mean? Is there some partial meaning to the phrase? Please support your statements with quoted Scripture. bugkiller

15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. and 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. Does one allow something the other does not? Both are spoken by Jesus. Did Jesus give the 10 Cs? or was it His Father...

What is the net difference? Those who holler cheep grace always seem to come running to it from the law when it is violated. The same people say when the grace oriented people sin it is cheep grace. What value or force does the law have if it can not get what is demanded by it? If all one has...

Do not quote know how to approach this issue. So here goes - Most of the people I meet at church are just like the world in behavior and life styles. The singles fellowship at church was a real headache for me and I quite associating in that circle of people at church. My neighbor lady claims...

Now that can encompass a lot of methods and ways of gardening. I read many forums on the subject of gardening. Last week WNGD was on one of my forums. I live out in the sticks which gives lots of privacy. My question is would any one here consider gardening nude or naked? After all Genesis...

I think this is over looked in prepping. Just how much can a person put in their bug out kit? What are you going to do with dirty clothes? Dirty clothes wear out fast. bugkiller

Some say we are only obligated to some law such as the 10 Cs and not the whole law. It is claimed that we are not obligated to the ceremonial laws. But Scripture says laws against us. Is ceremonial things not celebrating? How could they be against us? What is wrong with celebrating? Still...

One of the issues here is whether sin is only and always strictly violating the law. How can this bee when the law was added as Gal 3 says? How can this be when Moses says the law wasn't given to Abraham? Now the Bible also says the law was until the Seed (Jesus) should come. Doesn't that...

There are many things said about the law in this forum both pro and con. Has the law been done away with for the Christian? or are Christians obligated to the law? Please provide support pro or con. The Bible is king here. Is the NT merely a continuation of the OT? What is your Bible...
