• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

An attempt to eliminate God.

Your above argument does you no favors. Maybe you are sending a hidden message with your chosen font.

If you were not connected to God's in some way you were considered the other nations and you know how God felt about the other nations. God is calling all nations to be part of His government which has one Lord and one Law.

Not according to the promise given to Abraham.

This is magnificent! Those who say that God's Holy Ten commandments law is required by God of all Christians are the ones promoting the violation of the law, while those that say it is not for Christians are upholding the law. Simply magnificent!! Isa 5: Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Theft was outlawed in more than one legal system, so that's irrelevant.
Originating from who if not God? All that does is to perfectly show that it was not for the Jews alone along with the whole of the Ten Commandments.

Not according to Isaiah 56. Acts 15 says that the gentles would be of the rebuilding of the tabernalce.
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
16 After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:

Like I was once telling another guy who left, you are doing us a favor posting here giving everyone passing by a chance to see how illogical your arguments are for keeping the 10 commandments for Christians.

It's obvious that you're misrepresenting my post.

You advocated the notion of Jesus violating the Law, which contradicts the limited jurisdiction of the Sabbath He told Moses it had.
That unBiblical gymnastic you resorted to is to endorse your violation of the Law's testimony.
That makes you a law-breaker.
You haven't found one iota of support for your weird opinion that Christians should abandon God's rest and revert to the Sabbath God never conveyed to us. We have a Biblical unction to strive to enter into His rest, which is a commandment of God you obviously have no desire for.
Isa 5: Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Odd how you quote passages that condemn your own practice.

Q. Whom is James citing?:
Acts 15:15 KJV - And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,

Acts 15:16 KJV - After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:

Acts 15:17 KJV - That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.

Acts 15:18 KJV - Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world.

Acts 15:19 KJV - Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
Q. Where are the following items being quoted from?
Acts 15:20 KJV - But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and [from] blood.
Q. What is a synonym for the word "for" here?:
Acts 15:21 KJV - For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

There is no commandment to rest but that of Ex 20:8-11.
Isaiah 58:13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:
Christains are not to honour the Lord?????

That isn't true, and you know it from past posts. Citing the old covenant you're determined to violate -and erroneously claim that Jesus also violated- denies Jesus' role as the Mediator of the new covenant. The Sabbath was never given to you as a Gentile in a foreign land.
So instead of following the Biblical unction to enter into God's rest, your goal is to adopt the old covenant shadow that is periiodic and ends as many times as it repeats. That isn't God's rest.

You have done all you can to deflect attention from your claims. I don't think it is because you can't follow a conversation. I'm convinced you know what you post and know that you're in complete error.

Not sure if I understand your question. The Sabbath was a shadow of God's rest, which we have no need for once it has led us to God's rest that remained a promise during the tenure of the Mosaic covenant.

That's just a man made interpretation that was used to do away with the seventh day Sabbath. Jesus taught us how to honor the seventh day. The seventh day will be honored in the millennium, along with all the other commandments. God is preparing a people right now to rule and reign with Christ in the millennium. Practice the Law now so you will know what to teach in the millennium, that is if you are there to rule and reign with Christ and not to be retaught with a rod of iron.

Scripture isn't subject to private interpretation. Your claim is merely a method to dispose of Pauline epistles that are divinely inspired.

That's a big lie maco. The scriptures ask; What's the purpose of the law?.... What is the answer maco? Read it;

Gal 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.

So, the scriptures say that the law serve because of sin until Jesus should come.
Jesus taught us how to honor the seventh day.
Another big lie maco. After His annointing Jesus served as more than priests who also had authority to work on the sabbath. Jesus was found defending His works on the sabbath rather than teaching how to honor the sabbath.

You are relating my use of the word only to types and shadows. It goes much farther.
