Why enlighten one to the law of Moses? One needs to be enlightened to the Love of God through Christ Jesus the Lord.
There is no difference. Gods Words of the O.T. were the Words of God in Christ, the LIVING WORD. The intentions of any commands are to the results of love.
Very good!
God's Laws are "holy, just and good"; at least that's what Paul said.
God says that He gave His Laws to man so that life would go well for him.
God's Laws are for our own good and to make us happy.
When you understand these things and obey God's Laws you will see how much better life goes than living it your own way.
Of course it takes faith, that is the kind of faith that not only believes in God but faith that believes God. You know, like Abraham did.

Reminds me of the dark ages when that is exactly what happened.. and all because the reformation was going on in the hearts of men.The difficulty with 'shadow legalists' is that in the final analysis they 'use' the commands to extract VIOLENCE against their neighbors RATHER THAN love. Violence meaning reeking of condemnation to neighbors, judgment to neighbors and ultimately some form of ETERNAL DEATH or PUNISHEMENT to neighbors such as burning them alive in fire forever...and of course the nearly complete exoneration of themselves under those same laws.

Notice it is just the covering that is removed...which means when reading the OC we should be able to see it in the Light of Yeshua.
2 Corin 3:14 But was calloused the minds of them.
For until the today, the same covering upon the reading of the Old Covenant is remaining, no being up-covered/ana-kaluptomenon <343> (5746).
That In Christ it is being-taken-away
So is the jewish/hebrew book of RevelationNotice it is just the covering is removed...
The Sabbath was created at creation at not with any covenant. Why was the Sabbath even made at creation about 2000 years before Moses if it was just for a covenant. Can you show me in the bible what is the covenant instituted by Christ and what it involves? What is the change made between both covenants?
It was already stated by it needs to be restated. Clean and unclean foods were known since the days of Noah. Before the law concerning those foods were given it was already known. Before the law concerning idolatry was given it was already known. Before the law concerning graven images were given it was already known. Before the law concerning the Sabbath was given it was already known. Many of the laws were given as a reminder to the people for things they already know and things they might have forgotton being in bondage for over 400 years. The digestive system of a pig back then is no different to how it is now. The purpose of the pig back then is no different to its purpose now. Why did God give laws concerning clean and unclean foods? Just to give us a set of rules? Does God just give a set of rules with no beneficial purpose? It is for our health. Why do you think the children of israel lived longer than the people of other nations. The God who created our bodies should know what is best for us so why should he decide in the NT that he should allow us to eat whatever we want.
So what are the rules for the people of the Davidic covenant? How is it different to the rules for those in the mosaic covenant?
There are a few threads on CF on that subject*snip*
how hypocritical is that really?
you cant pick and choose which sections of the bible apply to your lifestyle.
anyways, that isnt my point..
ive since read other sections which say eating pork is ok.
and its just confusing!!
i cant bring myself to eat pork at all since i read it, but i wanted to hear other peoples opinions on the matter...
and why some people just do what suits them
It is strongly advised to this day that if you visit any nation in Africa, you refrain from eating pork. Many of them do not process it sufficiently to remove the danger of serious illness due to bacteria in the meat.
We are also told not to drink the water in Mexico.
When traveling overseas, it is best to give heed to the health regulations put out by governments.
I have been eating pork products for almost 50 yrs and still do to this day, but that has been all in the US.
What the heck are you ranting about now TD?! Yes I eat pork products and no I do not keep the Sabbath.God did not say you don't need to obey Me if you are in the U.S.
If He did I haven't read it yet.
Chapter and verse please.
What the heck are you ranting about now TD?! Yes I eat pork products and no I do not keep the Sabbath.
SO? What is your point?What are talking about?
Don't you read your own posts?
This is your post I am refering to.

That's no excuse; being in the U.S. that is.
