Where is this? did I miss it the first time? Gentiles were not included in the covenant made at Sinai. See Ex 12:48 Ah you probably won't look it up so here it is - And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.#278 where you then answered me that you were the one saying that the gentiles where included when they where always included if they chose to. The difference now is that Israel as a nation committed adultery and rejected Yhashua so the majority of Yahudim are non israelites. The law was a metaphor and the Israelites where the witnesses. We are still grafted in by the branch. We are not a different tree. Look closely and you will see that the the metaphors in the rituals of the Torah included YHWH's whole plan those that chose him and those that he chose. There is not 613 that was made up by the Rambam. A good source for you would be a book by Ken Power's called The Owners Manual (The Owner's Manual - 1 - Instructions and Signs)
There are 7 major covenants 7Steps. Here they are:
We are graft into Jesus and not Israel. Christian never become a part of Israel, physical or spiritual. There is no Jew nor Gentile in Christ Jesus per Gal 3:28.

So where is God obligate to be fair. I sure don't want Him to be fair. I want that free gift I do not deserve. The law says I deserve death also known as hell reserved for the devil and his minions.
Yep Romans 11:32 is very unfair, while it also reaches out to them with the same offer which makes it very fair.
Where is this? did I miss it the forst time? Gentiles were not included in the covenant made at Sinai. See Ex 12:48 Ah you probably won't look it up so here it is - And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
Ok, so educate me. Jeremiah uses the word chadash which can be pronounded two different ways like read, read and red. Spelled alike or sound alike, how do you determine the difference?
I offered as back for my idea the next verse which says not like. How can it be renewed if it is not like the previous one? You offered nothing but a literary word analysis and some off topic verses. So far in this thread all I have gotten is discriptions of movement. How does that change the law? ie the sabbath - the focus of the thread. I am accused of being anomos with no law and no restraint. Which I usually counter with Gal 5:16-24. I get no response on this reference. Why? I have also mentioned I Tim 1:9, 10 to show who the law is written for. How can you dispute this? What need is there to tell someone who does not murder that it is wrong, if they have the Spirit of Christ in them? Same goes for the other behaviors. The sabbath is different. Why has not God impressed me to keep the sabbath? I conformed by my will as Goid placed in my heart to accept His gift of life (redemption). Why has God not given me a desire to keep the Sabbath? You have to come to the conclusion that I am not redeemed/saved or else God would do this work in me.
I have talked to many folks and find a very interesting fact. They don't believe the way of their new profession when changing churches. I have a friend who was a Baptist, then an AoG who is currently SDA. The interesting thing is that they never observed the sabbath before coming in contact with the SDA. They say that God is the One responsible for the change of faith. I say what!! They must have never read their Bible before. The SDA are the ones who presented the idea to them. Now it is a fact that the ten commandments are taught in both of their previous churches. So one can not say they weren't exposed to the Sabbath. I ask again who convinced them to change their behavior - God or the SDA organization.
If Paul was head of the class - that is one of his peers exceeded his standing Phil 3:4-6 - Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:5Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;6Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. Gal 1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers. Why did he tell us to throw out the law? Gal 4:30. Why did he say let no one judge you for which holy days you keep if you keep them Col 2:16-18. Why did he say this? 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?10Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. 11I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
Now let us talk about new covenant some more. Not only do we have Jesus testimony about the new (kainos) covenant in Mat 26:28, Mk 14:24 and LK 22:20 all use the same word which is defined as:
1) new
a) as respects form
1) recently made, fresh, recent, unused, unworn
b) as respects substance
1) of a new kind, unprecedented, novel, uncommon, unheard of
Paul uses the same word in his discription of the new testament/covenant in II Cor 3:6 and proceeds to describe the old covenantin the very next verse. It can not be a renewed covenant. The law only condemns. It does not give life or provide redemption. Sacrifice only put off punishment for a year. Yet Jesus' sacrifice not only forgave sin permanently it also changed the heart which the law could not do. 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:
How open is your mind?
Well I guess I can say utterly amazing. You are not open minded at all. I think you said you were open minded.This is why we will never agree. There is 1 plan repeated over and over in different ways, with different metaphors and different facets. Presenting it and quoting scripture as Paul does does not make it right.
I did not say god was obligated to be fair (a straw man). But I did imply that God can't be evil. Although I don't agree with Galatians nothing in that verse proves me wrong as you want me to be. All those that accept God's plan and want to have a relationship with him have always been Yahudim (those that are related to Yah) he has never turned them away. So in that sense there has never been Jew or gentile and sense Yahshua was always (not an after thought or a fix) of Yahweh's plan of redemption as presented in the Torah we all become Yahudim through him. This is becoming repetitive
If you comply with Ex 12:48 you are no longer a Gentile but one that is born in the land IOW an Israelite.This does not say that gentiles are not included. What is says is if you want to be part of Gods people you do it God's way and become one of God's people not your way and become one of God's people. And I will take the hi road this time and not answer the sarcastic remark back for once.
Sorry, the sabbath was a law that gentiles were never under before, or after, unless u got scriprure to show otherwise?
Where is this? did I miss it the forst time? Gentiles were not included in the covenant made at Sinai.
I learned about Jesus through religious activity as a youth. Did I learn about him through religion? Some and alot through the Bible alone. I don't much care for commentaries and other books. I do use language aides, especially in chatting on the net with folks. I consider the words I find in the Bible with the definitions found in language aids as I have shown you with new and Jeremiah. The Bible backs up itself with clarifications in places like Jer 31.I already answered the first sentence way back.
As far as the Sabbath. That argument won't fly. How did you learn about Jesus? Did you have an experience like Paul. I believe if it was written on your heart you would know the significance of the Sabbath without having to look it up. Until I have it written on my heart I have to study scripture including the Torah, Prophets and the Psalms and look for the set apart spirit to help me understand.
As for Matt, Mark and Luke Check out the Nestle-Aland Greek NT/United Bible Societies Greek NT, and to check the Critical Apparatus to both on that passage. It gives a list of all the manuscripts containing the verse, and what words are there and what arent. Checking the oldest manuscript of Matt 28 26 , Papyrus 37 (dated to around 200-250 CE), there is no καινος/kainos there. You can also look it up on Logos. But although I am willing to admit that it can be arguable because it is in popular translations I suspect you won't, because it does not prove your point. It is not a definitive. But the word Kainos has already been placed in the arguable section so it is a mute point.
The law was part of a drama, a metaphor that needed to be played out until Yahshua came. It was not meant as a permanent situation it was meant to teach. Wich again proves that it is not a new but continuation, renewal of the previous. It still has the same representation just now we have a permanent one. It does not make the law obsolete it just makes it better it is step one, two and three as delineated in the passover unleavened bread and first fruit which Yahshua completed to the letter. This just connects Yahshua with the Torah. With out the Torah Yahshua would have just been another guy dying on the cross. BTW and never came with the attitude of educating you you are the one that continues to try to educate me. Ps I am tired of the insults, insinuations and assumptions that you are constantly making so I will stop here because I probably will have a bunch of messages from admin either warning me or banning me because of how I answer back.
Mal 3:6 refers to God's character, not His administration. I refer you to and provide Isa 28:10 - For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:Even you know that there is one law, the same for the Israelite and the foreigner.
Again even you know that if someone joined theselves to Israel they were subject to the same laws Israel was.
Please, please, please stop the foolishness.
In order to be one of God's people you have to be subject to Him and His laws.
You know that Jesus was the God of the OT and He is the same today, yesterday and tomorrow and that God changes not.
Stop the insanity.
Who did God tell Moses to call together? The mixed multitude or the Children of Isreal? Exodus 19:3- And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;Of course they were. Didn't you know that a large mixed multitude went of Egypt with Israel?
Greetings, Mr 7 Steps.This does not say that gentiles are not included. What is says is if you want to be part of Gods people you do it God's way and become one of God's people not your way and become one of God's people. And I will take the hi road this time and not answer the sarcastic remark back for once.
Ah, but we have a New Covenant, not according to the old.Even you know that there is one law, the same for the Israelite and the foreigner.
Again even you know that if someone joined theselves to Israel they were subject to the same laws Israel was.
Please, please, please stop the foolishness.

However, there was Jew and Gentile division. During the temporary span of the Old Covenant, one had to conform to the Mosaic covenant, in which the division of Jew and Gentile was then ended, however let it not be forgotten, that the very act of circumcsion, has shown that it was indeed a divisive covenant, for the Jews only, unless conversion happened, even unto marriage. SS.This is why we will never agree. There is 1 plan repeated over and over in different ways, with different metaphors and different facets. Presenting it and quoting scripture as Paul does does not make it right.

Greetings frogster. I must applaud your being tenacious on the Abrahamic covenant issue, so far the other memnbers have not given a serious rebuttal. I will now also wait to see if the other members reply with a scriptural response. You are using sound hermeneutics, and do indeed, show how Pauline theology, does show that the Abrahmic covenant is quite different from the Mosaic covenant. SS.Show mercy, answer again then, does scripture clearly show, that the Abrahmic cov, that came later, was for gentiles also, and it shows a clear distinction, of the Mosaic cov, that Gentiles were in no way a part of?
Scratch, I do support your debate style, you are quick, and you certainly are rather knowledgeable, to say the least. SS.Who did God tell Moses to call together? The mixed multitude or the Children of Isreal? Exodus 19:3- And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;
I did not see anything about a mixed multitude, did you?
Well I guess I can say utterly amazing. You are not open minded at all. I think you said you were open minded.
So I am curious what is your purpose here? You seem to be saying I am wrong and you are right. Are you seeking fellowship? Are you just bored. Are you seeking validation? What is the deal?
You don't offer much.
"(16)Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
(17)Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
(18)For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
(19)Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
(20)For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 5:16-20
The other SIX (a number of [hu]man) commandments are moral commandments for MAN. When Yahoshuah is asked about what commandment OF THE LAW to follow,And God spake all these words, saying, I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Exodus 20:1-11
Romans 10:4 (KJV)Follow the Sabbath: its the LAW.
