:amen:

Which would not be in "letter" only, but IN SPIRIT, right? Not just do not kill, but do not even hate your brother, right? :thumbsup:

Jesus sure did lift the standard, Adultery = if thou hast LOOKED UPON a woman to lust AFTER HER thou hast committed adultery ALREADY (in your heart)... Not just the outward act but the inward one :thumbsup:

Heres a couple "in vains"

Prov 30:9 Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.


Rom 2:21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?


Exodus 20:7 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.

Romans 2:23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

Rom 2:4 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

Romans 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

Rom 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Rom 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Gal 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, THEN Christ is dead in vain.

2Cr 6:1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.

Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world

Even James says if a man not bridle his tongue (even "this man's") religion is vain (as well)

If you do not keep the law, you do not keep God's Word.
If Paul was keeping the Law, why did the Judeans try to kill him ;)

Acts 23:14 Who-any toward coming to the Chief-priests and to the Elders say "to-anathema we anathematize ourselves of no yet nothing to taste till of which we may be killing Paul."

Reve 6:16 And they are saying to the mountains and to the rocks "be falling on us! and hide us! from Face of the One-sitting upon the Throne and from the wrath of the Lambkin

Well here could be 1 reason the Judeans tried to kill my bro Paul :)

Acts 21:21 "They were instructed yet about the apostasy/apo-stasian <646> thou are teaching from Moses, the according to the nations all Judeans saying 'no to be circumcising them the offsprings, no yet to the customs to be about walking'".
[Daniel 11:32,35]

2 Thess 2:3 No any ye should be deluding according to no yet one manner/way, that if-ever no may be coming the apostasy/apo-stasia <646> first. And may be being un-covered the Man of the Sin, the Son of the destruction.

Rom 2:21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

And yet Paul says...

Ephes 4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

Rom 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Yeah, the false teaching of the legalists leads to braking God's commandments in the name of God. :doh:

And here is what our Lord said about the Judeans and Moses :)

John 5:45"No be ye supposing that I shall be accusing of-ye toward the Father, is the one-accusing of-ye, Moses into whom ye have hoped"
[Reve 12:10]

Reve 12:10 And I hear great voice in the Heaven saying "now became the salvation and the power and the Kingdom of the God of us, and the authority of the Christ of Him, that was cast the Accuser of the brothers of us, the one-accusing them in sight of the God of us day and night.
[John 5:45]

If you are not born again, you will never enter into the kingdom of God.

Jesus said, "Verily, verily I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God...Verily, verily I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God...Marvel not that I said unto thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN." John 3:3-7.

What that means, is you must have His Spirit within you, to empower you to obey His Word/His law.

I will not peddle the Word of God, you either believe it, or you are lawless.

Born again is a work of God. A free gift. A gift of grace. Nothing that we do by ourselves can regenerate our hearts. Jesus died for us while we are still sinners. The law does not save. Never has and never will.

Keeping God's commandments comes naturally from saving faith just like I do good works for my wife because I love her not because I have to. If one has to keep the law for salvation then Jesus died in vain and we are still lost.

As far as them wanting to kill paul...

acts 22;21 And he said to me, ‘Go, for I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’”


22 Up to this word they listened to him. Then they raised their voices and said, “Away with such a fellow from the earth! For he should not be allowed to live.”

what does yet mean in the greek?:D
:)
I generally use "yet" in my translations for that word........

Strong's Concordance with Hebrew and Greek Lexicon

1161. de deh a primary particle (adversative or continuative); but, and, etc.:--also, and, but, moreover, now (often unexpressed in English).

#1161 AV &#8212; but 1237, and 934, now 166, then 132, also 18,yet 16, yea 13, so 13, moreover 13, nevertheless 11, for 4, even 3, misc 10, not tr 300

Strong's Number G1161 matches the Greek &#948;&#8051; (de), which occurs 2870 times in 2556 verses in the Greek concordance of the KJV

1211. de day probably akin to 1161; a particle of emphasis or explicitness; now, then, etc.:--also, and, doubtless, now, therefore.

Strong's Number G1211 matches the Greek &#948;&#8053; (d&#275;), which occurs 6 times in 6 verses in the Greek concordance of the KJV

If you do not obey the Ten Commandment Covenant, you are lawless.

Nope. The law written in stone has passed away. Nailed to the cross. The ministry of the Spirit is much more glorious.

:)

Young) John 13:34 `A new commandment I give to you, that ye love one another; according as I did love you, that ye also love one another;

Young) 1 John 2:7 Brethren, a new command I write not to you, but an old command, that ye had from the beginning--the old command is the word that ye heard from the beginning;
8 again, a new command I write to you, which thing is true in him and in you, because the darkness doth pass away, and the true light doth now shine;

Young) 2 John 1:5 and now I beseech thee, Kyria, not as writing to thee a new command, but which we had from the beginning, that we may love one another,

Reve 14:12 Here the endurance of the Saints is, here the ones keeping the Commandments of the God and the Faith of Jesus.
