Show me in Jeremiah where "a pencil" is "a burden". I'll wait.
It doesn't matter what the burden is. Maybe it's a whole pack of pencils. Maybe it's a heavy coat you're carrying in case it rains. Makes no difference.

I answered you, but you did not answer me.

John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

John 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

As I said, the word itself is the judge.

What's that sound I hear??? Oh, I know what that is, it is the furious sound of backpedaling, or maybe backsliding ...

The Jews interpret it as something as small as a pencil. If you want to say it's a bigger burden, fine, what weight is a burden? The point is, that you do not follow sabbath as originally laid out in the scripture.

By your own actions, you have set yourself up as judge when there is only one Judge and that is the *living* Word, Jesus Christ. Why are you so full of condemnation and contempt?

I keep telling you that. Hey, pull your fingers out of your ears, and remove your hands from your eyes. You will see and hear better.

1 Kings 18:27 And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.

Who cares? Pharisaical 'tradition', as I said, rabbinic and talmudic, just as I said.

The word of God, please, point to the verse, I am still waiting you know, which you said you could provide a demonstration from.

Back pedal some more. You might need bigger mirrors to see, so you don't hit anything ...

Dear Father, thank you for your creation and for everything you have done for us. You ask us to come to you when we have need, so please hold this person in your loving arms and show him/her your love, that is so much greater than we can begin to comprehend. If he/she is hurting in some way, please help him/her find healing and wholeness in your care. Let your Holy Spirit replace anger with peace, contempt with compassion, judgment with mercy, and the kindness that is in your heart, so that he/she may feel the joy of your presence every single moment of every single day. I ask in the name of your precious son, Jesus Christ, who is, was, and ever will be. Amen.

The commandments of God (Exodus 20:-17) are "spiritual" (Romans 7:14), never 'ceremonial'.
The 'spiritual is the heart aspect of the Sabbath. Ritual and timing are the ceremonial aspect of the Sabbath. The spiritual aspect is moral, that is to worship and love God. The ceremonial aspect is the ritual and timing of the Sabbath. Why is it that you consider the ceremonial aspect of the Sabbath moral law?

Those who condemn people who love and worship God prove that the truth doesn't belong to them. If it did, there would be no condemnation for others who worship and love God even if they didn't recognize the external sign of ritual and timing..

Ceremonial laws are those linked to the MOSAIC BOOK of the COVENANT for remission of sin and include things like the Sanctuary laws for remission of sin; sin offerings and animal sacrifices and the laws retaining to the leviitical priesthood.
You don't really define ceremonial here. Ceremonial laws are obligations to an external sign of ritual and timing. You in fact make the ritual and timing a moral obligation when it is an external sign of an internal reality. We worship and love God in our heart or not at all. The external sign is worthless if the internal reality doesn't exist. Can you guess what the sign of Adam and Eve's covenant with God is?



Hello Eloy, I am not sure what your talking about above.

What day was Adam and Eve created (Genesis 1:27-31)? What day was the Sabbath created (Genesis 2:1-3)? Of course the Sabbath was obseved.
No, the Sabbath didn't become an external sign until God's covenant with Israel. Adam and eve are on the other side of time and history before the fall. Immortal life doesn't produce a past.

Ex 31;16
16 Therefore the Israelites shall keep the sabbath, observing the sabbath throughout their generations, as a perpetual covenant. 17 It is a sign forever between me and the people of Israel that in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.”

God's WORD says the SABBATH is a sign of God's people and an everlasting ETERNAL Covenant (Exodus 31:13;16).
Yes, and if you understood eternal reality you would also understand that a sign isn't and a covenant is.

Yep seems pretty clear through God's WORD Eloy that the LORD'S DAY, the SABBATH is the SEVENTH DAY of the week. Seems God's WORD disagrees with you here Eloy.
The Lord I worship is no longer seen in OT signs, He came down to us in Person.

You may not know it, but when you say that believing what you say God's Word means is believing God's Word and then say eternal life is in danger if what you say it means isn't believed, you are doing exactly what bekkylin say's. I think your Scripture quote kinda makes that point. I'm not exactly sure how it pertains. As far as fingers go, if you stop pointing it outwards it will point inwards as it is supposed to for us sinners, otherwise how do we confess our sins?

You don't really define ceremonial here. Ceremonial laws are obligations to an external sign of ritual and timing.

Not really Eloy, I refer you back to post #422 linked click me. God's 10 Commandments are MORAL laws these are your duty to God (first 4) and your fellow man (next 6). They give us the knowledge of right and wrong, good and evil, sin and righteousness. There is no ceremonial laws in God's 10 Commandments.

The ceremonial laws are those from the Mosaic book of the Covenant for remission of sin. These are the ritual laws to do with the Sanctuary service, sin offerings, animal sacrifices, levitical priesthood and annual festivals.

Not at all Eloy, God's 4th Commandment is given by God for his people on the SEVENTH DAY of the WEEK as a celebration and memorial of creation, it is a sign that we worship the only true God of creation who is saving us from our sins by his Word. We worship God because we love him and as Jesus says; If you LOVE me keep my commandments (John 14:15)

No, the Sabbath didn't become an external sign until God's covenant with Israel.
Indeed, th is when it was recorded, no one said any differerntly
Adam and eve are on the other side of time and history before the fall. Immortal life doesn't produce a past.
Not really Eloy, Adam and Eve were on both side before the fall and after the fall (sin) because they were the ones who caused the fall and sinned against God at which time they were evicted from the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3).

God's ISRAEL in the NEW COVENANT are all those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW God's WORD. Gentiles are now grafted in to God's ISRAEL. SCRIPTURE SUPPORT HERE CLICK ME LINKED.
The Lord I worship is no longer seen in OT signs, He came down to us in Person.
No one worships God while CONTINUING to KNOWINGLY break his Commandments...

1 JOHN 2:3-4 [3], And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.[4], He that said, I know him, and keeps not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

Hope this helps.

Sir, you are a fine illustration of where extreme legalism always leads us, to the judgement and condemnation of our brothers and sisters in Christ. You are doing a fine job of showing us why we don't want to go that route.
You don't keep the Sabbath, as I have already illustrated. You travel on that day and you carry burdens, like we all do. So what is the point of keeping a piece of the law but not all of it?
Only so you can put heavy burdens on the shoulders of your fellow believers?

No. Its talking about liberty from the law. Notice that it exhorts us not to misuse that liberty?

These are the ritual laws

ot really Eloy, Adam and Eve were on both side before the fall and after the fall (sin) because they were the ones who caused the fall and sinned against God at which time they were evicted from the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3).
Adam and Eve are on both sides of what?

God's ISRAEL in the NEW COVENANT are all those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW God's WORD. Gentiles are now grafted in to God's ISRAEL.
Ok, what's that got to do with the sign of the covenant between Adam and God? The SIGN of the covenant in the Garden of Eden was not the seventh day Sabbath. You don't know the sign of that covenant.

You beleive those are ceremonial laws and they are, but you still aren't grasping the definition of a ceremonial law.

That doesn't square with your doctrinal statement about the universality of seventh day sabbath as a sign of a covenant.

Indeed, th is when it was recorded, no one said any differerntly
That is a record of when it was commanded. When it was recorded isn't substantial.

Amazing so in your view W2L,

Jesus, Paul, James and John are all lying and contradict themselves when they teach everyone to follow and obey God's Commandments by faith?

How do you reconcile all the following scriptures that disagree with your understanding of the scriptures?

Jesus
1. Jesus kept God’s Law (10 commandments) and said the Law and the prophets would not pass away (Matt 5:17-18)
2. Jesus taught others to follow the 10 commandments (Mark 10:17-21)
3. Jesus taught that Love is the fulfilling (doing) of God’s Law (10 commandments Matt 22:36-40)
4. If we break God’s Law by following man-made traditions we are not following God (Matt 15:3-9)
5. Jesus says if we commit sin we are a servant of sin and he has come to free us from sin (John 8:32-36)
6. Jesus taught if you love God you will keep God’s Law and abide in His Love (John 14:15; 15:10
7. If anyone is breaking any of God’s commandments and teaching others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven <least = lost> (Matt 5:19)
8. No one can obey God’s Law producing the fruit of obedience of ourselves and unless we abide in Jesus we can do nothing (John 15:4-10)

Paul
1. Paul teaches God's people keep the Sabbath Hebrews 4.
2. Paul tells gentiles that "what matters is KEEPING the Commandments of GOD" 1 Cor 7:19
3. Paul tells gentiles "it is not the HEARERS of the Law that are just before God but the DOERS of the Law will be justified... on the day when according to my GOSPEL God will judge all mankind" Rom 2:13-16
4. Paul asks that gentiles consider the doctrine of LAW "Do we then make void the LAW of God by our faith? God forbid! In fact we establish the Law of God" Rom 3:31
5. Paul tells ALL Christians that it is only the lost who will "not subject themselves to the Law of God neither indeed CAN they" Rom 8:6-8
6 Paul reaches all Christians under the NEW Covenant that God's LAW as known in Jer 31:31-33 is "written on the heart and mind" Heb 8:7-11
7. Paul tells all Christians that the OT text is to be used for Doctrine 2Tim 3:16
AND He never claims that "if I did not write it -- it is not scripture for us today" -- as one or two have imagined for us.
8. Paul tells all Christians that the 5th commandment is the "FIRST commandment with a promise" Eph 6:1-2 and is binding on all Christians.
9. God's Law (10 commandments) are holy, just and good (Rom 7:12)
10. God's Law gives us a knowledge of what sin is (Rom 3:20; 7:7)
11. The penalty of breaking God's Law without Jesus is death (Rom 6:23)
12. If we break God's Law we dishonor God (Rom 2:23)
13. If we sin we are "under the Law" and guilty before God (Rom 3:19)
14. We are saved by faith but our faith establishes the Law in us (Rom 3:31)
15. If we are saved by grace we should not break God's Law (Rom 6:1-7)
16. We should not break God's Law if we are under grace (Rom 6:15)
17. We are to serve the Law of God through the mind because that is where sin starts (Rom 6:17; 7:25; 8:4; 12:2)
18. It is God's Law that brings us to Jesus (Gal 3:24)
19. God's salvation frees us from sin so we can be obedient to God's Law and live a life of holiness (Rom 6:22)
20. We will be judged by God's Law and only those that are obedient will be justified because of their faith (Rom 2:4-13)
21. God's Law can only be obeyed through love and a changed heart which comes by faith in God's Word (Rom 2:21-29; 13:9-10; Heb 8:9-10)
22. If we break God's Law and are in unrepentant sin we will be lost and will received God's judgements (Heb 10:26-27)

John
1. John says it is only by keeping God’s 10 commandments that we know that we know God (1 John 2:3)
2. If someone says that they know God and do not keep God’s 10 commandments they are lying and not telling the truth (1 John 2:4)
3. We should purify ourselves as Jesus is pure (1 John 3:3)
4. Sin is the breaking of God’s 10 commandments (1 John 3:4)
5. Whoever is abiding in Christ does not commit sin (1 John 3:6; John 15:4-10)
6. If you are in unrepentant sin you have not seen Jesus or know him (1 John 3:6)
7. John warns us that only those that are obedience to God’s Law are his true followers (1 John 3:7)
8. If someone is committing unrepentant sin they are following the devil and not God (1 John 3:7)
9. If you are born of God and abiding in him you will not commit sin (1 John 3:9; 1 John 3:6; John 15:4-10
10. It is the keeping of God’s commandments that is the difference between those that are following God and those that are not following God (1 John 3:10; 1 John 5:3)
11. It is only by Love through faith that we can keep God’s commandments (1 John 5:3-4)
12. God’s true believers in the end days will keep all of God’s commandments through faith in Jesus (Rev 14:12; 22:14)

James
1. James says God’s Law (10 commandments) are a Royal Law (James 2:8)
2. If we break one of God’s commandments we a guilty before God as sinners breaking all of God’s Law and gave some examples of breaking God’s Law (James 2:9-11)
3. James says God’s Law is a law of liberty and freedom (James 2:12)
4. The 10 commandments (God’s Law) are the standard in the judgment (James 2:12)
5. If our faith does not have the fruit of obedience to God’s Law it is dead and not true faith (James 2:16-26)

Peter
1. Sanctification is to obedience to God’s Law (1 Pet 1:2)
2. We can only be changed from sin to obedience to God’s Law by the power of God and it will be revealed in the last days (1 Pet 1:5)
3. We should give up our sins to be holy because Jesus is holy (1 Pet 1:13-16)
4. Jesus is your example who did no sin (1 Pet 2:21-22)
5. Cease from sin and do not live in the flesh (1 Pet 4:1-3)
6. Judgement will begin at the house of God and sinners (those breaking God’s 10 commandments) will not be saved.
7. God has given us his precious promises and as we believe them God will grant us his divine power to live a life of Godliness (obedience to God’s Law; 2 Pet 1:2-4)
8. The Un-Godly (disobedient to God’s Law) will be like Sodom and Gomorrah (2 Pet 2:6)
9. If any turn away from God’s Law and are in unrepentant sin breaking any of God’10 commandments they will be lost (2 Pet 2:20-22)
10 God is not willing that any should perish but that everyone should come to repentance and turn away from sin to follow God’s 10 commandments because those that do not will receive the judgements of God (2 Pet 3:5-14)

...............

Yet in your view W2L Christians are free to lie, steal, murder, commit adultery, covet, dishonor your parents, comit idolatry, have other Gods and break the Sabbath because in your view they are at liberty from the LAW?

Sorry W2L, it looks like Jesus, Paul, James and John al disagree with you. You may need to go back and re-read your Bible if you think Christians are now free to sin. Good luck telling that to God come judgment day. You follow that belief at your own peril.

................

SIN is still the same as it has always been which is the breaking of God's Commandments (James 2:9-11; Romans 7:7; 1 John 3:4)

Those who CONTINUE in UNREPENTANT SIN will NOT enter into the KINGDOM of HEAVEN.

................

God's 4th commandment is one of the ten (Exodus 20:8-11) If we knowingly break it when God asks us not to we stand guilty before God of committing sin (James 2:8-12). If we do not seek him in repentance and forgiveness we are in danger of the Judgement (Hebrews 10:26-27)

Sunday worship is a tradition and teaching of man that has led many to break the commandments of God. Jesus says that if we follow the traditions of man that break the commandments of God we are not following God (Matthew 15:3-9)

There is not one scripture in all of God's Word that says that God's 4th Commandment is now ABOLISHED and we are now commanded to KEEP Sunday as a Holy day.

Who should we follow the teachings and traditions of men or the Word of God? Who should we believe the Words of men or the Word of God?


Hope this helps.

You made it up, and have not a single scripture. You are quoting you, as it is said.

The scripture declares that the entire commandment is "spiritual" - Romans 7:14. It doesn't say 'in part', it says the whole law is "spiritual" [full stop]

It is the 7th day the sabbath of the Lord. Notice "of" the Lord. It is His rest. This was before sin (Genesis 2:1-3; Exodus 20:8-11). Since when is "time" ceremonial? Show me a single verse in scripture that says that the sabbath of the Lord is "ritual". I'll wait.

Dear Father, ... Amen.
Matthew 6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

Luke 18:11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

Hypocrite.
