Indeed, the The Way (Psa 119:1), the Truth (Psa 119:142), and the Life (Prov 13:14) all points to the Torah.
I believe Messiah is the embodiment of YHWH's Torah as a man (Jn 1:14, 1Jn 1)
Wow you're right. I didn't think that was true, but it is God's Word. He's the Word.
I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah . . .
I will put my Torah within them, and on their heart I will write it.
(Jeremiah 31:31, 33)
Who is within us?
The scribe that wrote the book of John under the pseudonym refers to the Greek name for Yeshua as that of Jesus.Why can't you bring yourself to refer to Him as Jesus? John His disciple does.
That's what I thought. So then the Torah would not have been set aside when Yeshua said; it is accomplished, from the cross?Indeed, the The Way (Psa 119:1), the Truth (Psa 119:142), and the Life (Prov 13:14) all points to the Torah.

It isn't set aside.That's what I thought. So then the Torah would not have been set aside when Yeshua said; it is accomplished, from the cross?
He fulfilled the law. The law said: the soul that sins must die. So, that is accomplished. He dealt with our old man, that is done away, not the Torah.That's what I thought. So then the Torah would not have been set aside when Yeshua said; it is accomplished, from the cross?
That's what I thought. I run into a number of Christians from time to time that argue the law was set aside by his statement.It isn't set aside.
"It is accomplished" refers to the prophecies given beforehand that prophesied about His first coming, and to certain sacrifices which culminated in His Sacrifice. Those prophecies & sacrifice were accomplished - not that Torah was finished and done away with.
The idea that He cast aside the Torah with His statement is ludicrous. The Torah itself defines the Way of substitutionary atonement and redemption (accomplished in Messiah). To get rid of Torah means to toss aside that very Way defined by YHWH. Thus, the Torah-less have no Way of Salvation at all.
Thank you.He fulfilled the law. The law said: the soul that sins must die. So, that is accomplished. He dealt with our old man, that is done away, not the Torah.
Romans 7
But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
Why do people think this means the law was done away with?
I don't think that's what Paul was saying.
I believe Messiah taught us to listen to the Pharisees when they teach rightly from Torah. I also believe that He taught us to reject their doctrines (their traditions).
My "takeaway" from that is that if a Pharisee was trying to teach me anything, I must compare what he says to whatever Torah and Messiah taught. If there is any deviation, then I am obligated to reject that tradition in favor of Torah & Messiah. I believe this is also in harmony with Deu 13:1-6, Deu 18:20-22, Isa 8:20.
I'm in utter disbelief.The scribe that wrote the book of John under the pseudonym refers to the Greek name for Yeshua as that of Jesus.
The actual disciples would have called the Messiah by his Hebrew name, Yeshua. (or Yeshu)
That's what I thought. So then the Torah would not have been set aside when Yeshua said; it is accomplished, from the cross?
Doesn't quite line up with God's Word either from the prophets or the Gospels. There is no salvation (eternal life) found in the law anywhere.It isn't set aside.

We're not denying the law existed nor that it applies to the ungodly. Gal 3:17-19, I Tim 1:9He fulfilled the law. The law said: the soul that sins must die. So, that is accomplished. He dealt with our old man, that is done away, not the Torah.

Jer 31 states the OC will be replaced by a totally NC. Deut 5 clearly states the Ten Commandments are the Old Covenant. Jesus very clearly states the New Covenant is in force as recorded in Mat 26:28, MK 14:24 and LK 22:20.That's what I thought. I run into a number of Christians from time to time that argue the law was set aside by his statement.
Thank you for that.
Thank you.
False.Doesn't quite line up with God's Word either from the prophets or the Gospels. There is no salvation (eternal life) found in the law anywhere.
Great! Now if one believes II Tim 3:16 we have God inspiring lies.All I can say is that the Pharisees teach both truth and falsehood.
Under the administration of the law all they had was forgiveness. It doesn't provide for salvation. The law was and is still powerless to change the heart. Rom 8.False.
Substitutionary atonement by a perfect sacrifice was described and prescribed in Torah. If there is no Torah to define this Way of atonement, Messiah's death on the cross becomes utterly meaningless, and He becomes just another man the Romans crucified.
I disagree.Under the administration of the law all they had was forgiveness. It doesn't provide for salvation. The law was and is still powerless to change the heart. Rom 8.
There is no eternal life or rest found in the law.
Indeed YHWH sends false prophets ... why? to test our love for Him and His Torah:Great! Now if one believes II Tim 3:16 we have God inspiring lies.
I kin cherry pick too. Now please explain your passage. As it stands you're implying they have eternal life. Nope. Now do you wish to provide the contest and start the discussion about your cherry picked verse, or shall I?I disagree.
"Happy art thou, O Israel: Who is like unto thee, a people saved by YHWH ..." Deuteronomy 33:29
No God doesn't send liars.Indeed YHWH sends false prophets ... why? to test our love for Him and His Torah:
"Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for YHWH your Elohim proveth you, to know whether ye love YHWH your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul ... And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from YHWH your Elohim, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which YHWH thy Elohim commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee." Deu 13:3,5
