yeah . i had enough troubles from the law . it is the seed that brings sin and death and then the devil into someone's life .

God taught me a way more related to His heart and character .

You can not know His heart or character unless you see Him in the prophets, the law, and the psalms as Yeshua said.:wave:

The law is a school teacher . but one cannot remain in school forever .

when you have a career . the relationship takes precedence .

and the scripture takes a secondary role .

if this is not your experience . that's fine . but don't be forcing other people to demature and stuff .

I speak about grace and trusting God and you automatically begin speaking about the law . do you know it is written that you need to surpass the righteousness of the pharisees to actually enter the kingdom of heaven? how are you gonna accomplish that if you keep acting like them?

Saying that Gods will includes abstaining from fornication is acting like a pharisee? No its more like a Christian who is speaking about Gods will. I was talking about the law of love and Gods will for us. And i live by faith under Christs law.

Now that sure enough clouds the issue and breeds doubt and confusion.

It only cast doubt about what you say but it highlights and affirms the teaching of Jesus and His apostles. Its about love. You're breeding confusion by saying that adultery is an obscure OT law that is not included in Gods will for us all.

I don't think so at all. Sorry we have this disagrement.

Abstaining from adultery, fornication and covetousness is not NC doctrine? Not stealing from or bearing false witness against our neighbor out of love is not NC doctrine? You must be confused.

The law of liberty is to love your neighbour as yourself and to not show favouritism based on outward distinctions . read James . it seems to speak to what you commonly express .

I never showed favouritism.

but you're missing the point . being under the law of liberty . means no longer being under the mosaic law .

the point is to judge with mercy

or your judgment will be without mercy .

that's what James was talking about .

What mosaic law? I only refer to the law given by Jesus and the apostles. Some of it just happens to come from mosaic law.

i think i'll just let you impale yourself with that sword .

besides you're totally off topic for this thread .

if being saved is about following a set of rules then Jesus died for nothing .
