what Law did Jesus replace?

[Light hearted]

christians understand the dietary laws.
I don't have to explain, we can read them together.

flip your Bible over to Lev 11.

this is one of the problem we christians have, we want to interpret God's words.

Ozell, as you already know from past posts I am already familiar with Lev 11. I already admitted to eating pork.

Let's move forward. Now that I have already eaten pork, and have admitted to it.

Do we now consider it a sin to eat pork?

If in fact you consider it a sin, and there is no longer an animal sacrifice to clear my sin, what are my optons to clear my past sin?

Your statement of "one of the problems we Christians have, we want to interpret God's words". I don't think it is that we want to interpret them so much as the multiple interpretations there are.

answer me this if you believe you are born again

1Pt 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.


are you incorruptible?

you are born from the process of man and woman like me, we are from the corruptible seed, we were born into the family of man corruptible.

it is written

Jn 9:34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

we are corruptible.

when did you become incorruptible?

In other posts you quoted verses that mentioned that God is a Spirit, we much worship by the Spirit.

If God's Spirit is not within you, how do you worship in the Spirit?

Jesus says we are born through the womb, we must now be born in the Spirit.

Yes, for us, mankind, we are born by a corruptible seed, man's seed.

We will be born corruptible, our bodies will decay do to our sinful nature.

When we look at Jesus, not born by man's seed, but by the Holy Spirit, an incorruptible seed, his body was not left here on earth, it rose through the clouds.

Jesus also had the Holy Spirit come upon him after being baptized, his Spirit is now also incorruptiple. He is now fleshly incorruptiple and Spiritually incorruptible.

We, born of man's seed are fleshly corruptiple, yet when born again we now have the incorruptible Spiritual seed within us. This is the part of us that will rise at Jesus's return. We now have a perfect Spirit within us, of which leads us from the inside.

Thous the incorruptible seed that 1 Peter 1:23 is refering to.

Say as you may, as I mentioned in another post. It is God's chosing of whom will recieve the Holy Spirit. It is not obtained by working to earn it, for if it was, it would not be by Grace.

Ozell when you read in acts when Paul was filled with the Holy Sprit, do you now consider him dead?

I only ask this for I do not believe it, but your comments and interpertations lead to believe this is what you believe since Paul was also born of an incorruptible seed.

Since the Bible leads me to believe that Paul was filled with the Holy Spirit as he lived, could we not say that he has an incorruptible Spiritual seed within him even as he lives here on earth?

By what the Bible tells me is that we are Born again and filled with the incorruptible Holy Spirit as we live here on earth.

Your statement of "one of the problems we Christians have, we want to interpret God's words". I don't think it is that we want to interpret them so much as the multiple interpretations there are.

Now that you confessed your sin, and their is no animal sacrifce available

it is written that you repent of your sin to the Father in Jesus name.

Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;

it only works if you are sure that eating pork on violating Jesus ditary laws are a sin? DO YOU?

1Jn 2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

Now that you confess LH of your sins of eating abomnible things.

if you decide to continue since you confess that you are aware of the dietary laws, lets read what the Lord said he will do to people who eat perk and similar things like a mouse and pig.

I will be very direct to the point you read the rest of the chapter on your own.

Isa 66:17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.

who is this Lord that will come and consume those who eat adbomnible things as you do?

lets read a couple verse above to find out how thisLord will come.

15: For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16: For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.

In Isaiah we are reading about the same Lord who comes with flame of fire to consume those who break his dietary laws.

Now lets have Paul clear it up remember the Lord said line upon line precept upon precept, here a little and their a little.

2Thes 1v7: And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,

8: In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

9: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

10: When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

what is the Gospel LH? Genesis to Revelation,
what was the gospel when Jesus walked the earth LH? Genesis to Malachi.

lets read verse 8 again

8: In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

now go back and read Isaiah 66 again.

 

[ozell]

Light hearted;54122106]Ozell when you read in acts when Paul was filled with the Holy Spirit, do you now consider him dead?

in acts Paul was not dead, dead men cannot be filled with a holy spirit.

I only ask this for I do not believe it, but your comments and interpertations lead to believe this is what you believe since Paul was also born of an incorruptible seed.

no it don't, .

LH

was Paul a man?

Rom 7:24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

is this considered a incorruptible seed?

Since the Bible leads me to believe that Paul was filled with the Holy Spirit as he lived, could we not say that he has an incorruptible Spiritual seed within him even as he lives here on earth?

Rom 7:24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

read the second half of the verse

who can deliver Paul from the body of this death? Jesus!! when? upon his return which is the first resurrection. what happens at this time?
Lets read

1corth 15v
12: Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13: But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
20: But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21: For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22: For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23: But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

what takes place?
35: But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
36: Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:
45: And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46: Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47: The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
48: As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.

Born once into the man family-----born again into the heavenly family

49: And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

again this is how we become a incorruptible seed

50: Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51: Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52: In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53: For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

when was Paul, you, me raised incorruptible?


By what the Bible tells me is that we are Born again and filled with the incorruptible Holy Spirit as we live here on earth.

ask yourself when are you born again?

what if the incorruptible holy spirit get kicked out because you decide to fall way, backslide, forget God?

remember you are putting a incorruptible (God's word) into a corruptible body (our flesh)

 

[ozell]

Light hearted;54122061]In other posts you quoted verses that mentioned that God is a Spirit, we much worship by the Spirit.

If God's Spirit is not within you, how do you worship in the Spirit?

study this verse very careful, it packs a lot of punch to what we have been taught about the spirit.


Jn 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

How do you worship him in spirit?

Mt 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

is it safe to say that we are to live by every word Jesus says?

Did not the Lord say his words are spirit, and they are life.

If we live by his words which are spirit How are we worshpping him seeing we are flesh and yet not a spirit bieng?

we worship Jesus by living by every word that he speaks, because his words are spirit.

we consume words/information everyday, when we read Jesus words from Genesis to Revaletion we consume his words which HE called spirit.

is Jesus holy?

will that make his words holy?

then we have another form of the Holy spirit,

Not thee Holy spirit, but a another form of Holy spirit.

DEEP DON'T YOU THINK? yet these vwerse I put are overlooked in the churches.

Jesus says we are born through the womb, we must now be born in the Spirit.

when are we born in the spirit? we can't go through the womb again,
what birth are we waiting for if we live this life right?

I know you know? its simple!

Yes, for us, mankind, we are born by a corruptible seed, man's seed.

We will be born corruptible, our bodies will decay do to our sinful nature.

When we look at Jesus, not born by man's seed, but by the Holy Spirit, an incorruptible seed, his body was not left here on earth, it rose through the clouds.

Jesus also had the Holy Spirit come upon him after being baptized, his Spirit is now also incorruptiple. He is now fleshly incorruptiple and Spiritually incorruptible.

whe the holy spirit descended upon Jesus afterwards was he still in his flesh body?

remember Jesus commited no sin before he was baptized or afterwards.

now consider this statement

Acts 2:31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

Did Jesus body see corruption, did his flesh see corruption? No

yet his body/flesh died.

Mk 15:37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

3 days and 3 nights later what body did Jesus have?

We, born of man's seed are fleshly corruptiple, yet when born again we now have the incorruptible Spiritual seed within us.

will this make you incorrupt liivng in this flesh?

This is the part of us that will rise at Jesus's return. We now have a perfect Spirit within us, of which leads us from the inside.

when Jesus rose and he is our example,
what part rose?
all of him!

when Jesus raised Lazarus what part came forth?

all of him.

think about this.

Thous the incorruptible seed that 1 Peter 1:23 is refering to.

NO!

ask yourself as much as you read, as much as you try to obey, we all fall short. so what is incorruptible about you?

Say as you may, as I mentioned in another post. It is God's chosing of whom will recieve the Holy Spirit. It is not obtained by working to earn it, for if it was, it would not be by Grace

I'll leave you with the verse quoted above

Jn 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

is reading the word of God work?

 

[NatalieJan777]

You are only taking part of what Jesus said into consideration! You read "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets" and "For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven" But look closely; He says "I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." To FULFILL them. The law POINTS to Jesus Christ because we know we cannot be righteous to God on our own, for if we commit only ONE sin, we are not good enough. Jesus talks with the abscence of grace because... oh wait... grace hasn't been fulfilled yet! He hasn't died for the sins of mankind yet! The law shows us that we are sinful, and compltely un-righteous. But Christ, being the only righteous person to ever walk the planet, traded our sins for His righteousness. So when he says "For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven" He means that we can only enter heaven if we make the trade with Him, and accept his righteousness.

This response has layed heavy on my heart since I read it and I am sorry but I just do not buy it. If we dismiss Jesus' telling us that he did not come to destroyed the law, because it was before HE was resurrected and since we are now all under grace, then why should we even listen to anything else Jesus tells us throughout the gospel? Including the greatest and second commands?

We are all called to be HOLY for HE is HOLY.

We are all called to be RIGHTEOUS for HE is RIGHTEOUS.

Matthew 5:10 "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."

I am going to believe Jesus here and trade my wickedness for righteousness. For this to me is what is meant by bearing our own crosses and following HIM. This is what is meant by those who lose their life for HIS sake will gain life.

 

[nChrist]

Galatians 1:6-9 (KJV) 6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Colossians 2:13-17 KJV And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

Romans 8:1-2 (KJV) 1 [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

 

[NatalieJan777]

There is no condemnation in Christ Jesus, HE makes it easy for us to grow up IN HIM. If Jesus doesn't teach you to be in agreement with all that is in the Law, that would be the false doctrin spoken of in Galatians 1:6-9. We are not denying Christ Jesus and this is the doctrin we all should hold to.

now go back and read Isaiah 66 again.

Ozell, there is so much that goes against New Testament.

Correct, there is no longer an animal sacrifice, since the animal sacrifice became simply a religious act, it didn't turn their heart towards God.

I have to question the term of "Jesus dietary laws". I thought it was God of whom set the laws for Isreal. I figured it would be God's dietary law and not Jesus' law.
Although when I think about it...It would be better if it really was Jesus' dietary laws, that way it would make it more official for him to rewrite his own law, as we read below.

Looking deeper we can move to Mark 7,
18 “Don’t you understand either?” he asked. “Can’t you see that the food you put into your body cannot defile you? 19 Food doesn’t go into your heart, but only passes through the stomach and then goes into the sewer.” (By saying this, he declared that every kind of food is acceptable in God’s eyes.)

Just curiuous... why when i ask about eating certain foods, you never include this verse?

Now we could look at this in a chronological order. We have Gen 1:30, which states that every animal is for food.

Gen 9:1 Everything that lives and moves will be food for you.

Now we move forward to Lev where we have the dietary law.

Then back to Mark 7, where Jeses himself declares one unclean by what comes out of your mouth, not by the food one eats.

Moving on to 1Tim 4, 3 They will say it is wrong to be married and wrong to eat certain foods. But God created those foods to be eaten with thanks by faithful people who know the truth. 4 Since everything God created is good, we should not reject any of it but receive it with thanks. 5 For we know it is made acceptable[b] by the word of God and prayer.

Now chonologicaly Jesus overwrites the dietary law. So yes, I will turn to Jesus' own words and not be condemned by what I eat.

Once again, I ask, why don't you include these verses when I ask about "dietary laws".

Hi Natalie, I looked into gal 1:6-9. I notice paul is pretty ruffled about Galations following Gospel other than the Gospel of Christ, or a perverted gospel of Christ.

Any idea what would be other than the "Gospel of Christ"?

I'm just looking for a personal opinion.

There is no gospel, other than the grace of Christ; why continue to give the enemy a platform at the top of the non-denominational thread list, everyday?!?!?! It's obvious that after this long, those who would pervert the gospel of Christ, are not going to change their minds.

This thread and others by the legalists are not non-denominational teachings at all and probably don't even belong in this area of the forum.

 

[SoundCard]

The problem with using Jesus' death as an excuse to start following the law is the fact that Jesus died to set us free from the law and in His Resurrection we are now citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven. The law was the covenant between Israel and the Lord, though the law itself could only condemn sin since there is nothing in it to redeem people, the blood of bulls and whatnot only forshadowing the coming of God's own Lamb to take away the sins of the world (by those who believe in Him). So to say, we've been saved to go back under law is to say, that the Kingdom of Heaven is to be subject to the laws of this world, which is simply not true. God didn't set us free from sin to subject us to that which only serves to condemn it, by rather, we live by the Spirit of God in order that we should be seen as citizens of God's coming Kingdom, which is even now in His Spirit.

 

[ozell]

The OT is the Gospel of Jesus!

why can't you all understand this?

Jesus said look in the OT for they TESTIFY of me.

Jn 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

Jesus said he is I AM. He was before Abraham.

Jn 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

Who do you all think gave Adam. Eve, Cain, Abel, Noah, Abraham.........
and ISRAEL the commandments.

what God gave Israel the commandments?

who was in the wilderness with Israel?

Paul told you to not be IGNORANT.

1Cor 10v
1: Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2: And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3: And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4: And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

who was the ROCK in the wilderness with Israel? who is the CHRIST of this bible?


open up that big brain God has given you all and use it!!

 

[ozell]

The law was the covenant between Israel and the Lord, though the law itself could only condemn sin since there is nothing in it to redeem people, the blood of bulls and whatnot only forshadowing the coming of God's own Lamb to take away the sins of the world (by those who believe in Him).

you make it sound as though the gentiles, hamites and other hebrews outside of Israel did not sacrifce animals.

the Lamb that Jesus became took away what SC?

was it the LAW of animal sacrifce such as a lamb or bull,

or the law that say thou shalt not steal, kill, lie, commit adultery etc.

So to say, we've been saved to go back under law is to say, that the Kingdom of Heaven is to be subject to the laws of this world, which is simply not true.

Mt 16v17: And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18: And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19: And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

God didn't set us free from sin to subject us to that which only serves to condemn it, by rather, we live by the Spirit of God in order that we should be seen as citizens of God's coming Kingdom, which is even now in His Spirit.

Jesus said

Jn 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

lets listen to that spirit, listen to the words that is says

Jn 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

again

Rom 13:10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

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.

you use Jesus death and resurrection to keep the law!

what Law did Jesus set you free from SC?

show me the word legalist in the bible?

this in itself is false teaching, legalist is not in the bible.

what prophet, apostle dare you pin this word on?

or are you bold enough to lay this word at Jesus feet?

I'll leave you this from the great I AM.

maybe Stelow if you and others would put something of learning to make one of knowledge, and something to make one become wise, people would not post or pay attention to this topic.

this topic makes one open up the bible and read for themselves and not rely on people to control their thoughts.

the bottom line stelow is this

the law Jesus replaced is the law of animal sacrifice and most everyone here agrees, those here who have a measure of understanding.

most everyone here agrees that the commandments are still valid and must be kept, again I must stress those that have a measure of understanding.

so why do this topic continue to move forward?

the people have something to say or add.

Thank Jesus that they refuse to be led by blind denominational doctrine and those who come in wolf clothing saying they are non-denominational yet teach otherwise.

Now stelow answer me this

the Lord and the apostles did not have the NT in there possession, with all your wisdom and knowledge enlighten me on what they where reading and calling the gospel seeing it was not a NT!!!

Galatians 1:6-9 (KJV) 6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Colossians 2:13-17 KJV And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

Romans 8:1-2 (KJV) 1 [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

LOOK WHO'S BACK?

This response has layed heavy on my heart since I read it and I am sorry but I just do not buy it. If we dismiss Jesus' telling us that he did not come to destroyed the law, because it was before HE was resurrected and since we are now all under grace, then why should we even listen to anything else Jesus tells us throughout the gospel? Including the greatest and second commands?

We are all called to be HOLY for HE is HOLY.

We are all called to be RIGHTEOUS for HE is RIGHTEOUS.

Matthew 5:10 "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."

I am going to believe Jesus here and trade my wickedness for righteousness. For this to me is what is meant by bearing our own crosses and following HIM. This is what is meant by those who lose their life for HIS sake will gain life.

let me add Sister, and I put much emphasis on this to make a huge point to what you just said. we may disagree on much, but I agree on what you said.

comment on this Sister if you would so?

in the NT,
long after Jesus died and rose
in the last book of the bible
in the last chapter of the bible
in the middle of the chapter

the Lord said

Rv 22v
7: Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.

we are blessed if we keep the saying of this book.

8: And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
9: Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book:worship God.

how do we worship God? by keeping the saying of this book


10: And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.

wait a minute Sister, even thought Jesus came and died for our sins we still have the unjust, filthy and unrighteous among us?

yes we do!!

11: He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

12: And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
13: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

14: Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

blessed are those that do Jesus commandments because we will enter thought the gates of the city?

what if they don't DO his commandments can we still enter through the gates of the city?

15: For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

look whose not their in this city.

look like these folks did not DO the Lord's commandments.
