What Law is in or to be in our hearts?

[HIM]

2 Corinthians Verse 3:3 tells us we are the epistles of Christ ministered by the Spirit. Written, not with ink or even engraved in stone. But epistles made by the Spirit of the living God writing in the fleshly tables of our hearts.
We the Epistles of Christ were ministered by the Spirit which made us abled ministers of the New Covenant, whose sufficiency is of God and not of ourselves.

So what was written in the fleshly tables of our hearts? Or what is of the Spirit that has made us the epistles of Christ? Abled bodied ministers whose sufficiency is not of ourselves, but of God's Spirit? Why has God given us His Spirit?

As to why Ezekiel through God is pretty clear. He says that we will have God's Spirit to walk in God's statutes and keep, guard His ordinances and judgments. So where we walking? If not in the statutes for which the Spirit was given, then what spirit do we have?

Ezek 11:19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
Ezek 11:20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

Ezek 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.


We know that there are two spirits in this world that govern the hearts of men. David through God said the Spirit of our Lord and God will make His words known unto us. So what if what we think we know in respect to His word doesn't align but contradicts with what has already been revealed? Like was seen in Ezekiel. We are given God's Spirit to walk in His Statutes and guard, keep His judgements and ordinances. What if we think differently? Who spirit is causing that?

Prov 1:23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

Isaiah through God speaks of a covenant to which God's Spirit is upon us, and He has put His Word in our mouths and it shall not depart. But because of most departing from which has already been revealed His Word is no longer there, their own words are.

Isa 59:21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.

Moses through God in Deut29:1 speaks of this Covenant that Isaiah was moved to share. But in Speaking, God through him gives us more information. He says He will circumcise our hearts to Love the Lord our God that we may Live. With this circumcision, cutting away of our hearts He will put His Word in our mouths and hearts that we do it by His Voice, His Word. To which we are commanded to hearken unto. And this voice is saying that we are to keep His commandments and statutes contained in the Book of the Law. And turn unto Him in which have our do with our heart, and with all our soul. And His Voice, His Word is not in heaven or in the depths of the sea that we need send someone like Moses to get it. But as was said and confirmed by Paul in his paraphrase of these text in Romans 10:6-8. His Word, His voice is in our hearts and mouths that we do it.

However Take note in Deuteronomy 30:10. THE JUDGEMENTS are not mentioned as being that we keep in the hearkening unto His voice, His word that is in our hearts and mouths that we do them and Love Him with all our being.

Deut 29:1 These are the words of the covenant, which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, beside the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.
Deut 30:10 If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.
Deut 30:11 For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.
Deut 30:12 It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
Deut 30:13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
Deut 30:14 But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.


Deut 30:6 And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.


So when we get to Jeremiah and His giving of the New Covenant, we should take note that in Deut 29-30 it was already given. Just in different words. And in these words we see what Law God has put in our hearts and our inward parts, minds that we need not teach our neighbor and brother to know the Lord. And that law is the Book of the Law with the statutes and commandments of our Lord and God.



The issue was and is today. Most do not accept it or keep in it. Therefore when Jeremiah speaks it through God, He states it as something in the future. In reality it was manifested in the future more so in Moses' ministry in Christ and in His disciples through His death and resurrection. But as was said most don't believe and stay within His guidance so here we are teaching our brother.



Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

So what was written in the fleshly tables of our hearts? Or what is of the Spirit that has made us the epistles of Christ? Abled bodied ministers whose sufficiency is not of ourselves, but of God's Spirit? Why has God given us His Spirit?

Paul answered part of your question with the verses that followed verse 6. We all know that if you were to answer your own question it would be the ten commandments and Paul called the ten the ministry of death. So, you believe it is the ministry of death that is written on our hearts. How is that working for you? Later in the same paragraph, Paul states the ministry of death as the guide to the Israelites was done away (KJV) and replaced with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. I believe the command written on our hearts is Jesus' command to love others as He loves us.

Oh, yes. God argues with Himself. The Holy Spirit and the Son are in disagreement.

John 15: 26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

Seems you don't think Jesus has any clue as to what He is talking about.

Paul was talking about the penalty of sin paid by Christ, not the commandments themselves, remember Paul also said the commandments are just and good. to propagate that the commandments are void is against scripture.

I voted something else. Which is the law of faith....
Ro 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

Did Jesus speak about the law of faith? what does it mean exactly in practice?, does this align with Christ's Gospel?

Thanks,

 

[ralliann]

Did Jesus speak about the law of faith?

Jesus always talked about having faith, for miracles, what he was telling them concerning himself..
Paul did. So does the book of Hebrews Beginning Heb 4 from the beginning with Abel

what does it mean exactly in practice?, does this align with Christ's Gospel?

Thanks,

Like these
Heb 11
4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death;
6.( for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.)
7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house;

Abraham...
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

Sarah...
11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.

Abraham
17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: {Of: or, To }
19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.

Isaac.....
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.

Joseph...
22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. {made … : or, remembered }

Parents of Moses.....
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.

Moses...(does not mention it here but Moses also brought Josephs bones out of Egypt)...
24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. {of Christ: or, for Christ }
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.

If you read the op you would know I did not say the Ten Commandments. Why do you even bother to respond to things you do not read? Or it is maybe you just ignore what is read and go with what you think? Or maybe you have a comprehension issue? I don't know but There is definitely an issue. I wish I could help.

Abel offered a better sacrifice than than who?

Than Abel. But you know what it say's why ask?

Than Abel.

Abel offered a better sacrifice than Abel?

So what was written in the fleshly tables of our hearts?

Not 'was' but will be.

The Tables of the Heart represent our Genome (DNA).

The Redeemed will get a major overhaul.

The Law will not have to be taught to us because it will be written in our Genetics (i.e., in our Soul).

These verses explain it...

Romans 2:14-15
"For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another"

The key phrase is 'do by nature'. In other words, by natural Genetics.

The Law has to do with DNA. Do you understand?

Humans are born with part of the Law already written in the Table Genome of the Heart. Thus, they instinctively do what is right by nature.

The issue is that the Law that is written is partially corrupted and not complete. It needs an 'upgrade' and 'bug fix'.

 

[Gary K]

Cain sorry

Was on the Apostles and those who believed.

So by faith Abel obeyed God. And by faith Noah obeyed God. By faith Abraham obeyed God and was ready to sacrifice his promised son. All throughout Hebrews 11 we see people obeying God by faith.

Shadrach, Meshach. and Abendego all obeyed God's commandments by faith and so did Daniel, Faith cannot be separated from obedience.

The Stone with Seven Eyes represents a Nitrogen Base...

Zechariah 3:9
"For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day."

One day a new Genome (engraving) will be written on said Nucleobase and sin will be removed. The verse is literally describing Genetic Engineering.

Come on folks. Wake up already. Do you need graphics to help?

Faith is one thing but you missed something important;

Faith Without Works Is Dead​

14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does itprofit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works, and I will show you my faith by [b]my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

 

[ralliann]

So by faith Abel obeyed God. And by faith Noah obeyed God. By faith Abraham obeyed God and was ready to sacrifice his promised son. All throughout Hebrews 11 we see people obeying God by faith.

Yep..

Shadrach, Meshach. and Abendego all obeyed God's commandments by faith and so did Daniel, Faith cannot be separated from obedience.

YEP, but so did Those obey God that were much more than 430 years before Moses law. They obeyed and did as God told them to do.
