Jesus Is Real said:'So how's your faith, Wooba?
If any are keeping the letter of the law, are they happy?
Are they being freed from anger.
,....from lust?
,.....from selfishness?
,.....from greed?
,.....from their own hurts by others?
In other words, "How is the Law working for you?"
Then why did Christ come, if you can keep them????
One can't be sanctified from breaking the law, until they actually turn to Christ for HELP and remain in HIM - not to then turn back to the Law as Gal. did. Which Paul called the works of the flesh!!!!
This is the Whole Point - we needed Christ.
The humble will cry out but the proud won't, because the proud is too busy building monuments to their hurts by men. Christ can't get through this - and He won't, until we all start trusting Him to be Lord over all who we are - even over our wounds. Which we all have, Wooba.
If they are keeping the letter of the Law, are they less of this world: anger, pride, rage, impatience etc? They don't whole heartedly forgive! So with that they lord things over others. So did my group when I was a Calvinist! I can admit it! Can anyone else?
Are they keeping the Sabbath Holy on these days when they hurt so bad? Nope. Because only Christ heals, Wooba. Not because a man/woman is saying this to you but because it's the truth.
I'm out of here, only because what ever I testify to you your not willing to hear.
I am not a fool, so I'm out.

The true test of a follower of Jesus is not what they say, but if they obey what Jesus said. So, if you make an eloquent profession of loving Jesus, and yet, you do not do what He said, namely, "If you love me, keep my commandments", including His holy Sabbath day, then your walk is in vain.
