The 'reunion' occurs through the removal of the law that caused the barrier in the first place.You know, when a barrier is broken down, when the dividing wall comes down, it is like east meeting west. There is a joyful reunion of the two. You are to see both now.

Which law? The sane, rational and perfect "law" )Torah/teaching) of God or the law and traditions of men?
Doveaman, the NT says nothing about me being allowed to marry my sister. Can I? Is that wise? If not, where would I learn about such a thing?
...as recorded in Torah.The mitsvah.
And He in turn condemned it.The "law" is what "condemned" Him.
Correct, but without the letter of ten commandments.Not without the Holy Spirit.
Neither.Which law? The sane, rational and perfect "law" (Torah/teaching) of God or the law and traditions of men?
From the law of the Spirit, not of the letter.Doveaman, the NT says nothing about me being allowed to marry my sister. Can I? Is that wise? If not, where would I learn about such a thing?
the barrier was the that which separated the jew from the gentile.. not the law itself.The 'reunion' occurs through the removal of the law that caused the barrier in the first place.

And here I am thinking that it was sin that seperated us from God.
It was indeed the law itself.the barrier was the that which separated the jew from the gentile.. not the law itself.

He (Peter) said to them: "You are well aware that it is against our law for a Jew to associate with a Gentile or visit him...Acts 10:28.
It is not just God being spoken of in context.And here I am thinking that it was sin that seperated us from God.

You sound like Nicodemus. Are you two related?Oh, stop Stryder! Haven't you heard? We're not under the law, we're under grace!? As long as we claim Jesus died on the cross we are free to do whatever we want just so long as we "think" we are being led by the "spirit."
Jim Jones? Led by the spirit. David Koresh? Led by the spirit. We should never ask which "spirit" unless we have a can opener.
So, if one is compelled by the "spirit" to say marry their sister then the sense of the law be damned.....
Ah, but apparently "society" sees the usefulness of such a law. Or, maybe not. I mean if "society" judges that men should marry men what "Bible" truths do the "Bible thumpers" choose to stand on? OT or New?
New? Then I can marry my sister or a dog, but not a man. Consistency is not an option.
It's not and argument. It's a fact.The simple fact is that if the Ten Commandments were really the "word of God" they should transcend time and space. I mean how could anyone argue that the word of an omniscient God is somehow irrelevent or that it does not apply to our time?
If ones understanding of basic truth is flawed then knowing the title of many books isnt going to clear up that misunderstanding.Talmud, not Torah.
