YES or NO: Do The 10 Commandments Still Apply To Us Today? (2)

[SummaScriptura]

Well, ...yes and no.

 

[LittleLambofJesus]

Does this mean He took 6000 years to create the earth, and rested for 1000 years?

Well, ...yes and no.

Good answer

You're still not seeing it. We don't need to avoid the law. If the law is abscent then there is no sin. The law is not meant to make anything perfect but rather to reveal sin. Even with the new covenant given to us by Jesus, we still have the law.

Sin is not the transgression of "the law". Sin is the transgression of the 'LAW MAKER'.

New Covnenat: Jeremiah 31
31Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32Not 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:
33But 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. 34And 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.

“Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with glory…fading though it was, will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious?” (2 Cor 3:7-8).

The law is not "LETTERS" written on our hearts. The law is a 'PERSON' of "SPIRIT" living in our hearts. And it is that PERSON we are to OBEY. Not obsolete "LETTERS" borrowed off ancient STONES.

Show me where the earth is billions of years old. For one of Gods days is as 1000 years to us..

Does this mean He took 6000 years to create the earth, and rested for 1000 years?

Man, I love sarcasm.

 

[LittleLambofJesus]

I never said not to take it seriously. I said not to take it "literally", unless you think some multi-headed dragon is gonna pop up out of the water..

Reve 12:3 and was viewed another Sign in the heaven and behold! a dragon great fiery having heads seven and horns ten and upon the heads of him seven diadems
4 and the tail of him dragging the third of the stars of the heaven and casts them into the land. And the Dragon has stood in view of the woman, of the onebeing about to be bringing forth, that whenever she may be bringing forth the offspring of her he may be devouring.

Inspiriation does not work like that. Its not like Moses was a secretary taking dictation.
And if you think it is proper to read a 3000 year old document using a 21st century understanding of how history is written, then its no wonder that you totally misunderstand what the Bible is saying.

Than how exactly does inspiration work? We are no longer to depend on someone else to instruct us in the ways of the Lord. We can learn of Him ourselves. You place too much trust in man and not enough in the word of God. He will bring the wisdom of man to nothing.

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.

Actually, I'd say that YOU place too much trust in man: YOURSELF.
Unless you think you are God's oracle.

How would you like it if I said he was as good a bishop as one of your EO bishops?

Or perhaps intead we should just leave the insults out of this. Deal?

Why would that bother me? People are entitled to their opinion here and I am also entitled to disagree.....
