What are you 12? That is just a shallow attack and post that does not even address the factual points given in the post you responded to.
I don't know what is worse. Your non Christian responses or the fact that three or so people who profess Christ patted you on the back for it.
The fact that your so called friends here who are suppose to be Christians continue to see your non Christian responses and do not recognize it and rebuke you for it, but pat you on the back is quite telling of their spiritual depravity also.
Address the points of the post or move on please.
I showed what your intent is. Wishful thinking, twisting scripture, circular reasoning to resume working at the law.
Then I showed why your incorrect version of the scriptures lead you to continue in your circular reasoning.
Sabbath MEANS rest. There is a Rest left to the people of God.
For he who has entered into Rest has also ceased from his works as God did from HIS.
Is this Rest then to look back at the law and continue to work at your understanding of it? NO.
Otherwise Rest is not Rest. It is work.
Rest is to come to Christ and receive Blessing for what HE has done (FULFILLED THE LAW) and cease from your work at the law as God has ceased from His Work.
Galatians 3:24-25
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 But
after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
How are we no longer under the law? Because we received REST from Christ.
Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for
ye are not under the law, but under grace.
How are we no longer under the law but under Grace? Because we received REST from our work at the law from Christ.
Rest is NOT looking back to the law to follow it in your own understanding and in your own strength. Rest is CEASING from your work at the law. Rest is CEASING from looking back to the law to work at it in your own understanding and strength.
I know none of the legalists or Judaizers states it that way. But that is EXACTLY what they do. They look back to the law (10 commandments) and then JUSTIFY their work at it. And then attempt to belittle people who DON'T work at what they work at. And then wrestle and twist scripture to make it appear as if working at the law is REST and the Gospel of Christ.
Its a mockery and a farce. Of course you don't want a Christian to call it what it is. It might get other Christians to actually understand what is going on here if we use simple terms that everyone can understand.
Legalist - someone that looks back to the 10 commandments to work at them in their understanding and in their power and strength.
What would be your definition of legalist or Judaizer? A judaizer pretty much does the same thing. But a Judaizer adds other jewish things to it as well like clean and unclean foods and perhaps some more festivals and other such jewish traditions.
