Hello Jackson,

In the Old testament the laws of Moses also included civil laws and it someone was found openly sinning against God they were put to death as the scripture you quoted above. Israel stopped practicing these civil laws once they were conquered by the Roman empire as they were then under Roman civil laws.

What you and your friends are missing is that you still do not KNOW God's Word. IN the OLD Testament under the civil laws of Moses if anyone was openly breaking most of the 10 commandments they were openly put to death. This is to teach all that the wages of SIN is death. This is still the penalty for those who continue to practice SIN in the NEW Covenant (Romans 6:23)

Now let's have a look at the scriptures you left out of your post above in relation to many of the other commandments being broken in the civil laws of Moses..................

What you did not mention however was that there was similar punishments given to those that openly broke God’s Law.

For example the death penalty was also used for openly breaking most of the 10 commandments under the civil laws of Israel................

Not honoring your mother and farther (Lev 20:9),

Blaspheming or using God’s name in vain (Lev 24:10-17),

Idolatry (Deut 27:15; Deut 7:25-26),

Serving other God (Deut 13:6-18; 1Sam 26:19),

Coveting and Adultery (2Pet 2:14; John 8:5), evil towards your neighbour (Deut 27:15-26) and yes as the 7th Day Sabbath is one of God’s 10 commandments it was also included and if it was openly broken just like adultery (John 8:5) people were put to death.

Breaking God’s Law (10 commandments) is SIN (1John 3:4) and the wages of sin is death (Rom 6:23). Nothing has changed and this is also recorded in the New Testament scriptures as well, although we are no longer under the civil, ceremonial, ecclesiastical, Levitical, Sanctuary laws of Moses.

Hope this helps you.....

ahh, I see. you are tying Christ to the Mosaic Covenant. well, actually, that was between God and Israel only. Christ was the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham. ( through you all the tribes of the EARTH will be blessed.) all the O.T. covenants were fulfilled in Christ. Christ is the center of God's word to man. Sinai was the center of God's covenant to Israel . there is a difference.

Walk trough the valley
Galatians chapter 1

6
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—7 which is really no gospel at all.
If the "different gospel" was not grace + the law of Moses, what was it then?

You already have the answer: it was grace + the Law of Moses. God's influence makes us alive to obey from the heart, by the Holy Spirit, having written the New Commandment of the Love of God in our heart; but the Law of Moses kills us. A new commandment I give to you, that you Love one another as I love you, that you also Love one another. This new commandment fulfills the 2 commandments that the Law of Moses and the prophets hang on: on the tree with Christ: In His death and Resurrection: Sin shall not have dominion for you are not under the Law but under grace. The Law of sin and death is abolished, nailed on the tree with Christ. For further understanding if your interested heck on my page other post i have replied to concerning the Law, convinced that we are free from the Law of Moses and free from the dictates of the beast that thinks to change times and laws to bring us back in bondage. At the same time its not about trying to help GOD with others who preach the Law as this preaching helps us further the freedom we have in Christ, in a round about way: if the command of the Sabbath rest is nullified as an obligation then the whole law has to be nullified as an obligation to free us to do from a willing hearth the will of God left as an inheritance, about entering permanent rest in the death and exchange of our will with Christ who carries us into His death to all that is not of God. Fascinating how those preaching the Law bring us into more freedom from the Law. "some preach Christ out of strife and contention, supposing to ad affliction to my slavery to Christ, and some out of Love and well doing."
I'm camping on Bowen Island celebrating the feast of Tabernacle, beginning at sundown today. As Jesus mentioned to His brethren, "Your time is always ready." I write this down not to forget as I came into the village to have breakfast and this should not be permitted during the feast of boots, Living on the housetop (in constant communion with God) as a reminder of living in the wilderness: will be living of what i catch fishing. "Great deliverance gives HE to His Saints." Those who have the hOLY sPIRIT praying for the Anointing to have power to be His witnesses against all oppositions. The law will not make you holy, it may make you righteous, if your not imposing yourself on others, walking in the Light you have while not willing to sell out everything including the law to Follow Christ.

so SDA not kill his member that violate sabbath law. Old covenant is a package 10 commandment and It aplication or interpretation.

For Example 4th commandment not say what punishment for violator, than a law say It is death penalty.

So the covenant in sabbath is If you not honor sabbath your penalty is death.

so If you only do honor sabbath and not kill your member that violate sabbath you violate the covenant.

Hi gb9,

If you are not apart of God's Israel then you are not a part of the NEW Covenant..............

Hebrews 8
10,
for this is the COVENANT that I will make with the HOUSE OF ISRAEL after those days says the Lord; I will PUT MY LAWS INTO THEIR MINDS AND WRITE THEM IN THEIR HEARTS and I will be unto them a God and they shall be my people.

Please my friend enough of this saying "it is only for Israel therefore not for me" if you are not a part of God's Israel then you are NOT a part of the NEW Covenant.

If you are NOT a part of the NEW Covenant then you are still in your SINS.

Those who practice SIN have NO part in the Kingdom of heaven.

May God bless you as you seek him through His Word.

one more time, you ain't my friend. I understand what Paul said about being grafted into Israel. but, belief in the Lord Jesus Christ is what saves, not keeping the Sabbath. and, I will not deny historical facts- gentiles were never under the Law of Moses. that is not my opinion, that is facts. I am not in a cult, I do not have to say or not say anything.

Matthew 5:17-18
[FONT=&quot]17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Can someone show in scripture that this does NOT APPLY to "civil, ceremonial, ecclesiastical, Levitical" law???

Can someone show, from scripture, how the law is SUPPOSED to be cut into categories and some of it done away while some of it still stands?

I don't think it can be done without some serious twisting of scripture. Because Paul explains in his epistles how EACH "category" of law is fulfilled in Christ. INCLUDING the 10 commandments.

I think everyone knows it. I think there are just a few who try to twist scripture, having the blindfold on and ear plugs in, so they can continue with their "work" at the 10 commandments.[/FONT]

So then you are still under the "civil, ceremonial, ecclesiastical, Levitical" and all the law and are in unbelief. You don't believe that the Lord Jesus Christ came to do what He said He would do.

The Lord said none of it would pass until ALL OF IT was fulfilled. So you are either under all of it, or you are under Grace and under none of it.

Absolutely not!

The commandments are a portion of Exodus 20.

God is not committing Himself to any course of action either conditionally or unconditionally.

The only part of the 10 commandments that comes close to being a covenant is the 5th commandment:

Ex 20:12
12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
KJV

but even that is a stretch.

Exodus 34
28 Moses was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights without eating bread or drinking water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant—the Ten Commandments.

to me the word of the covenant - the ten commandments, mean ten commandment is covenant

Hi Brother Jackson, that is a strange thing to say.

Did you read the post you quoted from?

If you did what do you think that post means?

Thanks for your thoughts. Maybe you read it but did not understand it.

Try reading it again and praying about it.
after I watch youtube, I learn that the ten commandment is like constitution or foundation of the law, but to implement need interpretation or aplication

for Example do not steal is in the ten commandment but TC not say what is the punishment. The law explain the punishment

so It must be the law to make TC in effect.

on the sabbath, the punishment is death

If member of Israel tribe not doing sabbath, It Will be kill.

and It is not in SDA. They not kill a member that not parsitipate in sabbath, so basically SDA is not doing sabbath AS in the OT, or violate Sabbath law anyway.

You are correct Jackson, the ones who wish to pass judgement are themselves not following the Law, and the Law is a Covenant Law, it is not separated into bits of parts a person accepts and bits a person denies.

They were neither baptized into Moses nor were we. But the tradition of mankind is to think himself approved before God by works, to boast in works, and to judge his neighbour by works. The purpose of the Sabbaths of the covenant was explicitly stated by God however: that Israel should know that it is God who sanctifies, not themselves.

They travel on sabbath. They kindle fire on sabbath. They handle money on sabbath. They do not offer the sacrifices the Law of the Covenant requires for sabbaths. But they say they keep sabbath??

Marc, the entire Law is a Covenant, not individual micro-covenants. What else does this scripture mean?

Exodus 24:3-8

And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we do. And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel. And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD. And Moses took half of the blood, and put [it] in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar. And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient. And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled [it] on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words.

It is called the book of the covenant, and the blood of the covenant, and it is the people agreeing to it, both the blessing for abiding by it and the curse for breaking it.

How is that possibly not a covenant??
