When Jesus was on the cross, He was speaking the ancient Hebrew language that the recent Israelites has forgotten. That's why their names were Greek/Latin/ Aramaic names. Like Jesus is a Latin name from the Aramaic name Joshua/ Yahshua but in Hebrew Yehoshua
But that's why the people who surround Jesus while on the cross couldn't understand who He was calling out to because some of them knew little bit of Hebrew, that they thought He was calling out to Elijah that sounded like Eli Lama Sabachthani which means in Hebrew, My God, why you have forsaken me. And that's hy they were shocked when Jesus the son of an uneducated carpenter was able to read the ancient Hebrew scrolls. Only the scribes who were the teachers and the readers of the scrolls were the only ones who knew Hebrew. But Yahweh isn't the Hebrew name for God, but a word that was used by Mesopotamian/Sumerians which Abraham was from Mesopotamian. But Jesus was speaking Hebrew when He was referring to God as being His father, and the word He used for father was the Hebrew word Abba, like in Abraham a Hebrew name which Moses knew Egyptian and little bit of the Hebrew languages.

Ieovah (Jehovah) is the Latin word they used for God. But today, the Jews call God Allah because they were raised around Arabic speaking people that they have gotten used to this name. Just like we call Him God which it's an English word.

God had designed for us to seek Him. That it shows that we really care about Him.

((speaking of the entirety of the book of the Law, which was to be inscribed in stone per Deuteronomy 27))

Deuteronomy 29:9​
Therefore keep the words of this covenant, and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.
but of course, you want to delete every jot and tittle except for ten words.

cconsider James:

James 2:9-10
but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors. For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.
thou shalt not be impartial is not part of the ten words. but it is part of the Law, the covenant.

don't like James? Consider Jesus -

Matthew 22:37-40​
'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'
This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it:
'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'
On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.

neither of these are in the ten words, but they are the basis of the entire Law. yes these are the basis of the whole Torah, not the decalogue - - so says the scripture, but you have had a different teacher, who has misinstructed you??

theae are jots and tittles you say are deleted - - but the gospel says, not one iota needs to be erased for a dead man to be free from the entire Law - - by this we are saved. without this, we are under the curse.

You are mixing things that God Himself did not mix, and that is why you are confused. Jews and Gentiles are not the same, and the Law given to Israel at the time of the exodus had different parts with different purposes. The Ten Commandments were never the problem. God Himself calls them the covenant, written in stone by His own finger. And Revelation shows the Ark of the Covenant in the future, and what is inside it? The Ten Commandments. That alone proves their lasting place and importance.

The rest of the Law of Moses was given to Israel for a time, for sacrifices, priests, land rules, and nation life. Many of those laws cannot even be kept today. Those are the laws that passed with their purpose, not the commandments that define sin and obedience. To pretend everything is the same is careless reading of Scripture.

James does not cancel obedience. He shows that breaking God’s law is sin. Jesus does not delete the law either. He summed it up. Love God and love your neighbour is not the removal of commandments, it is their heart. Love does not steal, does not murder, does not lie, does not worship idols. Jesus never erased God’s commands, He explained them.

You say jots and tittles are deleted, but Jesus said the opposite. Not one will pass until all is fulfilled. And being “free” does not mean lawless. It means free from condemnation while walking in obedience. Those who do God’s will are blessed. Those who refuse His commands place themselves under judgment. That is what Scripture actually says.

First the Devil deceives them and writes his name on them(they believe it's Gods, Revelation 13) and afterwards the name of God is revealed and written on us. New.novel it's hidden no one knows it yet. https://biblehub.com/interlinear/revelation/3-12.htm

it is a great honor for an SDA legalist heretic to dislike one's posts...
SDA's play the same game in salvation as every other false movement of Christendom. They profess to teach that salvation is by grace through faith, not works, then redefine this in a way that is contrary to the gospel. Though SDA's often try to deny it, they teach that salvation is by "grace plus law, faith plus works" -- saved by faith + keeping the 10 commandments. Their plan of salvation is a subtle mixture of law and grace that is a perversion of the gospel. (Galatians 1:6-9) :cautious:

Here is a statement below in blue from a former member of Christian Chat who is an SDA which proves my point.

"There is another Gospel out there. What is the other Gospel? It is a Gospel that tries to separate God's Law (10 commandments) from the Cross. The counterfeit Gospel is out there. It is a Gospel that tries to separate God's 10 commandments from the plan of salvation. God’s Law has always been part of the true Gospel of Christ. The counterfeit Gospel does not have it. God's forever Law (the 10 commandments) is the foundation of both the Old and the New Covenant and the very foundation and basis of the true Gospel of Christ."

It first sprang up in Acts 15 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts 15&version=KJV John spoke of it when speaking of those who went out from them to show they were not of them. It evolved over time but is the same as the Ebionite beliefs but with changes over time on divinity,Grace,virgin birth ect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebionites
 
@memberofthebride

the word that is translated in Numbers 15:38 as "blue" is very specific, much like "crimson" in Psalm 22:6 - - but while it is still known from what the correct crimson dye is made ((a specific worm; super interesting portrait of Christ, look it up!)) - the source and therefore the particular blue God instructed you, who have put yourself under the law to, to dye the tassels that you must always wear on the four corners of your garment, has been lost to history well before God appeared in the flesh.

A quite amazing fact - when He came, on a very technical, deep point, no one on earth could possibly be keeping the Law, because they had lost the color blue. the great scholars like Nichodemus for example, the greatest rabbi in all Israel, knew this of course -

but @4urenlightment you'll like this, do you imagine they made that loss of knowledge public? Did they admit they had forgotten how to pronounce the name of God, either, through their weird devotion of avoiding to say or write it? BTW, when Jesus quoted OT saying YHWH - - do you think He omitted vowels or spoke the ineffable name ((His own name)) boldly? Did anyone recognize this? who? Zaccheus? Joseph of Arimathea?

all that aside - - you, who boast that you keep the law, @memberofthebride -- no one possibly for 2500 years had kept the law except for JESUS OF NAZARETH and one very tiny reason why, is that no one earth except JESUS OF NAZARETH has known the correct interpretation of "blue" in Numbers 15:38.

do you understand this or do you have no real, actual respect for the Law? your reply will reveal your heart.

you don't keep it. you boast of keeping it, but such boasting is clearly nothing but stinky, vacuous wind.

no one who understands the Law says they keep it.

It would take a book to correct your many many mistakes and even if some one were to do so, it would make no difference to you -- your mind is locked shut.

When you come back to life in the 2nd resurrection you will learn God's Way. there is a First to life, a second to judgement and the third to condemnation i.e. the Lake of Fire.
 
God in Son still died once for us all Hebrews 10, especially verse 10. I watch for me insistantly, to see to not strain out gnats and swallow a camel or many camels. God Father knows best as man misinterprets many scriptures written. If had known what Jesus' willing death would bring to all people to choose to repent to God personally and be saved by God in the risen Son.
The crucifixion would not have ever taken place. Yet it did, and Father God of in risen Son for us all, saves us, anyone that turns to Father. Father will save them too. Dad is fair, 100% Fair to all, to get given the chance to turn to him in beleif through Son for them as risen where new life is a gift to them, and one loves all as Son did and does, who went to that cross for us all. That was not for self, he is perfect and makes us that as well Thank you Father
Col 1:21-22 Wow! Isaiah 6:1-7
The "all" in Heb 10:10 is all of those that God gave to his Son to die as a sacrifice to God, for God's acceptance and not to mankind, for mankind's acceptance. John 17:1-2 - These words spake Jesus and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father the hour is come, glorify thy Son, that thy Son may also glorify thee. Thou has given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou has given him. John 10:26-29 - But ye believeth not, because ye are not of my sheep. , as I said unto you, my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, and I give unto them eternal life , and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father which gave them me, is greater than all, and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
 
If grace means you do not need to keep the Commandments that is exactly what it means,
"" you just need to say "I believe" and you are go to go"???
This is also a charicature of salvation by grace trough faith. When you see phrases like "not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us" (Tt 3:5), do you turn away from His mercy and pursue works of righteousness for your salvation?
 
Ieovah (Jehovah) is the Latin word they used for God.

Jehovah is from early German Bibles - - the 'J' is pronounced as a 'Y'

i really jet a laugh at how JW's can't even pronounce their own cult name correctly

in Latin, it's Iehovah ((similarly, Iesus)) - - with the Ie pronounced like eeYay or, with the ee sound shortened, much like a modern English Y sound.

both of these are from the Hebrew YHWH/YHVH - - which is a name, not a word meaning 'god'
El or Elohim is a more proper Hebrew way to say 'God'
 
how would we know sin without knowing God's commandments?

LOL! Right. We'll just forget about the flood then. Was pretty messy anyway. :giggle:

You can't make this nonsense up. The entire world was under 'flood watch' because God had enough of the gross carrying's on, not to mention other worldly creatures encouraging it all.

BUT vassal here needed the commandments to know when he was sinning. I guess some people are that way. :unsure:

You do know that God sent Jesus because of His love for us, right? You do know that God takes no pleasure in the death of the guilty, right?

You do not speak for God and you are certainly not very Bible savy. There will be a judgement, but God won't be laughing and He will not be hiring out for people who enjoy judgement to help Him.

Yes I know for certain the Father agapao me as does Jesus Christ, and I know I am being judged now. the world is not being judged now, that will come later.

I also know that Christ came to confirm the marriage contract with His Bride, the Bride the Father chooses for Him.
I know the New Covenant is a marriage contract between Christ and the Church, His bride.
I know the marriage contract has been accepted by the Bride and the Groom.
I also know half the Church will fall away before the Tribulation begins
I know at Christ return there will be a wedding and a wedding supper.
and the wife will always be at the side of Christ, sitting next to Him on His Throne
all of this is in the pages of the WORD of God

I didn't ask you what you know. I commented on the fact your post was full of fallacies that others are supposed to believe.

And also the fact you seem to be eager to see people be judged and thrown into hell. Provide scripture that shows you are currently under judgement. I won't hold my breath, but I fully expect a mashup of verses having nothing to do with your belief. (should you bother to respond of course and not just make up a bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with what I asked)
 
in order to control that bondage, subjugating others to it falsely, lordeing it over then.

IOW - - because vanity empty, empty, damnable vanity

Like a...!

By the way I do not believe my Father nor Jesus Christ will ever throw a single person in to this "HELL" devised by Rome there is no hell in which nonbelievers are cast, that is a lie of Satan. there is a Lake of Fire for those that refuse to obey, and that is a merciful death, instant.

How can you say God is merciful, but will torment a person for eternity? I would never follow that god.
and there is a problem with this Hell, we are flesh and blood not immortal, went we die we are dead, again its Rome that teaches we have an immortal soul, another lie

1 Corinth 11
31For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 32But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

GWT 31If we were judging ourselves correctly, we would not be judged.

32But when the Lord judges us, he disciplines us so that we won't be condemned along with the rest of the wo
rld.

Those the Father calls to Christ are being judged, actually corrected, until their end, death or the resurrection.
it is our Father correcting His children so when they are grown they will walk in His path.
