I do not agree with one word you wrote, actually I do not under stand it?
How have I been disqualified?
How have I rejected 99.9 of the law?
How am I not following the path Jesus taught?



I do not agree -- prove your allegations

The Gentiles were given four rules to follow.

Acts 15:28-29
For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these essentials:
that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols and from blood and from things strangled and from
fornication; if you keep yourselves free from such things, you will do well. Farewell.

Are you overriding the instruction of the Holy Spirit to the Gentiles?

And by what authority do you make the claim that Gentiles must obey the law?

Your not following the path that Jesus walked because Jesus was under the entire law.
 
Moves where? By the way, there should be day of rest. People need a break from work. However, that day is not important. Just after I was saved, I worked 16 hours a day, 3 weeks straight. I was totally exhausted at the end. The military does not observe the sabbath on any day.
There are heaps of people in political places especially in America promoting a uniform day of rest, heaps of organization wanting it for many reasons. i don't have a list on hand but watch and you will notice this happening.

One of heaps out there is "The Heritage Foundation", Saving America by Saving the Family: A Foundation for the Next 250 Years. On page 38 "Support for a Uniform Day of Rest".

Recently the European Sunday Alliance again brought up the idea that there should be a legislated day of rest across the European Union (EU).
The European Sunday Alliance is a network of national Sunday Alliances, trade unions, civil society organizations and religious communities committed to raising awareness of the unique value of synchronised free time for the European societies.

It was the Catholic Church which, by the authority of Jesus Christ has transferred this rest to the Sunday in remembrance of the resurrection of our Lord. Thus the observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the [Catholic] church. --Monsignor Segur, Plain Talk About the Protestantism of Today, page 213.

Sunday is a Catholic institution, and its claim to observance can be defended only on Catholic principles. . . . From beginning to end of scripture there is not a single passage that warrants the transfer of weekly public worship from the last day of the week to the first. Catholic Press, Sydney, Australia August, 1900.

Sunday is our mark of authority. The church is above the Bible, and this transference of sabbath observance is proof of that fact. The Catholic Record, London, Ontario, September 1, 1923.
 
Perhaps you could let us know when you perfectly obey what Paul termed the letter that kills, the ministry of death and condemnation
"the letter that kills, the ministry of death and condemnation" have been explained in great detail and i don't think you paid any attention to the detail. you are convinced in your own mind.

Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Rom 7:13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.

Paul clearly states ... was the law made death unto me... God forbid. BUT SIN ....

It is sin that kills not the law which is GOOD.

Rom 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law:

You can not say that there is no sin in the world today. If the law is dead we would have no sin..

Here is a breakdown of how services work in the Catholic Church:
  • Daily Mass: Most parishes offer Mass on weekdays (Monday through Friday) and Saturdays. These are generally shorter than Sunday Mass and often held in the morning.
  • Saturday Vigil Mass: A Mass celebrated on Saturday evening (usually 4:00 PM or later) counts as a Sunday Mass, fulfilling the "Sunday obligation".
So to say that Sunday is the day is not accurate you can go to mass on Saturday afternoon.

Why do you use the term UNDER it should be 'subject' to the Law? "under" means under condemnation of the law, under the penalty of death.

I follow the Torah, the Sabbath, the 7 Holy Feasts of God, clean and unclean meats. I have not eaten pig in almost 60 years.

are you aware there are bible scholars, from what I call the 40,000 flavors, now proving Paul has been very misunderstood, that He taught ALL - both Jew and gentile should obey Torah, including the Sabbath?

I can post a couple of the men if you want to understand the Truth.

Are you saying that you reject the decision of the Jerusalem council?

Acts 15:28-29

that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols and from blood and from things strangled and from

no greater burden than these essentials

Your saying that Gentiles are no longer under those four essentials?

That the four essentials have been replaced by the Torah?

I need to know by what authority are you speaking.

I asked AI to clear up the deep misunderstanding embedded in your replies.

Scripture only


1. Meaning of “under the law”

The phrase “under the law” (ὑπὸ νόμον) in the New Testament consistently describes a juridical state: being subject to the Mosaic Law as a covenant, with its authority to command, judge, condemn, and curse.


Key texts define it:


Romans 3:19
“Now we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God.”​

Here, “under the law” = those to whom the Law speaks covenantally. This is Israel.


Galatians 3:23
“Before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed.”​

Galatians 4:4–5
“God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, so that He might redeem those who were under the law.”​

Christ was born under it in order to redeem those who were under it. This category is clearly Jewish, not Gentile.


Paul defines the consequences of being under the law:


Galatians 3:10
“For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse.”​

Romans 6:14
“For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace.”​

Thus, “under the law” means:


  • under its jurisdiction
  • under its condemnation
  • under its curse
  • under its authority as covenant

2. Gentiles were never “under the law”

Scripture is explicit:


Romans 2:14
“For when Gentiles who do not have the law do instinctively the things of the law…”​

Ephesians 2:12
“Remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise.”​

Gentiles:


  • did not possess the law
  • were outside the covenants
  • therefore could not be under the law

Paul reinforces this distinction:


Romans 9:4
“To whom belongs the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law…”​

The Law—including the ten words—was covenantally given to Israel alone.


3. The Jerusalem Council (Acts 15)

The precise question addressed:


Acts 15:1
“Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.”​

The apostles’ conclusion:


Acts 15:10
“Why do you put God to the test by placing upon the neck of the disciples a yoke which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?”​

Acts 15:19
“It is my judgment that we do not trouble those who are turning to God from among the Gentiles.”​

Acts 15:28
“It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these essentials.”​

The council explicitly refused to place Gentiles under:


  • circumcision
  • the Mosaic Law
  • its covenantal obligations

This necessarily includes the ten words, which are inseparable from the Sinai covenant:


Exodus 34:28
“He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten words.”​

4. Paul after the council

Paul teaches the same distinction everywhere:


1 Corinthians 9:20–21
“To those under the law, as under the law…
to those without law, as without law…
though not being without the law of God, but under the law of Christ.”​

Two categories:


  • under the law → Jews
  • without law → Gentiles

Gentiles are never described as being under the Mosaic Law.


Galatians 5:18
“But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.”​

5. Summary (Scripture-defined)

  • “Under the law” = under the Mosaic covenant’s authority and condemnation
  • This status applied only to Israel
  • Gentiles were never under the law
  • The Jerusalem Council formally rejected placing Gentiles under it
  • This rejection necessarily includes the ten words, which belong to the Sinai covenant
  • Believers—Jew or Gentile—are now under:
    Galatians 6:2
    “the law of Christ”​

And its fulfillment is defined as love:


Romans 13:10
“Love is the fulfillment of the law.”​

The European Sunday Alliance is a network of national Sunday Alliances, trade unions, civil society organizations and religious communities committed to raising awareness of the unique value of synchronised free time for the European societies.
There is a world of difference between a day of rest and the Sabbath. Until relatively recently, Sunday was the day of rest for most workers anyway. Where I live, full Sunday trading was implemented in 1996. So since the founding of the state in 1901, Sunday was indeed the day of rest.

All that the Sunday alliance is trying to achieve is a return to the former days, not some terribly draconian new world order. So no, it won't be a Sunday sabbath. The Sabbath is between man and God, not man and the world. Now if those organisations were trying to impose compulsory church attendance on Sunday, I would agree that you have a point.

Personally, I'd be OK if most businesses were closed on Sunday. But for people who are increasing required to work long hours and with long commutes, Sunday shopping is helpful. Our local supermarket is at its busiest on Sunday afternoons. People will adapt, but I'd hate to be the government that tried to put that bit of toothpaste back in the tube.
 
Just be aware that Sunday is the day that the catholic church made holy by their own Authority and Saturday is the day God made holy.

Sunday is our mark of authority. The church is above the Bible, and this transference of sabbath observance is proof of that fact. The Catholic Record, London, Ontario, September 1, 1923.
Justin Martyr, about AD 150, confirmed that Sunday was the meeting day for believers. The change was at least in some way due to the fact that Jesus rose from the dead on Sunday. Constantine legalised the day when he made Christianity the state religion.

Acts 20:7 says that they met on the first day of the week
Acts 16:12 says that the church was to take up the promised offering on the first day of the week.

Jesus made Sunday Holy by choosing to rise from the dead on that day. You know, New Covenant of grace superseding the Old Covenant of law. Ascribing Sunday worship to Catholicism is specious. Catholicism hijacked a lot of Christian doctrine, intermixed a whole lot of paganism and called it Christian.
 
"the letter that kills, the ministry of death and condemnation" have been explained in great detail and i don't think you paid any attention to the detail. you are convinced in your own mind.

Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Rom 7:13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.

Paul clearly states ... was the law made death unto me... God forbid. BUT SIN ....

It is sin that kills not the law which is GOOD.

Rom 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law:

You can not say that there is no sin in the world today. If the law is dead we would have no sin..
I have already told you what is written in applicable law is now in the hearts and minds of believers, only the penalty for transgression got removed. The commandment is indeed Holy, just and good as has also been explained to you.
You were also shown what Paul stated alongside this
Sinfull passions are aroused in us by the law Rom7:12
Sin took occasion of one of the TC to arouse all manner of concupiscence in Sau verse8
So why does the letter kill, why is it the ministration of death and condemnation, the letter of thou shalt NOT, no wiggle room for error, perfectly obey it or stand guilty before it:
Thou shalt NOT dwell on any impure thought
Thou shat NOT desire ANYTHING of your neighbours, whether material goods or a member of their household
Thou shalt NOT tell any even little fib about another
Thou shalt NOT/never put anything before God in your life
Thou shalt NOT erect any graven image in your mind
Thou shalt NOT have sexual desire lust for anyone apart from your spouse
Thou shalt NOT transgress the law relating to the inner man, the law no one but you and God need know you break
Does that letter kill you, or do you perfectly obey it without one slip?
Let's add the second greatest commandment to a list of thou shalt NOT
Thou shalt NOT fail to perfectly love all those you come into contact with in thought, word or deed, even those who harass, persecute or malign you
Now to be justified before God by obeying the law requires perfect obedience of it(Gal3:10&11) Thou shalt NOT
Now you say, and those like you say, you are not justified by obeying the TC, but you can only be in a justified state if you do obey them. Well my friend, in the real world, that places anyone under righteousness of obeying the law
So, because the TC are the letter that kills, the ministry of death and condemnation, as you have been shown, means you must preach a message you cannot practice in your own life
 
"the letter that kills, the ministry of death and condemnation" have been explained in great detail and i don't think you paid any attention to the detail. you are convinced in your own mind.

Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

Rom 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law:

You can not say that there is no sin in the world today. If the law is dead we would have no sin..
BTW
I hold the TC in the utmost respect, I do not seek to water them down, it would be abhorrent to me to do so. I know they do not only relate to outward actions, I have always known, sin is sin whether it is committed outwardly or inwardly, and the TC covers that, which is why Paul gave that reason as to why he had to die to the law/righteousness of obeying it.
I have been discussing this with a couple of people on another website who insist the justified obey the law/TC. When I explain the tenth one to them, they go silent. And if people were honest(as christians should be) I imagine very few indeed relate the Ten Commandment to what goes on, on the inside of man, they are focusing on outward actions, because I could never do that, as a young teenager I got crushed badly, and ended up in a truly horrific place because of it.
Please rememeber, it was the pharisees who only sought to clean the outside of the cup, you will never clean the inside according to thou shalt NOT, discernment should show you that, in fact the very opposite will happen, as Paul and I can testify too(Rom7:7-13)
 
Someone says to a young teenager
‘’The righteous/justified will obey the TC, inheriting eternal life hinges on it, or, as the title of the ops thread states: ‘’The new covenant is the TC’’
Let us suppose the young teenager is not in ignorance as to what is entailed in obeying the TC, they know no watered down version of them exists. Before them stands the tenth commandment. They must NOT dwell on any impure thought. What will go through the young teenagers mind?

‘’I must not dwell on any impure thought, if I do it shows I Am not justified before God and will end up in hell’’
Im sure the young man would be petrefied of such thoughts, what could you fear more, as a believer than being cast into hell for eternity?
Can you escape thinking of what you fear, or, will thoughts of what you fear consume you? Speaking for myself, when I was young, the more I feared something, the more wild imaginations went through my mind concerning what I feared, and so, concerning the young teenager:
‘’I don’t want to go to hell, I must not dwell on any impure thought, I must not’’

What will be the result? Well it shouldn‘t take much discernment to know. But Paul can explain it. In Rom7:7-11 he is speaking of the time the law came to him, as a thirteen year old, for that is when a young Jewish lad made a personal commitment to God:
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. Rom7:7&8
The law is indeed, holy, just and good, but sin takes advantage/occasion of what is holy just and good to arouse all manner of sin in you, IF you live under righteousness of obeying it, in your Christian life.
Hence:
The power of sin is the law/the legally binding law with the power to condemn 1Cor15:56
Sinfull passions are aroused in us by the law Rom 7:5
Sin took occasion of what is holy, just and good to arouse all manner of concupiscence in Saul the Pharisee. Rom7:8
Therefore:
For sin shall no longer be your master for you are not under law/righteousness of obeying the law but under grace/righteousness of faith in Christ Rom6:14
Impossible to believe IF you believe you must obey the TC to prove you are righteous before God and may then inherit eternal life
For those who have the luxury of not having heartfelt conscious of sin much of the time concerning transgressing the TC, the above will be ignored or flimsically dismissed
 
The purpose of the law was to lead us to Jesus, because it was not able to save anyone. And now that He has come, His purpose to lead us to the law. This has been, and continues to be, asserted, in a nutshell. NO. Jesus leads us to the Father. He was sent by the Father and has obeyed in making us acceptable to Him. And Jesus sent the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, to testify to us our need of Him for life. Once we have attained to life, and have it eternally, what need do we have of any ministry of death? Why did Jesus command that we should worry for nothing, if He means that we should keep worrying about keeping the law?

Jesus will never lead anyone to not worshipping Him or breaking His holy Sabbath or stealing from our neighbor. The law leads us to Him, when we fall away from doing what God deemed is right, where does that lead us according to Jesus?

Mat 7:23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ (without law)

So when Jesus is speaking about worrying, not doing what is right is not what He had in mind.

Pro 28:9 One who turns away his ear from hearing the law, Even his prayer is an abomination.

Galatians 3:24 - Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. 26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 3:6 - who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. 7 But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away, 8 how will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious? 9 For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, the ministry of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.

Galatians 2:16 - knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.

comment:

What is it that leads us to our "savior"?
Our Passover, our sacrifice, the payment for our sins against our Father?

The Torah, the T/C does not lead, it only reveals That ONE Perfect Way! The mind of God.

The "school master" that explains, that was given to make us understand what Jesus Christ must do so we can live eternally in God's Family,

that school master is; The Sacrificial Law, that was Added to the Torah because men could not stop sinning.
that sacrificial Law revealed to us that our sins place us all, "UNDER" the penalty of Death from which there is no escape.


Either our blood or the blood of Jesus Christ must and will be poured out in payment.

Without our Passover willingly pouring HIS Blood on the ground -- we are dead for eternity. we would be with out hope.

One day all mankind will come to this understanding, we are not there yet.

Or they will come to the understanding that the law written by the Holy Spirit of Truth Himself, the Ten Commandments, that is in the Most Holy of God's Temple Rev 11:19 Rev15:5 that is perfect converting the soul Psa 19:7 is how we are supposed to live, told by God Himself, written by God Himself that sadly most reject, well at least 9 of the 1Ten Commandments. They have faith in 9 of them just not the one God said to Remember that He made holy and blessed.

God reveals the ark of His covenant at His Second Coming which is exactly what holds God's perfect law what He said we will all be judged by

Rev 11:18The nations were angry, and Your [h]wrath has come,
And the time of the dead, that they should be judged,
And that You should reward Your servants the prophets and the saints,

And those who fear Your name, small and great,
And should destroy those who destroy the earth.”
19 Then the temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of His covenant was seen in His temple. And there were lightnings, noises, thunderings, an earthquake, and great hail.

Isa 48:13 Oh, that you had heeded My commandments!
Then your peace would have been like a river,
And your righteousness like the waves of the sea.

Sabbathblessing,

I have rested on the 7th Day Sabbath beginning in 1968.
I am in accord with most of what you write, but not all.
I can not find God is three persons. which I believe you do? Not sure.
God is a family, the Father and the Son. no ghost,
and They are birthing sons into the Family.

We are close to that day! thank GOD!
