Did Jesus ever tell us that we no longer need to keep the law of Moses?

So I quoted him saying obedience to the la leads to eternal life.

Was I wrong?

Or do you agree with him?

I would quote scripture explaining my choice and why I think it applicable to and appropriate for myself. This happens to me fairly often.

I wouldn't say 'I explained this once 6 years ago so I'm not going to tell you now'

I have a great little book that is all about it that is very eye opening. It puts all of Gods Word into a different light and really shows the hand of God in all that has/is going on in the world.

Sorry I haven't read his posts, when I came in I saw yours and just commented on what I saw.

You and I have a rapport!

I'll let the post speak for itself.

Because the law isn't the problem. You are. I am.

The obedience to the law is what leads to everlasting life. That's why we need Christ in our lives...to empower us to do what Christ did...obey.

Righteousness is the end result of the Holy Spirit anointing that yes, leads to Everlasting life! Do we accomplish it? No, we get out of the way... acquiesce! No room to boast there! But many give way to besetting sins and then as James said:

Jas 1:13-15 KJVA Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: (14) But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. (15) Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

Brother I am not going to enter an argument with anyone about once saved always saved! I've seen both sides of that argument and just realize we have no business even making an argument on this! Our part is repentance! Forget the rest of the argument!

That could be handy and could be risky interpretations. Rely on the Holy Spirit for Confirmation!

The obedience to the law is what leads to everlasting life. That's why we need Christ in our lives...to empower us to do what Christ did...obey.

Assuming "mature believer" means someone who also has faith in Christ.

As point of fact, correct, one who knows to do right but willingly does not, to him it is sin.

I'm not sure what you're getting at with the second question though, to be honest...

Let's take tattoos. Let's say prior to Christ a worldly person went and got a body full of tattoos. Now let's say that after coming to Christ they swore off getting tattoos because they read that Israel was commanded not to have tatoos...but his body is full of them, head to toe, and he can't afford to remove them.

Would he be given mercy? Of course. He doesn't want them and wants to be pleasing to Yah but can't do anything about his past. Is wearing tattoos against Yah's law. Yes. But his past was forgiven the moment he converted, and in his heart he wants to be pleasing to Yah and is not willing to have them anymore.

As far as blends, most of us don't make our own clothes. Living is this world of darkness, which was purposely designed to be contrary to the law of Yah (if only many of us knew what time it really was in this great drama), we're in a difficult situation where we MUST do our best to endure.

Can you afford to buy new clothes without blends? If the answer is no but your heart is in the right place not to want to wear them, are you given mercy? Of course. Same as the law of sacrifice. Can't afford to as instructed so mercy is given.

The tablets of the law were always covered by the mercy seat.

The heart that says "meh it's impossible to do so I'm not going to worry about it" is different from the heart that says "I don't know if it's possible to do but I want to do it and I'm going to try my hardest to please Yah by His grace."

One buries his talent of faith underground while the other works his talent of faith to reap a return from it, to make the Master proud when He returns.

To say eternal life is gained by obedience to the law is a pretty straightforward direct contradiction of the gospel.

Sorry, But you have been reading my posts. You read his, Because I quoted him in a response to you and asked if you agreed with him.

And your response was that I misread him

It did



There is no way to spin this. Just take it at face value

Because

Righteousness is the end result of the Holy Spirit anointing that yes, leads to Everlasting life!

But I misread him..lol

Wouldn't it be easy enough to simply block me EG? But no you won't do that will you, because you must 0_0 defeat me right?



Like I said, dishonest practices. You're doing what the pharisees would do. Below is the full post, at true face value without removal of any other text.

Doesn't matter how many times you quote the incomplete post the full post remains for the record.

This is how Christ saved us, to give us his Spirit, to walk as he walked in the flesh.

The job isn't complete until you're dead or transformed.

I gave you both the gospel of the kingdom and the gospel of Christ together in one nice succinct post.

- Salvation from Christ isn't everlasting life. It's freedom from the bondage of sin, and receipt of The Holy Spirit.

- Everlasting life, is the promised reward of the kingdom of Heaven; immortal transformed bodies. Glory. Which only comes through obedience becausethe law is life.

One is freedom from the angel of death in Egypt by the lambs blood. The other is the crossing over into the glorious promised land.

Are you freed from sins bondage through the blood of the lamb, EG? Yes, through faith.

Do you currently have everlasting life, EG? No. That comes when Christ returns and rewards the obedient.

"Good master, what must i do to inherit eternal life?"

"Obey the commandments."

"I've done that since I was little."

"Then there's one last thing, sell everything, give the money to the poor and follow me."

Revelation 14:12
"Here is the patience of the saints, they that (a) keep the commandments of God and (b) the faith of Jesus."

I do understand they quit abiding by the Mosaic Covenant but the Abrahamic Covenant was an everlasting one. Gen 17:4-7.
Heb 6:13-20 because God had sworn to it by an oath and because it was impossible for God to lie, the Covenant is immutable. It doesn't depend on the "descendants".

Salvation from Christ isn't everlasting life. It's freedom from the bondage of sin, and receipt of The Holy Spirit.
