What do you think about works?

There it is! The law written on the heart. How do we obey the resurrection power within? How does that power operate? By guiding us within the parameters of God's law written on our heart by God.

The entire New Covenant list reiterates what many here have said to those opposed. Well done. Where did you find that?

I disagree with most of this, not that I am any authority but the neither are you. The old covenant was given by a holy God who does not make mistakes, what the old covenant said for the people with understanding of that time was truth. We are to be able to read that truth in the old covenant. For example, they were told to cut skin to mark that they were set apart and belonged to the Lord. When that command, (and the command stood as truth) was given in our hearts, we are to mark ourselves as belonging to God without the need for marking our skin. They were to feed themselves with only holy food, not food from garbage. That is still true, but under the new covenant we are to know that the food for our soul is what is put in our minds, not our stomach.

There has never, ever been a time when work has equaled salvation, from the time spoken of in Genesis it has taken blood given by the Lord, yet you say that under the old covenant they taught work instead of faith. They had such faith in the Lord that they accepted the blood of animals as sacrifice for their sins, they weren't told it was the symbolic blood of Christ, they took it on faith.

Don't take my word for any of this, go to scripture. You will not find any scripture saying God took back his errors. God is holy, it tells us, God is perfect not the imperfect God you are telling of.

Sorry, where in this list of theirs does it say work equals Salvation? I think you quoted the wrong post?

It says that under the old covenant it taught works, but under the new covenant it teaches faith. Under the old covenant they taught law, under the new one they teach grace. Under the old covenant they teach works, under the new covenant they teach rest.

Yet under the old covenant you find teaching of faith and grace. Those are eternal truths, not old and new. The true law is the spirit of the law and it is eternal, not old and new.

Irony

Me thinks you have responded to a quote but not to the person who made the post.

The response above you responded to was not posted by @Blik

Under the old testament, just as under the new, obedience to the law of God was never taught as a means of Salvation. Works, leading to serve God's kingdom on earth, is both Old and New Covenant. Again, works do not save.
If we could work our way to Salvation, Jesus wouldn't have to have died to seal the New Covenant with blood, as was the tradition of sealing covenants.

You're mistaken.

Post 222

My friend I think you are.

Look at post 207.

@Blik did not post what @walknlight posted.

Now go back to post 225 your post.
You responded with a post from @Blik

I see you're taking lessons from Blik on misreading/misinterpreting/misrepresenting the words of others.

I challenge you to find a single post in this thread that "opposes" the truth that the law is written on the believer's heart.

I see you're slandering Blik yet again. Pack of Jackals. You're a shame. All of you are.
Every last person here who has ever insisted the law of God is done away. And slippery nonsense doesn't revoke that fact either.
When the opponents of God's law, even the law of Christ, as Christians know it, insist the law is done away they're not saying it is in our hearts. Obviously. When they insist the law is done away, that's finality. They don't say, the law is done away with but.....That would make no sense.

You know this. Don't challenge what you know the answer to.

No one here has said the law is done away

so while slandering others. Your prove yourself to be a slanderer yourself

shame on you

Or, to put it another way, you've got nothing.

I didn't judge you to be anything

I asked you a QUESTION

we must safeguard ourselves from making assumptions or to be condescending of others

major drama queen

tries for an emmy in every post

All these people are not really slandering Blik, they are slandering God. They speak against truth, not Blik. It usually it centers on that God changes with the new covenant, or that we must not mention working for the Lord. That is slandering God. Then their great refrain is that they are lily white, perfect humans, and Blik just misunderstands them. Or they, with their perfect understanding and their perfection are only training Blik in the truth. The idea that humans are discussing scripture is beyond their ability to comprehend.

is funny how they all act the same
