    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    It is those who do not continue to obey in the Book of the Law that are under its curse, not those who continue obey it (Galatians 3:10). To say that someone is righteous means that they are a doer of righteous works in accordance with God's law, for example, to say that God is righteous is to...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    Indeed, love fulfills the Mosaic Law because everything in it was commanded in order to teach us how to love God and our neighbor, which is why Jesus said in Matthew 22:36-40 that those are the greatest two commandments and that all of the other commandments hang on them. So the position that...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    It is contradictory to think both that Gentiles were freed from the Torah and that Gentiles were never under the Torah, though both positions are wrong. In Matthew 4:15-23, Jesus began his ministry with the Gospel message to repent for the Kingdom of God, which was a light to the Gentiles, and...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    Indeed and I have repented. Jesus is God's word made flesh, so saying that he is the only way to salvation is the same as saying that us embodying God's word through following his example of obedience to it is the only way to salvation. It is contradictory to think that we are saved by faith...

    The gospel of …..

    One of God's laws is the command to honor our parents, so the position that it is impossible to keep God's law includes the position that it is impossible to honor our parents.

    I did not use copy/paste in my reply to you, but rather those are my own thoughts on the passage. I've been replying to this thread for over the past hour, but I do not type 1000 words a second.

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    While we are not under the Mosaic Covenant, we are nevertheless still under the same God with the same eternal character and therefore the same eternal instructs for how to act in accordance with His character, which is why the New Covenant involves God putting the Torah in our minds and writing...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    The Bible repeatedly describes the Mosaic Covenant as being a marriage between God and Israel, so Israel got married to God, not to the law, but rather God's law was part the terms of the marriage covenant. There was no point in Romans 7:1-3 where the woman was set free from needing to obey...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    In John 1:17, there is no "but" in the Greek, rather John 1:16 says grace upon grace, so it is speaking about one example of grace being added upon another. In Psalms 119:29, he wanted God to be gracious to him by teaching him to obey the Mosaic Law and in Psalms 119:142, the Mosaic Law is...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    In Roman 7, Paul said that Law of God is good, that he wanted to do good, and that he delighted in obeying it, but contrasted that with the law of sin, which was workin within his members to cause him not to do the good that he wanted to do, so we need to die to the law of sin in order to be...

    You think that. I am a child of the devil for standing firm that we should obey what God has commanded in accordance with Christ's example? You're being absurd.

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    Jesus walked in obedience to the Mosaic Law and in 1 John 2:6, it says that those who are in Christ are obligated to walk in the same way he walked, not that those who are in Christ don't need to walk in the same way he walked. Moreover, 1 John 2:6 means that those who refuse to walk in...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    We do not need to die to God's instructions for how to live unto him in order to live unto him, but rather we need to die to a law that was hindering us from following those instructions, namely the law of sin. The fact that we do not earn our righteousness as the result of obeying God does not...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    In Deuteronomy 30:11-20, it is presented as a possibility and as a choice, not as the need for perfect obedience. Repentance doesn’t change the fact that we have not had perfect obedience, so if we needed to have perfect obedience for some strange reason, then repentance wouldn’t do us any...
