In Proverbs 3:5-7, we have a choice between whether we are going to lean on our own understanding of right and wrong by doing what is right in our own eyes or whether we are going to trust God with all of our heart to correctly divide between right and wrong through obeying what He has...

You certainly have the freedom to do that. Care to discuss why?

That notably does not say that we don't need the Law of God if we are led by Spirit, but just the opposite, it says that that the Son condemned sin in the flesh that the the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us. Moreover, in Romans 8:4-14, those who are born again of the...

Then perhaps I have misunderstood your position, but there is no reason to act like I'm not speaking with you. What do you mean by speaking about the Mosaic Law expiring if not that we are no longer obligated to obey it?

It is by the Mosaic Law that we have knowledge of what sin is (Romans 3:20), so the position that the Mosaic Law has expired is the position that we are now free to do what God has revealed through the Mosaic Law to be sin.

In Acts 5:32, the Spirit has been given to those who obey God, so obedience to God is part of the way to receive the Spirit, however, Galatians 3:1-2 denies that "works of the law" are part of the way to receive the Spirit, therefore that phrase does not refer to obedience to God. In Romans...

Why do you think that I am talking to my imagination?

Sorry if. my last post wasn't clear, I wasn't meaning to suggest that all of God's laws have that condition, but rather I was using laws that have conditions to demonstrate the point that there is nothing wrong with not following laws that don't have their conditions met. In Acts 15:11, it...

In Jeremiah 31:33, the New Covenant involves God putting the Mosaic Law in our minds and writing it on our hearts, so while we are not under the Mosaic Covenant, it nevertheless also falls under the New Covenant. Psalms 19:7-11 The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of...

I think that I am talking with you. If you think that I don't know what I'm saying, then I welcome you to explain why you think that is the case. The Bible repeatedly states that the way to find life is by obeying God's commandments, which is what I have been promoting.

The Mosaic Law consists of the laws that God gave to Israel through Moses as a mediator, which has 613 laws, ten of which are the Ten Commandments. However, even when the law was first given through Moses, there was not a single person who was required to keep all of them, and not even Jesus...

In Matthew 7:23, Jesus said that he would tell those who are workers of lawlessness to depart from him because he never knew them, so the law leads us to Christ because it teaches us how to know him, or in other words, how to have a relationship with him, but it does not lead us to Christ so...

Nowhere is that stated in the Bible. In Acts 5:32, the Spirit has been given to those who obey God. In John 16:13, the Spirit has the role of leading us in truth, in Ezekiel 36:26-27, the Spirit has the role of leading us to obey the Mosaic Law, and in Psalms 119:142, the Mosaic Law is truth...

The context of Habakkuk 2 speaks against pride, who heaps up what is not his own, who gets evil gain for his house, who builds a town with blood and who founds a city on iniquity, who makes his neighbor drunk in order to gaze at their nakedness, and who practice idolatry. You should not...

If I were going camping with a friend who promised that they were going to bring all of the food and water for the week, then if I said that I believed them, but I brought extra food and water just in case they didn't do what they promised, then my actions would reveal I didn't really believe...

In Acts 5:32, the Spirit has been given to those who obey God, so obedience to God is part of the way to receive the Spirit, however, Galatians 3:1-2 denies that "works of the law" are part of the way to receive the Spirit, therefore that phrase does not refer to obedience to God. In Romans...

I did not disagree that we have been declared righteous by faith, but rather I spoke in regard to what that means based on Proverbs 3:5-7. When we do good works in obedience to the Mosaic Law, we are testifying about God's goodness, which is why our good works give glory to Him (Matthew 5:16)...

How does it make sense to you to think that God nature is eternal while the way to act in accordance or contrary to His nature is not? In Romans 7, Paul said that the Law of God, that he wanted to do good, and that he delighted in obeying it, but contrasted that with the law of sin, which was...

In Proverbs 3:5-7, we have a choice of whether we are going to lean on our own understanding of right and wrong by doing what is right in our own eyes or western we are going trust in God with all of our heart to correctly divide between right and wrong through obeying His instructions in all of...
