Acts 15:6-19 New International Version (NIV) 6 The apostles and elders met to consider this question. 7 After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know ......... ..... 19 “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are...

Yes, I mean the law of Moses. The Gentiles are to follow the New Covenant doctrine (basically, the teachings laid out in all epistles and those of the Earthly Jesus that were not exclusive to the Jews).

All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. My interpretation: If you are not under the Law you will not be judged by the Law. If you are under the Law you will be judged by the Law. I am not under the Law and...

Paul is saying here that the Law was given to the people of Israel, but he doesn't say that Christians are supposed to keep it.

You're right! FOR ALL ISRAEL, not for the Gentiles.

Yes, I agree that Jesus amended the Law. Binding and loosing (like ABOLISH and FULFILL) are also idioms. Binding and loosing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Binding and loosing is originally a Jewish Mishnaic phrase also mentioned in the New Testament, as well as in the Targum. In...

This is very interesting! Jesus didn't say "don't stone her because I came to abolish the Law" or "don't stone her because the Law will soon be abolished". The Lord said they could stone her, but the one without sin should be the first to cast a stone. My interpretation is this: Jesus not...

God commanded us (through His son Jesus and through the apostle Paul) to stop keeping the law of Moses. We have to obey Him.

This is applicable to non-legalistic Christians. Those who claim the Law still applies, have to observe what is above and LITERALLY what is below: Season all your grain offerings with salt. Do not leave the salt of the covenant of your God out of your grain offerings; add salt to all your...

Up to this point I agree with you.

It's impossible to determine if I descend from Manasseh or Ephraim or Dan or Simeon or Naphtali or Asher or Issachar or Zebulon or Gad or Benjamin or Joseph or Reuben because all of them had big noses. Anyway ... great chances are I have some Jewish blood in my veins because my dad's nose was...

Interesting things! I'll respond tomorrow (God willing)!

Sorry, Wokinluv, I promissed to respond but I'm still unable. Tomorrow I will (God willing).

DeighAnn, I had a hectic day and now (20:50 p.m.) I still have things to do outside and will be back late. I'll respond to your posts tomorrow (if God grants me another day of life).

It's time for bed here. I'll be back tomorrow night, if God is willing. Good night!

Wokinluv, I was busy most of the day and tomorrow it will be the same. I won't be able to respond to your posts until tomorrow night.

Wait a moment! Now I remember ... my dad had a big nose ... maybe I have some Jewish/Hebrew blood.

You didn't answer my question.

As far as I can remember I'm not one of the scattered sheep. The best words I can think of to describe myself is "a former unbeliever".

You guys listen only to part one of the Gospel (before the ascension). "Listen to Him" means you must listen to the whole message (part 1 and part 2). Part two is found mostly in Paul's letters.
