    Do you walk past a homeless person and how would a Good Samaritan act living in this age?

    Are you talking about people who are born in Romania (a country North of Bulgaria) or about people who speak Romani (the Gypsies)? It is true that some (maybe many) homeless people don't want to go to shelters. Some years ago there was a homeless woman near our home and I called a shelter. The...

    Do you walk past a homeless person and how would a Good Samaritan act living in this age?

    There's very little we can do on our own except giving them some food, some time, and respect. I think the best thing to do is to join an organization dedicated to the homeless.

    What was Sunday/Saturday sermon about?

    Last Sunday sermon was: The Lord's death on the cross. He suffered excruciating pain to ransom our souls back to God. Let's honor Him, living a life filled with His presence.

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    I confess that I didn't understand some of Jesus' teachings while I never had much trouble to understand Paul. For example: Jesus told His disciples to obey the scribes and the Pharisees whereas Paul said we are not under the Law. Why did the Lord tell us to obey the scribes and the Pharisees...

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

    Well, I think that for our God -- who created this whole universe out of nothing -- there's no difference between individual and collective rapture. For Him one day is like a thousand years, so it doesn't matter if His children are raptured simultaneously or not.

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    Maybe I'm using incorrect terminology. What if I say "New Covenant law" or "New Covenant doctrine"?

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

    I'd never thought of that! It makes sense! God doesn't need our remains to build new (celestial) bodies.

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    Before the cross Jesus told the Jews to keep the law of Moses according to His reinterpretation of it.. After the ascension Jesus told the Gentiles to live according to the apostolic law. I am a Gentile and live in the New Covenant era. I don't have to give away all my material assets; I don't...

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    Here is what Jesus said: The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat, so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. I said Jesus told his disciples to obey the Pharisees (observe what they say) - I didn't say Jesus told them to imitate the Pharisees' actions. What...

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    Most sincere Christians do everything that is required of them. There is not one Law zealot in the whole world who does everything that is required of those who claim the law of Moses still applies.

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    Again, I appreciate your honesty in confessing that you don't keep the whole Law -- you keep only those ordinations that you can keep. That means you are no different from us non-legalistic Christians. We, too, keep a big portion of the law of Moses; the only difference is that we don't call it...

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    If you believe ALL has not yet been fulfilled then you have to keep all 613 ordinances. If you break just one, you'll be guilty of breaking ALL of them.

    Did Jesus and Paul teach differnt gospels?

    In other countries they would not be able to keep all 613 ordinances. There would be no temple, probably they would not be allowed to sacrifice animals, to stone adulterers, etc.
