Oh, would you quit woth the “ignore the law” hogwash. NOBODY is saying that, and you have been told this MANY times. Do you think you can continue to bear false witness and not face consequences for it?

That’s an easy question: I have other plans. 😎

In Daniel 2:44 it says, "And in the days of those kings [the fourth kingdom] the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, nor shall the kingdom be left to another people." The verses below show that the kingdom of God came with Jesus. Matthew 12:28 But if I cast out...

In Canada, we have four major federal political parties, and several smaller ones. We are not forced to choose "one side or the other". I don't know about the political structure in other countries, but political parties aren't the answer anyway; Jesus is.

The dietary laws are part of the Law given to ancient Israel. They were not given to gentiles and were not reiterated to Christians in the New Testament.

Thanks… it’s sadly rare that people actually support their claims. Greece was the third kingdom, and never ruled over Britain, Scandinavia, or China. That non-Christians still rule the nations (all of them) does not mean that Jesus’ kingdom has not come, for it came when He was born and has been...

You have more homework to do.

My “opinion” is shared by those who have studied the Bible directly rather than forming their position by reading commentaries.

I agree with your basic premise, but please remember that this is an international forum, and that most Christians don’t live in the US and don’t face this false dichotomy.

Correct; Matthew 5-7 is indeed written to Christians, for Matthew intended his gospel to be a record of Jesus' life and ministry for the teaching and edification of Christians. However, Jesus' words as recorded in Matthew 5-7 were not spoken to Christians, but to Jews. Matthew merely recorded them.

It's sad that so many commentators hold to an idea that has no basis in Scripture.

To whom was Jesus speaking? Christians? No. To Jews, who were still under the Law.

Please quote the Scripture that clearly identifies and distinguishes them.

When you learn how to interpret and apply context, you will understand why I disagreed with your post and called your position unbiblical.

Wrong. The Law is one unit, with many component statutes. You break one commandment, you have broken the Law. You fail to carry out the commandment, and you have broken the Law. Jesus didn't even remotely hint that the statutes He mentioned were the only applicable statutes. You may be...

I don't believe either. What I do believe is that the idea that the sun is consistently blocked by moisture, etc. sufficient to explain sunrise/sunset is nonsensical and counterfactual.

To the title question: It is here, so the question is moot.

You had better start stoning all the adulterers in your church then. No, just your unbiblical misunderstanding thereof.

Where is ‘the world’ in the text? I don’t see it.

Firstly, for future reference, the Family Forum is a great place for this issue. :) Secondly, what the (***) are you doing sharing a house with a man twice your age, if he isn't your father? None of my business, but it does seem rather... inappropriate. You have another roommate who is female...
