Man/Israel's inability to keep their end, which they ALL agreeded to Ex 19:5 & ""8"" is part & parcel to the overall fault. Heb 8:8 say's as much. Heb 8:1 shines light as to why, the new covenant is Better. Heb 8:6 make's it even more clear. Old covenant was conditional on man...

Short answer No. Two covenants: One covenant (Old) that exposes, condemns & judges ALL sin Deut 28:15-68 Find ALL the CURSES imposed for breaking old covenant laws. Another covenant (New) that pardons/forgives ALL sin. Rom 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But...

1 Cor 11: 24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. (NOTE: Two ""keys"" here: ""eat this is my body, which is broken for you"" ""this do in remembrance of me"") 25 After the same manner also he took...

In the Genesis 1 account of creation. God gives the: "IT WAS GOOD" shout-out TWICE to day 3. Gen 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed...

John 1:16 you've been given grace upon grace. Where sin (to include unforgiveness) abounds, grace show up in super abounds (Rom 5:20). Grace is how we are saved thru faith (Rom 5;1-2, Eph 2:8). Whenever the indwelling Holy Spirit reveals sin in our life. We are to listen, acknowledge/admit via...

Again here, just my opinion: Approximate Nisan 14 timeline: Nisan 14 began at sundown. Jesus eats his last supper with his chosen 12 (7-9pm). They go the Garden of Gethsemane & Jesus prays (9pm -midnight) He is arrested (midnight) the Priests accuse, abuse & condemn Him (midnight-6am). He's...

I'm adding my opinion to this discussion. It's one of many posted in this thread. On Nisan 10 a Passover Lamb is chosen (Ex 12). It is inspected for any blemish until Nisan 14 when the actual sacrifice was made (Lev 23:5) Christ triumphal entry begins on a Sunday/Nisan 10. He is inspected for...

Jesus died on Passover, was buried on Unleavened Bread, rose on Firstfruits & sent His new covenant salvation/sealing indwelling Holy Spirit on Pentecost. At the 1st Pentecost: Moses gives the Torah/Commandments at Mt Sinai & the Nation of Israel is born (Ex 19:1-25). At the 1st post...

Before the Mosaic Law is implemented Abraham's grandson Jacob makes his own conditional freewill vow to God: "IF GOD" Gen. 28:20 And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and (IF GOD) will keep me in this way that I go, and (IF GOD) will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on...

My post said this: Repentance: Strong's Hebrews ( H7725:שׁוּב ) to turn back, return, a wholehearted turning to God. (NOTE: The different way repent translates in Hebrew vs Greek. John wasn't speaking Greek, nor was he preaching to gentiles. Gentiles had no relationship, no covenant, no hope &...

I have had other unfruitful water baptism discussions with you. Your position is water baptism is a salvation requirement. We disagree, out of respect to a brother Christian I'll briefly reply. In my opinion adding anything to faith in Christ sin payment & resurrection. Claims what Jesus...

I stand behind the post. Here is another from Hebrew dictionary translation for repent. I read several & chose to use Strongs (most popular today) in the post. Milon dictionary English-Hebrew repent (verb) Biblical Hebrew, the idea of repentance (to return) ! Repentance: Strong's Hebrews (...

LIVING WATER John 7:37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. (NOTE: Day 8, Feast of Tabernacles) John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and...

Webster's a great English dictionary. I think bible dictionary's are a better source for scripture. Matt 12: 24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. (NOTE: The Pharisees claim Jesus healing power is done...

The true gift of faith given to man is found in God's Son. John 3:34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. (NOTE: Jesus received an UNLIMITED measure of faith) Rom 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man...

Verse 1 refers to Nicodemus as a ruler of the Jews. As a ruler of the Jews he would have been well versed in all Mosaic law mandated ceremonial water purification rituals/ablutions etc. In my opinion adding water baptism to Jesus exchange with Nicodemus is a mistake. Clearly we disagree on...

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. (NOTE: Born again context here is speaking to a spiritual birth, No reference to water here) 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can...

Hi, 1st thought, parsing the last vs you provided: Quote"Get up and be immersed, and wash away your sins, calling on His Name". (NOTE: Clean yourself up in preparation to meet the Lord. Call on His name to have you sins washed away.) Ceremonial water purification rituals/ablutions/full...
