When did I say I didn't see Gods love in the old covenant?
No sorry, when you speak about grace it is as if you only see it in the New Covenant. My mistake if that is not the case.
When did I say I didn't see Gods love in the old covenant?
But neither you nor go tine relies on the holy spirit to lead you into truth, you both hinge everything on the literal letter.
The Pharisees of Jesus day knew the literal letter inside out( I am not saying you are a pharisee) but that didn't mean the knew the truth does it
You both rely on the literal letter to know Gods laws, yet it is clear as day written that law has been placed within you.
Therefore if the holy spirit was leading you both you wouldn't rely on the literal letter to know what sin is would you.
So of course go time is dumbfounded as to why he and I see things so differently. He has a religion of looking to the literal letter i have one of relying on the holy spirit to reveal the truth of what that letter contains.
It isn't about being better than anyone else, but who or what you rely on in the faith
This is a pretty bold statement to make. How do you know this? Because I like to quote the Bible? My friend without the Bible the Christian religion will be a free for all. With the Bible we could narrow it down to 30,000+ denominations.
You are absolutely right they did know the law inside out and that is why Jesus said we should do as they say but not do what they do. They were corrupting the Torah with the Talmud, and that is mixing the seeds. God hates it if we mix the seed. That is why Jesus was so outspoken about it
No he is dumbfounded because he has the knowledge of God given to him by studying the word of God and guidance from the Holy Spirit. We can't have the one without the other. Yes the Spirit will guide us but the Bible teach us that there is a false holy spirit working on earth. If you don't have the knowledge (of the Bible) you will not be able to distinguish. Jesus even said that people will be healed in his name but He will not acknowledge the person doing it. He will send him away with the words "I never knew you".
So a relationship with the Holy Spirit is important but you need knowledge to distinguish the spirits my friend. Our fight is not against flesh but against the spirits. We can be deceived in the spirit without Biblical knowledge.

Do you agree with go time in that a person can dwell with God in heaven without firstly having received eternal life? Just wondered. Do you believe he got that knowledge through studying the word?
I know you don't rely on the holy spirit to lead you into truth. I gave you an example as to why that was. I wont repeat it, cant copy paste at the moment I am on a mobile.
I actually don't understand what you are asking because I didn't read the full conversation between you and Gotime.
You can think you know what you think to know but that my relationship with God is not between James and God![]()
BTW there are 30,000 plus denominations because people read the bible and come to their own interpretation of it, rather than relying on the holy spirit to lead them into truth.
I repeat, it is not enough to just read and study the literal letter, the Pharisees did that, so have Mormons, jws and muslims
And you will have 29,999 denominations telling you you are wrong.
Without the Bible to back you up you have 1/30,000 chance to be correct. That is a 0.003% chance of being right without the Bible. Good odds
I can tell you the Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses and Jews are wrong because I can show them from the Bible. What are you going to tell them? The Holy Spirit told meI am sure you will have good results...

And they will quote the literal letter to you to tell you you are wrong
But the difference between you and me is huge, and we cannot both be right
As i have read the bible and have the views I do, you must believe I am in open rebellion against God and committing wilfull sin without conscience every week. Can you accept that must be true according to your belief through studying the bible
I know I am not in open rebellion before God on this issue and have no conscience I sin by not following what you insist I must follow.
We cannot both be right, one of us is completely wrong and therefore not being led of the holy spirit into truth. Ons of us doesn't understand the true message

And the one who doesn't understand the true message is the one who look to the literal letter to be guided as to what sin is, for the letter God requires you to keep is within you. That is plainly written in the bible you insist we must follow
Wisdom is always proved right by inconsistencies
Hos 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
So what verses in the Bible are relevant to modern day Christians?
Where the law is concerned the following:
This is the covenant I will make with them
after that time, says the Lord.
I will put my laws in their hearts,
and I will write them on their minds.’[SUP][b][/SUP][SUP]17 [/SUP]Then he adds:
‘Their sins and lawless acts
I will remember no more Heb 10:16&17
Now that is what is written in the bible you insist we study and follow
Lol I don't believe that, how did you come up with that? Well it really does not matter, I don't believe that. close but not right.
So if you share the gospel do you tell people it is a free for all as long as the Holy Spirit don't convict them?
Lol I don't believe that, how did you come up with that? Well it really does not matter, I don't believe that. close but not right.
