OK, but I see no relationship to your verses unless you are trying to say we are obligated to the law.

And they still failed.bugkiller-
'The law' as we know it today refers to the 613 laws and commandments found in Torah, and listed by Rabbi Maimonides. However, at the time of Christ's coming among us there were literally several thousand other laws attached to these 613.
The Sadducees of the 1st century didn't believe in an afterlife or a resurrection, because neither was to be found in Torah. For this reason their branch of Judaism stayed with the basic 613 laws and commandments of Torah. However, the Pharisees, another branch of Judaism which St. Paul himself was a member of, did believe in the resurrection.
But this posed a problem. The Pharisees, like the Sadducees, saw the laws and commandments of Torah in their initial form as purely societal in nature, rather than their being salvific. So in order to convert these societal laws into salvific laws they needed to add other laws to them in subsets which were attached to each law and commandment of Torah. According to my Jewish sources there were over 1,000 additional laws attached to the Sabbath commandment alone, and in order to obey this commandment in a manner that would ensure their earning salvation, they had to obey all 1,000+ laws that had been attached to it. The other laws and commandments had their own subsets attached to them, so the number of laws which the people were taught that they needed to obey in order to be righteous in 1st century Judea ran well into the 10's of thousands.
How can this be? I and others have both quoted and refered to Rom 7:6 many times.We are obligated to fulfill the law it seems.

Ro 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Ro 7:14 ¶ For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
Ro 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
Right, it's impossible to live up to God's will for man unless we're Spiritual-led by the Spirit, under grace. The alternative is to be under the law, where even the strictest obedience would be a pretense at best-with the law remaining unfulfilled in point of fact.
For me the law is good. I grow tired of this debate. I don''t believe Christians need to observe Sabbath or Moses law, however the things taught by the Lords apostles come from the law. Its my duty to serve Christ by obeying Him and the apostles, you all can do whatever you want. This law debating makes me ill. I just want to discus the law of Christ, not the SDA, EO, RCc, Moses or whatever.
G'night folks.

I did not use the large blue letters in my title because I think they all appear in black and same text size.
It seems to me there is some dispute what the law is. Does "the" word have a specific or limiting meaning to a word following it? Is the law the all inclusive law of God? In this case are the grammer rules of English and Greek different? I wish to have demonstrated through text what the truth is.

I see Lambster must be bored again or is lonely for bugkiller. Both are possibilities.Hi,
In simple term, the Law is in question as to which law? One may question the Law of Yahweh while looking from a gentile mind, which is reversed law, and it forms the character of the individual.
In the case of Creation, the Law was defined in characteristic order and then used to Create all of Creation. G-d's law is written in all that He created, and like magnets where the opposite poles are attracted, and visa verse.
If the Law is upright then, all of Creation is in paradise but this changed with the gentile age of mankind, which is of this world, today. This is what we will be saved from.
The adversary flips the upright law that is written in human form to create a monstrous being that opposes G-d because it then is a reflection of Satan. The devil mimics all of G-d's works, and in reverse order.
The Law of G-d, which is Truth was defined in Spirit form first so to be installed/written in G-d's creation of humankind, and if we have not His Law we then are nothing but dead spirit manifest in flesh.
We cannot do away with the Law of G-d or else we evolve into extinction, which is the path that we are on now until we see the Lord come and believe on Him, and His Law. The gentile nation will be grafted into the Tree of Life so that it may bear good fruits, instead of bad fruits which are poisonous to the soul.
Thanks
What? no come backs.

The first thing I see is you're talking about a part of the law. I just don't see that in the OP.
What is reverse law?
What changed with the gentile age of man? There were no Jews or Israel for how long? So everyone was a gentile.
Now who is trying to do away with God's law (whatever you're saying it is)? You must be talking about something else besides the law as bugkiller says. You are saying something about the law of God. Is this is different from the law bugkiller talks about.
