I can see how a person might make this mistake, But the Biblical Truth is that Paul calls the promoters and followers of the "Jews religion" the Circumcision, "made with hands". I posted the Scriptures, but perhaps you didn't read them. He also called men who didn't follow the "Jews Religion", the "uncircumcision". He also called the Body of Christ, the True Circumcision and that Jesus was "a Minister of this circumcision", "The truth of God". I posted the Inspired Words of God showing His Truth here as well, but you didn't acknowledge these verses either, I'm not sure why.
Because you left the context of Galatians 2. The issue is Titus not being compelled to be circumcised. NOT how it is fulfilled in and through Christ.
By Titus' refusal to be circumcised, he was not heeding what was written in the Law by the understanding of those in Jerusalem . This issue, not fellowshipping with Gentiles and taking on their customs is all being said in context verse 16 where it states Knowing that a man is not justified, made righteous out of the works of the law,
if not (unless, except) through the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed into Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. If righteousness were by the Law, the Book of the Law outside of this Faith then Christ died in vain.
Nothing in the context of the passage says otherwise.
We are not made righteous by the works of the Law, by what we do if it is not through the faith of Jesus Christ. The faith we now have through the changed heart. In that we have been begotten by the Word of truth. His Law, His Word is now in our heart and mouth that we do it. That is the Word of faith in which we preach. That is the Faith the just, the righteous live by that establishes the Law. We are a new creature created in Christ Jesus. All is new and of God who has given us this word of reconciliation. The new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Having put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: For We are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Again, there wasn't a LAW against eating with unbelievers,
Eating with would be considered fellowshipping, wouldn't it?
Gentiles would be unbelievers, unclean, heathen in the Jews eyes. The Jews have a law in the Book of the Law about not mingling with people who were not of Israel. Peter and the Disciples knew this was not an issue anymore through the Body of Christ, but when those of the Circumcision showed up, He got scared and lost his faith and disassembled himself from the gentiles because of his fear. And by his example others followed. Bad Peter...
This is what Paul is saying was going on. Here is the Law from the Book of the Law. It is repeated throughout the Law and Prophets. Even in the New Testament. in respect to the Body of Christ not fellowshipping with unbelievers. I will post that also.
I would be doing a disservice to our Father God, creator of Heaven and Earth if I did not mention that, if we who are of Christ would heed to the council of 2 Cor 6:14-17 we would have less issues in our walks individually and corporately as THE Church. The only fellowshipping we are to be doing with those do not know God and His Christ is to bring them to Christ. That means helping them when needed and sharing God's Word to bring them to God. Otherwise we are to be separate from them and their ways. As 1 Cor 5 also says, but in respect to the unrepented in the Church. A little leaven, leavens the whole.
All this, even to the heathen outside of the Church should bring sorrow to us when we reach the point when we have to heed this council, As Paul, in 1 Cor 5 also said, should you have not been puffed up but rather mourned, that they be taken from you?
Exod 34:12 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:
Exod 34:13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
Exod 34:14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
Exod 34:15 Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;
Exod 34:16 And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
2Cor 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
2Cor 6:15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
2Cor 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2Cor 6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
1Cor 5:2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
1Cor 5:6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
1Cor 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
1Cor 5:6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
1Cor 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
1Cor 5:10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
1Cor 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
1Cor 5:12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
1Cor 5:13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
Your entire premise is founded on 2 things.
#1. God's Laws were against Jesus, Paul and the Body of Christ.
No, once again you are not reading or maybe understanding what is being relayed to you. Faith establishes the Law. The Law is in our hearts and minds. His word is in our hearts and mouths. This faith is the faith in which we preach. This is the faith that establishers the Law.
If the Law is established by the just's faith; how is it that what is being preached to you against God's laws?
Nay it is establish!
#2. The Pharisees were trying to earn Salvation by obeying God's Laws.
Unless through Faith, the changed heart they were. But alas they were saying and doing not. Breaking the least and teaching men so.
Matt 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Matt 5:20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Your sermon on Galatians has raised many questions from me that I asked you specifically about. And how many did you answer Sir? Not One.
Are the theatrics for affect. As if they add any credit to what you post in regard to this topic?
