Can you show me anywhere in the entire Bible, where the phrase "works of Keeping the Law" is spoken?

Shouldn't a man study to find out what "Works" of the Law the Pharisees, who Paul was contending with, were prompting for remission of Sins?

Will you answer one question for me please. In the Law and Prophets, when a man sinned, what "works" did Moses require this man to do, before his sins were forgiven?"

I look forward to your answers.

Hebrews 10:28 Christ is the Christian sabbath, we rest in him from dying under the law to live in grace and the power of GODS love by HIS spirit. This work of GODLY love is not our own, it is GOD working in us, we are GODS workmanship. Everyday is our rest from trying to work in the law , from conversion forward we sabbath in Christ. The sabbath of the law was ceasing physical work but the sabbath in Christ is ceasing from trying to do a work we are unable to do and in faith let GOD and Christ work in us. The letter kills it’s the spirit that gives life.

I have started to post a quick study on the sabbath, I will complement it and edit it over time here is the first draft, let me know if there are any errors, it is not complete there are so many things we can write about the sabbath. I am only touching a few concepts, all is based on scripture as I always do. My only bias I admit is towards the teachings of Jesus, and will always be so.

Why we are supposed to keep the sabbath

Why we are Supposed to Keep the Sabbath

Part 1 of 5: The Sabbath in the Ten Commandments The Sabbath was established by God at creation as a sacred and sanctified day. In Genesis 2:2-3, it is written that God completed His work of creation on the seventh day, rested, and blessed it, making it holy. This act was not because God was...

John 13:34 Mark 12:29-31 Notice Jesus said ”there are No Commandments greater than these”, these two commandments are greater than the Ten Commandments. People fail to see that Jesus came to save us from the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, the Ten Commandments. 2 Corinthians 3:7 It should be obvious that no one can keep the Ten Commandments because all have sinned and , 1 Corinthians 15:56 It is spiritually illogical to continue trying to keep a law that you can never keep. The two commandments Jesus gave are kept by GODS love in us. Romans 5:5 Romans 13:10 This GODLY love by HIS spirit is what will fulfill the law. This is GOD working in us rather than we attempting to keep a law that only kills us. Trying to keep the Ten Commandments is your work but the two greatest of all commandments that Jesus gave are GOD working in us. What the Ten Commandments could not do GOD did, Romans 8:3 Galatians 4:4-5 Hebrews 10:1-10 Romans 3:20 Acts 13:39 Galatians 2:21 Trying to keep the old covenant Ten Commandments actually denies all that Christ did and you will fall from grace. Galatians 5:4 If we have been given a new covenant then why do people still want to be under the old covenant ? None of this writing will have any effect on a die hard law keeper because they are not converted and can’t understand.

I said, all along, I believe in a globe earth and in Genesis 1. How do you get that I am stating a belief in a flat earth, from that?

Simple.
Genesis 1 tells us WHO created the world/universe.
It does not say what shape he made them. That is not the purpose of the Bible; it is not a science textbook.

..... However I would not consider himself evil, rather the powers that have been behind NATO expanding towards Russia despite their promises not to.

You have one unlikely bedfellow (or had since he died in 2015) in the person of Malcolm Fraser, former Prime Minister of Ausralia from 1975 to 1983.

He was conservative to his bootlaces during the Cold War, but realistic in his post cold war thinking.

The following article was the result of an interview by the Emeritus Professor of Politics, Robert Manne.

Robert Manne - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Robert Michael Manne AO (born 31 October 1947) is an Emeritus Professor of Politics and Vice-Chancellor's Fellow at La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia. He is a leading Australian public intellectual.

The link regarding Malcolm Fraser's thoughts on the post cold war order follow.

Malcolm Fraser: An unlikely radical

Hated by progressives for his role in Gough Whitlam's dismissal and his ultra-conservative foreign policies when Liberal PM, Malcolm Fraser today believes Australia should cut all military ties to the US.

www.smh.com.au

Fraser tells me he was once convinced the swift and peaceable end of the Cold War would create a better world. Ruefully, he concedes he then did not believe it possible that the hope of a new world order powerfully articulated in March 1991 by George Bush snr - of international co-operation under the rule of law - would be so swiftly and comprehensively squandered.

Why did this happen? Fraser places most of the blame on the post-Cold War leadership of the sole remaining superpower, the US. Bill Clinton had no feel for foreign policy. At the end of the Cold War, having served its purpose, NATO should have been wound up.

Novena for the Holy Souls Day 6 11-27-25

My Divine Redeemer, Thou didst die for me on the Cross, and hast so often united Thyself with me in Holy Communion, and I have repaid Thee only with ingratitude. Now, however, I love Thee above all things, O supreme God; and I am more grieved at my offences against Thee than at any other evil. I will rather die than offend Thee again. Grant me the grace of holy perseverance. Have compassion on me, and, at the same time, on the holy souls suffering in Purgatory. Mary, Mother of God, come to their aid with thy powerful intercession.

Say one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and the Prayer to Our Suffering Saviour for the Holy Souls in Purgatory below.

Prayer to Our Suffering Saviour for the Holy Souls in Purgatory

O most sweet Jesus, through the bloody sweat which Thou didst suffer in the Garden of Gethsemani, have mercy on these Blessed Souls. Have mercy on them. R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

O most sweet Jesus, through the pains which Thou didst suffer during Thy most cruel scourging, have mercy on them. R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

O most sweet Jesus, through the pains which Thou didst suffer in Thy most painful crowning with thorns, have mercy on them. R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

O most sweet Jesus, through the pains which Thou didst suffer in carrying Thy cross to Calvary, have mercy on them. R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

O most sweet Jesus, through the pains which Thou didst suffer during Thy most cruel Crucifixion, have mercy on them. R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

O most sweet Jesus, through the pains which Thou didst suffer in Thy most bitter agony on the Cross, have mercy on them. R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

O most sweet Jesus, through the immense pain which Thou didst suffer in breathing forth Thy Blessed Soul, have mercy on them. R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

(Recommend yourself to the Souls in Purgatory and mention your intentions here)

Blessed Souls, I have prayed for thee; I entreat thee, who are so dear to God, and who are secure of never losing Him, to pray for me a miserable sinner, who is in danger of being damned, and of losing God forever. Amen.

I watched a YouTube video of this guy using a drone to carry a mesh antenna up to the legal limit for drones, trailing a wire down to a series of home built instrument which indicate voltage, which successfully resulted in a couple of thousand volts.

So free energy, right?

Not really, as there was only a tiny current so barely 100th of a Watt of power, insufficient to do any kind of useful work. Plus his drone was expending a huge amount of energy to carry the weight of the antenna and trailing lead, way, way more than was being generated. Of course he could have used a balloon, but that ignores the large amount of energy necessary to extract helium from the atmosphere in the first place.
There simply is no such thing as free energy.

Come on, destroy America? They don't want to destroy America, they just want to reshape it to a woke gender fluid commie socialist atheist Islamic Caliphate where the wealth is distributed to those who deserve it most with abortions and gender realignment services are performed free of charge without parental consent at the government run indoctrination centers formerly known as public schools.

This is exactly what you are suspicious of in post #684. They, just like you announce here, believe that they are lead by God and therefore immune to deceit.

CF Rules state "Stating or implying that another Christian member, or group of members, are not Christian is not allowed." Terms and rules

I don't know who the true Christians are, only the born again believer and God know. So I would never conclude that someone is not a Christian. But I can point out erroneous and unbiblical interpretations of scripture.

I'm not sure if you've ever heard of the expression "iron sharpens iron", this is where Christians encourage each other by sharing the truth of the gospel.

Or the likes of you. You've no guarantee that you aren't one of the Evil Robots, now do you?

Really? How interesting! How long have you been into amateur psychology?

Nah, I just sit back and marvel at the sort of rubbish that some folks believe that God does or doesn't do based on God-only-knows what. And part of the marvel is how that can blow and posture and pontificate s though they'd been given their, she we say, dubious, notions of what God will or won't do via Divine revelation of some sort.

How novel! I'd have sworn that He hangs on your every word. <Laugh>

The actually question isn't whether God should accept my counsel, but whether anyone at all should accept yours. I read the Gospels, and I read your beliefs, and I'm dogged if I see very much overlap there. Why did our Lord have to die if He had already who would roast and who wouldn't before He created Adam.

Could He have done that? Of course! Did He actually do that? If so, why? Why God through all the trouble of ctrting the illusion that there was hope for at least some of humanity, when in fact there was none? And why did our Lord say so much stuff that, if your pernicious beliefs are true, were simply false?

Nah, the trick is that if your rubbish was actually true, then the gospel is simply a practical joke played to see how many will fall for it.

Not with you, matey; on that we may rely.

The only way I could be one of the "Evil Robots", would be if God was a liar. But we know that it's not possible for God to tell a lie. He simply can't do it, so it absolutely impossible.

Here are just a few proof text confirming that I am already saved and nothing can change that fact. I'm a born again believer so all of the following verses are describing me.

John 3:16
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life".

John 5:24
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life".

John 10:28
"And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of My hand".

1 John 5:12
"He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life".

1 John 5:13
"These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God".

As you can see, there are no "Evil Robots" mentioned so you'll have to go and do some more homework.

Psychology is quackery, it has nothing to offer Gods elect. It's based on human wisdom and philosophy, and both have nothing but false hope to offer their victims.

God had no other option, but to send His only Son to suffer and die for the salvation of His elect. (Which is a small number, referred to as the remnant). It was impossible to forgive His elect, without having His Son stripped naked, then tortured to the point where He was unrecognisable. His back had flesh hanging of it from being whipped, they ripped His beard of so his face had flesh hanging off it and He was spat on by countless people.

Don't you think that God would have spared His Son all of that suffering and indignity, if there was an easier way. The only reason it doesn't make sense to you is because you're putting yourself (a totally depraved) sinner in Gods place (a Perfect and thrice Holy God).
You are judging God with your fallen mind, so it's no wonder you're theology is so messed up.

That is independent of the rules and doctrines of their denomination? Focusing only on the Gospel of the Kingdom? Won't find one.

There is only One true Church and only one true gospel. The one true Church is not governed by any "denomination" or external authority. Our only authority is the Lord and His Word.

The Lord Jesus is the Head of the Church, and all of Gods elect from every age are members of His body. If you asked God to lead you to a true Church, He will. But it might not be what you're expecting and you may not like hearing the truth of the gospel.
