  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

    DO YOU KNOW WHAT PAUL SAYS ABOUT THE LAW ??

    The Psalm is addressed to the choirmaster. It says things things that are true about God’s law that should be believed regardless of whether or not you are the choirmaster. The NT authors quoted from the Psalms over 100 times in order to support what they were saying, so they had no problem...

    DO YOU KNOW WHAT PAUL SAYS ABOUT THE LAW ??

    You neglected to explain why you think those verses describe something that is harsh. In 1 John 3:4-10, those who are not doers of righteous works in obedience to the Law of God are not born again.

    DO YOU KNOW WHAT PAUL SAYS ABOUT THE LAW ??

    Please read Psalms 19:7-11 and explain to me why that sounds harsh to you: “The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening...

    DO YOU KNOW WHAT PAUL SAYS ABOUT THE LAW ??

    Indeed, if we are still required to refrain from doing what the Law of God reveals to be sin, then we are still under it.

    DO YOU KNOW WHAT PAUL SAYS ABOUT THE LAW ??

    Being judged by the law is far superior than perishing apart from it. In Romans 6:14, Paul described the law that we are not under as being a law where sin had dominion over us, which does not describe the Law of God, but rather that is the role of the law of sin.

    Matthew 1:21 - He will save His people

    It is by the Law of Moses that we have knowledge of what sin is (Romans 3:20), so Jesus graciously teaching his people to be a doer of it is intrinsically the way that he is giving us his gift of saving us from not being a doer of it. In Matthew 4:15-23, Jesus began his ministry with the Gospel...

    WHAT IS ROMAN 6:14 SAYING TO ALL. !!

    Paul’s letters were speaking to the people that they were addressed to in order to answer questions that they were having or in order to resolve situations that they were dealing with. Some of things that he said were very context specific while other things that he said were true regardless of...

    The Thing Most Sabbath Keepers Do not Talk About.

    So then what is the point of this thread?

    The Thing Most Sabbath Keepers Do not Talk About.

    You could say that about any law. You could also say that about being a Christ follower.

    The Thing Most Sabbath Keepers Do not Talk About.

    Breaking the Sabbath carries the death penalty, though the consequences for breaking God's laws are not uniform. Many of God's laws call for further explanation for how to correct obey them. For example, what exactly does it mean to commit idolatry? Can we eat food that has been prevopoisly...

    WHAT IS ROMAN 6:14 SAYING TO ALL. !!

    It's not speaking to anyone in particular, but rather it is simply equating delighting in doing the will of God with obeying His commands. Instructions for how to be a doer of God's character traits can't be set aside without first setting God aside.

    WHAT IS ROMAN 6:14 SAYING TO ALL. !!

    The Father has straightforwardly made His will known through His law (Psalms 40:8).

    WHAT IS ROMAN 6:14 SAYING TO ALL. !!

    In Romans 7-8:2, Paul said that the Law of God is good, that he wanted to do good, that he delighted in obeying it, and that he served it with his mind in contrast with the the law of sin, which was working within his members in order to cause him not to do the good that he wanted to do, which...

    WHY LAW OF MOSES. AND THE NEW COVENANT IS NOT TODAY V?

    In Psalms 119:29-30, he wanted to put false ways far from him, for God to be gracious to him by teaching him to obey the Law of Moses, and he chose the way of faith by setting it before him, so this has always been the one and only way of salvation by grace through faith. In Jeremiah 31:33, the...

    Teach Me, Lord, Your Ways

    The Hebrew word "yada" refers to intimate relationships/knowledge gained by experience such as with Genesis 4:1 where Adam knew (yada) Eve, she conceived, and gave birth to Cain. God's way is the way to know (yada) Him and Jesus by embodying His likeness through experiencing being a doer of His...
