    Justification by Faith

    By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. Rom 3:27 What He accomplished on the cross is affirmed in the new covenant. By his one sacrifice he has forever set free from sin the people he brings to God. Hebrews 10:13-18 [CEV] When He Himself had by offering Himself on the cross as a...

    "Born again" is not in the original text,

    But the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. Gal 6:8 For those who lean on their own understanding, the next step is inevitably grasping at straws, heading to perdition. None of the rulers of this age understood; The things of God are revealed through His Spirit...

    "Born again" is not in the original text,

    Seeing what was to come, David spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see corruption.

    From what law did Paul set us free?

    For He indeed gives help to Abraham’s seed; Heb 2:16-17 How then was it accounted? While he was circumcised, or uncircumcised? Not while circumcised, but while uncircumcised. And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while still...

    Are there still apostles today?

    Indeed. See to it that there is no one who takes you captive through empty deception, rather than the truth in Christ. Col 2:8

    Are there still apostles today?

    Why would we be instructed to "test the spirits" ? 'I know your works [wrought in God] and your labor and perseverance... you tested those who call themselves apostles [commissioned, sent, ambassadors for Christ] but are not, and have found them to be impostors.' Rev 2:2 Eph 2:18 For we both...

    Apostles are around today.

    Apostolic Ministry It must be someone who continued with us, [persevered]. For one of these must become a witness with us of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Acts 1:21-22 Who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed in due time. And for this purpose I was appointed...

    When did the apostles clearly see themselves separate from the OT Jewish religion?

    When their chains were loosed and they were free. Stand therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free. We bless Your name We give You honor We give You praise You are the life the truth the way

    From what law did Paul set us free?

    Abraham believed in God, who gives life to the dead ... being fully convinced that God fulfills His promise; And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness."

    From what law did Paul set us free?

    It is what it is. "It's hard for you to kick against the goad." Acts 26:14 But as for you brethren, continue in what you have firmly believed, knowing from whom you have learned. 2 Timothy 3:13-15 Everyone who has learned from God comes to Me. John 6:45 ... and their peace shall be great...

    From what law did Paul set us free?

    No surprise, you "law-keepers" are not known to be in agreement (As is the habit of some Heb 10:25). Some were convinced and some disbelieved. Acts 28:24-28 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. 2 Cor 6:14-16

    From what law did Paul set us free?

    How on earth would faith in Christ be contrary to God? (God, who cannot lie, promised and has in due time manifested Titus 1:2-4) Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? 2 Cor 13:5 Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. Rom 8:9
