    Some Really Good News

    Impute Theology: Google ascribe (righteousness, guilt, etc.) to someone by virtue of a similar quality in another. "Christ's righteousness has been imputed to us" It's Christ's righteousness (Jer 23:6 & 33:16) imputed/transferred (Rom 4:3-8) onto us & our sins are imputed/transferred onto...

    THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ARE THE TEN CODES THAT WILL TEST EVERY RELIGION

    TAKE TO HEART THE FOLLOWING VERSES Num. 23:19 - “God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good"? Mal. 3:6 - "For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not...

    Law - Grace - Curse - Redemption - Righteousness

    Jn 1:17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. (MY NOTE: Grace = our undeserved/unworked for favor/blessing from God. Is accessed through our faith placed in Christ's sin atoning death & resurrection) Rom 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye...

    2 Corinthians 3: 6-9

    2 Cor 3: 6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. (MY NOTE: New testament believers are not ministers of the law. The laws purpose is to expose & condemn sins Gal 3:10,17,22-25 which...

    Galatians 3:8-14

    Gal 3: 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

    The Law or Love? Another one of my writings from around 2009

    The Law or Love When you fear the Lord and do his will out of fear, you are keeping the law. You do this because you fear his judgment on you if you break the law. This is good. This is the beginning of wisdom. Now when you love the Lord with all of your heart, you will do his will because...

    International perspectives on Abortion

    With the death of Ruth B Ginsburg the possibility of having enough conservative supreme court justices to reverse Roe v Wade looms. Or at very least to allow a change of the principles governing the law allowing for more flexibility on the state level or more restrictions overall. The principles...

    What scriptures brought you to a Messianic practice?

    Greetings, Brethren. I know what brought me to an understanding that viewing the Law, the Sabbath and the holy days was congruent with the good news of this new covenant through Yashua/Jesus our Lord, and I would love to hear what brought you here. Not all of us were raised in the Jewish or...

    A Contradiction Of Belief?

    Whether or not you believe we are in the new covenant or the old covenant, you may believe a contradicting Truth!

    Is the Sabbath an eternal moral law for humanity?

    Hi, I would like to once again challenge those Christians who keep a weekly Sabbath. I want to examine two lines of overlapping thought within the Sabbath keeping belief system. First is the view that because the Sabbath is listed with the Ten Commandments it is therefore a moral law (eternal)...

To begin I would like to ask, was the Sabbath given to man at creation as a special day to worship God? Let's look at the relevant text: By the seventh day God completed...

    Every jot and tittle

    Hi all. I've had a look at a few threads here which deal with the old law and how it correlates to the new testament. There seems to be a growing number of people today who want to go back to the old law as though the old ways are superior to what Jesus taught. I believe this video does a...
