If it was always God's plan to do away with the law like Paul said then why did he prophecy that in the end of days the gentiles nations will flock to Jerusalem to learn his law?Micah 4:2-5Many nations will come and say,“Come, let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh, to the temple of the God of Jacob.He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.”The law will go out from Zion, the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.He will judge between many peoples and will settle disputes for strong nations far and wide.They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.Everyone will sit under their own vine and under their own fig tree,and no one will make them afraid, for Yahweh Almighty has spoken.All the nations may walk in the name of their gods,but we will walk in the name of Yahweh our God for ever and ever.
>>18492503Zion is the body of Christ is the kingdom of heaven is the Law incarnate.You deny the divinity of Christ and should be seized by the body of Christ, and then held beneath water until you see the light or are no longer an impediment to the salvation of the light in Christ.
>>18492515If mental gymnastics was a sport christians would be the undisputed champions of it.
>>18492503>God's plan to do away with the law like Paul saidRomans 10:4:“For Christ is the end of the law FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that believeth.”No human can ever attain the righteousness of God by following the law, not even in the millennium when Christ reigns on earth as the passage you are quoting is talking about. It's something that only God can fulfill. Salvation works differently in different time periods, and in the millennium there is no faith involved because God is literally visibly right there.The believer in Christ is free from the law of Moses but is not free from the eternal principles found in the law of Christ. These commandments find their root in love. You are free from Old Testament cultic taboos for which no justification in nature or in reason could be given - such as wearing a garment that contains both wool and linen (Lev. 19:19), etc. But you are not free to do anything that you cannot do in love for God and in love for our fellowman.Salvation is a gift from start to finish (Rom. 6:23), but God’s grace does not mean we are given permission to sin (Rom. 6:1-2).A sinning Christian can lose his fellowship (1 John 1:6-7), his testimony (1 Cor. 8:7-13; Gen. 19:14 cf. 2 Pet. 2:6-8), his service (1 Cor. 9:27), his rewards (2 John 8; 1 Cor. 3:15), his health (1 Cor. 11:29-30), and even his physical life (1 Cor. 11:30, 5:5); but never his salvation.God created us to do good works (Eph. 2:10), and that grace teaches us to deny ungodliness (Titus 2:11-12). Throughout the New Testament, we are exhorted to obey God (Acts 5:29), and we are warned about sin (Heb. 3:13). But regardless of how obedient we might be, salvation does not come from our goodness, but through the grace of God given to us through faith in Jesus Christ (Rom. 3:21-22). The perfect righteousness that we need for salvation cannot come from ourselves. It can come only from Jesus Christ (2 Cor. 5:21).Christians are not under the law but under grace (Rom. 6:14).
>>18492503>>18492796So in the other words, the law has not been done away, but you can't attain righteousness by it anymore. If you are under the law you are under a curse, because you can't fulfill it, and you have rejected Christ with means you are condemned.Galatians 3:10-11 "For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith."John 3:18 "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."---Salvation is by grace through faith (Eph. 2:8-9, given by God, Romans 10:8 & 17) only in the one, final, effectual sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ (Heb. 10:8-12) dying in your place (1 Cor. 15:3-4) as a substitutionary offering for sin (Rom. 5:1-10). His blood atonement made for you is finished, so if you have received the Lord Jesus by faith (John 1:12) in your heart, you're forgiven of all your sins and are saved, once for all; finally and forever! (Rom. 8:38-39, Romans 4:5)The gift of salvation can't be earned, it's a gift: Eph. 2:8-9: “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Rom. 10:9: “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Confess The Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in prayer, that you trust in Him, not your own works. He atoned for your sins on the cross.www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VRT2FFXntchttps://truthischrist.com/seven/

>>18492796This is the lie that Satan tells you that it is impossible to be perfect and you shouldn't even try, that you should take pride in your imperfection. But why would God tell us to be perfect if being perfect easy impossible? Jesus also said to be perfect so clearly God is expecting perfection from us. There are many men God has called perfect in the bible.
>>18492503Why are theist schizos so obsessed with space?
>>18492895https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQ7PvxFpoBw>>18492980God called Job perfect too, does that mean Job was a perfectly sinless man? No, God had to correct him with pain. Job never stole, lied, compromised, cursed etc. He was more righteous than you, but he had a fault known only to God: Job was trusting his works to be justified. (Job 27:6, Job 32:1-2)Job's problem was the same problem every unsaved person has, they are justified in their own mind, thinking that God will spare them because that's what they would do if they were God.God allowed Job to suffer to teach him that his righteousness isn't good enough. If Job didn't suffer, he would not have known something is wrong between him and God. In Job 42, after God had finished answering, Job realizes God is doing right by letting him suffer, and repents (Job 42:6). After that God gave him twice as much as before. As long as you think you're good in your pride, you won't accept you're evil. This is the reason why humans suffer, to show they're not right with God, and strip away their pride, motivating them to rely on God, nothing else.We see that Jesus taught that the intention of the heart is important to God. This is because God’s heart is perfect. He is holy which is why He says in 1 Peter 1:16, “Be holy, for I am holy.” God is the standard of holiness, and Jesus reveals the necessity of the perfect standard.Can any Christian say that his heart is perfect and that he never falters? That he never looks upon a woman with impure thoughts? That he loves the Lord God with all of his heart, and that he loves his neighbor as himself, all with a perfect state of mind? The standard is absolute purity. None of us can claim that.A Christian does not abide or live in sin even if they mess up, do you know why? Because Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for their sin.Colossians 3:3“For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.”Romans 6:7“For he that is dead is freed from sin.”
Guys I just found out that Santa is an anagram of satan and I’m worried that Christmas might be demonic.Also in K-pop terminology a fan is “a stan” this shit is getting scary
>>18493568God has always been an outlet for people to explain things they don’t understand. Long ago they needed him to explain the rain, but now that has been made easy to understand
>>18493909>twice as much as beforeYeah it's a great message until you remember that what Job lost were PEOPLE
>>18493927Job did get a new family and his state was turned. That means he wasn't sad anymore like in the past.Job 42:10“And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.”So what is your argument? If Job was still sad and in torment even after receiving all the good things, then his captivity wouldn't have been turned.People think that due to all the bad things that happen in this world, there is no way God can repay that, there is no way that justice can be done and that the evil can never be repaid with good, but it can be.
>>18493981What i meant was suffering repaid with good, not evil.
>>18493909After the Lord had said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “I am angry with you and your two friends, because you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has.
>>18493981How can you look at a story where your benevolent god kills a man’s family and think “it’s okay because by the end of it he got a new family”?
>>18493568I don't think its unreal or anything but I'm also not an atheist
>>18494381No, the reason why Job's family died was to show him that he's doomed. The book of Job reveals the answer why God allows suffering in the world. Humans are suffering in this world to wake them up and show them their need of Jesus Christ, because God doesn't want them in Hell, which is worse than whatever happens on earth.If God had not done anything to Job, and just allowed him to continue as he was, Job would have always thought he was justified before God because of the righteous life he lived, which was wrong, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Rom 3:23). Everyone needs the mercy of God, because they are not perfect like Him.There is a meaning in suffering.
>>18494281Job says he doesn't justify himself (Job 9:20), but when he actually goes through suffering, the pride of Job is revealed:Job 27:6“My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.”Eliphaz and the other ones were wrong in their speculations about why Job was suffering, but only after Job had repented did God start defending Job and start giving him good things. God didn't allow Job to suffer for no reason, it was to make him stop depending on himself to be justified to God. He was holding on to "my rightousness".
>>18494547The Lord has dealt with me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me.For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I am not guilty of turning from my God.All his laws are before me; I have not turned away from his decrees.I have been blameless before him and have kept myself from sin.The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight
>>18494562Job 9:23“If the scourge slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.”People say things about God in the Bible that aren't true. You can be like Job and complain about how unfair God is that He won't explain why He does what He does, but when the Lord shows up and questions you for a while (Job 38-41), then all you will have to say is what Job said: "Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. ... Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes" (Job 42:3, 6).
>>184946171 Samuel 26:23The Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness. The Lord delivered you into my hands today, but I would not lay a hand on the Lord’s anointed.
>>18494533Yeah youre some sort of weird sexual masochist.How about you beg daddy god to rape you with a cactus so you know how much you need his mercy?
>>18494649Have you ever compared yourself to God's standard of goodness?HONOR YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER (Ex. 20:12). Did you always honor your father & mother? Have you forgotten?YOU SHALL NOT MURDER (Ex. 20:13). Jesus said that ANGER is the real heart of this commandment (Mt. 5:22). When we are angry with another we are saying, "You are my problem. If you were not here I wouldn't have this problem." Jesus says this is murder begun. Have you ever been angry at someone?YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY (Ex. 20:14). Jesus interpreted this commandment to mean that looking upon a woman with the view of lusting after her is the breaking of this command (Mt. 5:27-28). If you've lusted after a woman you've committed adultery.YOU SHALL NOT STEAL (Ex. 20:15). Have you ever taken something that belonged to someone else? Someone's wife, someone's possessions, a pencil, anything irrespective of its value?YOU MUST NOT LIE (Ex. 20:16). How many lies does it take to make a liar? Have you always told the truth?YOU SHALL NOT COVET (Ex. 20:17). "Covet" is the DESIRE to have what belongs to someone else. Your neighbor's house, wife, possessions, anything.There are over 613 commandments in the Old Testament and hundreds in the New Testament. James 2:10 in the New Testament says that whoever keeps the whole law yet messes up on just one point is GUILTY of breaking the law. No one will ever be good enough to go to heaven by keeping God's law; for His law only reveals our sin (Rom. 3:19-20).My friend, to be good enough to go to heaven we must have a righteousness that equals God's (2 Cor. 5:21). The "good news" of the gospel is that not only will Jesus forgive your sins, but He is also offering - freely - His very own righteousness as a gift (See Rom. 5:17).Are you going to say this to Jesus, trying to get to heaven according to your works: Matthew 7:22 ? Look at how Jesus responds to that in the next verse.
>>18494767Just because I am not rigtheous doesn't mean being rigtheous is impossible. It means I have not tried hard enough. God commanded us to be perfect so perfection is possible. If you persist in God he himself will make our ways perfect.Your country has 10,000 laws yet you're not in prison so you have managed to keep most of them pretty well.Jesus never said he would gift us his rigtheousness, he instead gave teachings on how to be righteous. Paul was the one who said we could rely on Jesus rigtheousness and I don't care what Paul has to say, he spoke against the law, against circumcision, against God's Sabbath, against not eating unclean foods, all things God said were eternal and everlasting ordenances. I don't care what Paul has to say.
>>18494840In Acts 15, James, all the apostles and elders, Paul and Barnabas are present when Peter agrees and is proclaiming salvation is only by grace trough faith, and that there's no salvation by law, or works involved to keep your salvation. Everyone there is in agreement. I guess Jesus made a bad choice with the people to give His message to according to you?Peter also affirms that Paul's letters are to be taken as scripture (2 Peter 3:15-17)The gospel of the grace of God was revealed to Paul to preach: Galatians 1:10-12The earthly ministry of Jesus and his Twelve Apostles was primarily to the Jews. He "was a minister of the circumcision". That's why when you're in the Gospels, most of the material is doctrinally applicable to the Jews. Outside of the atonement, the main purpose of Christ's earthly ministry was "to confirm the promises made unto the fathers." That is a reference to the promises made to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Jacob's twelve sons; but there is a broader application to all the Messianic promises of the Old Testament. The first advent of Christ was God's verification of the Old Testament (Deut. 18:15-22). Immediately, Paul follows verse 8 with "AND." What follows is an additional part of Christ's earthly ministry. Verse 9: "And that THE GENTILES might glorify God for his mercy." So there are times when the Lord left the dispensational confines of the Jews to minister to the Gentiles.Matthew 15:21-28, you have a Syrophenician woman who comes to Christ to have the devil cast out of her daughter. The Lord told her, "I'm only sent to the Jews. You're a Gentile dog." She didn't let that throw her. She said, "That may be true, Lord. But at least the master takes care of his dogs by giving them the crumbs from his table." And the Lord gave her what she wanted. (Matt. 22:15-46).If you want to only read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, then go ahead, but you are not rejecting Paul, you're rejecting God, because God is the author of the Bible.
>>18494983>I guess Jesus made a bad choice with the people to give His message to according to you?Jesus literally said the opposite. Jesus said that when he comes back in judgement day he will separate those who did good works from those who did not so good works and he is going to reward those who did good works and send those who didn't do good works to hell forever.
Seems like all planets in our solar system are uninhabitable. This world is packed with so many idiots and they all seem to impact me. I hope that if this can’t be fixed, a city is created in which only intelligent people are allowed to live. In order to be allowed to live there they have to pass a test to enter the city. It’s that or you can make something like a space station, like in the movie Elysium, but instead of rich people living there it’s intelligent people.
>>18495106He didn’t say that actually because Jesus like most Jews at the time didn’t believe in the immortal soul, he believed in bodily resurrection. The lake of fire is not a place of eternal torment, it is a place of eternal punishment, that punishment being that the people cast there are destroyed while the faithful live in heaven eternally.Read and understand your own fucking book before telling other people what’s going to happen if they don’t suck God’s circumcised cock
>>18495192This is just an idea. Intelligent evil people are clearly going to fuck it up again.
>>18495197I curse you, may evil always fall upon you.
>>18495106That's because after the church age God switches from the Gentiles to Israel in the great tribulation, until "the fulness of the Gentiles be come in".Elijah shows up in the Tribulation (Rev. 11). The Jews are required to bow down to an image in the Tribulation, or they will die (Rev. 13:14-15). At that time, it will take more than merely receiving Jesus Christ to save a man. The Body of Christ has been completed and is in Heaven (Rev. 5). The Holy Spirit is no longer working in men as He did in the Church Age. There are two bodies of saved people on earth: a Gentile body (Rev. 6) and a Jewish body (Rev. 7). In that day a person is saved by trusting Christ and keeping the Ten Commandments (Rev. 14:12) because worship of the Antichrist and his image is an automatic ticket to Hell (Rev. 14:9-11).Romans 4:4-5: "Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness."Salvation comes through faith alone, through doing nothing whatever but believing. So long as a man tries to do anything whatever to earn salvation, he cannot experience the salvation of God, which is received by faith alone. This was the great mistake which Israel made.Rom 9:31-33 "But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed."They tried to earn salvation by something which they themselves did in their own righteousness. As a result, they never entered into God’s salvation.This is the mistake Christians do, they think they are in the tribulation period where they need to do works to be saved, ignoring the doctrine of the Bible for them
