Jacob, do you think Paul was mistaken in writing the following? Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God. (Romans 7:4) But now we are released...

Old covenant law is not the only law found in the Old Testament. I'm still not tracking your logic. I thought we had nailed down that you saw our obedience was to Christ's commands and some commands you see subsequently in the NT. Now you are back to cryptic/vague language about OT stuff, and not a...

So we have more to obey than just what you referenced earlier as the commands of Jesus and subsequent commands in the NT? Not being born under the Law we must consider that which came before us which we did not know only through the study of the New Testament. You lost me again with this comment......

Ok, so the things we are to obey - according to you - are what Christ said to do, and subsequent commands found in the NT. We can leave it at that for now. So how do you get backwards to the Mosaic Law? By that the Law was not abolished by Jesus. So we have more to obey than just what you reference...

I am only talking about the more commands in the New Testament, after Jesus. Ok, so the things we are to obey - according to you - are what Christ said to do, and subsequent commands found in the NT. We can leave it at that for now. So how do you get backwards to the Mosaic Law? By that the Law was...

Sure. What do you believe would happen if you did not obey the commands of God found in the Torah/Mosaic Law? I'm not sure, but the only other things that enter my mind are obeying God's commands found in the New Testament. This would be Jesus' commands and more , and I believe Jesus observed and t...

Let me try going about this a different way: So why would you "do" the Law then? Do you mean why would I obey God by obeying God's commands found in the Law? Sure. What do you believe would happen if you did not obey the commands of God found in the Torah/Mosaic Law? I'm not sure, but the only othe...

Do you mean why would I obey God by obeying God's commands found in the Law?

Have you thought about God’s love for you? Have you thought about His commands to love Him and love your neighbor, your fellow man? Have you thought about His love for you in Jesus Christ, the love of Jesus for you, and what it means to be loved by God unto salvation? This is something your love can...

I understand some Christians are put to death for their faith. I am saying that if a person requires someone else to die for believing in the death penalty, while they themselves do not or that they do not believe in God , they are not standing for God or for God's Law they are actually fighting ag...
