Paidion, I would suggest that everything after verse 15 in Luke chapter 1 is simply a description of who John will be. That can be determined by it beginning with the word 'for'. There are no rules broken when he says 'these things' because he was there to tell him he would be having a kid. The desc...

Once again, I'm not sure what commandment you think I'm annulling. Nor do I understand why you think I disagree with John 15:12 or 1 John 3:23. My Bible is in the car, and I only have a few more minutes here, but if you are referring to Jesus' statement about The two greatest commandments, given by...

Paidion, Yes, if taken at face value you could make an argument that the entire generation would have to be in mind if "race" is not what Jesus was referring to. But because of the fact that the group he was referring to is not that ambiguous, I truly believe it takes an exegesis of necessity to pre...

All of it that pertains to you as a man. That eliminates a lot of the commands in the book. Isn't that what everyone else is saying here or am I misunderstanding you? "As a man", I can see that a lot of the commands are specific to Israel which liberates me from having to obey them. Then, another l...

Dmatic, How does one live by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God? Or how is it that Homer isn't living by it, I guess I should say? I know,... what parts of Leviticus do you think I need to "live by"? Maybe that will narrow it down enough. And, do you think that the New Testament auth...

That is the best analogy I have ever heard. Thank you Homer.

Well, WWJD? Your degree won't open doors. God will. It is God who works in you both to work and to will... If you trust in God (and I am in no way trying to imply that you don't) then the next logical step in trust is to act upon that trust- that is, after all, the evidence of things yet unseen. $16...

How can one say that the command to not commit adultery is not a part of the true law of God? This law is found in the commandments given by God to Moses. It is this thought that I am reacting to. I agree that it is ridiculous to suggest that adultery, as long as it is done without lust in one's he...

To the original poster, I believe that he is saying to people under the Law that it is only beneficial to keep the Law. Maybe you should compare Matthew 5:19 to Matthew 11: 11 which says, "Truly I say to you, among those born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist! Yet th...

It would seem that, though you probably won't admit it, you would allow adultery as long as a person did it without lust in his/her heart. Or that murder should be OK, as long as anger is not residing there. Don't you see how ridiculous it seems to ignore the commandments that still define God's he...
