Well, living like a Jew would have the greatest reward; but next to that, would be keeping the Noahide Laws and working with the Jews, for a lesser reward. The next best thing to that is just keeping the Noahide Laws without any involvement with the Jews. Then, in my opinion, next to that, is believing in the writtings of Paul, that tell us we are no longer under the law, but under grace; and belief in the trinity sounds like they're poly theistic which is straying from Deut. 6:4.

But then Revelations 22:14 says: Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.


As a Christian, I was ALWAYS taught: It's IMPOSSIBLE to keep the law, and they make it sound like a terrible burden to be under. Jesus tells us that we'll be least in the kingdom for breaking even the smallest one, and teaching others to do so, as well. Mat. 5:19

But a large percentage of the Jews had to be keeping ALL of the law from the time they were in the wilderness, till after the time of Solomon, or G-D would not have given them all of the blessings that they received, as he promised them, for keeping his Mosaic Law. Remember, way back there in the book of Joshua where G-D dried up the waters of the Jorden river, just so his obedient children could simply walk across on dry ground, and then he put the water back; and he held the sun still at the request of a man for a whole day; and that former nation of slaves conquered all of the armies in the land of cannan and ended up being the mightiest nation on the face of the earth through the time of Solomon, ALL because of their OBEDIENCE to the MOSAIC LAW, which today is spoken of by Christians with words that do not encourage anyone to want to know or do them.

Take a look for yourself at the laws that the writtings of Paul and the Christian churches speak so negatively of, discouraging believers _ even threatening them with Paul's words, saying, " he that lives by the law, shall die by the law "; but just remember that your following the advice of a man who says the opposite of what Jesus says, and the opposite of what apostle John says throughout his writings and even in the book of Revelation.

613 Mosaic Laws are ONLY for Jews to Keep, Gentiles Only have to Keep Seven,

Those who have never seen the MOSAIC LAWS, praised by every believer of G-D, except for those who chose not to follow Jesus, can, mabe for the first time in their life, see them at this site, http://www.jewfaq.org/613.htm , then honestly judge for theirself how terrible they think they are, and see if they agree with Paul.



Here is the testimony of one Jew who lived under G-D's Mosaic Law and didn't seem to have any problems with it at all; he actually seemed to love keeping it.

Psalm 119

1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.

2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.

3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.

4 Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.

5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!

6 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments.

7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.

8 I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.

9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.

10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.

11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

12 Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.

13 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.

14 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.

15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.

16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

17 Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word.

18 Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.

19 I am a stranger in the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.

20 My soul breaketh for the longing that it hath unto thy judgments at all times.




21 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments.



22 Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy testimonies.

23 Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.

24 Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counselors.

25 My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word.

26 I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me:

27 Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

28 My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word.

29 Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.

30 I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me.

31 I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.

32 I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.

33 Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.

34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.

36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way.

38 Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.

39 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.

40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.

41 Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, even thy salvation, according to thy word.

42 So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word.

43 And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.




44 So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.




45 And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

46 I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.

47 And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.

48 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.

49 Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope.

50 This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.

51 The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from thy law.

52 I remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself.




53 Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy law.




54 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.

55 I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy law.

56 This I had, because I kept thy precepts.

57 Thou art my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep thy words.

58 I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word.

59 I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

61 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.

62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.

63 I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts.

64 The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.

65 Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word.

66 Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments.

67 Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.

68 Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.

69 The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart.

70 Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.

71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.

72 The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.

73 Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.

74 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word.

75 I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.

76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.

77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.

78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.

79 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.

80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.

81 My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.

82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

83 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes.

84 How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?

85 The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.

86 All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.

87 They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts.

88 Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth.

89 For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.

91 They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are thy servants.

92 Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

93 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.

94 I am thine, save me: for I have sought thy precepts.

95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies.

96 I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad.




97 O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.



98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.

99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.

102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

106 I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.

107 I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word.

108 Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments.

109 My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.

110 The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts.

111 Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

112 I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end.

113 I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love.

114 Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.

115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my God.

116 Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually.

118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.

119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies.

120 My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.

121 I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.

122 Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.

123 Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy righteousness.

124 Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.

125 I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies.



126 It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law.



127 Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.

128 Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.

129 Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them.

130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

131 I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.

132 Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.

133 Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

134 Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.

135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.



136 Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.



137 Righteous art thou, O LORD, and upright are thy judgments.

138 Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very faithful.



139 My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words.



140 Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.

141 I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.

142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.

143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights.

144 The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.

145 I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep thy statutes.

146 I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies.

147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word.

148 Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.

149 Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me according to thy judgment.

150 They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law.

151 Thou art near, O LORD; and all thy commandments are truth.

152 Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever.

153 Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.

154 Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.

155 Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.

156 Great are thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy judgments.

157 Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

158 I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.

159 Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness.





160 Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.




161 Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.

162 I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.

163 I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.

164 Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.

165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

166 LORD, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments.

167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.

168 I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.

169 Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word.

170 Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.

171 My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.

172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness.

173 Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.

174 I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight.

175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.

176I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.

 

Ok, greenmachin-- I was just wondering where you stood and the pourpose of you post.

We as Christians are dead to the Law. Through Christ's death we are dead, but through His life, we have life. The law of Christ is above all. Hebrews tells us That in order to have a new covenant, the old must wax away, this was done in Christ, Now we have a New Covenant with a new Priest and a new order. For if the old one would have given life, then there would have not have been a chang, but the old covenant caused death not life.
So Christ who is ever living to make intersession for us, is the Priest of the New Covenant, God swore "You are a Priest forever, according to the Order of Mekelsidik" Not according to Arron or the livitical priest hood.

In order for a Testament to take effect, there must be the death of the tester. The old covenant was dedicated with the blood of bulls and goats and the sprinkiling of blood and Hysopp, the New Covenant with a greater sacrifice, and that sacrifice was Gods only Son.
The New Covenant went into effect after Jesus rose from the dead to give new life. So now the only law we have is Love your God your father with all you soul, and Love your neibor as youself. This is the law of love.

Jesus said "He that BELIEVES in Me even though he is dead, Yet shall he live." Thats all Believe. It has been the same since the beginning, all things that happend to Israel and the other Nations, happend because of Unbelief, same with Adam and Eve, even Lucifer fell because of Unbelief.

So the Laws you speak of even though they have some truthfulness of them, are waxed away, all is summd up in the 2 commandments that Christ gave us. For man cannot live up the the laws, but Christ did and through him we have eternal life, for those who believe.

I am not arguing with you, I am discussing with you, the thought's of our minds.
The bible tells us, those who try to live by the law, are under a curse. "Cursed is anyone who lives by the law, and doesnot do everything contained in the law", So I myself will live by the perfect Law of Liberty given through Christ.

Do you have any questions?

Hey Slimline, I found some more evidence that the Laws of Moses are still in effect.

But, luckily, only the seven are meant for Gentiles. Check it out below:


All your words are true; all your righteous laws are eternal.
Psalm 119:160.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is PROOF that "Apostle" Paul, is no apostle at all;

He's teaching you to DO the OPPOSITE of What the Law ACTUALLY SAYS, just read Below CAREFULLY:

Deuteronomy 28


1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.

4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.

6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.

7 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.

8 The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways.

10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.

11 And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee.

12 The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.

13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:

14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.





15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:



16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.

17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store.

18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out.

20 The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.

21 The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.

22 The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.

23 And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron.

24 The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

25 The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

26 And thy carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray them away.

27 The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.

28 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:

29 And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee.

30 Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof.

31 Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof: thine ass shall be violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue them.

32 Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long: and there shall be no might in thine hand.

33 The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed alway:

34 So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

35 The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.

36 The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.

37 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee.

38 Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but little in; for the locust shall consume it.

39 Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall eat them.

40 Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olive shall cast his fruit.

41 Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity.

42 All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume.

43 The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low.

44 He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.

45 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:

46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.

47 Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;

48 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.

49 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;

50 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:

51 And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.

52 And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.

53 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:

54 So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave:

55 So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates.

56 The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter,

57 And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.

58 If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD;

59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.

61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

62 And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the LORD thy God.

63 And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.

64 And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.

65 And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:

66 And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:

67 In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

68 And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.

This whole matter, only proves one thing:

that each of the writtings in the Bible,

have to be compared to what G-D Almighty delivered to the Jews at Mt. Siani.

If anything in that writting does not agree with the Word of G-D,

that was Delivered by G-D Almighty himself, at Mt. Siani,

then it certainly cannot be inspired by G-D.


And that would simply be the initial test.


All your words are true; all your righteous laws are eternal.
Psalm 119:160

Oh, so are we having a debate now, If so what exactly is this debate about?
Is it the Apostle ship of Pual?
Is it the Old Testament versus the New Testament?
What is the purpose, is it to change a mind?
Or the vadility of Gods word?


If it is all the above, I am ready, are you?
Do you realy understand the things you are proclaming?
Do you understand, that you have already, shown a lack of understanding of scripture, and in the process, of trying to proclaim you position, you have put your standing on rocky ground, on the edge of being double minded, and have already contradicted your self?
If you have realized these things and are still willing to debate this, then I am game, So gird up your loins and lets debate, and hopefully it won't get LOCKED.

Start a new thread, Ill be there.

[b]This is a great Site for finding answers to many Questions on JUDAISM

http://www.jewfaq.org/toc.htm

Remember, Christ was a Jew, who followed the Mosaic Law Perfectly, and said " Follow Me. "

Also, he constantly told people, " Keep the Commandments "
so this is a great site to study what Jesus studied. The Orthodoxed version, that is.

The reason I don't let up on the teaching that " We are no longer under the Law "

is because I believe We're repeating the same mistake that Adam and Eve made, by listening to, and following another voice ( Paul ), which caused us to ultimately break, and even forget about G-D's Holy Commandments [/u]. And we were later Punished for it.

The teaching of Paul is a much easier way, that's very appealing to our flesh _ saved by grace and not works.


So Paul would be an excellant place to begin, because you refer to his writtings for most of your beliefs, it seems.

 

Hebrews Ch7 Vrs 12
For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law. 13- For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from wich no man has officiated at the altar. 14-- For it is evident that our Lord arose from Judah, of which tribe Mosses spoke nothing concerning priesthood. 15-- And it is yet far more evident if, in the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another priest.
16--Who has come, Not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life.
17-- For He testifies:
"You are a priest forever, According to the order of Melcheizedek" (Ps.110:4)
18-- For on the one hand there is an Annulling of the former commandment, because of it's weakness and unprofitableness.
19-- For the law made Nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.


2nd Peter Ch3 vrs15
and on account that the longsuffuring of our Lord is salvation-- as also our BELOVED BROTHER PAUL, ACCORDING TO THE WISDOM GIVEN TO HIM, HAS WRITTEN TO YOU, 16--AS ALSO IN ALL HIS EPISTLES, SPEAKING IN THEM OF THESE THINGS, IN WHICH ARE SOME THINGS HARD TO UNDERSTAND, WHICH THOSE WHO ARE UNTAUGHT AND UNSTABLE TWIST TO THIER OWN DESTRUCTION, AS THEY DO ALSO THE REST OF THE SCRIPTURE.

The above in Peter is written by Peter, He was there with Christ, and He agreed with Paul as did John whome Jesus Loved. They all spoke of the New Covenant, as did the Old Testament spoke of it to come. So stopp reading that crap you find on the Net, and read the Word of God, stop being swung everyway the wind blows.
The books of John completly talk of the New Testament that is in effect. As does Peter, Even the book of Acts is based on this, and it was written by Luke.

The Law in which you refer too, which was written on Stone, is now in our hearts, Living through Jesus Christ.
Read Hebrews, They do not know who wrote it, but some speculate Timothy, Barnabas, Paul, Luke Clement of Rome, Apollos, Sivanus, Philip, Priscilla, No one realy knows who wrote it, but it is great.



So in conclusion if we are to deny the Apostilship of Paul, then we have to deny the others, and then we would have to deny Christ, Because they testify of Him.So you may deny them if you wish, that is your choice, but I will stand firm in The Word of God.

It all deals with understanding the Scripture.

I'm disputing the idea that we are no longer to observe G-D's laws; or as Christians often put it: no longer under the law, but under grace, so they end up not having any knowlege of G-D's Commandments, because it's easier to just remember " the Great Commandment ". So, why didn't G-D, save alot of time with Moses on Mt. Siani, and just give him the Great Commandment, instead of the others ??

Paul is extreemly controversial to hang eternal hopes on. John would have been a better choice, except that he says that Jesus is G-D. And that conflicts with Deut. 6.4, Jesus was not praying to himself.

But ultimately, the straw that broke the camel's back for me, was learning about how much paganism exists in Christianity, "learn not the way of the heathen" (Jer. 10.2), for example: virgin birth, baptism, communion, trinity; a Saviour god that became a man through virgin birth, had twelve disciples, was crucified, rose from the dead on the third day and ascended to heaven _ already happened about 600 yrs before Christ. Look up religon of Mithra . I refuse to even try and defend all of that.

The Jews say that there's ALOT of MISTRANSLATIONS in the Christian Bible Old Testament, to make it look like Jesus is fulfilling prophecies from the Old Testament; look up: messiahtruth or jewsforjudaism on search engine.

Also the name Jesus is a greek name; his name was supposed to have been "Immanuel". The Old Testament is all Hebrew and the New Testament is all GREEK. Paul is VERY controversial for not being truthful. To me, that sounds like many red flags from G-D, that Christianity is not right.

So, I feel much safer with the religon that abstains from paganism, and is all Hebrew. It seems to me that, according to Deuteronomy 30: 1-5, and Isaiah 66th chapter, that the Jew's only crime against G-D was breaking his commandments. They repented, he forgave them, restored them as a nation, and now we're somewhere between verse 8 and verse 15 in Isaiah 66.

So now I just want to use what I know, to help everyone I know, to to know the Truth, and work with the Jews, to be on the correct side, and be blessed for helping them Gen. 12:3. I also just feel I need to inform people about the things I've learned, as you've probably noticed.

Yesterday, I spent a couple of hours typing up answeres to your previous questions and for some reason they disappeard, pushed the preview button; but mabe G-D didn't want me to send them. But here are some answers to some of your questions above. I still think your a very nice person; I just don't agree with you on the things I've mentioned.

Sincerely,

greenmachine
