Re: So, you want to know the truth and make sense of GOD?
It is amazing how many times I've pointed out to people that the bible (man's collection of scripture books approved for release) CLEARLY states that the 10 commandment law is dead and gone.....yet people seem to be infatuated with death.....
What is written in clear black and white on the pages of scripture must be paid attention to and lived by. If you refuse to live by the new law, then you will be considered to be LAWLESS (a “man of lawlessness”).
Jesus spoke to the Jews in figures of speech.
Jhn 16:25 "I have said this to you IN FIGURES; the hour is coming when I shall no longer speak to you in figures but tell you plainly of the Father.
Jesus abolished the 10 commandment law (the law of sin)….
Eph 2:15 by abolishing in his flesh the law of commandments and ordinances
2Ti 1:10 our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
If that is not clear enough…(the law of sin caused DEATH)….
Heb 2:14 that through death he might destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil,
Jas 1:25 But he who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer that forgets but a doer that acts, he shall be blessed in his doing.
JAMES 2:12 So speak and so act as those who are to be judged under the law of liberty.
