Re: James 1:26
How would we judge the jews and the world if we are not more righteous then them ?
Matthew 19
27Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore? 28And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. 30But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
lets confirm with paul
1 Corinthians 6:2
Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?
I have heard it al before , jesus was not literal deus vult
In fact, the law was given to make sin increase:
This is true it was needed , with the law we would all go to hell all christians break the 10 commandments we would be really screwed without jesus
This is what i get from scripture: if you follow jesus you are saved by him and you will resurrect in the first resurection , if you did not follow jesus and are a deus vulter or broke any other commandments the saints or real christians will judge you with jesus christ
take the rich young guy again
Matthew 19
21Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. 22But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
he walked away and stayed a jew , it is no suprise that those verses came right after the rich young boy
