Hi,
The Teachings of Paul and the apostles show the neophytes how to live out their new life in the Spirit on earth as servants of the Most High God. Rebirth only establishes one in the kingdom and the godly ways must be learned. Righteus behaviours without being established in Christ through the gospels are a form of self deception.SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM…

Just as I thought, no understanding at all of what the church (ecclesia) are.Blessings.
You didn't answer the question!Hi,
So Jesus spent time teaching the Jews
Matthew 9:35
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.NIck, no offence, but I'm begining to doubt your sanity. You never answer questions when asked, you never quote scripture about a post you made if asked. You change the subject if proved wrong by scripture, I feel like i'm on a merry-go-round when trying to communicate with you.
Blessings.
Hi CO,
Again you seem to confuse teaching with preaching.
Jesus indeed taught much about the Law to the Jews in response to their questions.eg Mt19 where he was asked by the richg young man about what he could DO [works=law]to INHERIT eternal life
16And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I DO, that I may have eternal life?
17And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
18He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
19Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
20The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?
But at the persistent questioning he offered him entrance into the kingdom.
This is not of works but trust in the works of Jesus.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.
23Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
HI,
Some still want to turn the teachings of Paul into a new gospel.
We should not abuse scripture in this way.Hi,
Jesus taught about the Law to those who asked.
He taught about and preached the kingdom of God.
None could be reborn till his death and resurrection.Paul preached to the heathen in Acts and helped men enter the kingdom.
He taught about the kingdom in his letters to the saved.
He showed the Jewish converts how the Law was no longer their master.Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 03 2009,06:08) Hi,

Nick……….The Law (ten commandments) has never been done away with Paul never said it was. LAW (forced compliance) has be done away , replaces by a new and living way. Nick Check out the GREEK and see where the definite article is (NOT) there at time where Paul was referring to the way Law works, verses the subject of (the) Law were the definite article is there. Check it out brother.love and peace to you and yours……………………….gene
G,
Where is this forced compliance spoken of in scripture with regard to the OT or is it your own addition?
By making us as robots you would make such forced compliance of the New covenant as well.
God calls all men to repentance and all must walk in grace.
Many are called but few are chosen.Nick……….All law is (enforced) or it just not a Law, Just go to Ex 20:20 and think about it. Moses plainly said GOD was Using FEAR of Him in order that they sin Not. When the Ten commandments were codified they became enforced or a LAW , there were consequences when a person did not obey them , even Killing a man who was gathering wood on the sabbath. Force Compliance was what made it Law, as all laws are , they are enforced rules and regulations, to control peoples behaviors, But they can never make a person right inside, thats why Paul said a person is not Justified by obedience to Law, Because (forced compliance) to a set of rules does not change you heart , that takes the Spirit of GOD to Do. This is simple to understand Nick. IMO
love to you and yours…………………….gene
G,
Even obeying all the external regulations never changed the heart of a man.
But God spoke through the Law and the prophets and they revealed Jesus.
The evidence that man has the law in his heart is the words of his mouth.Salt water does not come with sweet
Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 30 2008,15:18) Hi CO,
The commision of Jesus to the Jews has no bearing on the eternal gospel.
It is the same gospel whether to Jew or gentile.
NH.
No bearing on the “eternal gospel”? Can't find any “eternal gospel in my bible? PERHAPS YOU COULD GIVE US A SCRIPTURE THAT EXPLAINS YOUR 'ETERNAL GOSPEL'?Hi T,
CO is deceived into thinking that all are saved and so the gospel of salvation in Jesus has become anathema to him.hi nick
I am not sure of what you are saying but it at occured to me that most of all the people ever lived may be saved ,there are a few understandings for that idea,and very few will be cast in the lake of fire when i say few it is compaired to the ones who are saved.
Because our heavenly father is a God of love but he will not leave the transgressions unpunished.
so to avoided to be punish for our past sins we must stay in Christ love and faith.
