Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 30 2009,14:48)Hi KW, There is no culture or relevance of any human division in Jesus. He is not divided.Since I stated what you just did I am assuming you are not disagreeing with me.  Do you agree with my point that The Law of Moses is Jewish culture?That is why James advised Paul to purify himself in Jerusalem.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 30 2009,13:34)Hi CON, Yes we are …but we do not become Jews. There is no longer Jew or gentile…I believe you are misunderstanding what Paul was teaching as I can assure I can be an American by culture and another man can be a German by culture and yet we are both one people in the Anointed One.I should no more…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ Oct. 30 2009,12:07)hi to alllook up galatians 5;16-18 Live by the spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature……….but if you are led by the spirit you are not under the law.also read Gal ;5;26 (fruit of the spirit)It is true that if you live by the Spirit then you will not violate the Law.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 30 2009,08:37)Hi KW, Time might have produced a better response?Like you,  I hope he changed his ways at a later time.  Still we should remember what happened to the people of Israel who God led out of Egypt when they chose to put an idol between God and them.  Many perished!

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 30 2009,08:38)Hi KW, Which conclusions?The ones you based the question I was addressing on. I considered the question ignorant which is why I directed you to look up the scripture I was speaking of. If you choose not to then I do not see how a conversation about it can proceed.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 30 2009,05:20)Hi KW, So which idols do you judge him for?What idol cause him to reject Jesus?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 30 2009,00:28)Hi KW, The rich young man was following the way given to his fathers.Yes but he was offered the new way in Jesus that requires death to self and to ambitions of material glory.He was violating the command not to but any other god's before God and so he was not obeying the Law of Moses though he believed he was.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 29 2009,14:43)Hi KW, Whitewashed tombs full of dead men's bones?I must decrease and he must increase. MY strength shows up best in weak vessels.God's strength does not show up in dishonorable vessels.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 29 2009,14:47)Hi KW, The context of Gal 5 is the relationships between people.You cannot love without a relationship with God.

If I remember correctly Jesus taught that a person's righteousness much exceed that of the Pharisees.  He also taught that the pharisees had an outer righteousness but not an inner one.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 29 2009,12:58)Hi KW, You speak of the second commandment. The first is greater and most sin is against God telling Him he is not God but a trinity is.They are the same commandment as to do one is to do the other which is why in some places in scripture it just states one.Galatians 5:14(KJV) reads:Quote For all the law is…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 29 2009,12:54)Hi KW, God is at work in us to will and to do.Walking is being carried in the current.If you mean that you walk according to the ways of the Spirit through faith then I agree.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 29 2009,12:06)Hi K, That has nothing to do with walking in the Spirit.The Spirit enables righteousness.It is no longer I that liveth but Christ that liveth in meIt literally states it has something to do with walking by the Spirit as you can see from this King James rendition of verse 4.Romans 8:4(KJV) reads:Quote That…[Read more]
