    WHERE IS THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS GOD'S 4th COMMANDMENT IS ABOLISHED?

    All I am seeing in your posts are empty words and accusations you are unable to prove with scripture while being unwilling to respond to the posts and all the scriptures that are in disagreement with your teachings of lawlessness in post # 1558 linked; and post # 1559 linked. This makes the...

    WHERE IS THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS GOD'S 4th COMMANDMENT IS ABOLISHED?

    This is all sophistry. Having a knowledge of sin is not the same as living under the Old Covenant. If Abraham obeyed God before the torah was given, that proves nothing. John 1:17 clearly states "For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came about through Jesus Christ."...

    What does God want from you?

    Question: How does mercy help unless you are condemning??? Condemning, a petty thing mankind holds so dear, isn't God supposed to be above such petty things? Condemning is the real problem. I do not understand this grace, this kindness and special favors God is supposed to be giving. This...

    What does God want from you?

    No, that is NOT what I said. The Messengers educate mankind and prepare them for life in the spiritual world. They are not crutches, they are guides. Don't you know the 'difference' between a crutch and a guide? "The Prophets and Messengers of God have been sent down for the sole purpose of...

    Challenge for those that believe in billions of years for the age of things. Give anything that is more than 6000 years old. NO ASSUMPTIONS ALLOWED.

    Jesus, however, said that every jot and tittle of OT law still applies till heaven and earth pass when all is fulfilled (Matt 5:17-19), including the commandments to abort the pregnancies of adulteresses (Lev 20:10 Numbers 5:20-28).

    Pharaoh was god 3500 yrs ago. Moses lived in his home, per bible/torah. Evidence of an evolution (the process here in nature by man) Yes, many make the same mistake (s)..... even in the current generations. No sacrifice takes away or undoes sins. Keeping the the rules of personal...

    The oldest part of the Bible is maybe 2,800 years ago. Where do you get that 3,500 year claim from?

    Challenge for those that believe in billions of years for the age of things. Give anything that is more than 6000 years old. NO ASSUMPTIONS ALLOWED.

    It is true that the Bible is written about 3500 to 2000 years ago by about 40 authors inspired by God. And these are in essence a rollout of new information with each book. Many Christians make the mistake of not taking that into account when studying scripture and determining doctrine. And yes...

    Denial by non-Muslims of the Qur'an's commands to commit violence.

    Holy Spirit is good , and his sword is good. The crucial thing is that you use the sword as weapon to attach it to the Holy Spirit.It has a different meaning when you use it with the Holy Spirit , it is different from how you define it. You can look at the many verses that i showed you , how...

    JESUS, God, the Ordinal First and Last

    101G is ignoring the entire chapter 12 of Zechariah, closing his eyes to what it says. Then 101G takes Zechariah 12:10 splits it into two peices, and still has to ignore the last half of it. :rolleyes: Grace? Not for Jews. Truth? Nah. No, Jesus is not the LORD as described in Zechariah...

    JESUS, God, the Ordinal First and Last

    let's get it right. 101G said, Zechariah 12:10 describe both the passion of Christ/God in flesh, the Lord Jesus, the Ordinals Last, on the Cross as to who was pierced, and that God poured out his Spirit on the day of Pentecost, the Spirit of grace and of supplications. Now, dybmh. since you...

    Evidence

    There is a big difference between being 'given through' Moses and 'written by' Moses. Moses did not actually write the OT the way Baha'u'llah wrote His own scriptures. Below are some Baha'i views of the Bible: Introduction Although Bahá'ís universally share a great respect for the Bible...

    Evidence

    From The Baháʼí Faith - Home .... "The law was given through Moses” (John 1:17). So the "law" as set out in the OT was not the word of God? Despite having been given through a Messenger?

    The Lords Prayer - ‘Thine is the Kingdom…’

    Hmmm… ‘We have but one God: The Father, and One Lord: Jesus Christ’ and Jesus is the mediator between God:The Father, and mankind. But you are saying that the mediator between GOD and Man is GOD, Himself? I thought Jesus BECAME the mediator because he is the grace given by God! ((God gave us...

    The Lords Prayer - ‘Thine is the Kingdom…’

    Here is what it says in 1 Corinthians 1:2-4: 'Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and our's: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our...

    Adamic sin ( imperfection in us passed down to us from fallen father Adam ) we can't stop inherited Adamic sin. If we, although being imperfect, 'intentionally' do wrong that is the greater sin. Kind of like: Is there a 'white lie' (?) No because sin is on purpose or not, willful or...

    Genesis 1:26 and the Trinity

    17 “The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son, who is close to the Father’s heart, who has made him known.” (NRSV) Go back to the creation myths in Genesis. Jesus Does. Not. Appear. In. Them. I believe...

    Genesis 1:26 and the Trinity

    John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. Clearly stated.. The...

    In accordance with the scriptures?????

    The coming of Jesus was, as John's Gospel tells us, the coming of 'the true Light' [John 1:9]. The Lord enlightens the understanding 'For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ' [John 1:17]. What did Jesus have to say about his own resurrection? He said [Matthew...

    Question for Christians: Salvation for uncontacted tribes?

    Maybe Jesus didn't have to be in heaven to offer heaven to others? Phoned God to tell him to let them in? (Maybe a 5g network.....5 god?)
