I try not to define God. For me, he is the Creator, but if you wish to call him the Source, that is fine as well. I suspect that the more words we use to define God, the farther away from the truth we move. As my Chinese friends would say, the Tao that can be expressed is not the eternal Tao.
:) What is your idea of a God, God of the tribe of Israel who asked every one of Canaanites to be killed, men, women and children?
"Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the...
Gods 10 commandments are a part of both the old and new covenant. They are Gods eternal laws spoken by God and written with the finger of God on two tables of stone (see Exodus20:1-17; Exodus 31:18). In the new covenant every one of Gods 10 commandments are repeated as the standard of Christian...
We are not under the Mosaic shadow laws of Moses that include circumcision and the shadow laws of atonement that include all the shadow laws of the earthly Sanctuary and the Levitical Priesthood in the new covenant that make up most of the 613 commands of the old testament. These were all shadow...
The argument does not exist. Were you there to hear god speak 3000 yrs ago?
Was the writer of bible there?
Any single religious leader ever to walk? Were any of them there to write what god said?
You are claiming biblical laws of atonement but forgot what jesus 'died on the cross' was...
Already provided you with scripture evidence. You just simply ignored what was shared with you from the scriptures. I posted Genesis 26:5. It was to prove that Abraham had Gods laws and obeyed them including the torah's laws of atonement and that he was a sinner just like me and you and that...
Evidence, not proof of the rules before torah.
Correct, the story lines of bible are not proof.
What about the adultery?
To it?
No god ever said a word, unless you believe pharaoh is god.
Sure the bible, 1000's of years after abraham, put to writing what you say.
No, i said, the story was...

I asked:
Bthoth said:
"Prove that there was a torah during the time of abram 2000 BCE."
Quoting bible is not proof. It's evidence of story telling.
Claiming atonement, is not proving anything except that many in the old days, actually believed that they can be forgiven for committing...
I think you missed the point of why I posted Genesis 26:5. It was to prove that Abraham had Gods laws and obeyed them including the torah's laws of atonement and that he was a sinner just like me and you and that when he sinned he knew how to receive Gods forgiveness of sin (Genesis 22:7-13)...
Are you Jewish? If not, then I would recommend that you just deal with Jesus' Two Commandments as he taught that they are the synthesis of the 613 Commandments.
Your response here.
Thank you but I did not cut and paste the post you are responding to. If you disagree with the post you are responding to please address the post content and the scriptures posted there that might be in disagreement with you and show why you disagree from the scriptures. If...
Nothing from any of your numerous cut and paste quotations - most which you either don't understand or have not tried to understand .. (for example John 3 - Jesus talking about being born again) has Jesus claiming that the "True Israel" are the Gentiles .. So we are left with statement in...
Depends on what you are referring to as Mosaic law. God spoke the 10 commandments alone (Exodus20:1-17) and wrote them on two tables of stone with His own finger (Exodus 32:16). Everyone of them are repeated in the new covenant as the standard of right and wrong, good and evil, sin and...
Irrelevant and as posted to you numerous times in response; we are talking about Gods 10 commandments spoken and written by God alone on two tables of stone (Exodus20:1-17; Exodus 32:16) and repeated in both the old and new covenant scriptures. We are not talking about the ceremonial laws for...
As posted earlier, we are talking about Gods 10 commandments though, spoken and written by God alone on two tables of stone (Exodus20:1-17; Exodus 32:16) and repeated in both the old and new covenant scriptures. We are not talking about the ceremonial laws for animal sacrifices and sin...

Romans 7:14
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
That is Critical and Profound question. In Christendom, Circumcision, Animal Sacrifice and Sin Offerings are Rejected by 2.2 Billion Christians. All the Laws of Moses are Required for Salvation. The Ten...
