That is exactly my point.... and Being Christ our Holiness why go back to the law for anything?

To boast. Or avoid persecution for the cross of Christ.

 

So then again,  is that why you would go back to the law when no one else has, 

or are you making more false accusations by implication ?

When did I bare false witness?

Go back over the posts over the last 2 hours - it was pointed out 3 or 4 times now.  (or at least twice) plainly.

Christ quotes the Mosaic Law in

Mark 7:6-13 - the 5h Commandment as "Moses said" and as "Word of God" and as "Commandment of God"

When NT writers quote Moses - they say things like "The Holy Spirit said" because "All Scripture is given by inspiration from God AND is to be used for doctrine" 2 Tim 3:16

So then back to Mark 7 - Christ's teaching starts with "in vain do they worship Me teaching for doctrine the commandments of men..." - pretty interesting instruction Christ gives there on the subject of what we eat and which part of the OT to ignore.

and in Matt 22

Deut 6:5 - "Love God with all your heart"

Lev 19:18 "Love your neighbor as yourself"

What is more there is 1050 New Testament commands.

https://www.cai.org/bible-studies/1050-new-testament-commands

-- At what point do we tell God "you have too many commands"??? What is His 'limit'?

 

I didn't go to the link you provided because I have no interest in reading what the CAI Pentacostolist sect offers,sorry     enoob asked a very simple question earlier "What was the Law given for?" was it for Salvation or for condemnation? I noticed you did not reply ......Putting the cart before the horse never gets you very far,as Christians the first thing we do is come to the Understanding of WHO we are in Christ,His Finished Work on the cross that has afforded us a Life More Abundant in which we are FREE Indeed......The Law was made to show Gods Chosen People that it could not be followed by man,man could not Reconcile Himself back to God & they had the Promise of the Seed yet to come and there would be no more daily sacrifice when the Messiah came  Men like Abraham were counted Righteous for their Faith in Jesus,they Believed Gods Word that their Redeemer was coming    The Law Mosaic Law was for Israel ,the Old Covenant was the Covenant between them & God    We were not,are not & never will be under that Covenant & the Mosaic Law was not for us.....so how does Leviticus apply to you,me or any Christian?

   Of course Jesus quoted what was written,He came FIRST for the Jew and we must Understand Who is speaking to who when reading the Scriptures & why,for a specific people in a specific time & for a specific reason.....Do we not learn from others experiences,from their mistakes?(hopefully)    Every Word that is Written does not apply to you & I .....how can I fall back on the Law (as in the 6th Chapter of Hebrews) when I was never under the Law in the first place ,so that does not pertain to me but I certainly can learn from it    

   Anyway,this Thread is about eating pork,as RG mentioned,70 odd pages about whether or not you can eat pork & a 3 yr old Thread   We don't have dietary laws but if you want to know what James suggested to make it simple for the Gentiles(us) ...He suggested four rules in Acts 15th Chapter,those Christians were just as confused then as in this Thread     So,back to enoobs question,Why was the Law given?               God Bless<Kwik

It is posted in the open forum , in this thread , and you did not deny it or change your posts .

If you don't want to change your posts,  there's nothing more to do - I'm not going to continue addressing your false witness if you can't even read the posts you posted yourself and the replies to them that followed immediately.... even if you are on a phone that makes it more difficult to go back and read your own posts,  it is still your responsibility , not mine,  to correct your own errors (no one else can correct your own errors) ..

I didn't error. Sorry you feel that way.

In the content of a few of your posts,  as was pointed out immediately after you posted,

you not only errored,  but commited false testimony about others.

Your posts were copied (and quoted, along with pointing out your false witness) so there is a permanent record of your false testimony, still currently in place in this thread,  and if you correct it in the future,  that will be noted as well.
