In other words, you pick and chose which ones you try and keep and which ones you dismiss as not applying to you.

In other words, no your assumption is wrong.

So is it ok to ignore the law and commit adultery, and kill and steal.

Of course that is what he was saying Hobie :sarc: , if that is how you interpret words and intentions, please do not try to tell others what the Bible means to say.

I think you missed his sarcasm.

I said SDA's because I meant SDA's.  I realize there are other denominations that teach Sabbath-keeping besides SDA's, but most of them are not as ardently militant about spreading their false doctrine to other Christians in an attempt to con them into joining them in their error.

When you use the word, "applicable," yes, you are picking and choosing which commandments you obey and which you dismiss.  When you chain yourself to the Law, you get all the commandments, not just 10, at no extra cost to you.  There isn't even a separate shipping fee.  You get the matching set of all 613 of them, and if you are not keeping all of them, then you are not keeping any of them.

Every Sabbath denier I see, only says "SDA". But I see your point, thanks for clearing it.

Applicable. For example: law which requires the tabernacle, is not applicable, as there is no tabernacle. Laws which were given to Jews, are not applicable to gentiles.

It wasn't sarcasm.  Hobie is a long-time poster at Grace-Centered Forum and he meant what he said exactly as written.

Looks like sarcasm. I don't think Hobie is actually going to kill, steal, and commit adultery.

Or maybe he is, let's hope not.

No, I did not, not at all, but the point is made, that he is misrepresenting what was intended, as a means to make him appear inconsistent or hypocritical, or selective. You do not (generally) attack a person's position, by refuting points he is not making.

Odd, since the Sabbath was a law given only to the Jews, and no one else.  And yet you are telling us we need to keep the Sabbath in a way that was never dictated to the Church.

When you attach yourself to the law by saying you have to attend church on a certain day, you get the whole law.  You don't get any options.  Why do you think God allowed the 2nd Temple to be destroyed?  Perhaps as a firm assertion that we were now to rely on Jesus' finished work on the Cross instead of our own works?  You are saying we have to "keep" the Sabbath.  When you do that, you don't get the option of saying "Well, there is no Temple now, so I don't have to do that whole pesky sacrifice thing."  Yes you do.  Of course, you can't, physically, so you can't actually keep the Sabbath that way, and no one else can either so the day is pointless, no matter which day you pick.  No one who claims to be "keeping" the Sabbath in that way is actually doing so.

You are telling everyone they have to keep the Sabbath, so explain to us how you do so, according to biblical dictates.

Genesis 2:3

"Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made."

In Genesis 2:3, there were no Jews. Also at no point in scripture, did God un-sanctify or un-bless the 7th day. 

Aside from that, Jesus taught how to keep the Sabbath. Not how to get rid of it. If you say he taught the Sabbath because they were Jews, you make all other commandments invalid, as they were also only given to Jews.

When I say keep the Sabbath, I say keep it how Jesus taught to keep it.

How he perfected the Sabbath, and taught "Sabbath was made for man". Not, "Sabbath was made for Jew".

Saying you don't need to follow any rules, and you can run around and live however you want, is part of the OSAS doctrine.

Please, who will think like this is a carnal minded person. We all know what we should do and not, if His Spirit is in us then we will not desire to follow the evil desires of the flesh (and we shouldn't).

"For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh,
but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit." - Romans 8:5

"For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live." - Romans 8:13

Do you do what Jesus says? What did Jesus say: "If ye love me, keep my commandments."

Don't you think there is some lack of logic there?! Why would Jesus come, fulfill the law, give His life and say to you: "Now, if you want to enter life keep the law you already failed to keep".

Yes, we already failed... And if anyone seek to be justified by deeds of the law he must never fail, never.

"Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin." - Romans 3:20

 

The Lord Jesus came to fulfill it and to shed His blood for all of us, so we could live under a new covenant - under His grace.

"And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, Receive the Holy Spirit." - John 20:22

"Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God, 
who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life." - 2 Corinthians 3:5-6

 

And it is through faith in Him that we are saved. Follow the Lord Jesus!

"that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit." - Romans 8:4

"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;
neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand." - John 10:27-28

 

God bless you!

If the Sabbath, the seventh day was so important to Jesus, why did He first appear to His disciples on the first day of the week, Sunday.

 

John 20:19, Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

And the Holy Ghost descended upon the people  on Pentecost, a Sunday.

Acts 2:1-4, v.1, And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
    2, And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
    3, And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
    4, And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

"You shall also count for yourselves from the day after the sabbath, from the day when you brought in the sheaf of the wave offering; there shall be seven complete sabbaths. You shall count fifty days to the day after the seventh sabbath; then you shall present a new grain offering to the Lord. " (Leviticus 23:15-16).

Colossians 2:13-17. v.13, And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
    14, Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
    15, And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
    16, ¶ Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
    17, Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

I don't follow the law to be justified.

You're misusing that quote. It's regarding those who seek to be justified by law, instead of righteousness from God through Jesus.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
