Guest Butero Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 6 minutes ago, Yowm said: Again, your beef is with the OP, yet you quoted me. I 'rather' affirmed the OP but the OP stated his stance clear enough... "We have people in Christianity today who do the same thing without realizing it... in bringing the Old Testament into the New. The law was to establish the rules and the futility of trying anything but grace to be saved. Reject the grace or try to add to it or take away from it and the law is the only thing left... and none of us can stand up to the law. ← that's the point." Of course he is only saying why the law was given..to show our sin, the laws weakness at bringing about holiness, yet many rest their laurels in the law rather than the grace and loving kindness of our God both true in the New and the Old. Please, next time address the one you have a bone to pick. If you disagree with my stance then bring up specific points. In looking back at this, I can see how addressing you caused confusion, so for that, I apologize. I have heard people teach this type of message where they are acting like a kind of public relations firm for God, trying to defend his actions and explaining them in a way they will be more accepted. Sorry for any confusion I created. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God is love ...as well as just and holy. Do you call that a lie? THIS IS ABSOLUTE TRUTH. so now what we need to know IS HOW THIS GOD WHO IS LOVE Spoke from heaven then through the Son on earth. HOW did GOD always approach the wicked. What was his message through the entire bible. He always warned FIRST . always . The reason, GOD DOES DESIRE NOT A ONE TO PERISH. SO he sent prophets in the old old days . What was their message. DID they preach hey GOD IS LOVE , or did they warn REPENT OR ELSE . SEE that is LOVE. WHY will you DIE o house of ISRAEL. REPENT , REPENT that ye may live . What was JESUS message and how did he react to those who rejected it . WARN warn and by all means healings , compassion too. HOw did the true apostels speak. Even as much as JOHN said GOD IS LOVE , he also warned out against sin and the pattern. He who walks in sin , in darkness KNOWS NOT GOD. Oh he warned . he encouraged , they all did. What was the message to the churches in the book of revelation . REPENT of the evil and keep doing the good you doing . How did paul warn about sin , how did peter , how bout jude , how bout james. WE see the same Spirit in them , that IS GOD. same pattern. SO why on earth now are some, and I aint saying you, but some are saying every time they hear the word repent or any correction , ITS the GOD IS LOVE they say and take that out of text to mean EASE UP and cease the warning . THEY use the term GOD is love in such a way they live evil as heck and have no fear at all in that type of walk. That is dangerous and deadly. Let the warners warn. IF the warners say something that is a LIE , THEN CORRECT THEM. but if they jus warning , we have to let them be . Someone , NOT YOU, but someone told the friend of many letters why you warn all the time . WHY................cause who else IS or will. I mean they come after the veryfew who warn. And the majority just speak of things they ought not . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
