Response to video

Thank you for providing that video. It brings to light a lot I questioned. This satisfies those questions. More than that, a Christian who was in sin began having panic attacks because of those Hebrews verses and chose to leave his faith because he misunderstood them. Now, I can share what I believe will be very encouraging to him. God is so right: "Why do my people die from  lack of knowledge"?

This may have something to do with it. 

Proverbs 29:18 ¹⁸Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.  KJV

[Alive]

Without understanding the Jews of the day; the temple service, the Law of Moses, the old covenant and what it meant to be the heirs of the promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and how important it was to them, as it was an integral part of every facet of their lives. And what Jerusalem meant to them as the very center of life, community and religion--all tied together as Jews. The chosen ones and heirs of promise.

Without understanding these things, it is difficult to understand the book penned to those very Hebrews.

The book appeals to them in light of the old compared to the new. In a nutshell---they well knew the results of rejecting Moses, so the author appeals with logic---how much more important is the new when the old was only a shadow and type of the new and real. The actual and heavenly that the former and earthly only foreshadowed.

I ask you, to read it in that light and pray the Lord will open your eyes to the fact that the former was impermanent and the new is permanent.

Every single Legalist who lives on Christian Forums to try to create doubt, confusion, and Fear, in the heart of Real Born Again Christians, will always use the Book addressed to the HEBREWS, as their "how to lose it" guide.

The post attached to this was far, far too much of an attack to leave up, so I removed it. Please refrain from saying such things going forward.

I stated no names.

I listed no person, or persons.

I listed no denominations.

I only defined the  tactics of a Heretic, as being Satanic, and deceitful,  and described their tactics.

You could have deleted the 30% of your perceived personal (unnamed) attack, and left the teaching, as that was about 70% of the post.

So, I'll remodel it for you, and repost.

It takes me a while to write these Threads and posts, as i dont cut and paste from an online commentary and pretend its mine.

See you later.

Hi, my internet was off for a week so I'm just seeing this.

So glad you enjoyed the video, and that your friend will be helped from it.    Keep us posted.
