Is English your first language? I ask in love, as sometimes people can sound harsh and angry due to misunderstanding of the subtleties of a language being used. ...is not 'my cup of tea'. It's not the kind of conversation I'm after really. So let's end the conversation here so that you can employ the excellencies of subtlety with someone smarter than me, because I am rather simple!

Hmm. The Galations perverted the Gospel Of Grace. Paul called them out and said they were fools.Legalists that come in here and cause Believers to “ fall from Grace” and have them “ severed from the Cross Of Christ” without these poorly taught individuals even knowing the precarious shape they are putting themselves in should expect no less.The Legalists in here actually get by pretty easier compared to what Paul would have told them. I have never called them Fools. Jesus called some people “ Vipers”. What a “ rude attitude !” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Matthew 5:19 was true for that time as Jesus had not been crucified. " OOPS! ALL Jesus' pre-crucifixion teachings apply to ALL disciples of ALL nations (given Mt. 28:19-20). That's why Mt. 5:19 applies to you. "Mark 11:17 speaks about prayer, not a sacrifice." Mk. 11:17 quotes Is. 56:7 which (IN CONTEXT!) confirms that Jesus expects associated SACRIFICES! Let's be careful to understand the CONTEXT of the passages our Messiah cites. "You are reading into scripture what is not there. " Actually, I simply noted that Is. 56:7 (quoted and DESIRED by Jesus!) requires sacrifices. "When did Jesus become the refiners fire while ministering? That is when He returns for the second time." Right! Mal. 3:4 is YET FUTURE....thus the restoration (by Jesus) of Levitical/ceremonial/sacrificial Torah activities are YET FUTURE. You're right! "Again, this is futuristic and to the Jewish nation only." There is no "Jewish nation".... Rather, there is ALL ISRAEL. And YOU are not excluded from Israel (Eph.2:12). Believing Gentiles ARE the Israelites of Hos. 1 (citing Hos. 1 at Rom.9:24-26). Christians partake in the New Covenant with ISRAEL (Jer.31:31;Heb.8:8), thus proving that all Christians are ISRAELITES. CONCLUSION: The future of ISRAEL is YOUR future! It's MY future! It's OUR future! And a GREAT future indeed.... "Let's not read into scripture what is not there, nor twist scripture by taking it out of context only to try and apply it for today." Good point! That's why Mal.3:4 (and the associated Levitical animal sacrificial activity) is surely yet FUTURE. And that's why we do NOT ignore the context of Is. 56:7 (quoted at Mk.11:17) which proves Jesus desires SACRIFICES for people of all nations. blessings... The only sacrifice we need to do today is found in Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rom. 12:1-2 does not say "THE ONLY"....you just made that up! Paul condoned sacrifices (Ac.21); IMITATE Paul (1Cor.11:1;Php.4:9). THOUSANDS of 1st-century Christians condoned ALL sacrifices (Ac. 21:20). Some Christians were even animal-sacrificing priests! (Ac.6:7). Jesus requires sacrifices for people of all nations (Mt. 11:17 citing Is.56:7)...STOP opposing what Jesus requires....thanks! Jesus comes to RESTORE the sacrifices (Mal.3:4)....let's not oppose what Jesus comes to RESTORE. Sacrifices are an ONGOING shadow (the shadow in used in PRESENT TENSE, not PAST TENSE, Col. 2:17;Heb.10:1). Sacrifices WILL RETURN (Dt. 30:1-8;Eze.40-47;Jer.33;Is.66;Zec.14). Now of course, while in this present diaspora, we are generally unable to obey Levitical/ceremonial/sacrificial Torah portions..... But this will change when we again return to inherit the land promised to us (Mt.5:5;Eph.3:6;Gal.3:29) in 100% obedience to ALL Torah (Dt.30:1-8). Exciting things in our future, for sure! blessings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either you live by the law or by grace, there is no dual commitment here. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I actually choose to do something CRAZY! I choose to BELIEVE JESUS' WORDS!" "Oh how wonderful am I"? Your lack of humility is stunning. You know passion alone, knowledge alone, being right alone, and doing them all diligently and even perfectly, having a mastery over the Scriptures---none of those things will bring you or those you believe you want to convince any closer to the kingdom of God. Your grandiose approaches---which they are---do nothing to draw a single person to Christ. You are unrelatable. You will fight and argue and demand your point is right. To what avail? It is empty without genuine love for those you speak to. You craft your words without affection or concern---only to declare another piece of Scripture and how correct you are! I will leave you with this one verse, and after this, I will leave you and your responses to others to fight with. This is a never-ending butchery and division of Christian love. Like little birds picking and pecking at one another, you continue to fuel the fire. Instead of drawing people to Christ, you are pushing people away. Your kind words hide behind friendliness---without friendship. 1 Corinthians 13:2 (NIV) 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
