    You've already broken them all when you lied to your mother as a kid. And don't say you never did, cuz you will be lying again.

    I also noticed that you TOTALLY SIDE STEPPED the NEW COVENANT. Unable too? If you are not able to respond, maybe this isn't the thread for you.

    Pretending is the right word to describe what they are doing. They say that they observe the feasts because they are part of the Law but all they are doing is pretending because what they are doing is different than what the Law requires. They just hope no one notices. It is exactly what Romans chapter 2 says about those who boast in the Law.

    You're absolutely correct. After this topic of "law keeping" has been discussed over and over through the years that I've been here, all they ever give are excuses as to why they can't keep ALL of laws as they are written. Same excuses now, I'm sure.

    It's fascinating to watch, sad, but fascinating.

    It goes something like this:


    Law (un)Keeper: "You must obey the Law!"

    Born again believer: "Nobody can obey the Law, that's why we need Jesus."

    Law (un)Keeper: "I keep the Law, why don't you?!"

    Born again believer: "Do you ever sin?"

    Law (un)Keeper: "IF I sin, I have Jesus."

    Born again believer: "So, you admit you do sin then."

    Law (un)Keeper: "Why do you hate the Law?!"

    Born again believer: "So you admit you don't keep the Law then because you sin."

    Law (un)Keeper: "I keep the Law, why don't you?!"



    And on and on and on it goes. Absolutely no common sense whatsoever. The sheer amount of hypocrisy would be laughable if it weren't so sad.

    But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. ~ Matthew 23:13

    Maybe you missed my recent post on the subject....maybe a page back? So which applicable commands do you find you are unable to keep

    You're right. It's sad. They can't commit fully to the law of the OT, and can't fully commit to the law of Christ, so they're lukewarm at best.

    So why try, pastor guest? Still don't understand the charge of hypocrisy for simply trying to encourage people to keep God's commandments.

    Here's a really BIG box of tissue, and room is being saved for you in the safe space in the Root Cellar.

    And BTW the OLD Covenant, and the NEW Covenant are different, with different laws, what is there about that you don't understand? It specifically says so. Reading comprehension acting up again? All of which I quoted STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BIBLE, NOTHING MADE UP.
