The question I would like for people here to ask themselves - is this: to all those who oppose the message of Jesus Christ to keep his commandments ( if we love him ) to be holy ( as he says be holy as I am holy ) to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ ( instead of spending all their time arguing over whether obeying God is law or grace ) and to repent of their sins ( because if we repent of our sins he is faithful to forgive us - repentance means to turn away from - to change our mind - head in a new direction ) is this: If you do not want to obey God then why are you a Christian? You see, according to the Word of God when Jesus told his followers what was required, many of them turned back and followed him no more. Because once he gave them the truth it was too much for them. They didn't want to lay down their lives and obey God... So my suggestion is if you don't want to follow him then don't but for the love of God stop trying to prevent those who do wish to know the truth from getting it! Thank you! Please! For the sake of the Gospel I am asking you both to not bring these foolish arguements up any longer. They are wasting valuable time. Thank you. - Jeri
Still not seeing those Holy Spirit attributes.......
His laws as in Christ's, not Moses'. Of which there are 2. And love is the action verb in both. Work is not mentioned. Keep those 2 and you are automatically keeping the others. Do you bear false witness against someone you love? Do you steal from them?
What you don't understand is no one is questioning whether we are or are not suppose to act like Christians, < doing good works. It is why we do them that the issue veers off track for you. No matter how hard you try you will never be holy like Christ is Holy. I know that because in 33 years He never sinned. You sinned yesterday.
Atonement comes through Christ on the cross. Our salvation is the result. We were not holy when that event took place. We were the opposite. We were sinning while He was dying for it. That should make it clear that you and holier you and now holiest you weren't required.
Christ's message was Grace. It is what Chuck teaches. And gently I might add. God has no authority to forgive us. His role is 100% justice for us. Christ received 100% justice and sentence for every sin ever committed. !00%. The punishment for sin is death, so He died. Now God CAN be 100% merciful to our iniquities. Because justice has already been carried out. He doesn't even remember our sins, just His Son and His works:
Hebrews 8:12 For I will be merciful to their iniquities, And their sins will I remember no more.
Either Christ, God and everyone else in the Bible is teaching false doctrine or you are. Do you intend to remind Him of your iniquities so you can get credit for your hard work in overcoming them? (or not)
Teach anything else but Grace through Christ for salvation and your Satan's best friend.
SAMSON Jeri, SAMSON. Unholy as Hell, preferred in Heaven. If God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, tell us, how can we only (thief on the cross) get to heaven again?

So what laws have you decided to devote yourself to and which ones have you discarded, and who said you could discard any of them? Like tithing. Have you stopped stealing from YAH?
