1 John 5:3 Why Are YASHUA ANOINTED'S Commandments Not Grievous?
1 John 5:3 (KJV) For this is The Love of God, that we keep His commandments: and HIS commandments are not grievous. (Emphasis mine)
OK, so how does this work and I ask this question, because elsewhere Yashua Anointed says, through Paul, and I quote:
Col 2:14 (KJV) Blotting out The Handwriting of Ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to His cross.
Eph 2:15-16 (KJV) Having abolished in His Flesh the enmity (of) The Law of Commandments in Ordinances; for to make in Himself of twain (the two) one new man, so making peace; 16 And that He might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: (Brackets mine)
Now is something that is against us, grievous? Yes, you bet your life it is. Furthermore, is something that is enmity also against us and grievous to us too? Yes, of course, and even more so and from Dictionary.com we get this definition:
Enmity – a feeling or condition of hostility; hatred; ill will; animosity; antagonism.
And from the Greek MSS transliteral and Strong’s:
Enmity – G2189 – echthra – ekh’-thrah – feminine of G2190; hostility; by implication a reason for opposition: – enmity, hatred.
As we can see the meaning of the word ‘enmity’ has not changed in 2,000 years. Moreover, how grievous and against us is that? What was it that WAS so full of ill will, animosity, hostility, antagonism and hate toward us i.e. totally grievous? Why, The Whole Law. But why was The Whole Law so so full of ill will, animosity, hostility, antagonism and hate toward us and against us and thereby grievous? Because it condemned us due to our sinful natures, and still does condemn us if we stupidly CHOOSE to live under it. It finds us guilty as charged, EVERYTIME, with no escape from the penalty of condemnation, other than through repeated animal sacrifices and scape goats to alleviate this dreadful condition and situation. Added to which, these were only ever temporary or shadow sacrifices with no real substance. Sin again, and yet more animals had to be sacrificed i.e. repetitive confession of sins. This was not only grievous, but a wretched and tiresome condition to be in.
However, there is another side to this and we need to be clear on the whole issue. Those of the satanic Cainite-Judeo-Christian Religion continue with the same meaningless ritual, even today, with their repetitive confession of sins. OK, they don’t sacrifice animals, but they get down on their feeble knees and perpetuate the same blasphemous repetitive ritual, so the same Old Covenant spirit pervades. This, dear people, is Old Covenant behaviour, active and operational, in the New Covenant age of Grace and total forgiveness.
Right, so we can now see why The Whole Law or The Commandments ARE grievous due to man’s fallen condition and yet John says Yashua Anointed’s Commandments are NOT grievous, why and how is that? Is this a contradiction we’re looking at? No way, because HIS Commandments are very different in two ways:
First, they are no longer binding as Laws to be obeyed, due to them now being written on our hearts. Circumcision is of now of the heart, not of the flesh – internal, and not external – inward, and not outward. What does this mean? Does it mean we now sin to our heart’s content, because there is no longer any condemnation under The Law? Nay, God forbid, for He will forbid, even to the taking our lives if we persist stubbornly in sinful foolishness as He did with Ananias and Sapphira. So what are you saying, I hear you say? I am saying that if we die with Yashua Anointed in the Baptismal pool and are Born of God (Born Again) we will have a INNER DESIRE NOT TO SIN, due to the circumcision of our hearts. If, on the other hand, YOU do not have this inner desire not to sin, then you are NONE OF HIS and are reprobate in your thinking. Not only that, but if you profess to be a follower of Yashua Anointed and do not have an inner desire not to sin then you are worse than the lost and unsaved. You are more evil and wretched than they are.
Second, they are the same commandments as the old commandments and yet new at the same time hence John also said this:
1 John 2:7 (KJV) Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is The Word which ye have heard from the beginning.
Now what is this Word that we and they had heard from the beginning? Right here:
Exodus 20:6 (KJV) And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and ‘keep’ my commandments.
Notice and notice it well, the crucial Word is LOVE – period. Those that LOVE Yashua Anointed i.e. displaying the first of the Fruits of The Holy Spirit are keeping The Commandments. So if we love God are we going to keep His Commandments voluntarily or do we still need the school teacher (The Law) standing over us like a little infant school child?
Moreover, let’s write HIS Commandments so that we can confound the literal Ten Commandment Keepers who are attempting to earn their salvation by obedience and works under The Law.
Matthew 22:36 (KJV) Master, which is the great commandment in The Law?
Notice the satanic loaded question asked by an evil creature of The Law when he said: “Which is the great commandment IN THE LAW?”
Notice Yashua Anointed’s reply:
Matthew 22:38 (KJV) This is the first and great commandment.
The first and great commandment BUT NOT IN THE LAW. So if it was not in The Law what was it in? Answer: in LOVE – in The Spirit and from the heart.
Yashua Anointed then states clearly what HIS commandments are:
Matthew 22:37-39 (KJV) Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt LOVE The Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour as thyself.
If we then add in this verse for good measure:
Rom 13:8 (KJV) Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled The Law.
He that loveth another hath fulfilled The Law. What does that mean? Easy, if The Law is fulfilled it is no longer over us like Damocles’ Sword.
Now we can plainly see why HIS Commandments are not grievous and I hope for your own sake that you can, too, for if you cannot then 1,000 years of outer darkness awaits you in the resurrection. You have now had your warning in LOVE.

Do you currently eat unclean meats?
Where are you getting your interpretations? What website?
I don’t get interpretations – it’s only the creatures of the Cainite-Judeo-Christian religion with their know nothing Bible intellectuals and theologians that get interpretations.
The Truth is not an interpretation.
And why do you keep asking irrelevant questions about food?
We are told not to eat unclean food. Do we still keep this statute or not?
We don’t keep any statutes. The Whole Law was nailed to the cross.
Are you sacrificiing animals, for that, too, is a statute as is circumcision?
Read this and let it sink in!
James 2:10 (KJV) For whosoever shall keep The Whole Law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
If you fail in one tiny point of keeping The Whole Law, you fail in keeping it all.
You said everyday is the Sabbath. Why do you still keep it then everyday? Are we more guilty now?
Second Peter said he never ate anything unclean and this was decades after Jesus death. God said what he made clean Peter must not make unclean. But God was referring to Gentiles, not to the unclean meats.
How do we interpret this?
@ MSG
I didn’t say everyday is THE Sabbath day, I said everyday is A Sabbath day i.e. a day of Rest because we have entered into His Sabbath Rest – an eternal Sabbath Rest.
I can now rest on any day of the week for there is NO LAW TELLING me what I MUST DO and thereby condemning me if I fail to keep it i.e. Sunset Friday to Sunset Saturday. The Sabbath was ALWAYS MADE FOR MAN, not man made for The Sabbath.
You have not read the story of the vision Peter had re the sheet from heaven with all the creatures in it. Read ALL the story.
Yes, this is what Peter interpreted the vision to be:
“But God has shown me that I must not call any person common or unclean.”
It was not that he made unclean food clean since God does not change. It was about associating with what Jews considered unclean people.
@ MSG
Act 10:11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
Act 10:12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
Act 10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
Your selective cherry picking of The Holy Scriptures is the usual work of those deceived or, worse, a deceiver himself.
I will tell you again through James:
James 2:10 (KJV) For whosoever shall keep The Whole Law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
If you’re saying the dietary laws are still binding then so are ALL the other Laws i.e. animal sacrifices, circumcision and the non-wearing of mixed cloths.
IF YOU FAIL in keeping any of these things you fail in keeping The Whole Law and you are then reprobate.
Salvation is through His Grace and His Faith alone.
OK, I see you are stuck on that. But the meats are still unclean. However, one guy stated that it was used to SIGNIFY A SEPARATION between God’s people and the Gentiles. They were always to be separated from the “world” and one thing was not to eat what Gentile eat.
Today, since Christ died it does not take on that significant anymore, ie., not to be used as “separation identity” since Christ is now the reality.
That said you still do not eat unclean meats but just you no longer use it to say it is justification to keep separate, consecrated or “holy” like.
Do you think you could use that in your new found religion?
@ MSG
Ha ha that is hilarious, I AM STUCK????????
“OK, I see you are stuck on that.”
There’s only one of here that is stuck!!! And this is even more hilarious when I have quoted The Lord’s words to Peter:
Act 10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
And then you come up with this gem:
“But the meats are still unclean.”
I mean is black now white in your skewed world?
Act 10:15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
WHAT GOD HATH CLEANSED.
Are you a man that limits God?
Are you a man that keeps ALL THE LAW?
You’re the man with a religion and meaningless traditions not me – I HAVE NO RELIGION.
No matter how you look at it I cannot see your answer is correct. It is in an unsatisfactory answer for this matter. Peter’s vision was clearly not about EATING unclean meats it was about Gentiles being CLEAN now.
We still do not eat unclean meats, but for a different reason now. It is not sin if we do eat it, but we still “keep” this commandment. You are simply misinterpreting your “work in progress”.
@ MSG
Well clearly you are now trying to tell me that black is white and I will quote the Scripture again until it sinks into your brain:
Act 10:13 And there came a voice to him, RISE, PETER; KILL AND EAT.
James 2:10 (KJV) For whosoever shall keep The Whole Law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
You also continue in failing to see the point of what James is saying in that ALL THE LAW must be kept, not just the dietary laws if you take the path of being obedient to The Law and that includes animal sacrifices and circumcision.
You said:
“We still do not eat unclean meats, but for a different reason now. It is not sin if we do eat it, but we still “keep” this commandment. You are simply misinterpreting your “work in progress”.”
This is just erroneous agenda based spin and perversion of what is written. Peter was instructed by The Lord to eat all the creatures on the sheet and that none of them are now unclean.
Act 10:15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common (contaminated).
What God hath cleansed is cleansed. All YOU have to do is take it on board and accept it instead of stubbornly kicking against the pricks.
You told me to read the WHOLE story. Seems you don’t take your own advice.
Peter clearly said what that vision meant. He did not say God told him the meat was now clean he understood it to mean to GENTILES. Read the WHOLE STORY.
17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, ….
Then Peter said this: “But God has shown me that I must not call any person common or unclean.”
So God is the same today and yesterday, He never changes. So he would not now declare what is unclean clean again. It was not food but Gentiles he made clean. An unclean food will always remain unclean. God does not change his mind and say it OK now. You are misinterpreting this part.
Is your religion not to have a religion? See, unclean food is always unclean, bug God gives grace to humans by making then unclean now.
See how gracious God is to humans and not to food which you seem obsessed with eating bacon and lobster again after God’s saving grace?
No wonder it’s not a religion to you, it’s about your bacon you want for breakfast. Followed by lobster for dinner.
You ask if I keep all the law? YES I do. Remember now, you said “KEEP”.
There is only ONE here who does NOT take my advice and that is YOU.
I’ll re-post the verse for it is very short and SIMPLE to read and understand:
Act 10:13 And there came a voice to him, RISE, PETER; KILL AND EAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now try doing some thinking instead of being blindly led by your Judaisers agenda.
This whole episode was to teach Peter to stop behaving like a Judaiser because Cornelius was a gentile and there was no way The Lord was going to allow Peter to force the Judaic Dietary Laws on this man.
God does not change but the things God does DO CHANGE and at different times He does things ANEW:
John 13:34 (KJV) A NEW commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
Mark 1:27 (KJV) And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what NEW doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth He even the unclean spirits, and they do obey Him.
Mark 14:24 (KJV) And He said unto them, This is my blood of the NEW (Covenant) Testament, which is shed for many.
Your problem is that you’re bogged down in THE OLD – in BONDAGE.
Following Yashua Anointed i.e. The WAY is NOT RELIGION. There is NO SALVATION in religion so repent of your useless religion. All religions are The Devil’s work which includes the Cainite-Judeo-Christian Religion.
Again, you must admit it was not about eating unclean meats. God would never say it is OK now to eat unclean meats when He called that an abomination. Again, it is about Gentiles being made clean and God used unclean meats to Peter to show him the clear meaning. You are just positively WRONG here.
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven” (Matt. 5:17-19).
Do we keep the laws? You decide!
Matt 19:17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? [there is] none good but one, [that is], God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
1Cor 7:19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
1Kgs 8:58 That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.
Can the Law save us or make us perfect? You decide!
Jas 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one [point], he is guilty of all.
We need Yashua more than ever. And God did!
I’m not wasting any more of my precious time on you. If want to to keep the law, and kill His Grace, go right ahead and see where it gets you!!

Rom 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
You have no understanding of what it means to be under His Grace.
You have no understanding of what it means to be Born of God.
You have no understanding of what it means to be Spirit led.
YOU, like many more here on BIN, are SPIRITUALLY DEAD.
If it were not for the law there would be no need of grace.
Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law [is] holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
But does it save?
Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:
Thanks for confirming that obedience to The Law does not save you, so why are you attempting to keep it with not eating certain foods?
Show me how obeying The Law saves YOU.
What happens when YOU fail to keep ALL The Law?
James 2:10 (KJV) For whosoever shall keep The Whole Law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
If you’re not sacrificing animals then YOU are breaking The Law and offend in one point, at least, so you are guilty of breaking ALL THE LAW.
Yes, you are guilty of sin. That is why we have grace. What’s the big deal here?
John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
You missed this at the other site.
And how do we know we are loving them? By KEEPING the COMMANDMENTS.
Otherwise we would the things like you below.
Ex. 1. We don’t say, I love you friend so much let me have sex with your wife, please?
Ex. 2. Here friend, some bacon and lobster I cooked. Even though these are scavengers full of germs and live off carrion they still taste good.
Ex. 3. Oh, we are not under the law, it’s OK to take something now and then from Walmart to feed your children. I know you are having a hard time.
Do you do these things?
@ MSG
You really don’t have a clue – do you?
If I am under Grace how can I be guilty of sin. If I am in Yashua Anointed which I am how can there be any further condemnation?
Rom 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.
Only those who live under The Law – The Commandments are condemned because that’s what The Law does. You cannot be under His Grace and under The Law at the same time – that is a blasphemy and makes you a worse sinner than the lost and unsaved.
i did answer the other comment on the other thread – go back and read it.
And when are you going to answer MY questions instead of ignoring them like a rude ignorant moron.
You really are in idiot aren’t you?
You said, If I am under Grace how can I be guilty of sin. [Sic]
If you didn’t have sin you don’t need grace, but since you are FULL OF IT, all the more.
Rom 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
I went to the site and there is no answer.
And what question did you ask me? I do not recall NOT answering any of your questions, but you ignore mine with snarky remarks.
I’m beginning to think you have no truth, but are just here to annoy and take things out of context. I will found out in a few days.
@ MSG
There is only one idiot here sunshine and it’s you.
What do you know about Grace? NOTHING.
Any man who lives under The Law i.e. The Dietary Laws knows nothing about Grace. You are condemned by the very Law you’re pathetically attempting to obey.
You have no need of Grace because you’re earning your own salvation – a Judaising mongrel dog like all the other idiots here.
I do not sin, my dead body of sin, sins and that now means you have got to learn how to kill YOUR LIVING BODY OF SIN, because, as yet, you have not done that.
You have a living body of sin – I do not.
I have answered your other stupidity here:
/religion/2013/04/should-christians-keep-the-commandments-2450522.html
To Yes2truth,
I do not believe anyone that laughs and calls other morons, stupid to have truth or to give any. I think you just take things out of context and try to tease others with it.
I know you are wrong on at least one counts. You still eat your lust for lobster and pig meat. THRILLED that you disobey God and get away with it?
You yourself did not read the WHOLE account about Peter and the unclean meat. For if you read it to the END, you will see he said GOD SHOWED ME…..
Acts 10:28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
SCORE 1 for TRUTH!
I never said OBEYING the law saves you. YOU are saying that. Every Christian knows this that the Law only showed you what SIN IS! That was even known from the beginning. So where have you been all these years. Late for the party and THRILLED?
But let me ask you, what commandments DO YOU KEEP? Since you said they are all done away with? You must keep something since you are bragging about it.
@ MSG
You said:
“I do not believe anyone that laughs and calls other morons, stupid to have truth or to give any. I think you just take things out of context and try to tease others with it.”
And that’s your problem – YOU DON’T BELIEVE – YOU think you can save yourself by eating so called clean foods – no belief required at all.
You said:
“I know you are wrong on at least one counts. You still eat your lust for lobster and pig meat. THRILLED that you disobey God and get away with it?”
And here’s another problem you have, because you KNOW NOTHING, so you cannot KNOW that I am wrong. How can a man of error know what is wrong?
You said:
“You yourself did not read the WHOLE account about Peter and the unclean meat. For if you read it to the END, you will see he said GOD SHOWED ME…..
Acts 10:28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.”
Yes, call no man unclean who eats ‘unclean’ foods. Or are you saying that Peter then told Cornelius he must get circumcised as well as make him eat as The Jews eat?
You said:
“I never said OBEYING the law saves you.”
Then why are YOU obeying The Dietary Laws – why are you invoking The Law and making it binding on YOU – to what purpose?
You then contradict yourself:
“But let me ask you, what commandments DO YOU KEEP? Since you said they are all done away with? You must keep something since you are bragging about it.”
I am BORN OF GOD – a new man, with my old man living under HIS GRACE.
If you do not understand this concept then you are still dead in your sins and you’re just wasting my time.
Oh, you have so much going on in your little ad hominem mind.
I never saw Yashua going around calling pharisees morons, stupid, etc. I thought you are suppose to become like your master. That does not sound like someone “born of God” to me, as you say. Instead you are just trying to become like a master debater. Stop stroking your ego so much.
Yes, how can a man of error know so much? You must not long for you clams and pork now! I know it is thrilling to disobey God, but you must resist the temptation.
It does not say a man who eats unclean things (sort of like you) he said you should not call gentiles common or unclean anymore. Quite a difference.
We follow God because we love him. It’s all about love isn’t it? Not contradictions like you or calling others morons and stupid and laffing about it. He said if you love me you KEEP my commandments. Not YOUR idea of a commandment.
Do you know what born of God really means??? I don’t think you do. Explain what do you mean born of God? And just where did you get that commandment to qualify?
And every time it gets interesting (being kind here) you say I am wasting your time.
Unfortunately you’re just another Judaising know-nothing who thinks he knows all.
In Truth you’re just another stiff-necked rebel who knows nothing about Grace and remarkably also knows nothing about The Law thinking that The Law can be cherry picked whilst disobeying the other Laws i.e. animal sacrifices etc etc.
As for your whingeing about ad hominem attacks just have a read of these for they all apply to you and they were all uttered by Yashua Anointed:
“Generation (race) of vipers” “Throats like open graves” “Whited walls” “Whited sepulchres” “sons of the Devil”
No do as I say and stop wasting my time with your self-righteous unclean/clean foods Judaising crap and garbage.
How can a man who proclaims himself to be “born of God” go around calling others MORON, IDIOT, STUPID, etc.???
It is written, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself”
You must stop CHERRY picking what you like!
I know the law does not save. Every true Christians knows that. I said it is NOT a SIN to eat unclean foods full of bacteria, viruses or germs. If you hate your body that much go for it. But remember, He said your body is a temple!!
1Cor 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
You should read that verse above twice!
Rom 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
What is wrong with being righteous, and having faith in Yashua?
Try not to be offended because I am only describing you accurately and Truthfully.
And I find it very irritating when you either ignore what I write or pervert it or cannot perceive what I am saying. This is why I know you’re a waste of my time – a blind guide about to fall into a ditch, so please just go away.
Until you understand that Grace and Faith are Laws unto themselves you will forever flounder in the dark thinking that there is salvation in obedience to The Dietary Laws. This is a most wretched condition and makes you worse than the lost and unsaved.
Did not mean to offend you though I find it offensive that a man who proclaims he is “born of God” would call others, MORON, STUPID, IDIOT, etc.
Your GOD scares me if he is like that if he anything like you.
Me pervert anything? Naahhh…… But I do have a problem of someone who claims others for following the commandments and laws of God as “Judaizers” and then I wonder what law and commandments this guy followed to get to grace and be BORN OF GOD from Yashua who is from the tribe of Judah of all things!
Look, I know circumcision is not required, and all the other rituals and sacrifice and that eating unclean foods is not sin. It is not a requirement for salvation. But I still will not eat it as Peter did not either. There is no record any of the disciples ate unclean food. And all these things are done as examples for us.
Nonetheless i do like some of the things you say and use it as part of my study. But someone calling others morons and stupid, etc., clearly is bothersome as a “man of God” and cast doubt about what I am looking into.
But I still say you do not know what “born of God” means. Study it a little more and see if you are correct.
I am glad my God scares you – let’s hope it is enough to scare you to repentance so that you cease from thinking that dietary laws make a hill of beans difference to your salvation.
By Faith and Grace we are saved – period, not by any rituals and obedience to any Laws.
As a PS and a reminder:
Act 10:13 And there came a voice to him, RISE, PETER; KILL AND EAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yashua Anointed told Peter to rise, kill and eat – a very simple instruction for him to understand but not you.
yes2truth
When I fall short I have a High Priest in heaven that has been tempted exactly as I have been and He will ask my Father to forgive me. When I repent I am forgiven.
The sacrificial Law was added because of sin and was never part of the eternal HOLY Law of God. Galatians 3: 19
Can you please explain to me Exactly how the Law was “legally” nailed to the stake?
Everything God does is done according to LAW and I can not find how a death caused by sin can legally void the Law. What is the method used?
Was the Law found unconstitutional, Did God issue a new Law that voided the 10 Commandments? If you say Grace is the new Law that voids the Commandments,
please show me where Christ explained to His disciples the 10 Commandments were to be cast aside and replaced with total ‘freedom’ from having to do anything that we do not have to follow Christ as He follows the Father. I read the exact opposite.
I read in Matthew 7: 13 of the “way” you preach; the broad way that leads to destruction.
I will listen to my Savior and follow Him through the strait gate, you know the very narrow one that few find and the only one that leads to Life Eternal.
yes2truth you have turned the KINDNESS of God into lasciviousness and even worse you are working hard to pull people in to the same destruction with you.
YOU need to repent and obey God and live by every WORD.
@ LiesSeeker
What do you mean by ‘falling short’?
yes2
Ask God’s Word what falling short means.
I am looking forward to the explanation of the the legal way by which the Law was nailed to the stake. Plus all the others questions asked in my comment.
I will get to your ignorant loaded questions when you have answered my question. You profess to know better than me – you’re the one with the BIG I AM attitude telling me that I need to obey a god.
If you fail to answer my question, I will correctly assume that your use of the term ‘falling short’ means that you have used the term in ignorance and don’t know what it means at all, or it’s just a part of your deflecting from the real issues.
Whilst we’re on the subject of unanswered questions I am still waiting for you to tell me how, as a sinner, i.e. as imperfect with a blemished and spotted bridal gown, you’re going to enter Yashua Anointed’s Wedding Feast?
Yes2 truth,
You and I are 180 degrees from each other.
You claim you are perfect and can no longer sin.
I read I was forgiven at baptism but not made perfect! But now am on the WAY towards the perfection which is in Jesus Christ.
I can and do fall prey to the pull of the flesh from time to time. I have no righteousness of my own only what was given me by the sacrifice of Christ.
You claim you are free from the pull of the flesh. You claim you are not in the flesh. I am in the flesh until at the twinkling of an eye I am changed from this sinful flesh to immortal spirit.
You claim you are complete now in this life and have all things. I read I must endure all things until the end which includes enduring my own self. I read the righteous shall scarily be saved, that does not tell me I am perfect and have all things. The Saints are righteous in the Father’s eyes ONLY by the Blood of Christ that washed them clean.
You claim you are born again, I read I will be born again at the resurrection as immortal spirit.
.
When I see my sin I run to my Father and repent, my High Priest Jesus Christ asks our Father for forgiveness for me and my sins are covered by the blood of Christ.
You claim the whole Law was nailed to the stake, I read the legal document sentencing me to death for transgressions of the Law – Christ paid in my stead with His death and shed blood on the stake. My sin is washed away by His blood and nailed with Him to His stake.
You want nothing to do with the HOLY Law of God, I live by the Law because Jesus Christ told me I must live as He lived – by the Law. He tells me if I love Him I will obey the Law. The Law gives no one righteousness and never has but the Law is THE WAY OF Righteousness, the Law is the Light of Truth which shines on the ways of man bringing in to light their sin done in darkness.
If one wants to KNOW the mind of God – LOVE HIS LAW, meditate in it.
You tell me to repent from keeping the HOLY LAW of GOD,
I tell you to repent and obey and DO the Will of God the Father as Christ did His Father’s will.
You tell me Christ did it all for you, I do not believe that lie, Satan told Eve she had immortal life, and you are told you have nothing that is required of you, it has all been done for you. Really???
I see what Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Paul and Christ had to DO to please God. They all sinned (except Christ) they all had works they all endured until the end.
I can not change your mind, in your mind you are different then all that have come before you. I am no different from those above I am a flesh and blood human man willing to obey, willing and happy for the Blood of Christ to cleanse me of my sin.
I long for the day I will be free from this body of death. I long for the day Christ returns and rules the earth with His Rod of Iron; all will obey the Commandments, the Statutes, the Precepts and His Judgments. All will keep the Sabbath and the Holy Days of God and the food Laws.
But you are “freed” from that Perfect WAY of God.
ME, I want to live God’s Perfect Way now.

You laughably said:
“I read I was forgiven at baptism but not made perfect! But now am on the WAY towards the perfection which is in Jesus Christ.”
NO NO NO, in your mind you are NOT forgiven. You only pay lip service to His forgiveness, for in your mind His forgiveness is blasphemously incomplete and is forever in need of your reminding Him of how He has failed to completely forgive you – hence your repetitive confession of sins – which He has already forgiven.
This also means that your Baptism was a charade – a meaningless incomplete ritual.
Now please tell me when this process to perfection will be complete? Tomorrow – next week – next year – sometime never? Will you have a party to celebrate?
If this process to perfection is down to you and YOUR ability at Law keeping then this is without doubt Salvation by Works – a heinous evil blasphemy.
If you die tonight how will you know if you’re perfect or not?
Also, you call yourself “TruthSeeker” how is it that you have not yet found The Truth when you profess to be Baptised? This alone is mind boggling in its Spiritual blindness.
