Commandments and the Law

Did God change His instructions and expectations for His people? Or did He decide to help them to be better and more obedient by providing His Holy Spirit?

if most christian churches are in error by worshiping god on sunday , where do you go to worship on saturday ? either you are jewish or sda ?

[richardperry2]

@rev6litre - As Yahweh instructed, I keep the Sabbath holy to the Lord and celebrate the seven annual Feasts of Yahweh as best I can.

I'm part of a Messianic group who accept all of Scripture while turning awaqy from the teachings and traditions of Man, as best we can.

Uh, there are many verses that say the contrary in the NT - especially regarding to the Gentiles. 2nd Corinthians 3 is just one example. Also, the commandments spoken of in Revelation are detailed in John's letters.

1 John 3:23 "And this is HIS commandment, That we should BELIEVE on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment."

Do you realize what you said?

You said, "there are many verses that say the contrary in the NT "

Since I only quoted from Scripture, you are saying that God contradicts Himself.

I think it is more likely that you do not understand that Paul kept the law as Christ kept the Law and we too should follow Christ and keep the Law.

Don't be confused, we are not under the Law but under the Spirit by Faith.

But that in no way means we should forget the Law and fail to uphold the Law.

He's not saying that's the Only commandment... He's just pointing out that they were to do those things. Read this whole book.

[faxchase]

Context... Look at the verses around that one.

"22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Yahushua the Messiah, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. 24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us."

[1Trupurpose]

They did that because they wanted to distance themselves from the Jews. The 1st Word(commandment) is just a statement, vs.2. Again, test this with 2 witnesses that know the original text.

If you read Deuteronomy you will see that it explains all for us and when Yahshua came the feasts in Deut ended until the new Jerusalem arrives. and right at the end of ecclesiastes the teacher warns us about to many writings(ie.paul, luke, timm,titus, even John and Peter are not stable, only Matthew James and Jude,Law and Prophets

[ShemarYAH1]

@hottamale02 I can see that you are a man of great knowledge and that you have a form of godliness and know many things; however in this very important truth ( keeping the commandments which includes keeping the Sabbath (7th) day holy), you are in error. Please study this more and see the truth for what it is. Paul said, do we then nullify the law, God forbid! We uphold the law! Read psalms 119 and you can see the importance of keeping TORAH! His commandments are forever! Grace riding is sin!

[SHEEPinWOLFskin]

"To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" - Isaiah 8:20

YAHUshua said - "For whosoever shall do the will of my Father(YHWH) which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother" Matthew 12:46-50

Good video :)

[keksinnot]

I would love to peek into your life to see if you love God with all your heart and with all your soul, and with all your might. Also i would like to see do you love your neighbor as yourself.

What you just wrote as comment is just as idiotic as that above.

Answer me:

Do you love God the way Jesus said you should?

For if you do not (which i believe is true; based on your comments), should you then stop completely trying to love God?

Same applies to keeping of the Sabbath.

[boltingpuppies]

So true. YHVH said not to follow anyone who does signs and wonders who then tries to lead us to follow other gods, we are being tested by YHVH. Instead we are to love YHVH and follow His commands. This was true in the Torah and stands today, as Yeshua said He did not come to do away with Torah, nor did He lead us away from YHVH or the commands. Yeshua is YHVH, He does not contradict Himself. Blessings in Yeshua.

faxchase, you made so many good points. One caught my eye that I just wanted to elaborate on. "Read this whole book"... Good advice. I have found in the past several months that when I read a sentence here and a sentence there, esp. in the letters, it can be hard to understand. But when I read a LETTER - from start to finish - and in light of what our Savior said - it all flows.

As a rule: If something SEEMS to disagree w/what our Messiah said - read it again. In context, as you said. :)

[Jimvesterstallone]

Richard, this video is so well done. Scripture agrees with itself...the Son agrees with the Father...they are ONE! Bless you friend!
