If I rely on the "LAW" to take away the death my transgressions caused,
then I am cursed, because
there is no Law that can take away sins. I would "HAVE TO" be perfect and Keep All the Law at all times, because if I sin,
the wages of sin "is death". This is the "Curse" of the Law, If you transgress God's Laws, you will die.
And there is no Law that can take away this death.
But I have already sinned. It's too late for me. It wouldn't matter if I followed every Law of God for the rest of my life, the Law of God defines sin, it doesn't remove the death transgression of God's Law brings. I would be cursed above measure if I relied on the Law to take away the death, the "Curse" that transgressing it brings. And there is no Law of God that can take away sins.
Gal. 3:
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
What you refuse to accept, even after you were shown, is that in God's Mercy, after golden Calf, HE "ADDED" a Law concerning burnt offering and sacrifices for sins. This "Law" was temporary as it was only to be in place, "Till the Seed should Come", to who the promise we made. (This would be Jesus, which it seems you don't know)
This is not "my gospel", but reflects what is actually written in Scriptures.
Heb. 10:
1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never "with those sacrifices" which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. 3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.
4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. 5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering "thou wouldest not", but "a body" hast thou prepared me: 6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
The Pharisees in Galatians didn't believe Jesus was this Seed, they were still relying on, or "Of" these sacrificial "Works" of the Added Law that God "added" because on Transgressions.
Paul is explaining that it was never the Blood of Goats that removed the death their transgression brought on them, it was always Grace and Mercy for those who "Believed in and Loved God" enough to bring for works worthy of repentance.
I believe in this God, and HIS Christ, despite this world's religious system and traditions you are here to promote.
God's Laws defines for those who seek Him, Righteousness, Holiness, Cleanliness, Goodness, Mercy and Compassion. If I repent from living by and promoting the man-made traditions, high days, judgment's and philosophies of this world's religious system you have chosen to "Live By", and are promoting to others, I will not be OK.
But if a man repents of this wickedness, "
Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in "the children of disobedience", and he follows the teaching of those who were actually sent by God, like Paul. This man will, "
repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance."
These "works" would be obedient works, not disobedient works. This isn't "watering God's Laws down", rather, it would be showing belief, honor and respect for God, with all ones heart. That is why I will not submit to your preaching, rather, I will follow the Teaching of my Lord and Savior, the Jesus, "Of the Bible" and chose to Live By the Word's HE instructs. As Paul also teaches.
1 Tim. 3:
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for "instruction in righteousness": 17 That the "man of God" may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
I believe these would be the "works" God before ordained, that we should walk in them.
I didn't say you refused to "respond", you almost always respond in some sort or fashion, and have so many times I have lost count. That isn't what I said. Here is what I posted, "You keep refusing to address the scriptures of my post, or engaging in any manner of honest discussion about them".
And yes, you "responded" to the post. but not the Scriptures sited in them, nor do you ever engage in any honest discussion or examination of them.
Like when you refuse to acknowledge that Jesus and His Father were not promoting different Laws in Matt. 5, as you and "Many", who come in Christ's Name Promote.
You responded, but didn't address or discuss, or even acknowledge in most cases.
That's OK, I mean you are free to live as you please, and then justify your works.
I was talking about what is actually written in scriptures.
Really???
OK, it's your sermon.
LOL, and yet it is you who brag about having no beam in your eye, and that you haven't rejected anything God has said.
Fascinating!!!!
