Ok then - let's put 2 and 2 together for you - according to Matt. 28 and Matt 23 Jess told those folks to keep the law so...
James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
Enjoy keeping the law -
I'll do what God and the resurrected Saviour told me to do today - follow Paul.
1 Cor 4:16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.
1 Cor 9:17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
1 Cor 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
2 Tim 2:7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
And because I consider Paul then I have more understanding than you on body of Christ truths for today while you stay flounder blindly around in the Gospels and the OT - I glory not but in Jesus Christ here.
Again - because I consider Paul I have more understanding of Gospel and OT truths than you - I glory not but in Jesus Christ here.
Rom 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
Because I consider Paul then Rom. 15:4 comes alive and I can really see and enjoy the Gospels and the OT more.
Now let's talk about your blindness...
Eph 3:9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
2 Cor 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
Blind people cannot see their own blindness. They are not humble enough to see that they do not know better than the Word of God. I don't frequent this site much any more because of the ludicrous claims people make here with nothing to back them up. Some people just like to play God instead of to agree with God. "He who exalts himself will be humbled." So since these people don't care if they are humbled, then they get what they deserve. ;-)
