mharold,
Questions from Luke 6:1-4:
- Is it lawful for Disciples to pluck the heads of grain on Sabbath? [ X] Yes [] No.
Ans: You forgetting they was trying to find a reason to discredit Jesus, Lord of the sabbath..So read Matt 12 the whole chapter.
Felix: The question is not about Jesus Christ
[
1] At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
[
2] But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.
[
3] But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;
[
4] How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
[
5] Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless
[
6] But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
[
7] But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
He just said it in verse 7. But something only Jesus do, He say something that fly over people head at first... But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will... He said I will... You can read it...
A man was stoned for gathering sticks on Sabbath (Num 15:32-36). God got angry for gathering manna which is for eating on Sabbath (Exod 16:28).
- When Jesus pointed out the David /showbread incident, did He by any chance justify the acts of David or His disciples by saying it is lawful? [X ] Yes [X] No.
Ans: Matt. 12:5-7
Felix: Matt. 12:5-7 does not say priests profaning the Sabbath is lawful.
[
1] At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
[
2] But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.
[
3] But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;
[
4] How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
[
5] Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
[
6] But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
Well right here He said if the priest is blameless so you can't blame no one else else because the priests are not bigger than the temple. It very simple....
[
7] But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
- Are the 10 commandments included in the old covenant? [ ] Yes [ X] No.
Ans: Exodus 31:18; Deut 31:9
Just to show the different of who wrote what.
Felix: The question is not about who wrote it. Rather, are the 10 commandments included in the old covenant. For you reference, (Exod 34:28) says, .. "He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the Ten Commandments"
[
18] And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
My reason to show you this was God written and man written... Duet.9:9-10
[
9] When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which the LORD made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:
[
10] And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which the LORD spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.
- Is the old covenant obsolete? [X] Yes [X] No.
Ans:James 2:10-11; 1 John 2:2-5;1 John 2:23-25; Matt 15:3-9; Col 2:14
Felix: Yes and No cannot be an answer. If you haven't read Heb 8:13, I will paste it for you. ... In that He says, "A new [covenant,"] He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
COL 2
:14] 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;
That should answer your last two question....
And that reason I said yes and no because the written law is out but the stone law is in..
If you need more let me know....
Felix: The answers provided by you are not correct.
