Does scripture say what is each of the Ten Commandments?This language to me is in more keeping with the idea of making oneself as though one knows nothing except the topic at hand, I don't see where it has any value in proving that graven images are acceptable in context.
Again here in context with chapter 2 we see paul saying he is crucified with with christ, and if this verse is indeed strictly littoral I can see it as a positive to your point of view on this. Now, we know he wasn't literally crucified so it would seem to lean more towards poetic types of language rather than strictly litteral ones so I am more inclined to believe that this is not paul saying he brought a literal crucifix when he preached, but rather made the arguments for salvation and Jesus death obvious to them, maybe he brought proof to put before their eyes or some such thing as that.
Yeah that's in exodus 20
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Now we know we are not under the law, nevertheless all scripture is relevant for us even today. I can expound upon this later in the day.
They did teach all the known world of that time, now we can most certainly agree that the great commission goes on today, however this doesn't nessesitate new apostles, especially seeing as how not one new apostle that walks in the real and tangible power of God to perform miracles has risen since.
Acts 21 states the specific requirement of "these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us" which is a principle and scripture i believe supports my view on this issue in context.
Again what is the mark in scripture of these apostles? Real Power and authority to do actual verifiable miracles is it not?
Yes
Yes
Of course
I don’t see l any list of commandments only contents
the church provides the listing
Ten Commandments
Ex 20
Scripture has no list (1, 2, 3, etc.) of the Ten Commandments
According to subject matter or context:
First commandment: ex 20:2-6
One God
Second commandment: ex 20:7
God’s name
Third commandment: ex 20:8-11
God’s original sabbath
Fourth commandment: ex 20:12
Parents
Fifth commandment: ex 20:13
Murder
Sixth commandment: ex 20:14
Adultery
Seventh commandment: ex 20:15
Theft
Eighth commandment: ex 20:16
Lying
Ninth commandment: ex 20:17
Coveting
Separating the two about coveting makes sense!
Ninth: Thou shalt not covet Thy neighbors goods.
Tenth: Thou shalt not covet Thy neighbor’s wife.
What’s your understanding
