DO WE OFTEN TIMES AGREE TO THINGS WE KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT?

 

DO WE OFTEN TIMES AGREE TO THINGS WE KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT?

by #JJD_Peterson, Date: 2019-08-21

It's really no surprise that we may say "AMEN" to commands we don't understand, but resist the ones we do.

For instance many Christians will agree that they shouldn't commit adultery, but when hearing the command, nod their head and say "Amen". But have they truly considered that if the woman is married a second time while the first husband remains alive, that they are living in adultery themselves, Romans 7:2-3, Exodus 22:16?

For example, the woman at the well with Messiah, in John 4: Didn't Messiah say to her that she's had five husbands, and the one she had was not her husband? Do you think she may have also been ignorantly saying "Amen" to the command "Thou shalt not commit adultery" while ignorantly living in it? Or maybe she knew and continued transgressing.
Is this just as the title says? We agree to things we don't understand?
When it comes to the Sabbath commandment, a very simple and straight forward sort of instruction, we may call whomever defending it "A LEGALIST!"

Why?

Probably because we understand what is expected, but we haven't yet resolved to do it. So we utter out "LEGALIST" in haste as a defense for the illegalist within.

It may be that we can quickly agree to misinterpreted commands while in ignorance, but when we come to understand them, will we face them head on for what they tell us to do? We are either in faith or out of it. As we come to learn the commands, we ought to conform just the same.
"For if we sin purposely after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a slaughter offering for sins, but some fearsome anticipation of judgment, and a fierce fire which is about to consume the opponents. Isa. 26:11." Hebrews 10:26-27.

When it becomes clear to us that we are living contrary to the commands of Elohim (God), we should not blurt out "LEGALIST", but rather evict the illegalist within, so we may be washed by the Lamb.

The Importance of the cross, the importance of the Cross?

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CROSS, THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CROSS? By JJD_Peterson Dated: 2019-07-01 Do we know why Messiah went to the tree? Because if we break the Father's Torah even one time, we need redemption. What is the Torah? It's the laws of Elohim for us found in the first five books of the old testament. If we truly valued the Messiah for becoming the Lamb of Elohim, we would stop putting Him on the tree, and seek to obey the Father instead. If we were in debt to Elohim, and appreciate His sacrifice, shouldn't we appreciate forgiveness, and stop piling up more sin on the innocent Son? Has the tree of Messiah become the sinner's credit card? Let it not be! Romans 6:1-2 TS2009 1 What, then, shall we say? Shall we continue in sin, to let favour [or the tree] increase? 2 Let it not be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? I believe if we actually knew that our sin put Messiah on the tree, we would stop sinning. Whoever keeps on sinning does not love Him...

Did you know Girlfriend and Boyfriend is not in the Bible?

Did you know Girlfriend and Boyfriend is not in the Bible? Only Marriage and Adultery Exodus 22:16, 1st Corinthians 6:9-10, Deuteronomy 22:28-29 By: JJP Peterson Dated: 2018-07-10 Attention to the young men and anyone willing to hear the law on marriage: If you are shacking up with some woman, and you've gone into her, the bible calls this either adultery or marriage. HOW WILL YOU KNOW IF IT IS ADULTERY OR MARRIAGE? ADULTERY : If the woman you're shacking up with gave her virginity to a guy before you, and he is still alive, then he is her husband as long as he lives, and if you continue a relationship with her, while her husband lives, you are committing adultery, and no practice of adultery inherits eternal life, 1st Corinthians 6:9-10. MARRIAGE : If the woman you're shacking up with was a maiden or a virgin for you when you went in to her, then she is your wife for all your days, and you are not allowed to put her away to get another, or you'd be committing ...
