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.

According to the word of Elohim (God), rape of an unbetrothed virgin girl by a man is marriage

According to the word of Elohim (God), rape of an unbetrothed virgin girl by a man is marriage, not rape, and the killing of her child is murder, not an excuse. Rather than calling him raper, call him husband and father. Exodus 22:16 TS2009 “And when a man entices a maiden who is not engaged, and lies with her, he shall certainly pay the bride-price for her to be his wife. Deuteronomy 22:28-29 TS2009 28 “When a man finds a girl who is a maiden, who is not engaged, and he seizes her and lies with her, and they are found out, 29 then the man who lay with her shall give to the girl’s father fifty pieces of silver, and she is to be his wife because he has humbled her. He is not allowed to put her away all his days. Original Facebook post with 192+ comments

THE RIGHT INSURANCE PLAN

THE RIGHT INSURANCE PLAN by JJD Peterson Dated: 2019-07-18 I suppose a man buying insurance for his phone finds security knowing that his phone will be replaced if it gets broken. So he treats his phone carelessly and not as careful as he ought. Then one day it drops to the floor and the screen breaks. He fears nothing and calls for his help. Oh insurance company, come to my rescue. "Good afternoon sir, what can I do for you,"  the voice at the other end greets. "Well my phone fell to the ground and broke, and I'd like to replace it with a new one," you say in total confidence. "I'm sorry sir, but in the contract, it says that phone drops are not covered by the plan."   "Uh oh.." And if we think we will be saved by Messiah without ever repenting of keeping His torah (or laws), we also will be shocked in the day of judgment.  Matthew 7:21-23 TS2009 21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Master, Master,’ shall enter into the reign of the heave...
