If you’re going to quote Galatians 2:16, don’t forget what Romans 2:13 says, or Psalm 119:44-45, or Psalm 119:53, or Psalm 119:142 & 151, or Isaiah 2:2-3, or John 14:23-24, Revelation 22:14-15, John 5:46-47, or Isaiah 40:8 … Nowhere are we instructed in the Bible to “abandon the Law.” In fact, we read in Proverb 4:2, “For I give you good doctrine: Do not forsake my law.” And in the same chapter, verse 4, we read, “Let your heart retain my words; keep my commands, and live.” You said that our “sins are forgiven.” The Bible defines SIN: 1 John 3:4 tells is that “…sin is the transgression of the Law.” While it is true that our sins can be forgiven, brother Paul said we are not to continue in sin (Romans 6), in other words, we’re not to continue transgressing the Law. It is written in 1 John 2:1, “My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And IF ((NOT WHEN)) anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Yahushua the Messiah the righteous.” And in Hebrews 10 we read, “For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. Anyone who has rejected Moses' ((really, YHWH’s)) law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.” And Deuteronomy 13:1-5 tells us that if anyone comes along seeking “to entice [us] from the way in which YHWH [our] Elohim commanded [us] to walk,” (which is according to His Law), we are supposed to “put away the evil from [our] midst.” Are you sure you want to continue trying to entice people away from His Law?
Thanks so much!!
