we christians come to jesus through faith and not by any laws?

Question

dont you think its time we christians start following the teachings of jesus instead of the old testament laws ?
as a christian woman liberation comes to the human race only through our lord and not through moses or abraham.

am i right?

april, its not from jesus. thats the words of paul, and i dont follow paul

Answer 1

You are quite incorrect that "liberation comes to the human race only through our lord and not through moses or abraham." If it wasn't for the Mosaic Law in particular, the human race wouldn't be able to understand it was in need of a Savior. True, the OT laws have been fulfilled, but only for the BELIEVER.

We are repeatedly told in the Bible that the Law currently serves the same purpose it ALWAYS has: to show sinners they cannot possibly save themselves; to prove to them they are sinners; and to show them they need a Savior.

Once a person believes and repents, they are released from the burdon of the Law and fall under the New Covenant laws of Jesus Christ.

This is the main theme of the Book of Romans.

Peace.

p.s. -- Paul is Jesus's "chosen vessel" (Acts 9:15); therefore, Paul's teachings ARE Jesus's teachings. See also 2 Peter 3:15 and 16. To ignore Paul's teachings is to ignore Jesus.

Answer 2

The teachings of Jesus and the Old Testament laws are the same thing, as He came to fulfill the law, not to do away with it. Jesus IS The Word (The Bible), and it does not contradict itself or change. What needs to be understood is who said what, when and why. If 5 people are standing around having a conversation where some may disagree with the others, and there's one person listening and taking notes...when the one person writes what everyone said, what is written will differ, but it does not mean it wasn't said or that what the writer wrote is not the truth about the conversation. READ THE WHOLE BIBLE, pray and ask God to open His wisdom to your understanding and use study tools (I suggest a Bible Dictionary, Concordance, and a Matthew Henry Commentary).

Further, regarding your comment to April regarding what Paul said... Apostle Paul was not just any person walking down the street. God gave him His wisdom and knowledge, and His Holy Spirit to guide him in his writings. This is why his writings are in the bible, and is the substance of most of the New Testament. Therefore, what Paul had to say was what Jesus had to say.

Notice what Paul said in these scriptures to the church at Ephesus:

Ephesians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

Ephesians 3
1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ FOR you Gentiles,
2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God WHICH IS GIVEN ME TO YOU-ward:

What is written is TRUTH, and is FROM GOD.

Ephesians 5
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

This is decent and orderly. Why wouldn't we submit ourselves to our husbands? They have been made the head--ordained BY GOD to lead his family in the way that He would have them go.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

Sis, I encourage you to spend more time in The Word of God for understanding. There is POWER involved in a God-fearing family that walks in obedience. There are so many principles you should understand when looking at what thus sayeth the Lord.

God bless you and keep you.

Answer 3

There is a difference to what laws in the old testament we should or should not follow. The ten commandments are still valid but the laws of Moses are not please read Deut. 31 to see the difference between the two laws - the Law of God was written by God with his finger and the Law of Moses was written by Moses in a Book and placed outside of the ark. What is sin? 1 John 3:4Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

Answer 4

The laws that Moses and Abraham taught are the same laws that the Savior said he came to teach, not to do away with. So if you don't keep the laws written by Moses then you are not following the Savior. The Liberation you are speaking of what the apostles called licentiousness or a license to sin. This is not how the Creator designed our body to live. So if this what you chose to do with your gift of choice then you to will be like Adam and Eve, and dying you will die eternally.
No you are not right to want to be allowed to sin.

Answer 5

i do not truly have a project with this, on condition that i'm no longer a literalist, and the regulation is largely humankind's astounding attempt to be certain God's will for our reliable habit. for sure what changed into reliable habit the day previous nonetheless is reliable habit. on the different hand, the view taken of the regulation is a relax of the view in course of each and every of the untidy issues that require particular sorts of particular habit. As in some many different issues, the scripture tells us 2 contradictory issues: The regulation keeps for the forseeable destiny; the regulation is positioned aside. With all due appreciate to each and every of the wonderful study someone has executed right here, the numerous reason we call Torah the regulation is that human beings of the Jewish faith call it the regulation unceasingly. the way the regulations are talked about in scripture truly shows the truth very obviously: those regulations were no longer something if no longer definitive and quite restrictive. to point in the different case flies contained in the face of undeniable scripture. No, the finished answer to the remember of the regulation is to treat the completed remember with flexibility. stop attempting to pretend the Bible is a literal rule e book (It particular isn't) or writ by the finger of God (back, close, yet no cigar). Take the completed remember with flexibility. that's truly one party in which the habit of Jesus is amazingly instructive. He knew and observed the regulation, yet he changed into no longer sure by it, or maybe as it did not make experience, he did not hesitate to do an end run. He respected it, yet no longer rigidly. Flexibility is the answer. rigidity isn't powerful (granted, it will be in some particular situations, yet right here of the regulation isn't one in all them). i appreciate the AA declaring: "enable go, and allow God."

Answer 6

If you want to folloe the teachings of Jesus that is good but how can you say you want to follow Jesus and believe in woman liberation that is not what God teaches. or Jesus. and the person who comments that that is Paul and I do not follow him why would you not want to listen to him when he walked with Jesus and he gives instruction from Jesus. 1Corinthians 14:34 women are to remain silent in church ,they are not to teach men but can teach children. 1Timothy 2:9 women are to dress modestly. If you read 1 Timothy you can learn about the conduct that Jesus wants from us all in alot of aspects of life.

Answer 7

Paul followed Jesus and Jesus followed God what wrong is with following paul to Jesus than Jesus to God?

Answer 8

Jesus sets us free. But the law is used to show us what is sin.

Answer 9

here's a thought then. Stop using the law to enforce your religion on people and you might get a few more converts.
