@BelteshazzarAD@BrysonGray Youre cherrypicking out of context letters from Paul to justify sin and condemn Paul to death as a false teacher
For the each of the 7 verses you took out of context I could give you 10 telling you to obey God that are in context
Start with just Psalms 119. ALL OF IT
② Mishlĕ (Proverbs) 29:25-26 TS2009
The fear of man brings a snare,
But whoever trusts in יהוה is set on high.
Many seek the face of a ruler,
But right-ruling for man
comes from יהוה.
① John 12:42-43 NKJV
Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

I want to make sure I have this right.
You all believe God made a law, and he said the law wasn’t difficult to keep AND said it will last forever. He even prophesied it will be in the new covenant.
Many do not go deep into Gods word because they fear what they may find.
Might have to change your life if you do a deep dive.
There are plenty of pastors that are more than willing to tell you what you want to hear.
Open the book and read every bit of it!
@servantofyh Very funny, but very sad at the same time.
Neither did the "every day Joe citizen" get to administer death penalties "just because". Courts, judges & conviction req. Wow, just like our system now! But, God's laws are "evil".
The lack of Bible understanding is pathetic!
One thing I've noticed in conversations about Torah is that many Christians hear every discussion of obedience as though it were a discussion about earning salvation.
They're two different conversations.
If I say,
"Start with kindness."
"Read the Scriptures."
"Learn God's appointed times."
"Honor your parents."
Some immediately respond,
"But salvation is by grace through faith!"
I agree.
But that's not what we were talking about.
If I tell a new believer to pray, read Scripture, forgive others, or care for the poor, no one accuses me of teaching salvation by works.
Why?
Because discipleship naturally follows faith.
Yet the moment I mention a command found in the Torah, many people suddenly switch categories and begin defending justification by faith.
Trusting in Messiah is how we enter the covenant.
Learning to walk in God's ways is how we grow within it.
Not every conversation about obedience is secretly a conversation about earning eternal life.
Sometimes it's simply a conversation about becoming more like the One we say we follow.
Yeshua’s rebukes are not random insults or personal attacks. They consistently target:
Hypocrisy.
Religious pride.
Willful unbelief despite clear evidence.
Those who burden others with man-made traditions.
Leaders who mislead God’s people.
His Word is clear and perfect, we just need to listen and implement it within our lives.
“The Torah of יהוה is perfect, bringing back the being; The witness of יהוה is trustworthy, making wise the simple; The orders of יהוה are straight, rejoicing the heart; The command of יהוה is clear, enlightening the eyes; The fear of יהוה is clean, standing forever; The right-rulings of יהוה are true, They are righteous altogether, More desirable than gold, Than much fine gold; And sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. Also, Your servant is warned by them, In guarding them there is great reward.”
Tehillim (Psalms) 19:7-11 TS2009
I don’t know who wants to hear this,
But Yeshua will literally come down to rule the Earth, our Earth as King of Kings and Lord of Lords
So, Do not give yourself into gnostic beliefs like this physical earth is worthless, enlightened (saved) will go to spiritual heavenly realm and other such beliefs
Almost all denominations claim they are the way; they have it right and they are the ones.
Can true followers of God be corralled in by a denominational title
"Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus"
Freedom
@peggebeen@BrysonGray This is an almost laughable take, if it wasn’t used to justify sin. You’re mixing Acts 10 and Mark 7, neither passage talks about eating animals God said don’t eat
I Corinthians 5:9-13 NKJV
I wrote to you in my epistle
not to keep company
with sexually immoral people.
Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world.
But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—not even to eat with such a person.
For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside?
Do you not judge those who are inside?
But those who are outside God judges.
Therefore “put away from yourselves the evil person.”

Proverbs 24:21-22 NKJV
My son, fear the Lord and the king;
Do not associate with those given to change;
For their calamity will rise suddenly,
And who knows the ruin those two can bring?
