Don’t have beef with anyone…just the “meating” of the minds.

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@spriteous @JosiahForYeshua Yes, that’s precisely the meaning of that passage. So many twist it into something else entirely!

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@writeontheedg3 Right, plus it’s not that “water baptism saves…what saves is faithful obedience.

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

Yes, I’m quite familiar with the feasts and different ideas on how they map to prophecy. However, there’s a bit more to the story. Jesus’ sacrifice is both likened to the Passover and to the Day of Atonement.

I also disagree with the idea that Jesus returns on the Day of Trumpets, as Paul mentions “the final trumpet” which in my view is the final blowing on the Day of Atonement that announces the year of Jubilee.

But we don’t know exactly how the future unfolds. So, take these ideas with a grain of salt.

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

I actually disagree with the idea that Jesus needed to die precisely when the passover lambs were slaughtered. He’s not literally a passover lamb…wrong age, wrong body, and wrong place of slaughter. And he didn’t need to die at a precise moment to metaphorically be our Passover.

@themendelbrain @HisWordForever How does your breakdown of it go?

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@TheJewAbides So true!

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@themendelbrain @EvanPaul05 It just gets weird and gnostic. 😬

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@jasontestifies @FrankLets78822 So, providing more information is “moving the goalposts”? If you’re not interested in learning, only engaging in lashon hara, there’s nothing left to do here.

Have a nice day.

@jasontestifies @FrankLets78822 He met the criteria to be one of the 12…who will judge the 12 tribes of Israel. The 12 are not the only emissaries out there.

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@jasontestifies @FrankLets78822 As did Peter. Glad to hear you’re so clever, my friend!

@Be_Like_JChrist @Keneetia Have you ever read Matthew 5? The Bible is a big book. Please study the rest of it, not just the pet passages removed from their original context.

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

No, he literally did no such thing. And bearing false witness is, in itself, a violation of Torah. You’re speaking from a position of ignorance. Paul absolutely believed in keeping Torah. However, he understood that in Messiah, there are still distinctions between Jewish people and gentiles. So, he encouraged gentiles to embrace their calling as they learned to obey the commandments.

“Only let each person live the life the Lord has assigned him and live it in the condition he was in when God called him. This is the rule I lay down in all the congregations. Was someone already circumcised when he was called? Then he should not try to remove the marks of his circumcision. Was someone uncircumcised when he was called? He shouldn’t undergo b’rit-milah. Being circumcised means nothing, and being uncircumcised means nothing; what does mean something is keeping God’s commandments.”
1 Corinthians (1 Co) 7:17-19

According to Acts 15, this was the decision of all the leaders of the Way in Jerusalem.

@chesed1973 @KINGSKWRL @SKWRLKing @EpicSKWRLbattle Sad and immature behavior. Why come online and harass people?

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

That is a patently false accusation. Please, do not bear false witness against Paul.

“Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless, and regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; just as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.”
2 Peter 3:14-16

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@SKWRLKing @chesed1973 Why do you make incoherent arguments? There is no meaning in the accusation that someone is exalting God’s word above the word made flesh. Do you not understand that Scripture is eternal and cannot be broken?

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

Ironically, only a carnal mind is, in fact, under the law.

“Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its lusts, and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace.”
Romans 6:12-14

Only those who walk in the obedience that comes through faith are, in reality, not under the law!

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

@just_keep_read You’re probably not a believer in gnosticism! 😅

[Well-Marbled Musings @MarbledWell7]

Paul taught the same thing. They just ignore all the clear teachings of Paul on the subject.

“For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.”
Galatians 6:8-9

“But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who will render to each person according to his deeds: to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life; but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation.”
Romans 2:5-8

@5SolasMissy @FrankLets78822 It was very much a technical term that nowadays would be something like “convert to Judaism”. Acts 15 gives us the full context of the controversy.
