And wont you be suprised when it is NOT the man from Nazareth.
Jer16:19 O LORD, my strength and my fortress, My refuge in the day of affliction, The Gentiles shall come to You From the ends of the earth and say, “ Surely our fathers have inherited lies, Worthlessness and unprofitable things.”
Is2:2And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations (הַגּוֹיִם )(goyim) shall flow unto it. 3And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
The nations (goyim) go to Zion to learn the Law. The Law? I thought the Law was a curse according to Paul the roman.
My money is the Rabbi from Nazareth. The Law is a curse if one must adhere to all the If one can call on an everlasting sacrifice for my sins, With the coming of the New Covenant The paul the roman you refer to is Do not take your understanding of the followers of the MashiachI guess we will have to see as who the Mashiach is.
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
Law for every moment of one's life with no exception.
I am freed of the curse of the Law.
the Law is written on our hearts.
in fact Saul the student of Gamaliel the Elder.
from the Roman "church".
G-d gave us the Law to do. Told us we CAN do it. It is not up in heaven....it is not accross the sea...but near to us...in our mouth and in our heart that we may DO IT. Deut 30 KJV.
Do you really think G-d is going to give us a Law we CANT do? After telling us we can? Is G-d duplicitous? A liar? G-d forbid! The bible also says many times the Law is FOREVER (Ps 111 for one). Again is G-d a liar? It isnt really
forever even though He say it is?
If one can call on an everlasting sacrifice for my sins, I am freed of the curse of the Law.
There is not verse in all of Tanach that speaks of an everlasting sacrifice. Human sacrifice is forbidden. Human vicarious atonement is forbidden. Forgiveness is obtained through prayer, repentance, charity and fasting (and there are others). No blood required!
With the coming of the New Covenant the Law is written on our hearts.
A)The new covenant has not arrived yet. B) The new cov is with the house of Israel...not the gentiles and finally Jeremiah 34And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Has that happened yet? No. The new covenant is not in place. And new covenant does NOT mean new Torah or no Torah.
The paul the roman you refer to is in fact Saul the student of Gamaliel the Elder.
Says who? The Talmud speaks of Gamaliel and some of his students but if Paul was his student, the Talmud never mentions it. And you would think that if Paul was such a awesome student...he would have been mentioned. Also, Pauls argumentations are not Pharisiaical.
Shalom
