No, this has not been, otherwise you would know the truth and accept it.

I’m off to church, but your name says it all, Bipolar.

You claim to follow the World of Christ, yet you are stuck in the legalism of the law.

Chose one or the other. You cannot be of Christ if you cling to the law.

“You cannot be of Christ if you cling to the law.”

Paul referenced keeping the law as a means of obtaining salvation through works, which he describes as impossible. He affirmed the law (Ten Commandments) as a matter of personal conduct. The “law” to the Jews contained about 600 rules.

But in his long list of the works of the flesh that kept people out of the Kingdom of God, Sabbath breaking was not on it.

I have been on and participated many times on this topic. You are the one unfamiliar with truth.

You claim to follow the World of Christ, yet you are stuck in the legalism of the law.
There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
Don't do things that the Lord hates.

You cannot be of Christ if you cling to the law.
Like the serpent in the garden, you mix a little truth with a little lie for your syllogism. Shall we murder? Shall we worship false gods? What say ye? If not, why not? No law, right? Wrong. Ps. 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple. One cannot expect the law to save them. It cannot do that. That is not its purpose. Only the Blood of Christ saves but that does not relieve us of our duty to follow Gods Laws wrote with His finger in stone. God changes not.

May I then murder, blaspheme, take the Lords name in Vain, steal and bearing false witness? Is it OK if I worship other gods? The 10 Commandments are not laws, they are sacrosanct, they are eternal.
