The Christian, God's Commands, and Obedience to Christ - February 18th, 2012, 07:22 PM

Feel free and add anything that comes to mind. We are to obey Jesus, God's Son, our Lord, Master, Savior, and Friend.

Much more learning ahead of me, that I would be a good servant of Christ.

Shalom.

Obedience: Something God Desires.

Are good works "good"?

Being Obedient -- What is it like?

Obedience to God, Is there a command of God you endeavor to obey?

Morality, The Law, and God

What Does It Mean To Obey God?

Is there no longer any law?

The Law of Christ: Doing what God wants us to do.

Can A Christian Do Good Works?

Saved by Grace

The Law Of Christ -- What Is It? What Does It Mean To Be Under It?

We Are Not Under Law -- But We Are Obedient To God's Commands

What Is Required For Salvation?

God's Grace

The Teaching Ministry of Jesus

What Does God's Word Accomplish?

Salvation -- "have been saved"

Circumcision and Uncircumcision -- Diverging Theologies

Love Your Enemies

God's commands: Love God, Love Your Neighbor

The Will of God -- Yes, it is in the Bible.

Salvation is by grace, not of works

What does it mean to obey God?

Is the Christian permitted to be obedient?

Is a person saved by their obedience?

Obedience and Gentiles in the Same Verse

Keeping the Sabbath

Love One Another

The Word of God -- The Gospel

Faith, And "The One Who Does Not Work"

The Law -- Jesus and the Commands of God

Under Law/Under Grace

Can a Person Know I am Saved by My Works?

I Believe I Am Saved -- Do I Have To Do Anything To Be Saved?

The Ten Commandments





Deuteronomy 10:12 (KJV) And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,

Deuteronomy 10:13 (KJV) To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?

Untelectual,

I suggest to you that you read Jesus' sermon on the mount to know what He teaches and commands. You are making up you own doctrines instead of reading His Gospel.

Reading the Bible twice in twenty years and spreading your own doctrines is arrogant, dear.

meshak,

I was excommunicated from my home church of 25 years about 6-7 years ago. The passage was Matthew 5:17-20 where I had a dispute, believing God's commands are for today.

I have since learned God's grace. I desire to share this with you, so that you would learn from my experience.

Peace to you.

Christianity is all about being obedient to Jesus. Read His gospel.

His teachings and commandments are very simple and you are muddying them all up. Thats what most mainstreamers do; muddying up simple teachings and make up false gospel..

Meshak does not care what you have to say. It's all about her.

You are welcome to address anything you believe to be false.

I just read Matthew 5-7 like you suggested.

Your rebuke is unintelligible to me, and has been repeated. But perhaps I can learn more from someone else as is proper. I thought you were a man and rebuking me, which rebuke I would accept. But I was wrong. I can still learn from you to read Jesus' teachings. May your authority extend to the people in your household. Blessings.

The indistinction in what you are saying troubles me.

May God's peace be with you. Shalom.

Many years ago I got hung up on the same verse and also had problems with the church and family. But I felt then, and still do, you have to go with what you think God expects of you. God's commands are for all men for all time. They point to love. Love is the fulfillment of his commandments. I believe in grace also, but our hearts should be filled with love for his law.

God Bless





Psalm 1[/color] and Job 28:28

Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

Joh 4:23 "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.

I love the God of my Lord Jesus Christ

Jesus' commands are Torah. That the simple part. Meshak muddies them with her particular brand of self righteousness.

What Jesus taught was the same as what his God put on the stones given to Moses. Jesus came to help explain their meaning to us and write them in our heart.





Psalm 1[/color] and Job 28:28

Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
