How Jesus Used Sabbath Controversies to Teach Us Stuff: The Mark Series part 10 (

[@MikeWinger]

Just a quick note related to the Sabbath. I do not think Christians are called to be under the Law and we do not have the same obligation to observe the Sabbath that they did at the time of the events of Mark chapter 2. I have teaching content on how to view the Law and how we can read and learn from it in the light of Christ here. (2 video playlist) kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6CqfH17erOhncU I also have a series dealing with the Hebrew Roots Movement (who teach that we should all obey the Law of Moses today) here kzbin.info/aero/PLZ3iRMLYFlHuOD_BytSxbejzCnGPOcgFw (4 video playlist)

KJV Psalms 1 1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. We are just as dependent upon Christ, in order to live a holy life, as is the branch upon the parent stock for growth and fruitfulness. Apart from Him we have no life. We have no power to resist temptation or to grow in grace and holiness. Abiding in Him, we may flourish. Drawing our life from Him, we will not wither nor be fruitless. We will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water. Abiding in Christ. KJV John 15 Jesus Is the Vine 1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. We don't keep the commandments of God to be saved, we keep the commandments of God because we are saved and abiding in Christ. KJV 2 Corinthians 13 5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? The good tree will produce good fruit. If the fruit is unpalatable and worthless, the tree is evil. So the fruit borne in the life testifies as to the condition of the heart and the excellence of the character. Good works can never purchase salvation, but they are an evidence of the faith that acts by love and purifies the soul. And though the eternal reward is not bestowed because of our merit, yet it will be in proportion to the work that has been done through the grace of Christ.. KJV Psalms 139 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: 24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. God bless

Nathan, that is interesting. Can you elaborate a little on this for an ignorant person such as myself, brother? I have never fully understood Calvanism. Thanks.

[@nathanburgett1599]

@@stephenreid7043 That's a long conversation. Its also known as reformed theology. I can send a link with a basic summary of the 5 points that encapsulates their tradition. Basicly, the earlt church fought agaisnt the stoics, who believed in natural determinism. They also fought against the Gnostics who believed in divine determinism. For like 300 years that was the case. Until after chritianity was made legal during the time of constantine. Which i think caused vigilance to drop exponentially. Later Augustine, who was a manichean gnostic for 10 years, started teaching what they always had on this subject. Then at the end of his life he began to bring in gnostic ideas like original sin, meaning inherited guilt and thus inability to believe, and divine determinism. His ideas are what John calvin based his entire institutes on. Quoting him like every 3 pages at least. A great book I'd recommend it Your interested in the history and scripture and philisophy of it is, "what love is this?" By dave hunt. I will send the short video though. I hope that helps answer your question some. So in every place that matters they hold their counsels and their traditions as what the bible says. They use their own minds and natural man to understand the word of God. Their mind is not set on the Spirit and Truth. God says for instance i desire all to come to repetance and faith. They say no God elected who he wants in eternity past. God says he made attonement for every person. They say no he only died for the elect. God says humble yourself and i will lift you up. They say no, no one can humble themselves willingly but God irresistibly humbles those he's chosen. I could go on and explain the fruit of things like Westminster that is their go to confession. Westminister was a church state union like rome, used to agree with each other then imprison or kill those who weren't calvinists. Then they celebrate what these people think God is like? Paul explains this stuff takes minds captive so they really can't see it. Col2:8 See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ. I was a Calvinist and my desire is for their good but also for who God and Jesus really is. As they raise these lofty ideas against the knowledge of God they nullify the message and gospel. Holding as commands the traditions made by natural man. Conversely paul tells us in 1 cor 2 that as we set our mind on the Spirit and mature, the Spirit himself reveals the deep things of God. Hope it's helpful. Thanks for asking. ❤☺

[@jeremywhann1035]

Mike, first of all I love your teaching and totally agree with all you said in this video. The Sabbath is an issue that has become a real blessing in my life and one that I would love others to come into the goodness of. My Saviour is 'Lord of the Sabbath' and strangely I have heard that used as a reason not to observe it. The big question, which I'm sure you've addressed before, is why do we observe Sunday rather than the seventh day, Saturday? The only answer I can come up with is found in Mark 7v8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men . If it is not found in scripture it is a tradition of man. A little research shows the pagan influence on the day, the clue being in the name..SUNday. This is a topic no-one I know wants to seriously discuss because in our mainstream churches we are too far invested in what we presently practise. For most, I don't think they have even thought about it. And it's not difficult, it was made for our benefit. A day of rest, no buying and selling. What could be hard about that? I'd love to hear your views on the issue as I respect the authority you give to scripture and your logical and methodical method of study. Maybe I'm missing something but it sure doesn't feel like it. Isaiah 56 v 2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.

[@jaygee2187]

Jeremy Whann I asked that same question when I was young; the response I was given is that we worship in the first day of the week because Jesus rose from the dead on the first day of the week, and this has some new covenant significance that I didn’t understand. Also, because the saints gathered together on the first day of the week to break bread and give alms to the poor. More than likely, the early church no longer found themselves welcome at the synagogues so they worshipped in homes, but seeing as many of the early Christians still had Jewish roots and wanted to keep their Jewishness as well, they probably had some sort of compromise with their gentile brethren and agreed to meet on the first day of the week before work so that the Jewish Christians wouldn’t come into conflict with their families and communities. Constantine may have played a role in codifying Sunday worship, with the amalgamation of Pagan and Christian practices, mixing them together to maintain religious peace.

[@jeremywhann1035]

@@jaygee2187 I've heard those reasons before but did man have any right to change Gods commandment, nullifying the word of God? Seem to fit with Mark 7v9 Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Bottom line is I can't find it in scripture, not a single verse that would warrant the change.

[@jaygee2187]

Jeremy Whann I’ll give you my thoughts; you can accept or reject them. The sabbath day worship was for the Hebrew in their own land wherein Gods law was not just a matter of obedience, but also of running a nation. After the Jewish national rejection of their messiah in the middle of Acts, the gospel was sent to the gentiles, who had no law, no nation under God, no elect status that included Gods system of governance. Many were slaves, working seven days a week. Theirs sabbath, their rest, was found in Christ. There is no indication that the sabbath day was changed to Sunday, but there is also no indication that the OT commandment was still to be enforced upon NT gentile believers.

Matthew 12:8 - For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.” Luke 4:16 - And He came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up for to read. Hebrews 4:9 - There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. (The Sabbath) Luke 14:1 - Now it happened, as He went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees to eat bread on the Sabbath, that they watched Him closely. Luke 23:56 - And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the Sabbath day according to the commandment. Rev 22:14 - Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.

It’s interesting how Paul approaches this: He has just commanded that we should not eat food offered unto idols, for the earth is Gods. But then he goes on to say that if you’re invited to eat at the home of unbeliever, don’t ask whether or not the food has been offered to idols, just eat it.

Jesus is our salvation and because of the salvation Jesus gave us through his blood, we obey which means we observe and keep the law out of love not out of obligation. Keeping the law does not save us only Jesus can save us and has saved us but we know through Jesus's teachings that he wants us to obey and follow him, Jesus kept the law and explained it to us as well throughout the new testament. We can not obey the law through our own strength but only through God's strength. How do you show someone you love them? by doing things that brings them happiness, God tells you and Jesus shows you through his life and conduct how to bring happiness to God and he also told you what behaviour does not bring God happyness. The sabbath existed before the law was put in place Genies 2:2-3 says that he finished his work and on the seventh day he rested and God blessed the seventh day and made it holy because it was the day he finished his work of creation. Jesus says the sabbath was made for man not man for the sabbath also it says in scripture that the sabbath was the sign or mark between God and his people to show they are his and he is their God. Revelations even talks about the sabbath as well. All the first century Christians kept the sabbath and the sabbath never changes in the bible from Saturday to Sunday it was the catholic church that changed the day.

To comment on your question, "how many Jews have sat in the cold because they forgot to prepare for sabbath?"... It is a sin to foget to prepare for sabbath because God commands us to "remember the sabbath" and this means to prepare in advance and this is why friday is called preparation day (even in the Gospels). Remember the man who went out on the sabbath day to gather sticks in the Book of Numbers? God had him stoned and this is because the man did not take God seriously about remembering the sabbath, to prepare for it. It wasn't that he just messed up and forgot, it was that he did not take God seriously. Preparing for sabbath is something we learn as a way of life, it becomes a habit, just like keeping all of the commandments becomes a habit or way of life. Once in a while we mess up and must repent and this is where grace comes in, we are covered by the blood of Yeshua the Lamb of God, just like in ancient Israel we were covered by the blood of the literal lamb. However I will say that it is honorable to choose suffering over sinning, so if one fails to prepare then going without is a righteous decision. So sitting in the cold rather than building a fire would be honorable, except if it is dangerously cold, in which case one would just have to build a fire and repent for not preparing.

Hi Taylor! I came across your post. I understand you. I want to let you know that you're not alone. The love of God is there for you. Many years ago I used to date a Christian girl I love her for her values, but I was not not a Christian. I used to make fun of her sometimes I was mean , I got to the point that I cheated on her. She used to pray for me a lot and I will laugh at it. Eventually we had a baby but that wasn't enough to change me. One day my wife walk off on me and divorce me. I lost my house I lost my job and then after she left God came to my life. And when God came to my life I fell down on my knees and cry and cry and cry and cry so much. Because I realized that I was blind and now I can see... Spiritually. I repented and I try to gain her trust but it was too late. Through the pain of the divorce I learned how holy is marriage. I understood the significance of family I understood the sacrifice on the cross. You going through this at 23 I was 35! 😩. Yep a grown-up man. Please you need to be connected to a body you need to go to church and get a good group of friends people that would be your pillars of faith. No matter what happens with this be faithful to God trust his wisdom. There is a lot to learn not only as a relationship or also as a human as a woman as a Christian. To this day I think my ex-wife for leading me to Jesus. Even though I lost my home and my family, my heart belongs to God and not pain not suffering not defeat. My divorce was the consequences of sin. And I learned my lesson. Be faithful to the Lord ,and wait ,that's the hardest. But you on the right path. God bless you and I'll be praying for. There's a book called the five languages of love. It's a very good broken help you to develop a good relationship with your kids. And eventually wear your husband . I will be praying for you . And you're not alone!!!! God is with you. ;

It doesnt make sense. Jesus said he was Gods son and they(pharisees) say he was making himself equal to God by saying that. My son is not my equal. I am his father and he is my son but we are not equal. The term Father and Son is used to explain the relationship. However if i owned the earth then naturally everything would go to my son so my son basically owns the earth too. But never will he be my equal. Abraham was going to sacrifice his son Issac. His son was willing to be sacrificed. That illustration shows exactly what God did for us with HIS own son. Abraham and Isaac were not equal. Jesus would only be equal to God through inheritances. Jesus said "All Authority has been GIVEN me in heaven and on earth". "GIVEN ME". They are equal only in the sense of inheritance. Jesus also said his father is greater than he is in John 14:28. Jesus also said in John 20:17 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'" Many times he said he was sent. With all that said, Jesus is our Lord and our salvation is through him now so it is right to worship him(relative worship because we dont worship him for the things he didn't do but the Father has done). That's why in the book of Revelation the acts of worship are vocalized into words so we see the proper reasons of directed worship. We should honor him (listen and obey him) just as we honor the Father.

The scriptures clearly teach that Jesus is almighty God: John 1:1,3,14; 8:58; 14:9; 20:28; Colossians 2:9; Titus 1:3; Hebrews 1:8; 2Peter 1:1. The scriptures also clearly teach that there is only one God. The Son of God IS the same God as the Father, but the person of Yahweh that became man; fully man yet fully God who did not cling to His majesty, but willfully emptied Himself for death on the cross (Philippians 2:5-8). As the man Jesus He was subordinate to the Father just as all men are, but also as one of the three persons of Yahweh He willfully submits to the Father although in power and substance He is equal in every respect, because He's the same. When Isaiah saw the glory of the Lord in Isaiah 6:1-2, it was Jesus who he was beholding, as John lets us know in John 12:41; also Psalm 102:25-27 speaks of Yahweh, but the very same passage is applied to Jesus in Hebrews 1:10-12, because Jesus IS Yahweh.

Most people think of pharisees and liberals as opposites, but really on the core mistake they're exactly the same. Because we're not doing a test. We're fighting a war. The pharisee says "I'm doing great against sin, so I don't have to fight it." The liberal says "I cannot win against sin, so I don't have to fight it." The reasoning is opposite, but the mistake is the identical. Both are trying to avoid the painful process of repentance.

[@The-End-is-coming]

So I am an SDA, and I used to be really legalistic about keeping the Sabbath: following all the stuff attached to it in the Mosaic law. But then I realized that I wasn't being consistent when I believed we didn't have to keep the other sabbaths, so I no longer keep it to the letter. However I still don't see where the seventh-day Sabbath is done away with. Wasn't it instituted on creation, just like male-female marriage centuries before Moses? We go back there when we talk about same sex marriage, so I think to be consistent we'd talk about the Sabbath too. Now I'm not saying you have to keep it to be saved, but just like baptism by immersion and following the rest of the 10 commandments, shouldn't we be doing so too? Also common misconception is we think Sunday worshippers are apostates. I don't believe it's wrong to go to church on Sunday, I even think it's good and have gone to church on Sunday myself. I believe the issue is about those that call Sunday the Sabbath. Isn't that teaching a man-made tradition, seeing that it's not instituted in the scripture?

[@godistruth3411]

We both know there is no Scripture that says the Sabbath was changed to Sunday. And God is calling His people to come out of apostasy and the Sunday Church's that follow the Papacy in the One World Religion. As an SDA, you should know this.

@@godistruth3411 I said I don't see worshipping on Sunday as a sin, second I said my issue is with calling Sunday Sabbath. If worshipping/going to church on Sunday is a sin then the disciples sinned because they met and worshipped daily. Obviously worshipping on Sunday is not wrong. My view on eschatology is that during that point in time, i.e. the first angel's message, God is clearly declaring to all people that they have to keep ALL of His commandments. If one is truly saved at that point in time, when they hear clear and obvious revelation, they will obey. If they don't, then they were never saved to begin with. I don't think the Bible teaches you can lose your salvation willy-nilly, and God's true people will listen and obey when that time comes.

Mike, remember that the weekly Sabbath instituted at creation (fourth commandment) is not the same as the annual Sabbaths (Moses' laws for the Jews). There were no Jews at creation when God instituted the first weekly Sabbath. All Christians are still to keep the weekly Sabbath, but not Moses' annual Sabbaths, feasts, and festivals. Moses' laws were a shadow of the real thing, the Ten Commandments. In other words, Moses laws were done away with, God's laws were not. Jesus always observed the Sabbath even unto death as a guide for us as Christians. He never said to stop observing it.

[@logansweet4190]

Jesus was also circumcised on the eighth day. He was literally the perfect Jew, because he was the perfect human, but when Paul talks about no one being justified by the Law do you think he meant all the Law but the fourth commandment?

No wonder that Paul called the law as the tutor for faith to come, and since faith is here, we are no longer under those laws but the law of Christ which is to love God, and to love one another, for love is the fulfillment of the Law.

Let's not work for the love of God or family, not even for our community or nation's benefit. Just stay selfish. By going to "the Law" for understanding who God is, what we need to do, find out who we are, or to know our Saviour is wrong because all that information comes from "the Law". We can't go to the Father and do what He teaches, we can only do what we think we know from the N.T.? The Father and The Son are One. We can learn and DO what we can from the O.T., Prophets, and N.T.. It is the doers of The Word that become overcomers. Stop teaching if we obey The Father we work for our salvation. There is many things we need to work for. But salvation isn't one of them. Just as those who try to teach death is part of life, to just get over it.

Just like the Pharisees were relying on the addition to the law in interpreting that the disciples shouldn't pluck and "thresh" heads of grain in their hands? Jesus was bringing them back to the actual law instead of the additions and assumptions.

God was really talking about building a fire to cook with ,not about pushing a button to light it up. 😊

Hey mike, so that's why it was changed to serve on Sunday?

[@racheljansen7656]

Ps Mike please help me to know on which day is the Sabbath. Is going to church on a Sunday the Sabbath. I want to know your view

[@scrumusic5004]

I SOOOO wish calvary chapel would hear this. Calvary does to marriage what the pharisees did to the sabbath.

That’s interesting, at the 1hr mark, a light bulb came to me. We are all to some degree self righteous especially when we make the claim that we have the correct interpretation and so on and so forth. By default, a prejudice is casted on any other viewpoint and the zeal that others have based on that viewpoint is often judged as well. “Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. And do you think this, O man, you who judge those practicing such things, and doing the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭2:1-3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Yes, in context, Paul is referring to a myriad of sinners but we all know we all fall short. So this applies to anyone. “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭3:23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ The point is, we display self righteousness when we think we know what is right without looking in the mirror first. A scripture that is harmonious to the first is: “For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:2-5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

What are your thoughts on Joshua Harris? He was a big name in Christianity - now he completely rejects it

[@michaelhalpert5518]

Saying that carrying a mat on the sabbath is a burden is like saying it’s a burden to carry your beach chair to the beach during vacation. The purpose of the beach trip is rest, not work.

[@marcwolverson1186]

Could you do a talk on Seventh Day Adventists please.

[@Daggoth13]

Hello I am a Sda and I follow Mike's vids I will also like to hear him about it some day. But honestly what's he bring in this video is accurate. Probably he not covered the Time keeping "sunset to sunset on Saturday". Because the focus was on Mark chapter, about the burden the human traditions put on the sabbath.

[@marcwolverson1186]

@@Daggoth13 I have no problem with Christians who keep the traditional sabbath, as long as they don't think they are holier or more righteous than Christians who worship on Sunday.

[@Daggoth13]

Hello @@marcwolverson1186 and God bless. we believe keeping the Saturday Sabbath is part of the 10 commandments nothing more nothing less. Any body that thinks is above another person for their convictions of course is wrong.

[@rob2250]

This is similar to the Catholic church traditions. pray for them to come out...

[@MikeWinger]

The parallels between the Catholic traditions and the Pharisaical traditions are shocking.

[@kronos01ful]

Hi ! What do you mean

[@thedisciple5115]

Mike Winger is a lot like the Catholic Church, both under the law of Sunday, both under law of eating Abomination pork. Law of keeping pagan holidays for the world. Law going against the god of Israel.

[@rob2250]

the disciple what are you talking about?

[@thedisciple5115]

@@rob2250 mike winger serves god the same way as the Catholics, men's traditions.not gods word .saying they are under them laws , was a sarcastic joke.

[@Adventlibertyvault]

Jesus never broke the Sabbath law. He taught how to keep it.. It is Lawful to do good on the Sabbath - Mark 3:4 and Matthew 12:12 History backs the Catholic Church on this statement. Read up on Constantine The Great and discover an attempt to changer solemnity of Sabbath to Sunday. “But you may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we never sanctify" - Faith of our Fathers, Cardinal Gibbons p.72

[@Daggoth13]

Thank you for your ministry and I really enjoy your videos. What is the purpose of the 4 commandments. In my case y keep the Saturday Sabbath "a completed sunset to sunset. In recognition that God is my creator and the Creator of all. Jesus culminate He's redemption work on Friday and rest the Sabbath day. Agree that traditions buried the intention of God for the Sabbath. But the intention of God to us retirement, One day a week is a beautiful thing

[@xrendezv0usx]

It was a violation of the Sabbath because they were gathering food, which is considered "work" according to Torah (see the example given to Israel by the Lord straight out of Egypt, when they were to gather mana for 6 days and rest on the 7th ). But it was lawful/ not a sin for the same reason that David was allowed to eat the showbread, which was not lawful for him to eat. That is, David was the Lord's 'anointed' which means if God puts it on his heart it is lawful. The Son of Man is the Lord of the Sabbath. Which means that if you are alive in Christ and His Words are alive in you, all is lawful according to your conscience. Like eating pork, or doing labor on the Sabbath, or celebrating Christmas. As it is written: "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath"

[@olgaburgos7780]

How Easley men change things to their own convenience , traditions that they enjoy and it doesn’t matter if they are good for all, they even change time back and forth, remove or add days to the year calendar, and Saturday changed for Sunday to do as they please. Oh! Foolish men! Even God’s Grace for salvation has been polluted with our works added to it. Repent and read the truths and commands of God’s that lead to salvation in Him.

[@jacobhargiss9909]

no one changed saturday for sunday. christians just chose to gather on sundays for worship because that is the day that Christ was resurrected. the sabbath had nothing to do with it.

[@laurairlbeck916]

About the apostles being accused of working when they were harvesting grains to eat as they walked along: if that is considered work, what about the work it takes to bring a utensil up to your mouth as you are eating? Were they not allowed to feed their animals on the Sabbath? Seems like you could take any little activity and call it work.

[@tieskedh]

Does Mark 3:4 make both actions active: doing something, but ignoring also?

[@claire9702]

We are not under the law but no one has a problem with obeying the other nine, why not the fourth too? A bit inconvenient for you I guess.

[@honestman3387]

The Bible covers every issue. [speaking to libralism] An example is tatoos. the Bible says have no markings of the flesh. Thats tatooing, burning, piercing {one exception is when a jew would choose to be a lifelong servant to another family, and that at the end of his debt servitude, and that because he was treated so well, i.e. the awl through the nose. Another slight exception would be the mark that God put on Cain as a manslayer( and this also involves the spirit of the avenger of blood, how would others know who he was or what he had done]. Even in the secular world, molestation of the body with tatoos, or piercings, was a sign of subjegation as property or a prisoner, or subjagation to a diety or another man. It makes no sense whatsoever that one would ever willingly forfeit the defense of his body. The body is God's temple. An Christ we are king-priest in th eorder of Malkezadek. Though we are to come as we are to Christ, we are not to ever stay the same. This doesn't mean to reject someone who already has them, but it certainly is a clear command never to condone it. Are you allowed to permanently deface/ decorate the Temple of God with their own decor. The decor of the Temple was very specifically God given. It is a value thing. If you really valued yourself according to Scripture/God's value of you, you would never even entertain the thought of covering His handiwork with that of man. That was one example. there are many reasons why certain things are popular in society, and none of those reasons involve freedom. They involve expression, but not that of God; and since we are made in His image, we are to be His expression, and in Christ, we are to be His body. Peace (prosperity, wisdom, revelation, expansion, room, not crowded by the enemy {not in mentallity, concern, etc.} unto you in Jesus. And I encourage you to check out Exodus 19 and our identity in Christ, since your video actually concerned the believer's identity as both king and priest, therefore no laws were broken in Spirit.
