Excellent discussion as always!! ❤🙏📖🎧

[@nothingbutthetruth613]

So let's just investigate the beginning of this story. The nt claims that the Pharisees were hypocrites and not following the laws which they knew were binding but they didn't care. Then the story continues that they were busy creating "burdens" on top of the law which were not necessary. How does anyone understand this? If they didn't care about the laws, what gain would they have by adding on to the laws? If anything, they should be taking laws away.

You guys are fire for God, I love this! Aaron may be a bit fast, or sharper than me, but somehow I can follow the lesson. Love and prayers.

[@cindyfulfer5014]

Fellas, excellent talk about traditions of man and how they can become law. My question for us coc folk is .......... what traditions do we hold on to as commands of God? We love to point fingers at others but don't like to look at ourselves.

[@bryanroberts9920]

When Jesus was on the cross he said "it was finished". Trying to obey a list of rules will never bring righteousness. Let Jesus save you and quit trying to save yourselves.

[@theeternalsbeliever1779]

The inherent problem with your theology is that Jesus clearly spent Matt. 5-7 putting the responsibility on the Christian to strive towards moral perfection. The idea that Jesus saves ppl through mental accepting His existence is as ridiculous as it is unbiblical.

[@bryanroberts9920]

@@theeternalsbeliever1779 Yes sir we should strive for perfection and should live a holy and righteous lifestyle. With that being said , apart from the grace of God no man will enter into his kingdom. "For by GRACE are you saved, and not of works lest any man should boast"...... Jesus said "He was the way" in John 14. You will not be able to save yourself. If you could Jesus would have never gone to the cross.....

Good video !!! This is a topic that many struggle with myself included.

[@hectorcoria3650]

On 14:40, you will have the opposition of those who will pick and choose that grace covers ones ignorance.

[@hectorcoria3650]

On segment 2:30, I am not quite clear what you are saying about that particular part of scripture. Can you replace it a different way to better understand what you just said on that particular segment of this video? Really want to know what that part of scripture Means. Thank you

[@Texasp12]

Thank you about tradition vs man made tradition.

[@JohnStark72]

Scripture seems to imply that legalism involves trying to adhere 100% to Mosaic law with the expectation that you will be saved through that.

[@JohnStark72]

@@christrescuedme2182 Again, you wish to expound online at length with implications & accusations, but refuse to meet face-to-face. Of what are you afraid?

[@theeternalsbeliever1779]

The biblical definition of legalism is demanding that someone does something that isn't required by biblical doctrines. The NT clearly conveys the message in passages like Matt. 5:17-20 and 2 Pet. 3:14 that striving towards moral perfection is a command and not a suggestion, so that isn't legalism.

[@ifiok-dan7926]

Why can't women be allowed to pray or prophecy during the gathering of the saints? Kindly address this question considering married women, unmarried and the windowed.

[@sandyshaw1791]

I left a church because of some of their traditions that are found in the Bible but not a law & served no purpose for todays Christian, like washing of feet, one room was for men & one for woman for this. I also noticed what you said you were eating. Is there restrictions on the foods we eat??? I don’t believe there are any. When the sheet was torn, I think this was a 2 fold vision. 1 to allow unclean people in to hear the gospel & 2, to allow all animals, clean & unclean, to be eaten. I enjoyed the entire talk.❤️✝️❤️

[@thevirtuouswife]

Hi, we don't have the same food laws as old Israel did. However, this was carried over for us: Acts 15:20 & 29; 21:25. Since we should abstain from things strangled and blood, (as well as pollution of idols, and fornication) this would show that food prep is important and we should not eat "rare" or uncooked meat as it still has the blood. These verses take it back before the law of Moses like Jesus did with marriage, divorce, and remarriage. Genesis 9:3-4. Sadly, we would never argue against the fornication and idol portion but because we will reconcile why we can eat a rare steak, we ignore this. But the scripture for this is clear. But at least we can eat all meat, just cook it thoroughly.

[@sandyshaw1791]

@@thevirtuouswife Meat with its blood is referring to animals that are not properly bled, & rare meat is meat that has been offered to idols, not the way it’s cooked. Thank you for replying but doesn’t really answer my question.❤️✝️❤️

[@thevirtuouswife]

@@sandyshaw1791 When I state "rare" it's not in relation to idols but meat that still has blood in it (e.g. rare, medium rare, or full raw). So, based on the scriptures you shouldn't eat anything that is not bled properly, still raw (as it contains blood), food in service during acts of idol worship (or have anything to do with idol worship to begin with), nor should you fornicate. We can accept it not. But I gave the verses for context, as you simply asked were there any restrictions on food today; these are the only ones. Have a great day😊.

[@sandyshaw1791]

@@thevirtuouswife I know what you meant. It doesn’t matter how well an animal is bled there’s always going to be some red liquid in the meat but that’s not blood in its truest form. I eat medium rare steak & find nothing wrong with that. Enough said on this subject. 😘

[@theeternalsbeliever1779]

​@@thevirtuouswife It is false to argue that the dietary law isn't authoritative anymore when Lev. 11 shows God saying that eating unclean meat is an abomination, and there is literally no biblical precedent for God ever changing His position on something once it was given that label.

[@speakeasyarchives8764]

what is legalism? the COC!

[@glenobryant3035]

The sinners prayer is in John 9:31and it was common knowledge in the apostles time. The blind man that was healed was being questioned and he states in John 9:31: now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, he hears him. So, how could a sinner get salvation, if GOD isn't listening? Then wouldn't you have to do GOD's will to be a worshipper?

[@brianbrumley6441]

Sushi? Love you guys, but, really?

[@numbers22_28]

I still don't see the Bible using the word or even concept, "legalism". It is a word people who do not know scripture, use, often as an ignorant accusation. I won't use it.

[@numbers22_28]

@@christrescuedme2182 You are so dishonest. I remember you now, the one who is ashamed of their assembly, can't name it. Where did I say I "hate the word legalism"? It is just a word.

[@numbers22_28]

@@christrescuedme2182 1. You ARE a liar because you say I hate a word and them instead of addressing that you change the subject. 2. The Holy Spirit has nothing to do with the disobedient, (as in unsaved such as yourself). 3. The Holy Spirit wants liars to repent, and if He did indwell anyone it would not be the disobedient. 4. You apparently have no idea about the Lord's church or its organization. You are very confused and dishonest!

@@christrescuedme2182 Can't deal with your own reality, very sad. Why would I care what a demonstrated liar wants. God has His back turned to you and I am beginning to understand why you are ashamed of assembling with anyone. You probably can't find anyone who will have anything to do with you. Proverbs 6:16-19 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, A LYING TONGUE, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
