People who preach obedience to commands are like the Jews in the wilderness, when God said go in occupy the promise land they refused to go, they listened to the bad report. So God ordered them back into the wilderness of sin. Now when God ordered them back they decided they would after all go in and claim their inheritance.
How can you ever put down people having to obey when the people who did not obey are the ones who did not see the promised land?
Joshua 5:6 The Israelites had moved about in the wilderness forty years until all the men who were of military age when they left Egypt had died, since they had not obeyed the LORD. For the LORD had sworn to them that they would not see the land he had solemnly promised their ancestors to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Whatever God tells them they disobey.
So these folks, when they were sinners under the law they disobeyed the law, indeed they were incapable of obedience. So God graciously showed them the faith way to righteousness, salvation by simple faith in Christ which sets us FREE from all the things which the law could not....but now they insist on being placed once more under the law.
I can hardly believe what you are saying. You are saying that the people did not obey---so then God said they only had to have faith in Christ, you say!
You are as one in the wilderness. You do not maintain any discussion with me personally, I believe because you cannot maintain any discussion with me personally.
Whatever God tells them they disobey. You can tell it is a snare of the devil because that is all they can say "obey, obey, obey" they are like folks caught on a nail. They can't go on in the things of God, they do not grow in grace and knowledge, learning precious doctrines.
God nailed the rules and regulations to the cross. God did NOT NAIL OBEY TO THE CROSS.
The devil has them where he can flog them on every failure, and they in turn are looking for others to flog. And they wonder why we will have none of it.
If you do right, who is going to hurt you?
1 Peter 3:13 Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?
Titus 2:14
who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.
We are into something more precious and wonderful than that, we are walking with the King.
There is nothing if you are not obeying the Word.
