Why does the Scripture say committing one sin makes you guilty of all? James 2:10

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , ,
Someone asked: “Why does the Scripture say that committing one sin makes you guilty of all?” (James 2:10) What alternative exists that makes one “right” with our Holy Creator?

Comment,

James 2:10 is complimented by Galatians 3:10 where we learn that the codified law (Sinai – Moses), in order to attain righteousness (a right standing) with the Father through law-keeping, the law must be kept, obeyed, in absolute perfection (James 2:10) because Elohim is Perfect in Holiness and Righteousness and NOTHING impure will ever enter the Kingdom (Rev 21:27); herein lies the human conundrum, everyone born of Adam’s genome has sinned and fallen short of Elohim’s standard of perfection (Romans 5:12; 3:23).

Therefore, anyone who seeks eternal covenant relationship with Elohim through law-keeping is under a “curse” (Galatians 3:10) because the law only defines our culpability but provides no form of reconciliation with the Father through atonement as mandated by Leviticus 17:11 (Romans 3:20); therefore, the Father, in His mercy and compassion and grace, offers us the righteousness- sinless perfection of His Son, Jesus Christ; this righteousness apart from the law (Romans 3:21); a gifted/imputed righteousness earned for us by Jesus’ perfection is imputed-gifted into and over our lives by faith in Jesus as our Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:21); a divine gifting of righteousness as first pictured in Genesis 3:21 which is an act of pure grace (unmerited favor we did NOT earn) actuated through the simplicity of faith-trust-belief that Jesus is Messiah who died to atone for our sin-debt owed the Father, a sin-debt we could never pay our self through vain acts of obedience to a law, rule, day or diet.

As a result of this gifted-imputed righteousness of Messiah Jesus over our life through faith in Jesus as our Messiah, the Father then agrees, by New Covenant promise, to forgive-forget our sin, eternally (Hebrews 8:12), thereby reconciling fallen humanity back to Himself as we are made “positionally right” with Elohim via New Covenant promise; then, the Father endows the faithful in Jesus with the indwelling Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13-14) who continues a good work within the redeemed via daily sanctification (Galatians 5:16) where the Spirit enlivens the Spiritual Law written upon the human heart (Romans 2:14-15; 8:2) and mates that Spiritual Law with a redeemed conscience i.e. “the new creation” in Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:17) and the Spirit produces divine “fruit” (Galatians 5:16-23) through the redeemed in Jesus, fruit that fulfills all law, both codified and spiritual; in this, there is eternal peace with Elohim (Romans 5:1).

Therefore, James 2:10 testifies that righteousness (a right standing) with Elohim (Genesis 1:1) is not possible through the law or vain attempts to obey same but that righteousness with Elohim can only manifest through faith in the “Righteous One,” Jesus our Messiah, and this righteousness is gifted-imputed by New Covenant promise and said righteousness cannot be earned through self-righteousness and anyone who seeks covenant with Elohim through self-righteousness is “cursed” (Galatians 3:10).

Concerning “bondage”to Sinai and “freedom” through the Holy Spirit (Romans 7:6)

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , ,
Concerning those in bondage to Sinai and Moses…there is freedom and life in Christianity; this, through faith in Jesus and daily sanctification via the indwelling Holy Spirit (Romans 6:14; 7:6)…

Confession,

As a Christian, I know Sinai was given solely to Israel’s children for sanctification and eschatological purposes and I know that Sinai is but a mere fragment of my Lord’s comprehensive Spiritual Law that has been extant as an arbiter of free will subsequent the creation of the angels; therefore, I find that in the New Covenant, I’m not under or obligated to Sinai or Moses’ letters but I’m under grace (Romans 6:14) and I don’t live my life pursuing letters etched in stone or scratched upon parchment but I walk daily in sanctification via the indwelling Holy Spirit who enlivens the spiritual law written upon my heart (Romans 2:15-16; 8:2) and mates that law with a redeemed conscience (2 Corinthians 5:17) given through my faith in Jesus and the Spirit produces divine “fruit” (Galatians 5:16-23) through me that fulfills all law, eternally; therefore, I do NOT live daily thinking about, enslaved to or seeking obedience to Sinai or Moses but I live by the Spirit’s guidance and He walks me daily in a manner that glorifies the Father; in this, there is intimacy and divine peace (Romans 5:1).

Perhaps, one day, if you find, accept, receive, Jesus as your Messiah and receive the Holy Spirit as Guarantor of that New Covenant relationship (John 3; Ephesians 1:13-14), you will understand these words and live by the Spirit and not in bondage to letters that only condemn and curse you void atonement (Romans 3:20; Galatians 3:10; 2:16).

Questions for the Loud Biker, Auto, Truck, thugs=bullies destroying daily quality of life…

motorcycles

Loud Motorcycles are abusive…when did a man or woman acquire the “right” or “privilege” to abuse children, the elderly, the handicapped, with illegal motor vehicle noise by operating an illegally equipped, illegally LOUD, motorcycle, auto, truck, on our public roadways?

When did it become acceptable and fashionable to destroy the quality of life of thousands of families, daily, for one’s own selfish, narcissistic, pleasure? Who invited you, LOUD biker thug, into our home, places of work and worship?

Concerning Israel v. Palestine and the Palestinian Sympathizers…a word of caution…

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , ,
Concerning the current conflict between Israel’s IDF and Palestine’s “HAMAS” – Iran’s-Yemen’s Houthis – Lebanon’s “Hezbollah” // A response to the Palestinian sympathizers…

Israel was not “founded” in 1948…it’s been Israel’s land since Abraham…they just came “home” in response to the “Never Again” movement.

Israel is not the resultant of terrorism but of Elohim’s sovereign choice concerning His eschatological plan for Time and Eternity. Elohim’s covenant with Abraham concerning the Land of Israel was unconditional, meaning that the Land’s presence and its purposes are not contingent upon Israel’s faithfulness but upon Elohim’s sovereignty and His foreordained decision to save a “remnant” of Israel’s children through the Great Tribulation and initiate His Millennial Kingdom there where Messiah Yeshua will reign for 1000-years prior to the Judgement of Satan and the rebellious of humanity in Hell – an all consuming fire that will purify this Earth in preparation for the New Earth and a New Heaven as foundational to the New Jerusalem (Revelation 20-22).

That Jewish remnant that endures through the Tribulation era, those proselytized by the 144,000 sanctified Jewish witnesses from the 12-Tribes (Rev 7), will serve Yeshua in the Millennial Kingdom and they will believe in Yeshua and they will be the “redeemed” remnant spoken of by Isaiah, reiterated by Paul (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27).

The current war between Israel’s IDF and HAMAS, Iran’s Islamic proxies, Yemen’s Houthis, Lebanon’s Hezbollah, is nothing more than a physical manifestation of the Kingdom War between Elohim v. Satan having manifest within the Realm of Time. Israel remains Elohim’s representatives in the Land given Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and Islam is Satan’s representative through Allah via Muhammad via Ishmael via Hagar.

Careful that you not be found on the wrong side of History.

Concerning the “Serpent” in Genesis 3 and what Eve observed, her obsession-obedience to same.

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , , , ,
Concerning the “Serpent” in Genesis 3 and what Eve observed and her obsession and obedience to same,

Those who serve Satan are his “seed” or offspring (Genesis 3:15), they are his children, this includes fallen angels (demons) and the rebellious of humanity; that is, those angels who allied with Satan in the Great Kingdom War and those who ally with Satan within the Realm of Time through their rejection of Elohim’s will (John 6:29; John 8:44).

Satan was NEVER a literal serpent but the Holy Spirit uses the serpent as a metaphor for Satan in the Genesis Narrative as Satan’s attributes e.g., conniving-subtle-deadly are like those of the serpent. If you desire to know what Eve observed in Eden and why she was so enamored by Satan, the Holy Spirit provides us with Satan’s incredibly attractive physiological attributes in Ezekiel 28 and Jesus explains who are the “offspring” or “seed” of Satan in John 8.

America’s fall from grace…

Liberal Ideology, , ,

A Nation decays and its foundations atrophy when its youth are demonically deceived by the wicked and unsustainable ideological “values” of the Progressive; the Democrat; the Marxist; the Secular Humanist; the Atheist; the sexually perverse espousing LGBTQ deception in public schools, movies, music, literature; the bloody Abortionist; therefore, America is dying in immoral filth as three-generations of American youth have been systematically, methodically, demonically, brainwashed by the wicked in our public institutions while America’s Churches and America’s Dads have stood by and done absolutely NOTHING; therefore, we have no one to blame but ourselves.

Israel v. Palestine (HAMAS) – Who is Allah and what are His objectives via Islam?

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , , ,
Concerning the political/ideological/theological chasm existing between those who support the Nation of Israel and those who support Palestine/Gaza/HAMAS (Islam)…

For the Record concerning the current conflict between Israel v. Palestine (HAMAS), Lebanon (Hezbollah), Iran (their terrorist, Islamic proxies), Yemen (Houthis) and the political-ideological divide existing within the United States…KNOW YOUR ENEMY!

Concerning Islam,

The demonic root of Palestine’s HAMAS; Lebanon’s Hezbollah; Iran’s other terrorist proxies; Yemen’s Houthis, is the religious cult of Islam. Islam’s “Allah” is Satan masquerading as an angel of light via the Arabic moon god. Islam was founded by a 7th-Century nomadic demon-possessed pedophile murdering thief named Muhammad who plagiarized the Torah to construct the Quran. Islam is a demonic cult of death.

Islam’s root is the act of adultery between Abraham and Hagar producing the “wild ass” of a man named Ishmael, the father of the Islmaelites, who are the progenitor of the false prophet, Muhammad. Islam is Satan’s presence within the Realm of Time and physics.

Concerning Allah’s (Satan’s) objectives,

Allah’s (Satan’s) objective is the complete annihilation of Israel’s children and the nullification of the unconditional property covenant Elohim entered into with Abraham (Genesis 12:1-3; Genesis 13:15) as the “Land of Israel” is essential eschatological real estate relevant to the introduction of the Messiah whose primary purpose for entering the Realm of Time was “to destroy the works of the Devil (Allah)” (1 John 3:8b) via a divine battle strategy known as the Gospel of Grace which was first pictured in Genesis 3:21 but ordained “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-10).

Messiah’s purpose for entering the Realm of Time,

Messiah entered the Realm of Time due to an unfathomable angelic rebellion, a rebellion orchestrated by Satan-Allah, that manifest in the Kingdom of Elohim, a rebellion that necessitated a repository for that Kingdom War apart from the Kingdom which under girded the initiation of the Genesis Creation Narrative; this, as Elohim endeavors to restore order and peace to His Kingdom while simultaneously maintaining volitional love with His cherished angelic creation as He deals with the wiles of the Devil via selfless love and sacrifice via the Gospel.

Allah’s obsession with Israel,

Allah’s obsession with the children of Israel and the Land of Israel concerns Satan’s desire to make Elohim a liar concerning Elohim’s divine, sovereign, promises beginning with Genesis 3:15-21, continuing through Noah, Shem, Abraham; the Hebrew Tribes, Sinai, through Judah, through the prophets, through Messiah into the Age of Grace; the Crucifixion; the Gospel and Great Commission; the New Covenant Church; the Tribulation; the Millennial Kingdom; the judgment of Satan, the Beast, the False prophet, the fallen-rebellious angels/demons interned in Hell, forever; the Judgment of the Condemned intertwined with the purification of the Earth by fire; the creation of a New Heaven and a New Earth and ultimately the eternal placement of the New Jerusalem where the redeemed in Messiah will serve Him in resurrected bodies, forever.

Allah’s tactics,

Allah-Satan has pursued his goal of proving Elohim a liar through the failures and demonic compromise of the Adamic/Noahic generations resulting in the annihilation of humanity save eight; the failures of Israel’s children to honor Elohim’s covenants, their unbelief/rejection of Messiah, their unfaithfulness with Baal/Molech.

Allah-Satan sought to defile/deter the Messiah through demonic temptation and the horrors of Roman Crucifixion; Allah-Satan was integral to Herod’s slaughter of innocence to murder the Messiah; Allah-Satan assumed he had won victory at Golgotha; Allah-Satan inspired Titus-the 10th-Roman Legion’s destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD; Allah-Satan conspired with Hitler concerning “The Final Solution” and the Jewish Holocaust; Allah-Satan, through his demons, possesses the heart, soul, mind, of every Islamist whose obsessive-compulsive objective in life is the death of every Israeli man, woman and child and the custody of Israel’s property into the hands of Allah’s servants, a Land bordered by the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. Allah’s objective through Islam is the death of anyone who rejects the false prophet Muhammad and his demonic religion of Islam.

Spiritual-Political ramifications of Allah’s presence in Time and Politics, today…The United States…

As we witness the unfathomable rise and presence of antisemitism in the United States and around the World, understand that all we see in the conflict between Israel’s IDF and the armies of Islam is SPIRITUAL in nature; this conflict is nothing more than a physical manifestation of the ongoing Spiritual conflict between good v. evil, Elohim v. Satan.

Also, know that every man and woman who supports the armies of Islam, whether they be represented by Palestine – Jordan – Iran – Lebanon – Yemen or any other Nation – State throughout the World, these are servants of Satan. This is why those in the United States who march for Palestine supporting the terrorist organization of HAMAS and express fervent hatred for Israel; these, overwhelmingly belong to a Political Party that advocates for the murder of babies in the womb; the uncensored and undeterred expansion of sexual perversion throughout American society via LGBTQ objectives which specifically target America’s children and seek the destruction of the Biblical family unit (Allah loathes the Biblical family); this is why Marxism and Progressivism and Abortion and BLM and ANTIFA and DEI and reverse discrimination AKA Affirmative Action mandates, are worshiped like gods among those who identify with the Democrat-Progressive-Marxist-Secular Humanist Party of the United States; therefore, know your enemy.

You will know them by their fruits (Matthew 7:15-20). Elohim is victorious through Messiah Jesus (Revelation 5:5).

Why do Israel’s children still try to keep the Commandments for righteousness with Elohim?

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
Question was asked in a religious forum “…why [are] these people of Israel still keeping the ten commandments even though the covenant was faulted[?]”

Explanation,

Israel’s children rejected Messiah Yeshua sent to them (Matthew 15:24) and chose self-righteousness through law-keeping (Torah Law-Sinai-Moses) as opposed to faith in the One who kept the Law for us (Matthew 5:17) and offers us His righteousness imputed-gifted into and over our lives by faith in Him as Messiah; this, in exchange for our sin via New Covenant promise (2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 8:7); therefore, Israel has stumbled over the Stumbling Stone laid in Zion (Romans 9:32); therefore, only a remnant of Israel’s children will escape the “second death” in Hell due unbelief (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27; Rev 20:11-15); for this error, Israel’s children have been placed under Judgment, the Gospel taken from them and given to the Gentiles until the fullness of the Gentiles have entered the Kingdom of Elohim (Romans 11:25). This divine reality is relevant and observable to this very day. Yeshua is the only Way to life in the Kingdom of Elohim and this divine reality is an immutable Truth for Jew, Israelite, Gentile (John 14:6).

30 What shall we say, then That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, a righteousness that is by faith; 31 but that Israel who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness did not succeed in reaching that law. 32 Why Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone, 33 as it is.

Sinless Christianity – Tongues – Water Baptism for Salvation – Satan’s Portal’s via Charismata…be aware…

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , , , ,
Satan’s portal into Christianity via Charismata, factions of Pentecostalism and other works cults via false doctrines, be aware and know your enemy…

Discussion,

Satan is alive and well in these FB religious debate forums and his sincerely deceived servants vomit the Devil’s agenda with a stubborn heart and corrupted theology that potentially destroys the Christian walk of the naïve and the unlearned who are defenseless to the tantalizing words of wickedness and religion.

Sinless Christianity – An ungodly heresy that confuses and dissuades the naïve…

I am amazed at the number of well-meaning charismatic contributors in these forums who espouse the godless heresy of “sinless perfectionism” or “sinless Christianity.” The entire false premise of attaining sinless perfectionism subsequent redemption by faith is a detachment from reality, a rejection of reality, a spiritual illness absorbed into factions of Pentecostalism and other forms of silly Charismata.

The only righteousness, the only perfection, sinful humanity can attain in a body of flesh condemned to death due the Adamic sin-nature (Romans 5:12) is the sinless perfection of Jesus imputed-gifted into and over the life of the one who believes-trusts in Jesus as Messiah (1 Peter 1:18-19); this righteousness earned for us by Jesus’ blood atonement provided at Golgotha and it is NOT a righteousness of our own but a gifted righteousness by faith that initiates the Father’s covenant promise of “not guilty” based solely on the work of Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 8:12). If we say we have no sin we are a liar and the truth is not in us; hence, the need for 1 John 1:9 due 1 John 1:8; both, written to the redeemed in Jesus.

Tongues – Demonic paganism having entered the portals of a form of Christianity that insults the Spirit,

Biblical Tongues were a reality for the First-Century Church at Pentecost (Acts 2) as these actual “languages” and dialects spoken and interpreted by those having not studied were given as a sign to unbelieving Jews that the Holy Spirit, as promised integral with a New Covenant (Jeremiah 31; Ezekiel 36), had indeed manifest upon the Earth and the Spiritual gift of tongues was also given as a tool of proliferation relevant to the “Great Commission” (Matthew 28) as the Gospel was to be preached to all the Nations of the known World. With the advent of the first Canon, the Muratorian canon (circa 180AD), Biblical tongues faded away as the perfect Word had manifest and was complete in its message.

Today’s Pentecostal and Charismatic “tongues” are pagan in origin finding their genesis in the pagan temple at Delphi adjacent to Corinth and the intoxicated, gibberish, oracles of “enlightenment” provided by a pagan priestess having inhaled an intoxicating substance burning below her throne. This pagan ritual carried over into the Church at Corinth and resulted in much consternation for Paul who ultimately instructed women to remain silent in the Church services due the confusion created by the pagan practice among the women in attendance (1 Corinthians 14:33-36).

Water Baptism – a works doctrine of Pentecostalism and other forms of Charismata…

There exists only TWO-elements relevant to the Salvation “process;” that is, repentance (Luke 13:3) and faith (Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 2:16; Romans 3:21; John 3). Water Baptism is an act – work of obedience that follows salvation but water is not an element of salvation nor is water causative or regenerative (John 3; Romans 10:9-10; Ephesians 2:8-9).

__________________________________

What is the danger of these Charismatic doctrines of demons slithering through the portals of Christianity?

The “dangers” of Charismata and false doctrine promulgated through same is the eternal damnation of the soul of the naïve and the unlearned who enter into a Pentecostal/Charismatic congregation and observe the madness of pagan gibberish, the out of touch with reality behavior relevant to “sinless perfectionism,” and the salvation by works espoused by water baptism as a regenerative element of salvation.

The dangers of charismatic tongues,

The unlearned, the naïve, who legitimately admit they don’t speak in a tongue subsequent their confession of faith are told that the “Sign” of their redemption, salvation, the presence of the Holy Spirit in their life is the “gift of tongues” and if one does not speak in a tongue, they are not redeemed, they are not saved from the “second death” in the Hell; therefore, a façade of tongues follows but a deep nervousness and worry and absence of joy and peace exists in the honest but deceived Christian proselyte because they KNOW they’re speaking gibberish and nonsense yet they comply out of “duty” to the masses, out of pride, and a sincere desire to belong in communion with fellow believers…this is cultic…this is heresy.

The dangers of “sinless Christianity,”

Also, the naïve, the unlearned, the new Christian proselyte who is told that subsequent their confession of faith they will become “sinless” and live in true purity, holiness, before our Lord yet those who have maintained a connection with reality understand that they’re NOT sinless in word, thought or deed and once again, doubt, fear, unworthiness, creep into their walk with Jesus through the Holy Spirit and peace, intimacy, with our Creator is destroyed due false doctrine promulgated by certain factions of Pentecostalism and other ungodly forms of charismata.

The heresy of water baptism as an element of salvation,

Also, the naïve, the unlearned, who are told they must be baptized in water in order to complete the salvation process, these are baptized into a works cult that denies the sole-sufficiency of Jesus’ blood to atone for sin by faith, alone. Any façade of Christianity that teaches water baptism is essential for salvation is a works cult and serves the desires of the Devil, not Messiah. Water baptism is a “work” of obedience that follows salvation by grace though faith, alone.

In conclusion,

Beware of the works of the Devil slithering through the pages and doctrines espoused by his servants in these “religious” forums. The purity of the Gospel is this, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved; this by faith in what Jesus did for you at Golgotha.

Is true love for Elohim expressed by “Keeping the Commandments” or by “Faith”?

Religion - Christianity, , , , , , , , , , , ,
Someone said that “True love is keeping the Commandments.” Is this true?

Discussion,

The Commandments don’t espouse “love” but condemnation (Romans 3:20). Faith in the One who embodies the Commandments, the Logos of Elohim (John 1), espouses true love as that faith honors the Father (John 6:29) and engenders New Covenant relationship with Him (John 3) and subsequently engenders obedience through the indwelling Spirit (Galatians 5:16); therefore, the letter kills as it defines man’s culpability void atonement (Romans 3:20); the Spirit gives life through the Son via faith (2 Corinthians 3:6).

Divinely inspired obedience results from true love for the Son, the Father, the Holy Spirit, this, by faith and this engenders obedience inspired by the indwelling Holy Spirit via the production of divine fruit that fulfills all law, divine fruit of the Spirit that methodically fulfills every divine Commandment as there is no law against the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:16-23).

Yes, Jesus did say “If you love me you will obey my Commandments” (John 14:15) but “love” comes first and true obedience naturally flows through the Holy Spirit given as Guarantor of New Covenant relationship with the Father (Ephesians 1:13-14) as true obedience is NOT possible void the Spirit (Galatians 5:16).

  1. Faith in Jesus that honors the Father (John 6:29).
  2. Receive the indwelling Holy Spirit and walk in obedience to the Spirit’s tutelage in daily sanctification producing fruit that honors the Father’s will (Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 5:16).
  3. Live in peace with Elohim, eternally (Romans 5:1).
