Jesus fulfilled the Law…so what does this mean for those who honor Him as Messiah?
Discussion,
Jesus fulfilled the Law just as He said in v.17 of Matthew 5…He is the only One genomically capable of accomplishing same as Jesus circumvented the Adamic sin-nature via the virgin birth (Romans 5:12; Matthew 1:23).
Jesus kept the Law for us, He fulfilled it and He offers us His righteousness, His perfection, gifted-imputed into our life when we trust in Him as our Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:21) and consequently the Father deems us “not guilty” by New Covenant promise (Hebrews 8:12) and the Father guarantees this promise by Gifting the redeemed in Jesus with the Holy Spirit who is Guarantor of New Covenant promise, forever (Ephesians 1:13-14).
IT IS NOT our righteousness or servitude to Torah, Sinai, Moses, days or diets that makes us “right” with Elohim but it is by grace, a divine gift in response to faith (Ephesians 2:8-9), that engenders New Covenant with the Father (Hebrews 10) and we honor the Father subsequent faith in Messiah through obedience to the indwelling Spirit (Galatians 5:16) who enlivens the “spiritual law” written upon our heart; this, in combination with the “new creation” in Messiah; a “new creation” having manifest via a redeemed conscience (2 Corinthians 5:17) and it is the indwelling Spirit who “works” and produces “fruit” through us, divine fruit – against which there is no Law (Galatians 5:22-23) as this divine fruit fulfills ALL LAW; both, Spiritual and Codified; consequently, this New Covenant reality has absolutely NOTHING to do with Sinai or Moses or Torah but is rooted in a Gospel ordained “before Time began” (Romans 6:14; 2 Timothy 1:8-10).
This temporary life constrained by Time and physics is a temporary battle ground for an unfathomable war with its origin in the eternal Spiritual Realm and you and I are intricate players in that war between good v. evil. Our purpose here is as warriors who will choose to ally with our Creator or our Creator’s nemesis and our destiny is wholly contingent upon our alliances in the here and now.
If you do not understand this reality, a spiritual reality clearly articulated within the Canon of Scripture, nihilism is the resultant, nihilism is pervasive and spiritual ignorance is death of the body, mind, soul. Our Creator has provided you with His battle strategy within the Canon of Scripture and Elohim has clearly articulated the who, what, where, when, why, how, concerning your origin and your purpose and your destiny; therefore, you are provided the opportunity to KNOW and LIVE ABUNDANTLY in that knowledge or deny and DIE IN FUTILITY; if you desire “meaning” and “purpose” in this temporary life you will find it in the Canon of Scripture and ultimately in a personal, intimate, relationship with your Creator who is Jesus our Messiah; otherwise, your tenure upon this temporary Earth will be of no account, an existence of wastefulness.
You are a spirit encapsulated, constrained, confined, within a decaying body of flesh and your spirit is created in the spiritual image of your Creator (Genesis 1:26-28) possessing certain divine attributes of our Creator; therefore, if you exist apart from your Creator through denial of His existence and sovereignty over your life, you will exist in nihilism, a subpar existence defined by an all encompassing sense of dissatisfaction with the status quo, you will question your raison d’etre and life will have no lasting purpose or joy. If you choose to honor your Creator, Jesus Christ, by faith and trust in Him as your Sovereign Lord, your life will be filled with purpose, hope, peace; therefore, choose wisely. Walk daily in Christian sanctification via obedience to the indwelling Holy Spirit; here, you will find peace (Galatians 5:16; Romans 5:1). This life is NOT about religion’s days and diets and rules and regulations or secularism’s sexual fulfillment and money and the acquisition of things; this life is about serving our Creator and honoring His will through faith, nothing more than an intimate; personal, relationship with the One who created you; herein is the answer and purpose of life within the Realm of Time.
Jesus said,
39 You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me,40 yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life.41 I do not receive glory from people.42 But I know that you do not have the love of God within you.43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.44 How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? John 5 (ESV)
@Putin challenged me to provide an eleventh-reason why Atheism is killing America; this, in addition to the ten-reasons articulated in a Debate Premise published on 3/09/24 in this DebateIsland forum that teams with representatives of Satan i.e., the vile atheist…
Reason#11 why Liberalism-Progressivism-Atheism are destroying America is the do-gooder virtue signaling LEFT’s warped understanding of human nature as the atheist denies the Biblical sin-nature of humanity (Romans 5:12) and erroneously, foolishly, believes that human nature is basically “good” and all that is required for that “goodness” to manifest in reality is the provision of Maslow’s needs made readily accessible…an ingratiating environment conducive to human realization of nirvana and then there would be World peace and interpersonal relationships of love, joy, fulfillment….these are the thoughts of a demonic fool and we see them played-out in real time via our current war on police; war on jurisprudence-bail-confinement-do the crime do the time…the decriminalization of theft, drugs, forms of assault…BLM, ANTIFA….the atheist is a boil on the butt of America.
12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned— 13 for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the likeness of the offense of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. 15 But the free gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
I hear the demonically deceived atheists and secular humanists that plague these forums and debates with baseless, unsubstantiated, rhetoric, theories, concerning the myths espoused by Darwin, Aron Ra, Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, Hawking…and I ask the atheist to provide evidence that our Creator does not exist by providing evidence of a naturalistic creation apart from a supernatural Creator yet no evidence is forthcoming; therefore, is it logical to conclude that an atheist’ denial of an omnipotent, supernatural, Creator is based solely upon FAITH? I think it is, change my mind?
Did Elohim foreordain – predestine the Atheist to reject Him in Jesus Christ?
Romans 8:29: For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.”
Christian Response…
Romans 8:29 tells you that Elohim foreknew you and predestined you to conform to the image of Jesus Christ via the imputation by faith but you chose to conform to the image of Elohim’s nemesis, Satan.
Consider this as it is most relevant, a case in point…
Elohim also foreknew and foreordained Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, as the Patriarchy of a people Elohim called “the apple of my eye” (Zechariah 2:8) and Elohim lavished them with His covenants and provisions and protection and sustenance as they were to be the progenitors of His Messiah through Judah; Messiah Yeshua came directly, specifically, to Israel’s children (Matthew 15:24) to proselytize them in the New Covenant’s Gospel and prepare them as ministers of the Gospel to the entire World via the Great Commission; this, in fulfillment of Elohim’s promise to Abraham (Genesis 12:3b); unfortunately, Israel’s children (like you and other atheists in this forum) rejected their Messiah; Israel’s children rejected the New Covenant and the Gospel; Israel’s children via free will rejected their ordination as ministers of the Great Commission; Israel’s children conspired with Rome to murder their Messiah upon a tree while exclaiming that Messiah’s blood be upon them and their children (Matthew 27:25); therefore, Elohim in Jesus was broken and crushed due their rejection (Matthew 23:37) and ultimately the Gospel and the Great Commission were taken from Israel and given to the Gentile; this, until the fullness of the Gentiles have entered the Kingdom (Romans 11:25; Acts 13:46) and Israel has subsequently, consequently, been placed under judgment and only a “remnant” of Israel’s children will escape the “second death” in Hell due their unbelief and their blindness (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27); therefore, even though Elohim poured Himself and His divine codified laws and covenants into Israel’s children, it was their rejection, their unbelief, their stubbornness, that overrode Elohim’s divine will and ordination of Israel’s children…you are no different…you have been given Jesus as Mediator for your sin by faith yet you err in wisdom and judgment and discernment exactly like Israel’s children, to this very day.
Concerning the Atheist – Marxist – and their criticism of Jesus our Messiah – His morality and His righteousness…
Morality finds its genesis in our moral, ethical, holy, righteous, Creator, Elohim, as He has written His eternal Spiritual Law upon the human heart (Romans 2:14-15; Hebrews 10:16), infused same within the human genome on Day-6 as Elohim created human kind in His spiritual image possessing certain divine communicable attributes; this, for His eschatological purposes going forward; specifically, as a bulwark against unrestrained narcissism that would have inevitably culminated in societal implosion (Genesis 1:26-28).
The Spiritual Law has been extant as an arbiter of free will subsequent the creation of the angels and that Law will remain extant throughout Eternity as free will remains extant by necessity; this, concerning love and intimacy and relationship with our Creator (John 3:16). The Spiritual Law will also be employed by Jesus Christ at your “Judgment of the Condemned” (Rev 20:11-15) and that Spiritual Law will adjudicate you “guilty” where you will lose both body and soul in Hell in the “second death” as you have rejected Jesus as your Messiah and atonement for your sin (John 3; Acts 4:12).
Elohim does not act in a tyrannical way…He responds with justice and appropriate judgement; after all, this is HIS creation. It is your spiritual father, Satan (John 8:44), that is causation for tyranny and suffering and death and you will perish in Hell in a fate similar to his in that Day (Rev 20:10). Elohim has a specific reason and cause for having created the Realm of Time and physics…this is beyond you or your judgement…you’re but a vapor, a breath in Time (James 4:14) and your spiritual positioning makes you rather irrelevant as well as the only purpose you have in the Realm of Time is servitude to Jesus as His ally but you have chosen to be His foe and you will therefore reap what you sow (Galatians 6:7-8).
Jews and Israelite’s insist that the New Covenant was given only to Israel; therefore, the Gentile is excluded; what is the truth? (Ezekiel 36; Jeremiah 31)
Discussion,
The promise to Abraham by Elohim is inclusive of “every family of the Earth;” this, long before Jacob and the 12-Tribes (Genesis 12:3b). Israel was foreordained to be ministers of the Gospel, the Great Commission and Messiah came directly to them for this specific purpose (Matthew 15:24), but Israel rejected their Messiah and conspired to murder Him upon a tree while exclaiming that Messiah’s blood be upon them and their children (Matthew 27:25); Israel rejected the Gospel and the Great Commission (Matthew 23:37); therefore, Elohim pivoted eschatologically and gave the Gospel and the Great Commission to the Gentile (Romans 11:25; Acts 13:46); therefore, only a “remnant” of Israel’s children will escape the “second death” in Hell due their unbelief, rejection of Yeshua as Messiah (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27); apparently, Torah is not a path to righteousness (Galatians 2:16; Romans 3:20) other than as a roadmap pointing Israel to their need for Messiah by faith (Galatians 3:24).
Atheism does not exist in reality; why is the deception promulgated among the aberrant?
“The atheist can’t find God for the same reason that a thief can’t find a police officer.” Author unknown
There are no “facts” or “logic” relevant to Atheism as Atheism is a religion of fools as per the Holy Spirit (Psalm 14:1); Atheism is a religion and its tenets are arrogance and narcissism defending aberrant sin and a death-style culminating in eternal nihilism. Atheism’s “god” is Satan (2 Corinthians 4:4).
Christianity looks at the World from a Biblical perspective and the Bible simply aligns with what we see in nature and life around us. The Scriptures explain everything relevant concerning our creation and our existence within it while atheism explains NOTHING but provides only obfuscation for a debased and sinful life of addiction to narcissism and hedonism.
In its most basic assertions, the Bible tells you that we are the product of an omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, Designer and all that we see in nature and in the Heavens lends credence to this assertion; this, while the confounded and disturbed atheist has NO explanation for creation or how or why; therefore, Atheism truly does not exist…it is an illogical form of escapism, nihilism, that under girds a life of aberrant lust and destructive desires and narcissism unrestrained which inevitably culminates in a death defined by nihilism. Atheism is demonically rooted escapism from reality placating a seared, defiled, conscience.
Atheism is demonic deception in its genesis; Atheism is the illogical based in nihilism asserting ignorance. There are no true Atheists lest the one claiming same is mentally incompetent and completely unable to discern the World around him/her/he-she-his. The Atheist cannot truly say that a Designer – a Creator does not exist but they can only wish that He did not exist as they have NO OTHER PLAUSIBLE EXPLANATION concerning the supernatural World around us and its origin. You can say you don’t “believe” but you cannot say in the affirmative via evidence that there is no God because you don’t KNOW and you possess no relevant counter argument that negates the reality of God or explains the reality around us that is supernatural, present clearly by design; thus, mandating a Designer.
Atheists live a life of self-deceit – wilful lies that placates a seared conscience (Romans 1:18-32).
Christian America – Perishing in Progressive-Atheist-Secular Humanist Filth: Eschatological Imperative? Biblical Prophecy fulfilled?
Discussion,
Current Federal leadership in America is indicative of and the culmination of 60-years of moral and ethical rot resulting from unrestrained demonic ideological infiltration into the societal mainstream relentlessly attacking the American family; the Christian Church; America’s educational system; America’s youth; this, via Progressive idiocy modeled by the father of modern education, John Dewey; the greatest progenitor of Atheism in World history, Charles Darwin.
America, a Nation founded and ordained by Jesus our Messiah concerning the Gospel and the Great Commission, is, for all intents and purposes, dead on arrival. America’s Constitutional Republic has been hijacked and the sustainable norms, mores, ethics, values, essential for America’s sustainability e.g., Christian values of morality-love for Elohim, our Father-Son-Spirit; love for the Biblical family unit; love for one’s neighbor; true patriotism, a love for America and a fervent desire to serve Her and protect Her; cherished dignity and honor and morality; a strong, indelible, work ethic; an obsessive desire to protect America’s youth and policies focused upon ensuring their success as progenitors of the American dream…these have been eradicated through vile and destructive Progressives – Atheists – Secular Humanists and replaced by an overwhelming hoard of unsustainable citizenry who worship at the throne of the pagan god Molech where child sacrifice, mutilation-burning-torture in the womb is cheered and fought for in the streets of liberal America and in the impotent courts of Progressivism; a hoard of demons in flesh who fight and clamor for unconscionable sexual perversion – homosexuality – lesbianism – transsexualism – pedophilia – medical financial whores who profit by transitioning children from their biological sex to identify as the opposite sex via puberty blockers and unconscionable surgical sexual reassignment; a hoard of demons who worship at the throne of Carl Marx and Vladimir Lenin; a hoard of demons who froth over the invasion of America by Her most prolific enemies through an open and unsecured border; a hoard of demons who virtue signal and dismantle America’s Criminal Justice System and allow hardened criminals to rape, rob, pillage, torture, murder, American citizens; this, with little to no accountability.
The Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ, have walked away from America and America has been left to Her own devices to reap what has been sown by the Atheist – Secular Humanist under the demonic title of Progressive. The god of this World, Satan (2 Corinthians 4:4) is king over America and his servants, the Progressive-Democrat-Liberal-Atheist-Secular Humanist are now pointing the way to Hell and like sheep led to the slaughter, America’s demonically deceived Progressives-Democrats-Atheists-Secular Humanists-Islamist’s-Marxists blindly comply.
Eschatology fulfilled? Where is the United States?
The Holy Spirit has clearly articulated that there is soon to come a coalition comprised of the Nations of Russia-China-Iran/Islam who will engage in a nuclear war with Jerusalem, Israel; this war will preface and initiate the 2nd Advent of Messiah Jesus to Mount Olivet outside the Eastern Gate of the Old City, Jerusalem. This will be a 3.5 years period replete with unconscionable suffering around the World but Jerusalem, Israel will be the focal point of Elohim’s attention as this nuclear conflict will ultimately initiate the Millennial Kingdom of Messiah Jesus. Jesus will be victorious in this soon-to-manifest nuclear war and one very interesting point of eschatological truth is that no relevant Western Power is actively involved as an ally of Israel.
America, where are you in eschatology?
There are suggestions by Eschatologists that a representative from a Western power intercedes only to ask “Have you come to take spoil?” relevant to the presence of the demonic alliance preparing to pounce upon Israel, but this Western peace envoy possesses no authority or military might sufficient to provide any form of military intervention or deterrence; this, indicating that the United States will have been made impotent monetarily, military, morally, ethically, and unable to ally with Israel who will have NO ONE but Jesus our Messiah to intercede for the children of Jacob. THIS IS ELOHIM’S ESCHATOLOGICAL WILL as throughout Israel’s history, Jacob’s children have always looked to an Earthly king or an ally Nation for intercession while Elohim has been essentially an afterthought, but NOT in the Day of our Lord as YESHUA, “The Lion from the Tribe of Judah,” alone, will be victorious (Revelation 5:5) and all of Israel will look upon Him whom they have pierced and they will come to faith in Yeshua and this “Jewish – Israeli remnant” will serve Him in His Millennial Kingdom (Zechariah 12:10; John 19:37).
In conclusion,
Therefore, fellow Christians, do not be dismayed by the demonic forces at work within America via the Progressive – the Secular Humanist – the Marxist – the Atheist as these will all have their place in the Lake of Fire and the “second death” (Revelation 20:11-15). Let the people who honor Jesus our Messiah by faith “look UP for your redemption is drawing NEAR!” (Luke 21:28); therefore, stand fast in the Faith; Fellow Christian, do NOT look to the right or the left but plant firmly your eyes on Jesus our Messiah and endure to the end; know this, we who love and trust in Jesus our Messiah are victors along with Him. MARANATHA!
Why does Elohim appear to answer the prayers of some and reject the prayers of others?
Our Creator ONLY hears the prayers of those who have complied with His will; that is, they have believed in Jesus whom the Father has sent into the World to provide blood atonement and covenant relationship with Him by faith (John 6:29).
The only prayer from the unredeemed, those who have rejected Jesus, that the Father will hear and entertain is a prayer of repentance from sin and a confession of faith-belief in Jesus as Messiah; otherwise, you are on your own!
Those who trust in Jesus, their prayers are heard and always answered with Yes, No, Wait….
James 5:16 The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Proverbs 1:28 Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me. 29 Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of the LORD,
