The law says do not go faster than 35 mph in a residential area
The enforcement (condemnation) of that law is removed
Is it now acceptable to drive 180 mph in a residential zone?
Does driving 35mph result in salvation through obedience, or is that obedience an outward manifestation of a will that is naturally concerned for others?
“Faith” = “Obedient Action resulting from Belief”, and not “Belief” alone.
Obedient action according to what resulting in belief from what?
If we are members of the Kingdom of God, we should constantly be concerned for what is best for our fellow members. Where are those things defined, biblically?
If we are the temple wherein the Spirit of the Lord desires to indwell, are we not thereby under obligation to perform the priestly duties? What are the duties that the priests are called upon to perform for temple worship?
Correct, abstaining from stealing from your neighbor does justify us. Attending congregation does not justify us. Faith does. If we are faithful we will try to obediently observe those things.
There are simply more things to observe than what is taught in Christian pulpits.
Is it not odd, that of all the Torah teachings, that one of the few non-Decalogue teachings the church has retained is the Tithe (which can’t even be observed today)?
Absolutely.
