God's Truth

Jesus did not preach the truth and then change it for Paul and the Gentiles!
Jesus is the Word of God and His Word remains forever.

I could not care less what you think is funny. I only care about God the Father and Jesus Christ.
There is nothing funny about God and His Truth.

Where does Paul say God made a covenant with Gentiles during this dispensation of grace? That's your claim...support it or withdraw it.
And, GT, I do apologize for one thing. You're not teaching the traditions of men as Scripture; I take that back. You're teaching as Scripture the opinions of an ignorant woman. You.
First, show the scripture that says "dispensation".
Now we can all see the manmade come out of your beliefs.
You're right.
What you make of "God and His Truth" is not funny; it is a travesty.
And because you do this in your ignorance, you will also , in your ignorance, take this point as an attack on your person.
Even when you relate that you could not care what another thinks of you, you are once more revealing your ignorance.
For you are, never were, never will be, the issue - your ignorance is the issue.
For a Great White Throne of ignorance it is.
Wake up, woman!
Nowhere anywhere in the Bible does it say we no longer have to obey but only believe, NOWHERE.
You had better wake up and be clothed with Christ, because he comes as a thief in the night. Being clothed with Christ is about OBEYING Jesus.
Some say the Gospel isn't there. I say it is.
Paul has taught extensively in this chapter about the law and justification. The very first chapter speaks of the Gospel of Salvation. Are we just to forget the entire letter and claim Romans 10 has no back story? We "confess" what? That Jesus is Lord, the ONLY Saviour (God). Saviour from sin goes without saying. The Law with it's sacrifices for sin vs. the end of the Law for righteousness for all who believe. Separate the sacrificial death of Christ from the law, and the law has no meaning.
That He was "raised from the dead" includes His death burial and resurrection. With the heart man "believeth" unto righteousness. And what is in that word "believe"? The death, burial and resurrection is there. If it isn't then it isn't believing unto righteousness, as Paul has explained already. There it is.... the justification of faith. There isn't one single thing missing.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Romans 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
I only believe in what the written Word of God says.
I will not believe any teachings that say we only have to believe and no longer have to obey unless I see it in the scriptures.
It can never ever been shown, because it does not exist.
Obey Jesus.
You're not obeying Christ when you say His Father made a covenant with Gentiles, when He did not.
I think it is there, Jerry. What is Paul having us confess? I think he's having us confess (acknowledge) that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only Saviour. That we are to believe in our heart that it is He who died for our offenses and was raised for our justification.
That He was "raised from the dead" includes His death burial and resurrection. With the heart man "believeth" unto righteousness. And what is in that word "believe"?

Luke 22:20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you
Matthew 26:28
This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
Did you read that? Jesus says for the FORGIVENESS OF SINS. It is a COVENANT with his blood.
1 Corinthians 10:16
Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?
1 Corinthians 11:25
In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me."
2 Corinthians 3:6
He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant--not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
Hebrews 8:6
But in fact the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant of which he is mediator is superior to the old one, since the new covenant is established on better promises.
Hebrews 8:8
But God found fault with the people and said: "The days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah.
Hebrews 8:13
By calling this covenant "new," he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear.
Hebrews 9:15
For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance--now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
That does not speak of the source of the blessing, that the believer is "justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus" (Ro.3:24).
This verse is about the fact that we are redeemed by the blood of the Lord Jesus:
"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ" (1 Pet.1:18-13).
the verse which you quote here says nothing about the source of that blessing:
The truth concerning the source of the blessing which believers receive is notfound in the tenth chapter of Romans. How anyone can forget the part of the gospel which declares that Christ died for our sins is beyond me!
And, GT, I do apologize for one thing. You're not teaching the traditions of men as Scripture; I take that back. You're teaching as Scripture the opinions of an ignorant woman. You.
I do not know but I wonder if it ties in with receiving the grace of God, but in vain? That is, grace is acknowledged but is not truly received...not really believed and trusted...leading to having an appearance of righteousness but denying the very (and only) power thereof, which power is received only through believing the Gospel. Wouldn't such seem to tie into the overall context of Israel's failure? Just a thought.
Please repost this and highlight in yellow the part where God made a covenant with Gentiles independent of Israel.
