What does God's Holy Law Demand?

[JonahofAkron]

James was a Judaizer like you. He believed in Jesus, but he also believed that you must keep the law of Moses.

There were many Judaizers. Paul had to straighten them out, Galatians 2:11-21.

So the letter written by James should be tossed? I mean.... He was a Jew and his name was Jacob.

James focused on the royal law of love which is revealed in the life of all those with true faith. James should not be tossed.

I agree that he shouldn't be tossed. Pate just found something in James that he can't reconciliation and rather than try to figure out what that means, he hates on the character of James and what he wrote about. I would just like him to admit it so we can move on.

Pate preaches the gospel of grace so he is light years ahead of a law monger like you.

I am all about grace, too. The beauty of His grace is that any of the penalty (also read 'curse of the Law') that I deserve, He took for me. It's beautiful. I love the Messiah.

You've never known grace and most likely never will. Grace has nothing to do with you.

Now see, you're starting to hurt my feelers. There's all name calling and none of the conversation we were having earlier. How shameful.

Thank you very much. I'm here to expose ad hominem as a terrible tactic for arguing.

If you would read the Bible you would see that James had some problems.

Why did James send men to spy on Peter? Galatians 2:12.

Why did James want to circumcise Gentile Christians? Acts 15.

So you want to throw out of the Bible book called James?

Is that the only part of James that you want to throw out, the part that says faith alone is dead and cannot save anyone?

It was not uncommon in the early church for Christians to continue to observe the law that had been abolished. James was one of them.

Show one scripture where James says to obey the old law.

Show it now or concede.

It wasn't unusual because they were Jewish. Nothing was abolished except the enmity between us and God.

Was Stephen stoned for obeying Mosaic law? After all he was a member of the Jerusalem congregation that James pastored.

Well, it's come to this: You are a liar, a slanderer, and a bigot.
But you have faith, so I guess it's OK.

Mr. Pate. Redeem yourself, and either provide a source for the slander you presented, or admit that you were wrong.
