Hosea: Said, in: Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
This is Harsh, But Listen beloved, this is not for the Church of Jesus Christ. If you know a little Bible you know that there is and old and new testament.
If we would take any application or find a warning similar to this that do apply to us in the New Testament it would be
Hebrews 4:9-11
"9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief."
This also is Harsh, so allow me to explain where I am coming from.
Every born again believer is commanded to add to your faith.... Grab your Bible Please: this would help you find it. 2nd Peter 1-8
The apostle peter said because you are in Christ. Do this Quickly! With All diligence...
Read verse 3 and 4, Notice that you are equip, you have "...all things that pertain unto life and godliness..."
You may wonder how this relate to there being no Grace preaching Church in Jacksonville.
The reason for that is simple. Grace and the Ten Commandments cannot walk together, They don't agree.
As I close this very short Blogg I leave you with the difference between the two.
Grace: John 1:17 Jesus
The Law: John 1:17 Man
Grace: Acts 20:32 : give us inheritance...
Law: 2 Corinthians 3:7...Ministers Death... is done away
Gal: 3:24. The work of the Law is done. we are now in Christ and Faith.
Grace: Titus 2:11. Grace brings Salvation
Application: We as believers should not teach the Ten Commandments, for it only brings death, doubt and confusion. For anyone keeping one must keep all and Christ is of no effect to you.
Question and answers
Is the Ten commandments bad?
Question: Couldn't we just use the Ten Commandments as a guideline or reference. NO. Don't acknowledge them.
Christ is the end of the Law. Christ is our Focus. The Ten commandments robs the importance of Christ and causes us to confess sins, apologize for not doing better, confess sins.
Thus making our own righteousness the focus.
Beloved I cannot stress this enough. But I say, Read Romans again and see How much time Paul spends trying to remove the Law, Ten commandments from The New Testament Church.
Believers who are walking by sight considers their lifestyle.
I say: Allow the Knowledge of Christ to change you. Because if you could have changed your lifestyle and be approved by God, then you have no need of Christ righteousness.
I am actually looking for a Church to attend A grace preaching Church and fellowship and encourage fellow believers.
