WHERE IS THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS GOD'S 4th COMMANDMENT IS ABOLISHED?

:)Then it was our sins that crucified him and not "the Jews". I crucified him with my sins as did you, especially since Jesus basically said no man takes my life, I give it.

Our sins did not crucify Jesus without people doing the crucifixion right....? Sorry you made me laugh a little here but yes Jesus died for our sins. I know what you mean but our sins did not crucify Jesus, people did that part Kenny. :)

No... if you and I had not sinned, Jesus would not have been crucified...

He was wounded for my transgressions, he was bruised for my iniquities... I think you need to dig deeper and understand faith vs what you see. We are "the people".

Not really Kenny, I agree that Jesus did not have to die if we had not sinned. However Jesus needed to be crucified to die for our sins and it was mankind that crucified Jesus. You will probably understand how this works better if you understand the old covenant shadow laws of atonement and animal sacrifices and sin offerings.

Yes, so good about the laws of atonement. And, one could say that it goes all the way back to Adam and Eve in Genesis Chapter 3 even before any "Mosaic law" was given or even before the Jewish nation existed.

Not denying the involvement of the Romans (Gentiles) and those who were catalysts (Jewish leaders) - but I can't deny that it was my sins that crucified Him:

Gal 1: 3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who gave Himself for our (my) sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5 to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

The reality is that we can minimize our involvement by pulling the Adam syndrome of blaming someone else:

What do you get from this verse:

6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. 7 For he who has died has been freed from sin.

As I read it, I see my involvement since I was in Him and with Him in the crucifixion.

I just found this piece that i thought was well rounded:

Well yes I obey Gods dietary laws they were never abolished. As a Christian I go to Jesus who washes away sin to which all these old covenant shadow laws pointed to. My point is that Gods 10 commandments are Gods eternal laws and in the old and new covenants they are Gods standard of good (moral right doing when obeyed) and evil (moral wrong doing when disobeyed); sin (moral wrong doing when disobeyed) and righteousness (moral right doing when obeyed) see Romans 3:20; Romans 7:7; 1 John 3:4; Psalms 119:172 etc. In Torah Gods 10 commandment are called Gods 10 commandments not the 613 commandments. See Exodus 34:28; Deuteronomy 4:13; 10:4. Gods eternal laws of good and evil are not the same as Gods shadow laws for atonement that all point to Gods Messiah in Christ.

Take Care.
Torah makes it clear that the Jewish Laws are only mandatory for Jews. Also, again, the 10 Commandments are only 10 of 613 Commandments, which can be found here: A List of the 613 Mitzvot (Commandments) - Judaism 101 (JewFAQ)

The scriptures teach the Jews organized it with the Romans right?
No. Jews were afraid that a disruption during Pesach might force the Romans to quelle it, which they periodically did. Crucifixion was a Roman form of execution whereas stoning was the one mandated under Jewish Law [halacha]. Jews hated the Roman occupation, and the Romans didn't trust the Jews, thus the idea that they cooperated with each other is ludicrous.

Well that is sad brother because it is love to share the truth of Gods Word right? On the other hand it is also love to believe and obey what Gods Word says according to the scriptures. Our love is expressed in believing and obeying what Gods Word says. see John 14:15; John 15:10; 1 John 5:2-4; Romans 13:8-10; Matthew 22:36-40 and James 2:8-12. Therefore not one of us here can claim to love God or neighbor if we break Gods commandments. Breaking Gods commandments is the very definition of what sin is according to the scriptures and only proves we do not know God see 1 John 3:4; 1 John 2:3-4.

Take Care.
"God's word" is not just found in the Ten Commandments and the Gospel.

It was enlarged, IMV. Priests worked on the Sabbath... when was their Sabbath?
The only commandment that they would possibly break was if they lit a fire on Shabbat. However, they could do what many orthodox do and that is to light the fire prior to Shabbat and keep it on low until the sacrifices are to begin.

Thanks Metis. I wasn't talking about what commandment they could break but rather they did their assigned "work" on the Sabbath which probably means they had another day of rest during the week.

Your response here

I see, but you did not know there was ten commandments.
That is a lie. I agreed that there are ten commandments. My claim has VERY SPECIFICALLY been that the Bible does not number the ten commandments, that it is tradation and not the text which determine which verses belong to which commandment numbers.

No, the ONLY thing I want to see from you is one of two things: either quote the verse where it identifies sabbath keeping as the fourth commandment OR concede that no such verse exists and that you rely on tradition and not the text to say that sabbath keeping is the fourth commandment.

Otherwise, don't bother replying.

Well that is obvious because if you read what you were responding to you would not respond that way you did seeking to make arguments no one was ever talking about. Let me ask you again; Do you have anything constructive to add to the actual OP? I am guessing not.
If you are not going to answer my challenge, don't bother replying.

If they're like some pastors I know, they probably rested 6 days per week. :p

Kenny I have never once said that Jesus did not die for our sins. I think you are missing the point. Our sins did not crucify Jesus, people did. Just like in the old covenant laws for atonement people had to take the life of the sin offering.

We are in the new covenant not the old covenant if you are not a part of Gods Israel in the new covenant you have no part in Gods new covenant promise see Hebrews 8:10-12 from Jeremiah 31:31-34. God never made a new covenant with gentiles. According to the new covenant scriptures Gods Israel are now all those who have are no longer born in the flesh of the seed of Abraham but are now all those who through faith believe and obey what Gods Word says see Romans 9:6-8; Romans 2:28-28 and Galatians 3:28-29. Gentile believers are nor grafted into Gods Israel through faith see Romans 11:13-26. You do err not knowing scripture.

Then we have what the scriptures teach in Matthew, the Roman governor washes his hands of Jesus’ blood while the Jews proclaim, “His blood be on us and on our children!” (Matt 27:25). John’s Gospel portrays Jews as wanting to kill Jesus throughout his ministry (John 5:18, John 7:1, John 8:37). Similar sentiments are found elsewhere, including writings by Paul, who, himself a Jew, had once persecuted Christians (1Thess 2:14-15, Phil 3:5-6). You do err not knowing scripture.

Agreed 2 Timothy 3:16 says All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,

Then with context added back.....
3rdAngel said: Perhaps you should start reading the Torah instead.. It seems at least scriptures knows there are ten commandments spoken and written with the finger of God on two tables of stone - Exodus 34:28; Deuteronomy 4:13 and Deuteronomy 10:4. So do some of your Jewish friends
Your response here
I read the Torah all the Time. And especially, I have studied Duet 20:1-17. YOU need to study that passage, so that you can acknowledge that it doesn't identify which verses are the fourth commandment.
I see, but you did not know there was ten commandments.

You say you agreed that there was 10 commandments then I asked you as far as order was concerned what is the 4th commandment in the Hebrew and non-Catholic bibles and you could not answer? Here is a funny thing. You agree that there is 10 commandments and you cannot tell me with the 4th is? Even the links I posted to you from "My Jewish Learning" says that the 4th commandment in the Hebrew bible is the Sabbath commandment.

Take Care.
