So you can show us that you do not believe Yeshua, nor his Father’s word.

I did indeed ask about John 21:20-22:

********* So you’ve never broken the law, then, not even once?

“Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do? Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.” ***

That’s not an answer. If you won’t write in your own words an answer, including if you want to how this passage relates to perfectly keeping the law, then provide Catholic writing that does provide answers.*******

And you still have not answered on if you’ve ever broken God’s law. Have you ever sinned?

Those gentiles were the dispersed lost sheep of the House of Israel, just as Hosea prophesied, and as Paul explained in Romans 7.

Nice assertion; but you have to take a snippet from here and a tad from there and a bunch from somewhere else to build up the Calvinosaurus of theology?

Its not theology, that is what you cling to.

I stick with what the word of God really says. No snippets whatsoever, those, again, are your personal specialty.

Who did Yeshua say he came for?

Who did the prophets say were “A people for his name?”

How did Paul solve the mystery of Yeshua’s forbidden re-marriage in Romans 7?

(no, I do not expect honest answers to these questions to be forthcoming )

False; you did not formulate any question to me about the scripture in John; your only questions were whether I had ever broken the law, as in sinned ?

In Acts you will find the letter James wrote to the new gentile Christiansm instructing them on how to live and ignore the Judaizers. When you read his instructions, get back to us and tell us what he instructed these newborns to do.

But John is telling us this.

1 Jn 5:1-6

Beloved:
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is begotten by God,
and everyone who loves the Father
loves also the one begotten by him.
In this way we know that we love the children of God
when we love God and obey his commandments.
For the love of God is this,
that we keep his commandments.
And his commandments are not burdensome,
for whoever is begotten by God conquers the world.
And the victory that conquers the world is our faith.
Who indeed is the victor over the world
but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

This is the one who came through water and blood, Jesus Christ,
not by water alone, but by water and blood.
The Spirit is the one that testifies,
and the Spirit is truth.

"us ?

Which faith community do you represent and what does your, it seems to me, irrational comment have to do with post 268 ? Is this some kind of attack against Jews, or are you targeting Gentiles ?

It is God Who is in you, in your spirit, as the earnest of your inheritance, not a puppetmaster. Do you break any commandment, ever? Even as a Christian, saved by The Blood of Christ, you will transgress The Law. God has given us a way to deal with that law violation. It is HIG law, so when we violtae HIS law we go to HIM for forgiveness, and He is faithful and just to forgive us and restore the joy of our salvation.

When this very same issue group came up in the early Church, regarding the gentile believers whom the Judaizers were trying to put under the law after they accepted Jesus as their Savior, what did the Jerusalem Church of Jewish believers write to the gentile believers?

It was the Protestant movement of England that would eventually become the United States of America.

Those 13 colonies were majority Protestant.

It was the Catholics that penetrated Latin America, Mexico and our country’s southwest area even BEFORE there was a United States of America.

Most of those Latin America countries are poor, homes to tyrannical despot leaders, communist party, invaded by the Chinese, and never risen to the level to the USA’s American exceptionalism.

Most of your W.A.S.P. nations prospered like the US UK Canada and Australia.

Do a study of White Anglo Saxon Protestant nations.
