>> “But what if we have faith but fail to seek the keep his commandments?” <<

Faith is the keeping of Torah. You have no faith if you see his loving Torah as not worthy of obedience.

If Torah is “written on the fleshly tablets of your heart” how would you then dismiss it?

Words do mean things. If you see the word of Yehova as empty characters on the page, you will act accordingly and find yourself in the same condition as those of whom Peter wrote, who after tasting the things of the Spirit then turn away like dogs returning to their vomit.

If faith is not unto the end, it might as well be vomit.

Faith is the keeping of Torah.

Through the Council of Jerusalem, Peter's revelation, and Paul's letter to the Romans we know that keeping of Torah is no longer required. Keeping of the moral law as expressed in the Ten Commandments and the two great commandments of Love God and Love of Neighbor, yes; keeping of Torah, no. In Jesus Christ we have a New Covenant.

Source of opinion not credible - cultist Rood.

Let the reader beware.
