Close enough - I know I don't merit the favor of salvation. Nor can I ever w/o the covering blood of Yeshua.
I do my best to hold my life up to the Commandments because God gave them so we may be happy. I'm not perfect but I accept that I can do better in a world where sin is all around us. Paul gave over 95 things that are sinful! Do we just say "never-mind, I have GRACE!". A huge lie for the quick and easy salvation hucksters!
That is very good thinking - Indeed, an aspect of Torah is 'right living'... And 'right living' doesn't change. Another really important aspect is as a filter upon interpretation - That which the Brit Hadasha CAN'T be saying, without breaking Torah... Very important.
Jesus taught the commandments and many times Paul teaches to lay aside the old man. I'm sticking with scripture.
Exactly so. Good for you.
Too bad lots of Protestants and Catholics don’t know Torah and what it’s all about.
