That is...Ephesians2: “8For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9not by works, so that no one can boast. 10For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life.…Therefore remember that formerly you who are Gentiles in the flesh and called uncircumcised by the so-called circumcision (that done in the body by human hands)— 12remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. 13But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.”…......
Oh my goodness Surveyor...now look at this....
“For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, 15by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace, 16and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility....”
Huuuuunh...he set aside in his flesh the law and its commands and regulations....for the purpose of what?! creating in himself a new humanity out of two?...Oh my goodness graciousness..Surveyor...you need to get with it man...!
“17He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. 18For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
19Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, 20built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. 21In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. 22And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.”
Why Surveyor...you were just foolin’ us all the time, forcing us to go deeper into scripture just to help us discover the true depths and richness of the love of Yehoshua how he freed us of the tediums of the old law, indeed Paul addressing me(and the Ephesians) in our gentile status, shows us that we have become part of a wonderful creation of humans that Christ has created within himself! Why thank you Surveyor...you HAVE been a big help!
By grace are you saved by FAITH!
By Paul’s definition in Hebrews that faith is the very same faith Moses preached.
Read Hebrews 3 and 4.
Paul stated plainly that the gospel he preached is the gospel Moses preached.
What did Moses preach?
Torah!
What did Yeshua preach?
Torah!
There is no gospel but the gospel of love given to us in Torah.
.
P.S.
The laws and regulations that were set aside were the Takanot and Ma’assim of the hopeless Pharisees.
Yeshua said plainly that Torah was to endure until the Earth and heavens depart.
IOW, it has about 1000 years left to go.
