Torah

We have taken too much on faith by rejecting Jewish ideas and accepting our religious tradition's teaching.

Mat 5:17 Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfil. Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the law, till all things be accomplished. Mat 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Luk 16:17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fall.

Many teach others that the law was done away with.

Act 13:13 Then Paul and his men set sail from Paphos and arrived in Perga in Pamphylia. But John left them and went back to Jerusalem. Act 13:14 They left Perga and arrived in Antioch in Pisidia. On the Sabbath day they went into the synagogue and sat down. Act 13:15 After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the synagogue leaders asked them, "Brothers, if you have any message of encouragement for the people, you may speak." Act 15:19 Therefore, I have decided that we should not trouble these Gentiles who are turning to God. Act 15:20 Instead, we should write to them to keep away from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from anything strangled, and from blood. Act 15:21 After all, Moses has had people to proclaim him in every city for generations, and on every Sabbath he is read aloud in the synagogues." Act 21:23 Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men that have a vow on them; Act 21:24 these take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges for them, that they may shave their heads: and all shall know that there is no truth in the things whereof they have been informed concerning thee; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, keeping the law.

Rom 3:31 Do we then make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law.

Rom 7 Not death to the Law but death to sin. Paul is explaining regeneration. Not dying to God's Torah or Law in general. We are more lawful after generation.

Rom 7:12 So that the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good.

Some Christians have a disdain for the law. This is not what the word says.

We all have to come down to a decision. Is our religious tradition more important that what the Bible actually says. Have we accept what men say without check it out fully. Every group has scripture that they think support their ideas but do they examine the ones that do not fit.

Rom 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness to every one that believeth.

This above verse does not appear to fit into my undersanding of scripture, however it does not fit with Math 5 either (quoted above). A deeper investigation reveals that end may also be translated goal. That does fit. The Christian theologians injected their own assumptions into their translation.

We have taken too much on faith by rejecting Jewish ideas and accepting our religious traditions teaching. Sure you have to filter.
