The article is a mishmash of Dispensational and Jewish antichrist claptrap.

Never mind this. I misread your adjective phrase.

Which came first, the Promise of Redemption or the law?

You need to see the law as a reflection of Christ's eternal mission, not the source or the governor of it.

A sinner can be 'unjustly' oppressed? You say Jesus died a martyr. No martyr is a sacrifice for sin. Jesus didn't die a martyr. He died a sacrifice for sin.

We'll try this again. Try to follow: Jesus was made a curse for us. What curse? The curse of the law. What is the curse of the law? Galatians 3:10 - Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. What is the transgression of the...

I did. We don't get to dictate the verbatims. We have to accept these things the way God said them. Why the cross? Why not the sword? Why not a sickness? Or a falling tower in Siloam?

...as are you, with the added offense of reading into the narrative a host of imaginations.

Yes, Jon, we all know what you want it to say, but the text just won't yield.

You're definitely on the right track. But to be more accurate, the law of Moses foreshadowed the Cross. Hebrews 3:5 NLT - Moses was certainly faithful in God's house as a servant. His work was an illustration of the truths God would reveal later. Hebrews 9:8-9 NLT - By these regulations the...

Exception to what? Paul is explicitly applying that very sentence to the death Christ suffered. I think his interpretation is to trusted more than yours.

Except in Galatians 3:13.

Because it was God's will, and sometimes God requires that we just be humble enough to accept that. Hebrews 10:7 - Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. All this thinking that God was constrained by any necessity or anything but love...

Not just death, but the death of the Cross, which is a judgement and a punishment. Jesus was judged as a sinner and punished, by God, as a sinner. Galatians 3:13 Deuteronomy 21:22, 23 It's quite clear.

37 seems to have hit the nail on the head here.

About Martin Luther's statement, think of the heresies he was confronting and the violent reactions he faced. He was declared an outlaw and an heretic by an anti-christ church, and had to be hidden away for a year or almost certainly would have been burned. I thnk considering that we'd...

LOL. Let's make the example fit the actual crime a little better, shall we? Your drunken, unthankful wife neglects you, your house, sleeps with other men and bears their children, but stabs yours to death. What would justice be? Also, an answer to this question would be cool.

"Shop light." LOL. And even if it wasn't, plants can survive a day or two without the right kind of light. But just accepting what is written is no problem. But the process of growth was accomplished in one day, which never happens in nature, and yet some people have a problem with the light...

What do you mean "outside of God?" Are you presuming God existed in a space bigger than himself? That there is room somewhere to spare? Somewhere HIs light couldn't reach? If to you, the omniscience of God means His creation can have a knowledge of something that He does not, then does the...
