-----------------------------------------------
Let's begin
-----------------------------------------------
What is sin?
1 John, chapter 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law : for sin is the transgression of the law.
Going around the commandments:
Romans 7:8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment , wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.
11 For sin, taking
occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by
it slew me.
**Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith ; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Romans 3:31"31": Do we then make void the law through faith ? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Romans 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2: God forbid.
How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? "3": Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? "4": Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. "5": For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: "6": Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
"15": What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Romans 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid . Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
James 4: Ye adulterers and adulteresses,
know ye not
that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever
therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
---------
Where are the ten commandments located in scriptures? Exod. 20 and Deut. 5
--------------
What are the ten commandments?
--------------
Are you keeping them?
Deut.4 [13] And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.
Exod.20
1 - And God spake all these words, saying, I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
2 - Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
3 - Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
4 - Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God : in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
5 - Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
6 - Thou shalt not kill.
7 - Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8 - Thou shalt not steal.
9 - Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
10 - Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
Matt.22 Yeshua - Jesus said:
Commandments 1 to 4
[36] Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
[37] Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
[38] This is the first and great commandment.
Commandments 6 to 10
[39] And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
[40] On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
1John.2[4] He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Rev.21 [8] But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars , shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
John.14: 15 If ye love me, keep my commandments .
John.15 [10 ] If ye keep my commandments , ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
Ecclesiastes (Qoheleth), Chapter 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter : Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 14: For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
--------------
Are the commandments applicable for today? ( 2007 and "always")
Deuteronomy, chapter 5:29 O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always , that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
Deuteronomy, chapter 11:1 Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, always .
Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments , that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
--------------
What are ignorant and wilful, presumptuous sin.
Exodus 21:14 But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.

Deuteronomy 17:13 And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously .
Deuteronomy 18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously : thou shalt not be afraid of him
Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. 28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: 29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
-----------

Leviticus 4:27 And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance , while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty;
Leviticus 5:15 If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance , in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:
Leviticus 5:18 And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist it not, and it shall be forgiven him.

Acts 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Ephesians 4:18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
1Peter 1:14
As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves
according to the former lusts in your ignorance
--------------
What is our righteousness?
Deuteronomy 6:25
And it shall be
our
righteousness
, if we
observe to do all these commandments before the LORD
our
God, as he hath commanded
--------------
Be perfect ?
The world has implanted in our minds and
consciousness through advertisement on television, videos, DVDs, CDs and other
media the meaning of the word perfect. We always hear about the perfect weight,
shape, smile, image etc. We need to look into the word of God and see through
the scriptures the meaning of the word perfect.
A few examples of this would be:
1 - The world says be sexy, God says be
holy. ( Leviticus 19:2
...Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD
your God am holy.)
2 - The world says, no one's perfect. God
says be perfect as My Father which is in heaven is perfect.
( Matthew 5:48
)
3 - The world says, everyone sins, Yeshua / Jesus say, "Go
and sin no more". (John 8:11:
... go, and sin no more
).
A simple understanding of being perfect is
examining yourselves if you are keeping the
10 commandments.
You know which ones you are keeping and which ones you are
not keeping.
In very simple terms, you are either doing
something or you are not, that simple, yes or no, 0 or 1, on or off.
You might need to make a few ajustments
in you life. :-)
2 Corinthians, chapter 13:5:
Examine yourselves
, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye
not your own selves, how that Yeshua the Messiah /Jesus Christ is in you, except
ye be reprobates?
Deuteronomy 8:2
And
thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty
years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and
to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart,
whether thou wouldest keep his commandments
,
or
no.
***Serving the Lord is not a guessing game.
We have no excuse not to know. We have God's Word as a study guide.
God gave us one life span and one Book, there will be
a test!
Deuteronomy 18:13
Thou shalt
be perfect
with the LORD thy God.
1 Kings 8:61
Let your heart therefore
be perfect
with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes,
and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
Matthew 19:21
Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt
be perfect
, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the
poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
2Corinthians 13:11
Finally, brethren, farewell.
Be perfect
, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in
peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
Philippians 3:15
Let us therefore, as many as
be perfect
, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise
minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
2Timothy 3:17
That the man of God may
be perfect
, throughly furnished unto all good works.
James 1:4
But let patience have her perfect work, that
ye may be perfect
and entire, wanting nothing.
---
1 Thessalonians, chapter 5:21
Prove all things
; hold fast that which is good.
2 Timothy, chapter 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God
, a workman that needeth
not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Colossians, chapter 4:6 Let your
speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt,
that ye may know how ye ought to
answer every man.
Colossians, chapter 3:16: Let
the word of Christ
dwell in you richly
in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms
and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
2 Peter, chapter 3:18
But grow in
grace, and
in the knowledge
of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now
and for ever. Amen.
Rom.12 [
2]
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of
your mind,
that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable,
and perfect, will of God.
--------------
What is love? Kisses, hugs, ice cream, cake
and cookies sounds nice...but John says:
2 John, chapter 1:6: And
this is love
, that we walk after his commandments
. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning,
ye should walk in it.
--------------
What does born again mean?
When we are born again, we are to renounce the old Man. We
should not bring over to the new man the old traditions, feasts or anything
from the past life of sin. We are to be first babes in Messiah,
1Pet.2[2] As newborn babes, desire
the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby.
When you are born again, you have to realize as a gentile,
you are graffed into the natural branches and all are connected to the Messiah
Yeshua who is the VINE. You
are now equal to those who received and keep God's Commandments.
We are all one in Messiah.
2Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any
man be in
Christ, he is a new
creature: old things are passed
away; behold, all things are become new
.

Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even
the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of
twain one new
man
, so making peace;

And that ye put on the
new
man
, which after God is created in righteousness
and true holiness.
Colossians 3:10
And have put on the
new
man
, which is renewed in knowledge after the image
of him that created him:
Romans 6: 5
For if we have been planted together in the likeness
of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing
this, that our old man
is crucified with him, that the body of sin might
be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
Ephesians 4:22
That ye put off concerning the former conversation
the old man
, which is corrupt according to the deceitful
lusts;
Colossians 3:9
Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put
off the old man
with his deeds;
--------------
What was the original meaning of the word
christian?
Remember, there were no Protestants before
1500 AD nor Catholics at the time of Messiah Yeshua.
Messiah -
Messiah followers
Acts.11[
26] And when he had found him,
he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled
themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were
called Christians first in Antioch.

28] Then Agrippa said unto Paul,
Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian
.

16] Yet if any man suffer as
a Christian, let him not be
ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

Who was the new covenant given to?
Heb. 8:8 -12: For finding fault
with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when
I will make a new covenant with the house of
Israel and with the house of Judah: Not according
to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them
by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not
in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
For
this is the covenant that I will make with
the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord;
I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will
be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: And they shall not teach
every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord:
for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful
to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember
no more.
Jer. 31:31-37: Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that
I will make a
new covenant
with
the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that
I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant
they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
But this shall be the covenant that I will
make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith
the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts;
and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no
more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD:
for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them,
saith the LORD; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their
sin no more. Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day,
and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which
divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:
If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of
Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. Thus saith
the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth
searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that
they have done, saith the LORD.
Luke 22:20 Likewise also the cup
after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament
in my blood, which
is shed for you.

how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying, Lord, they have killed
thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek
my life. But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself
seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal. Even
so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election
of grace.
Shalom

1 Corinthians 6:17 But he that
is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. 18: Flee fornication
. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but
he that commiteth fornication sinneth against his own body.
1 Corinthians 6:19 What?
know ye not
that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have
of God, and ye are not your own?
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick;
and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and
glorify your Father which is in heaven.
