To eat the bread of painful labors;

So once again you want us to have discussion with an article???
No wonder nobody has posted until I did to make fun of you!
Every REAL Christian KNOWS we are saved by GRACE thru FAITH and that POWER (Grace also) from heaven is given us to keep us from sinning each and everyday because the rest of Eph. 2 says we will DO GOOD WORKS then by that same POWER!
All the Torah Law stands except what was obviously fulfilled by the Messiah's coming (animal sacrifices. earthly priests etc) today. salvation NEVER came by the Law, so what's up with the thread, we all know this! The TORAH LAW only identifies WHO a SINNER is and we will all be judged by YHWH'S PERFECT LAW should we elect to break it by choice!

Flat Earth Teddy, now your talking outa both sides of you mouth—again!!
For you say you’re saved by your righteous works here: QUOTE FLAT EARTH TEDDY: posted : 21 Mar, 2021 01:33 PM David, Adam is posting about continual salvation that comes to those that are 'saved' by living a righteous life afterward. This is a Christian forum, everyone knows about initial salvation except obviously you David”. END QUOTE
Now your saying something entirely different. Perhaps the article I copied finally has gotten through to you—that would be a real miracle, except for the fact you don’t seem to understand what you say from one post to another
The TORAH LAW only identifies WHO a SINNER is and we will all be judged by YHWH'S PERFECT LAW should we elect to break it by choice!
