    I agree. I studied Plato in my degree and the idea of a disembodied truth is the Greek idea of the ideal: that reality is removed from us, and that what we see are just shadows of a non material reality. The Hebrew idea of humanity is the concrete mixture of mud and the breath of God, the life that the Lord breathed life into the mud figure so that it became a living soul/ body.

    Thank you, Torben. I've heard faith is understood by jews as obedience. When you ask them a question "Do you believe in God?", they hear it as "Are you obedient to what God is saying?". It really helps to realize the true meaning of faith.

      @@murraylloyd6011 True faith is not only believing Jesus for the remission of our sins; true faith is also believing Him as our LIFE and ALL. If He is not our very LIFE, we don't yet know what faith in Him is. Jesus said: "He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him." True heaven-born faith from the soul of Jesus IS faithful to God as Abraham was. IT IS FAITH THAT IS WORKING THROUGH LOVE (Gal.5: 6). This faith is in heart-cleansing, soul-transforming, sin-banishing, world-overcoming, power of God! Keep that in mind when you read what John writes: "He who DOES the will of God abides for ever." (1John.2: 17), just as the Lord said: "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who DOES the will of My Father in heaven." (Matt.7: 21) This is the new life in faith in Jesus, who is LORD. He said: "Abide in Me!" (John.15: 1-6) "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit." (Romans.8: 1)
      Torben is speaking just right here in this video!

    I've recently learned this too! Hebrew is a verb, something that you do. Greek is a philosophy something that you feel or think. Jesus, Paul, John were all trying to explain to us Hebrew ways of DOING things. Paul and John were trying to convey these ACTION Verbs with Greek thoughts. Unfortunately, today, our language also "thinks" the way of the Greeks, so BELIEVE has been reduced to "a belief" and not something that you live out and DO such as "aman" in Hebrew. Thumbs up!

    This makes so much sense! That’s why we misinterpret Paul in Romans as him (as a follower of Christ) not doing what he wants to do and struggling with wanting to do the will of God but not being able to when in reality, if you look at the full letter as a whole, Paul is talking about his struggle when he was a pharisee and how he wanted to do the will of God but couldn’t (because we were slaves to sin in our old life) but now we are free to do the will of God and don’t have to answer to sin! We can truly act on what we believe!

      Q: Paul seemed to believe there were 2 "entities" in his body, which will not allow him to do what he wanted to do. So basically the body and the spirit/soul are only one but sin that lives in us is another that brings basically the same result no? Would you please explain how are the two different? Or, what's the advantage of being either the spirit / soul or sin?
      Romans 7:15

What about 1 Kor. 11 about head covering : Paul say a woman should have her head covered as because of the angles, so she is under authority. So it is also a physical sign of something spiritual?
    I don't want to cover my head but do I have to? If Jesus wants me to cover my head I will do it... Can you do some teaching on women in ministry? That would really be very helpful. God bless you 🙏

      Paul was speaking specifically to the women of Cirinth... Their culture wirshipped a god called the Pythia.. Only had women priests, whowere mediums.. Went into a trance & brought a "prophecy" from the "deity" for the initiate... Men were totally emasculated in so many ways... Men had never been respected, but lived by superstition & fear.. Men had not learnt to "cover" women spiritually.
      There was no concept of husbands, fathers... The Father-heart of God, in their culture....
      So Paul had to start by silencing & greatly humbling the wonen, in a spiritual/ church meeting context... To re-teach them what is Biblically a man & a woman...
      Never take a text out of its iriginal context!!!!
      Paul is addressing the people of Corinth, not you! We have to learn from that context, & what Paul was aiming at achieving in the conduct of men & women...

    Well said. Half of christians fulfill christian duties to feel closer to God but the heart is in the wrong place that why many people are walking in the wrong calling. Man sees the outside but God sees what’s hidden inside. That’s why Jesus said that many people clean the outside of the cup but the inside is dirty, He wants us to clean the inside and by default the outside will be clean. Our motives, intentions, are they pure? Or is it just a religious selfish gain type a thing I think about this all the time when it comes to Godly things. All that to say that when I meditate the word I put it into action when the time comes. From what I’ve learned God is all about timing when the time is right it’s action time.

So we trust Jesus by believing that he paid the price for our sin on the cross and then also showing that we trust Him by doing what He says...

    John 3:6 KJVS - That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit

  • @jeffknightvisualartist
    @jeffknightvisualartist 6 месяцев назад

    Yes, amen to this teaching! The Church has been invaded by Greco-Roman Philosophy and Paganism. The Apostles Teaching, particularly Paul's, warns us against this time and time again. That's why there's no theological division between Romans and James, or should I say Jacob (because the Church titled his Epistles with the Greek version of name). Yes, it's what we do that proves our faith. The Reformation is guilty of defining actions of Faith as works and made obedience a dirty word. We don't perform works to earn our salvation, but perform our works because of our salvation. This is where the term "faith alone" is theologically incorrect. In Christ Jesus alone, yes, but by faith and works in harmony in proving our faith. In Judaism, they perform the 613 laws of the Torah, but they have no way of defeating the law of Sin and Death (This is what Paul was debating in Romans). That's why the shed blood of Christ Jesus, His death, and resurrection are so powerful because we have to spiritually and physically die with Him and rise with Him in Baptism. That action in faith with repentance is being born again, not saying a prayer. When the Jews have the Passover, they are remembering and celebrating what took place in Egypt and at the Red Sea, and when we take the bread and drink the cup, we are remembering and celebrating what Jesus did on the Cross and what we do when we are baptised into Jesus Christ. It all makes sense, and it feels like it's taken all my life to come to this place. This teaching is so liberating and amazing. Church tradition doesn't save us, but obedience to the commandments of Jesus Christ and the Apostles' teaching proves our Salvation in Him. Amen!!! 🙏

    You are right to say: we need to believe and practice what we belief. Jesus was angry at the Pharisees. Why? Because they said they believe but they didn’t practice what they believed and Jesus call them hypocrites. So, the fact to believe in the head and not practice was not a Greek mindset but also a Jewish mindset.
    You quoted the letter from James: James wrote to the Jews who believe in Jesus and they also said they believe but they didn’t do what they said. So, we see also here that every has a propension to do it so.
    You are right to put the emphasis on it so that they may obey to the Lord and be blessed. Thank you for the message.

      ​@@lycorispeony1274 Good afternoon! The new covenant, and covenants in general, aren't only about what you as an individual will or decide. The only human that agreed for Jesus to be born as the Savior and Lord of the world was Mary. Her submission to God's will affects you whether you want her Son to rule over you or not. The same with Adam; his choice to break the word given to him caused all of his offspring to suffer when God righteously cursed him as He said He would.
      If you're a parent: did you have your children listen to false teachers as well as the righteous, or did you choose for them?
      God, as a loving and wise Father, makes many good decisions for us, as He wills, while still allowing us to be tested throughout our lives. At some point, the faith of our parents must become our own.

      ​@@PizzaDisguiseit was not all babies but all male babies. The circumsition was a covenant made with one people that He will be their God. There was no forgivness of sins in it. The new covenant is individual because it includid forgivness of sins after a personal choice of faith and repentance, as judgement is individual. I live in a orthodox country and i see first hand the devastating effect that baby baptism has. It is a sinful nation that brags to be Christian. Children of believers should be trained up in the teachings of the Lord, but than they must choose whom they serve.

    Yes exactly, the greeks had absolutely no problem to think about godmen or all kinds of higher or lower dieties. The hebrews, in stark contrast, believed in ONE GOD AS ONE PERSON, only. Human elohim, loke Moses was called elohim, only with respect to human representatives of God, like the rebellion or Korach against Moses was treated by God as if Korach was rebelling against God himself because Moses was Goda anointed one. Now, we have another anointed one: The man Jesus Christ, who is made by God king and lord of all. In everything is he subordinate to God but exalted above everything else.

      Somewhat, yes, but not really. The bible says that God breathed spirit into the body and it became a living soul. The hebrew word "nephesh" simply means "a living being" which is exactly what a human is. So the soul (remeber: it simply means a living being) is the whole rather than a part of the human. There is no soul without spirit. There is also no soul without the body.

    ...and vines greek dictionary shows that a big part of the meaning of faith (pisteou) is trust.. and the amplified bible brings that out.. I show i trust Jesus by believing he paid the price for my sin and by doing what He says...
    John 3:16 16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes (trusts in, clings to, relies on) him shall not perish but have eternal life.
    ..and it is in the present continous tense, the person that goes on believing/trusting (Unlocking the bible, david pawson p1229).
    Heb 3:18 And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not TO THOSE WHO DISOBEYED? 19. So we see that they were not able to enter, BECAUSE OF THEIR UNBELIEF.
    Disobedience and unbelief here are interchanged. They did not know the Lord enough, (due to their disobedience), to trust Him..

      Hi George!! I’ve studied this question alot because I have been asked a lot . There’s 2 things for me that give me a lot of understanding.
      Before Jesus died and resurrected people could not be baptized (into Christs death and resurrection (Roman’s 6)) nor could they receive the Holy Spirit because Jesus promised in John that the spirit (the helper) would be sent after He ascended back to the Father. So the man on the cross with Jesus could not be baptized (because He hadn’t died and resurrected yet) nor receive the spirit because the spirit had not been sent yet to live inside the disciples (not until acts 2, after Jesus resurrected)
      ALSO something very interesting, if you think about how the thief died, he literally died with Christ. (Which is the purpose of our baptism).
