Yes, they both knew that NOW because Paul told the 12 that's the way it was NOW. But it is not how things had been BEFORE for obedient Jews. We know this from Acts 13:39 and Romans 10:4-5. That's why Peter caved backwards into legal observance, and why Paul rebuked him.

It is, but does ch. 6 seem present tense to you?

Somebody needs to explain chapter 6 if they think Paul wrote it. Better make it good.

No Gentile nor Jew has any covenant with God during this dispensation. No covenant is needed because His grace is sufficient. If you disagree with that...well...

By your standard, Catholics are saved. Pretty much the only ones in Christendom who aren't saved would be those who deny the Bible doctrine of the tri-unity of the God head, and flat out liberal apostates. Everyone else would readily sign off on your statement of faith, meaning you'd accept them...

When? When he was writing to the Galatians? That was his gospel that the law was being added to, not the Kingdom gospel. I'm not clear on what you mean.

Respectfully and sadly disagree. When false teachers came to Galatia preaching the work of circumcision to those already saved by Paul's gospel, he called it "another gospel" which was not in fact any kind of good news. So much so that those preaching it were accursed. I'm willing to be wrong...

Have you always believed me to be an idiot, if you're really Tambora ? If not, which of us has changed?

Bingo

Problem is, the saving faith of Calvinists is not really in the cross, it's in the election they hope they were chosen to and the perseverance that election must result in. Even reprobates can "believe" the gospel but it can't save them, so faith alone is no proof (to Calvinists).

Christ said the G. C. would enable the Twelve with everything they would possibly need to convert gentiles as well as Jews. So you don't know why God drafted Paul, which is all the proof I need. The real Tambora understood it years ago but you do not. You don't talk, think, or believe like she...

For what

The Body of Christ did not exist before Paul was saved and Jews and gentiles began to be saved on the same basis of grace through faith without works, entirely apart from Israel. It's an entirely new and different organism that hadn't and couldn't exist before. On the other hand, Israelites...

Bradley, please teach us how 1 John 1:9 and Colossians 2:13 can both be true for a person at the same time without contradicting each other.

There is no "us" there. I'm not a kingdom Israelite. Neither are you. In my flesh? Absolutely not! No human is. Thankfully, God doesn't see me in my flesh {because I'm counted as having died} but only in the Son, who is perfect on my behalf.

Why?

Then you're not saved. Can't be if you still have unforgiven sins. Not justified either.

They're too busy pretending to not notice.
