[QUOTE="Brother in Christ (JC), post: 31032358, member: 877172"] Many are not fully aware how far the New Testament reaches. A high standard of order has been establish that goes beyond all laws. The old spoke of a time where the laws will be written in our heart, ushering a new covenant. -Jeremiah 31:31 Many non-believers suggest that the new testament gives a carte-blanche to sin because of forgiveness and mercy. Nothing can be further than the truth. A Christian is now accountable for not only his/her actions ( found in the letter of the law) but also his/her thoughts found in the new testament. Our true feelings are under scrutiny. The old laws were written on stone while the new are etched on living stone (hearts) Jesus introduced the Royal Law with specifics edicts not found in the old. Matthew 5:28 -lusting in your mind is adultery; 1 John 3:15 - hating is murder James 2:8-10 refers to stumbling on one point of the law and you have broken all laws. This is not found in the old. Matthew 5:44 Love, bless, do good, and pray for those who hate you. Again this message flies in the face of the old. Matthew 6:6 refers to praying in secret -not like tradional practices did bringing attention to oneself. Love is a selfless act. In Matthew 6:24 Jesus stated that You can't serve two masters; either Love or hate but not both. Roman 8:6-7 - For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. The old testament does not reach as far as the new. Walking with Jesus is walking with in Divine Love- agape. You walk in Love respecting everyone. You are indeed responsible of your thoughts. The old does not adequately reach one's intent. You must have a pure heart - a loving mind. A tall order but with our Heavenly Father anything is possible. Stay Strong in God' Love. [/QUOTE]
