Righteousness is obtained by faith. The 10 commandments and their true meaning have been written on our hearts where all sin comes from. Our hearts. The outward commandments have become internalized within, written on the heart as well as all the commandments of God in Christ Jesus. We are now led by the Spirit who fully agrees with the Word. Even the Sabbath, which has become Christ, is now Christ within.
Diane, I have read your posts, they were good in many ways, but I usually do not respond to posts I have no issue with. But I write now because I want you to know I appreciated your very well thought out and sincere responses.As Jesus said: 'Ask and you shall receive,'Most pleased to meet you via this forum.I broke my silence to let you know this.May God's blessings rain down upon you.
Art, I am deeply touched and encouraged by your words. It's true that the squeaky wheel gets the grease; and when wheels are working okay, nobody notices (as it should be). So words of encouragement are especially precious. May God delight you with his tender presence in your days ahead. May he be near, during your times of solitude. Diane
