Maybe before entering Canaan, but after the establishment of the Temple they had to enter the temple, which was all holy
Yes but we are talking about the covenant and that was with the tabernacle
Now the temple laws are irrelevant
Because many man made things were added there
I'm getting a bit too tired to nitpick this same heresy again but suffice it to say, this whole misunderstanding boils down to you having no concept of the root message of the covenant itself, the laws are irrelevant and the answer doesn't lie within them
Ok
@SUPER MALE VITALITY™ refresh my memory, what denonination are you?
We can take a break i have some work to do
The laws are inside the box, but you have to understand why the box is there to understand the contents
I need to see the connection
If there is no connection then i need to see the purpose
If there is no clear purpose then thats about it

Very drole.
Of the Latter-Day Saints of course
All honesty though Retarded Catholic is what best fits currently
That fits most of us here tbh.
@Stephen Levi I'll leave you with this question to chew on. What was God's purpose for giving the law to the Israelites? Utterly unremarkable degenerates who were no better than any other backwards savage tribe they were contemporary with, what is God saying to us, those who he has redeemed, in His story of their legacy? What did the laws accomplish? Because the law was never an end in and of itself. Any answer that derives value from the law does so by neglecting the purpose of the law. Right now you're the cop slowly writing a speeding ticket for a guy with his wife giving birth in the passenger's seat, the law is not about deriving special graces or greater holiness, it's about using simple rules to illustrate the failure of man and the road to salvation, the immensity of love and grace and the terror of the Father's wrath which has been held back for us. It's time you stop getting caught up in the Greek minutiae of the chapters and verses and approach scripture as it was written -- a narrative. A complex, multigenre story all feeding into a metanarrative that is God's plan for humanity from beginning to end, and the terrain of that journey changes with the promises He leaves.
@captainrex2022 so why are you presbyterian again
Well
was baptist
and denominationally I affiliate with Presbyterian just because it's where I go to current;y, have enjoyed it the most.
And the current pastor is splendid.
Along with friends.
And personally don't care about denomination. Just as long as anywhere I can find a church that isn't heretical or blasphemous. Such as lgbtq bandwagon hoppers milking money off of feelings.
And jehovas witnesses type churches
Aren't my only options in the area.
Problem is, the truth is not about how you feel
Thank you captain obvious!
There’s an absolute truth and that is the one held by the Catholic Church
Wrong
The bible holds the absolute truth.
!
And who wrote the bible?
*compiled
I was going to get to that
Feel free to take it from here though
Martin Luther!
Lmao
But yeah, the Bible didn't come together in a vacuum. Catholics get credit for establishing the cannon, which lends credence to their magesterium
