[TruthTalk] Heavy Yoke Light Yoke

[Judy Taylor]

From: "Slade Henson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Please tell me where Scripture says the Law of Moses is a hard yoke? Now... before you get your panties all in a knot, please remember that there is a heavy yoke in Scripture: Legalism (the belief that Law -- if followed -- will grant Eternal Life). Aside form THAT yoke, show me one... -- slade   jt: A yoke of bondage and a yoke of slavery are one and the same Slade; they both have to do with sin. We can be slaves of sin or slaves of righteousness but it is not possible to be both at the same time. A person yoked with bondage is a slave to sin.  This is why the Galatians could not be under the law and being led by the Spirit in faith at the same time. Also there is no way for any Jew to keep the law today no matter how much the zeal because the day of atonement is a thing of bygone days and today there are no sacrifices and no Levitical priesthood period.  judyt   [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of David Miller Kay wrote: > How, then, David, do you rectify Matt. 11:30... > My yoke is easy and my burden is light?   Dave Wrote: That's the point.  The yoke of Christ's covenant is not the same as the yoke of the covenant of the law.  Acts 15:10 speaks about an unbearable yoke. Define that unbearable yoke that they are talking about.   ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."  (Colossians 4:6) http://www.InnGlory.org   If you do not want to receive posts from this list, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and you will be unsubscribed.  If you have a friend who wants to join, tell him to send an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and he will be subscribed.
