Re: [TruthTalk] Keeping the Commandments

Yes, I understand the difference between "inspiration" and "revelation" however I don't believe this was the

problem with Solomon.  The law was not lost in his generation and he had access to the direction given for

kings in Deuteronomy 17:14-20.  I don't know if he had his own personal copy as instructed but we can see

by his life that he did everything opposite to what was instructed - Solomon multiplied horses, silver and gold,

and women.  He did it all and I don't believe that with all that wisdom he didn't know what he was doing.  He

was an early disciple of Frank Sinatra.   jt

No, not at all.   You do not see a differecne between "inpsiration" and (a) "revealtion?"

 

There were, of course, some things the ancients did not undersand when it was written.   I do not think that whoever wrote Gen 15 understaood that the seed of Abraham was Jesus Christ  --  God on eath.

JD are you saying that Solomon didn't understand what he was writing?

He apparently understood when he asked God for wisdom rather than riches and God was pleased with his choice.

To me it seems he was tripped by the same lust that got hold of his father; David repented but Solomon didn't know

when to quit and kept on with it.  jt

So what, may I ask?  !!   There is a big difference between "inspiration" and "revelation."

Yes, the choices he made for his own life were stupid.  He lost the kingdom and his children suffered

for them, but his writings were inspired by the same Spirit who inspired the rest of scripture.  judyt

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this [is] the whole [duty] of man.  ECC 12:13   

Was Solomon stupid?

SO you keep them Dave?

All of them?

If your boss gave you 10 instructions to follow every day at work, would you expect employee of the month for keeping just 8?

    However, I am curious as to your explanation.  Do you really believe the Lord does not expect you to keep the commandments?

==============================================================

Since Paul says that if you break one law you have broken the whole law, I would say the whole law was unkeepable.  If I were a Jew living under the law, I would have broken most of them.  If I were under that law today I would have broken most of them.  Thank God, I am not under the law.

How many of them do you keep?
