Confessing Jesus is it enough?

[Waiting on Him]

(sigh...)

Nothing else?
Nothing else is the Temple?

1 Corinthians 3:16 NIV
Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?

We’re discussing the temple where the veil was rent.

 

[Waiting on Him]

Jesus’ flesh

 

[SteVen]

God the Father never commissioned Solomon to build a temple made of stone.

You seem to have an axe to grind. I'm not interested.

We’re discussing the temple where the veil was rent.

Correction. We're done discussing that.

[Mr E]

I think there are several meanings of "the veil".
1) The literal veil in the Temple.
2) The figurative veil you have pointed out.
3) The literal veil over Moses' face.
4) The figurative veil over the Israelites eyes.
5) The veil that separates this physical life from the afterlife.

And more...

@Waiting on Him just showed you from scripture, without having to speculate, what the veil was representative of.

Good. I'm done with him.

I’m sorry I offended you, I hope you can forgive me. I do get frustrated often.

I believe it to be the way, not saying I’ve entered.

If so I believe I’d have a little more humility.

 

[Mattathias]

There was certainly some of that. But...
I see him deconstructing the law as he went. Jesus was the end of the law, correct?

He is the fulfillment of the Law.

In Matthew 5 he treats the law as hearsay.
"You have heard that it was said to the people long ago... But I tell you..." (six times)

Jesus doesn’t just repeat what Moses said. “Moses said, but I tell you …”

There is a change in the Law.

Even the forerunner was a part. "... until John..." Then what?

Matthew 11:13 NET
For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John appeared.[a]

/

Then came Messiah time.

A change? More than that. (done away)
We are no longer under the guardianship of the law.

Galatians 3:23-25 NIV
Before the coming of this faith,[a] we were held in custody under the law,
locked up until the faith that was to come would be revealed.
24 So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith.
25 Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.

[SteVen]

There is a change in the Law.

I would say, "No, the law did not change."
It was replaced with the new covenant of grace.
We are no longer under the law.

Hebrews 8:7, 13 NIV
7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant,
no place would have been sought for another. ...
13 By calling this covenant “new,” he has made the first one obsolete;
and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear.
