Frequently Asked Questions

What about those who see this whole covenant, the way you've presented it, Martin, and still think that it smacks of too much legalism for them (i.e. like the denominational garbage that Christ has been setting them free from)?

Love is often a pricey subject and divine peace can sometimes be a costly lifestyle to take. Love frequently embarrasses the proud of heart. The question to be considered is whether or not one would embrace this covenant of Scripture out of a desire to please God or their contemporaries. The desire to please other people is where religiously based situational ethics come into play. The desire to please God with a reaction and an adherence to His judgments and promises in all matters can only produce the greatest liberties because of Scripture after Scripture that assures us that the commandments of God aren't burdensome, but produce a world overcoming lifestyle through Christ Jesus.
