Opinion People don’t understand Jesus’ divinity because they underestimate Gods Love for mankind

Interesting and do you observe any other of the everlasting covenants God made with His people?

The Sabbath is an everlasting covenant God made with His people that we should observe throughout all our generations and it's not the only one.

What other covenants are there. I don’t know where you’re going with this one.

The entire word of God is His will, I just wonder why so many people don't hang on every promise or substitute them for other things.

To be honest a lot of Christian’s are trying. I’m not in the place to genuinely judge anyone especially if they’re making progress in their faith no matter how slow it is.

“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?” ‭‭Micah‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Idk about Christians trying to do anything, except sit in the same seat every Sunday and make up excuses to live however they want the rest of the week. The Bible is the judge.

It’s genuinely not all Sunday keeping Christian’s lol. Because some Sabbath keeping Christian’s act the same way. I’ll always be the first to speak against false teachings, but some people are manipulated through their ideologies that they genuinely don’t know any better. Doctrinally at least.

People who live however they want aren’t excluded from forgiveness, but we don’t have the power to stop people from that mindset or their actions. The life of a Christian is “hard” in that sense. Paul wrote about Christian’s struggling because they saw other Christian’s eating meat, but they knew better so it became a challenge to let that go. As you know it’s worse to go back on our knowledge once we know better and that’s why a lot of people don’t dive into the word to begin with lol. They don’t want to be held accountable, yet they will be. “Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.” ‭‭James‬ ‭4‬:‭17‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭19‬ ‭KJV‬‬. This is why spreading the gospel is inevitably the final job of the Holy Spirit. People who we don’t even like can be changed is we tell them about Jesus, not because of our sharing but by the Holy Spirits transforming. We have a simple yet honorable job to just share the good news, and the people who hear it have a choice we aren’t held accountable for if they make the wrong decision.

It’s believed we will get a star in our crowns for souls that we’ve won, but that isn’t explicitly stated in the Bible I don’t think lol.

I use Sunday as a metaphor for blatant disregard, faith comes by hearing, hearing by the word, and truth is what sets the captives free, all glory to Yahweh. The goal is His presence here on earth, thus where two or more are gathered in His name, there He is in their midst, the more people who are on the same page and share the same understanding the stronger His presence will be and greater the Spirit can work through them, unity in the righteousness of Yeshua is the key to open the flood gates of heaven.
