RE: Did Peter's Vision of the Sheet Mean People & Food?
Quote Ner'arYah:
So let’s stop right here because I would like to point something out. If the stranger dwelling among us becomes one of us are they still a stranger? If you adopt a child into your family do you then treat them differently? Hopefully, you’re a good and fair person that you wouldn’t, and neither would our Father. The stranger mentioned here is for the one that is “not a-part” of his people, those that are outside the covenant. Those who elected to not par-take in following Torah. In other words, this is not a separate law for Yahuah’s (God’s) people and the stranger that once was around them because they would partake in the law. We can battle about this all day, but you will find yourself falling short on nearly most of the old book with stories in reference to Passover in Exodus, and others like Ruth. And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God: (Ruth 1:16) My original comment on this point was that there is only one law for those that left Egypt. Moses didn’t go up once for the Yisra’elite (Israelite), and then again for the sojourner. The mere fact that you are trying to prove your point through the Torah tell you something… Hopefully you caught that…. You’re trying to use the law given to the children of Yisra’el to show me that there was a different law given to the gentile…. But you’re going to the law that was given to the Children of Yisra’el. It’s the same law, no matter how we cut it. The assembly is to have the same statute for both you and the foreign resident as a permanent statute throughout your generations. You and the foreigner will be alike before the LORD. 16 The same law and the same ordinance will apply to both you and the foreigner who resides with you." (Numbers 15:15) End Quote-- Sari83: It is correct to say that there was one and the same law for the Israelite and the sojourner (stranger) living among them. That's exactly what the Scriptures say in regards to the Passover, offerings, and even the Sabbath. [Exod 20:10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: (KJV)] These verses are specifically in regards to the stranger within the gates. There are differences in the law for the stranger outside of Israel. |
