Fool's Day(Light)? Didn't fools, hypocrites, vipers, and blind guides all sit in Moses' seat: law, in Mt 23?

Hypocrite Day, Viper Day and Blind Guide Day just aren't as much fun.

Because otherwise who has the authority to make the rules?\n\nA miracle is a demonstration of power, and we need to believe that those who make the rules are powerful enough to do so.\n\nPeople often need to believe that their leaders are greater than themselves.  So, why would we believe the 10 commandments if Moses did not perform miracles to gain respect?  Why would we not assume Jesus was just another guy who pissed off the wrong people unless people witnessed him perform miracles?\n\nBesides, I don't agree with all of the ten commandments...now what?

This is a VERY IMPORTANT subject I know it is long, but PLEASE read it\n\n\nA challenge where in the Bible does it call Sunday the New Sabbath? search the scriptures you will not find it\n\n\nWas the Sabbath created by God on Mt. Sinai?\n\nAnd on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made. \nGenesis 2:2,3\n\nThe Sabbath was part of creation week\n\n\nWhat does the Bible say about the Sabbath?\n\n“ Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it. Exodus 20:8-11\n\n\nBut we don’t really know which day is the seventh?\n\nIt is highly unlikely that the entire Jewish community forgot which day was their Holy day.\n\nWhich day is the seventh day?\n\nSaturday : the seventh day of the week\n-Webster’s Dictionary\n\n\nAre there other examples of God emphasizing the Sabbath?\n\nHe said to them, "This is what the LORD commanded: 'Tomorrow is to be a day of rest, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. Exodus 16:23 \n\nAnd the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws? See, for that the LORD hath given you the Sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day. So the people rested on the seventh day.       Exodus 16:28-30\nBoth of these examples are before Mt. Sinai and the 10 commandments. \nSpeak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my Sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. Exodus 30:13\n\n\nI am a Christian and I want to follow Christ. Did Jesus keep the Sabbath?\n\nHe went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. Luke 4:16\n\nGoing on from that place, he went into their synagogue, and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, they asked him, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" Matthew 12:9,10\n\nThey went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. Mark 1:21\n\nWhen the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. Mark 6:2 \n\nHe went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. Luke 4:16\n\nThen he went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath began to teach the people. Luke 4:31\n\nOn a Sabbath Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues Luke 13:10\n\n\nBut isn’t Sunday the Lord’s day?\n\nSix days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. Exodus 20:8\n\nIf thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour Him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:\nIsa 58:14  Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. Isa 58:13,14\n\nFor the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath. Matthew 28:8\n\nSo the Son of Man is Lord even of t

Proverbs 17:10\n\n"A rebuke impresses a man of discernment more than a hundred lashes a fool."\n\n\nI know its' not exactly what you're looking for, but that's as close as I could find.

Yes.  The Bible is an amazing book.  Those who are wise will read it and try to understand it.  The fool simply sits back and says "it all a myth"...

The book of moses is about moses, not by moses.\n\nI agree with what you are saying, in general.\n\nAs to your question, people who are uneducated about history misinterpret the bible on a daily and ongoing basis.\n\nThe power of the bible, for me, is not diminished by it's being dated only 3000 years ago.

It's more poetic junk in the Bible that you can really interpret to whatever you want it to be.  This bit seems to be more threats of hellfire for those outside the group.  Religion likes to use the carrot and stick approach to gaining and keeping converts.  This is one example of a stick.  On the carrot side of it, they'll talk about "God's love" and such (ignoring, of course, such contradictions as this).

"But understand this: there will be terrifying times in the last days. People will be self-centered and lovers of money, proud, haughty, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, irreligious, callous, implacable, slanderous, licentious, brutal, hating what is good, traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God" 2 Tim 3:1-4.\n\nThe moral depravity and false teaching that will be rampant in the last days are already at work. The frivolous and superficial, too, devoid of the true spirit of religion, will be easy victims of those who pervert them by falsifying the truth, just as Jannes and Jambres, Pharaoh's magicians of Egypt, discredited the truth in Moses' time.\n\n"Pharaoh, in turn, summoned wise men and sorcerers, and they also, the magicians of Egypt, did likewise by their magic arts. Each one threw down his staff, and it was changed into a snake. But Aaron's staff swallowed their staffs." "But the Egyptian magicians did the same by their magic arts. So Pharaoh remained obstinate and would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had foretold." Ex 7:11-12,22.\n\nExodus does not name the magicians, but the two names are widely found in much later Jewish, Christian, and even pagan writings. Their origins are legendary.

We are all free moral agents, when you break the Laws you cause curses to come upon your own head.  Yahweh loved us enough to give us his Laws of prevention, but mankind has chosen to cast them behind him and make every known excuse not to keep them.  Don't blame Yahweh, look at the man in the mirror or the person in your genealogy who willing and dilberatly chose disobey Yahweh.\n\nRead.......\n\nDeuteronomy 30: 10 if you shall obey the voice of Yahweh your Father, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if you turn to Yahweh your Father with all your heart, and with all your soul.\n\n11 For this commandment which I command you this day, it is not too hard for you, neither is it far off.\n\n12 It is not in heaven, that you should say, "Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it to us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?"\n\n13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, "Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?"\n\n14 But the word is very near to you, in your mouth, and in your heart, that you may do it.\n\n15 Behold, I have set before you this day life and righteousness, and death and evil;\n\n16 in that I command you this day to love Yahweh your Father, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that you may live and multiply, and that Yahweh your Father may bless you in the land where you go in to possess it.\n\n17 But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but shall be drawn away, and worship gods, and serve them;\n\n18 I denounce to you this day, that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land, where you pass over the Jordan to go in to possess it.\n\n19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your seed;\n\n20 to love Yahweh your Father, to obey his voice, and to cleave to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days; that you may dwell in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Yaaqob to give them.

He wasn't.  He was pointing out that you can't pick and choose which of the laws you are going to follow and which you can ignore.  The Pharisees were criticiczing him for breaking the rules, he's pointing out that they have also ignored the rules at times.  His point was that when some of the Old Testament laws no longer served any purpose, then the society should move beyond them.\n\nUnfortunately a lot of Christians didn't get the point either--otherwise the whole gay marriage issue wouldn't be happening.

Please restate the question with clarification. Are you talking about the ten commandments Moses brought down from the mountain?
1010244
Can you follow the 10 commandments?  Can you go without breaking a single one?  Neither can anyone else.  The laws were given to show the need for a messiah to die and atone for our sins.  Rom. 10:4: “Christ is the end of the Law\n\n By setting out a perfect pattern covering the various facets of life, it showed up the Jews as sinners. It became evident that, despite any good intentions and diligent efforts, they could not measure up to its requirements. Using the Jews as a sample of the imperfect human family, the Law exposed all the world, including each one of us, as sinners, liable to God for punishment. (Rom. 3:19, 20)Thus it emphasized the need for a savior for mankind, and it led faithful ones to Jesus Christ as that Savior. In what way? It identified him as the only one who kept the Law perfectly, thus the only human who was sinless.\n\nWas the Mosaic Law ever meant to be binding on all mankind? (Ps. 147:19, 20; Ex. 31:12, 13)\n\nDid Jehovah give any indication to Israel that someday the Law covenant would end? (Jer. 31:31-33; Heb. 8:13)\n\n In the light of this, what is implied by arguing that the Mosaic Law is still in force? In effect, this constitutes a repudiation of faith in Jesus Christ. Why is that so? Because such a view rejects the fact that Jesus fulfilled the Law, thus paving the way for God to terminate it. To persons who professed to be Christians but who were swayed by arguments in favor of keeping the Law, or some portion of it, the apostle Paul forcefully wrote: “You are parted from Christ, whoever you are that try to be declared righteous by means of law; you have fallen away from his undeserved kindness.”—Gal. 5:4; see also Romans 10:2-4.

Since there is no original copy of the OT present today, no one knows what was changed and altered.\n\n\nIsa 29:15  You are in for trouble, if you try to hide your plans from the LORD! Or if you think what you do in the dark can't be seen. \nIsa 29:16  You have it all backwards. A clay dish doesn't say to the potter, "You didn't make me. You don't even know how." \n\n(JPS)Isa 29:16   O your perversity! ...\n\n(KJV+)  Surely your turning of things upside down...\n\n\n\n2Co 11:13  Anyway, they are no more than false apostles and dishonest workers. They only pretend to be apostles of Christ. \n2Co 11:14  And it is no wonder. Even Satan tries to make himself look like an angel of light. \n2Co 11:15  So why does it seem strange for Satan's servants to pretend to do what is right? Someday they will get exactly what they deserve.

Moses is one of the most charismatic leaders that the world\nhas known, but he is not a religious man. He is a lawgiver.\nBut to be a law giver is one thing, and to be religious is\ntotally different. He decides what is right, what is wrong\nfor his people. But right and wrong are not eternal things.\nSomething is right this moment, and the next moment it is\nnot right. Something is right in one context, in another\ncontext it becomes just its opposite. Laws are dead. Once\nyou have decided them, then they are fixed. They don't\nchange with the context, with the situation, with the time.\nThey cannot change, they are not living beings. Moses\nguided his people out of slavery, gave them great hope for\nthe future, inspired them, but he could not make them\nreligious. Because he could not make them religious, he had\nto substitute religion with laws. Laws are a poor\nsubstitute for consciousness. But when consciousness is\nmissing, there is nothing else to do except to give laws,\nand follow the laws. Why could Moses not make his people\nreligious? He himself was not a religious person. His\nencounter with God is nothing but an hallucination. God\nexists not, so those who have encountered God have\nencountered their own imagination. Wandering in the hot,\nburning, fiery desert for years; hungry, thirsty, his\npeople dying, their hope dying -- there seems to be no end\nto this search for the promised land. He goes to the\nmountains to think, to contemplate, to pray to God. He must\nhave been in a hopeless situation. Now the people were\nasking -- and there was no answer -- they were asking,\n"Where is the promised land? It seems you don't have any\nidea where it is. You uprooted us. Of course we were\nslaves, but at least we were surviving. Now we are dying."\nPeople choose slavery for the simple reason that if the\nalternative is death, then it is better to be a slave. At\nleast you are alive and there is a possibility someday you\nmay get out of the slavery. But when you are dead, the\npossibility disappears. So it is not wrong to choose\nslavery when it is an alternative to death. Moses brought\nthese people out of slavery, giving them all kinds of\ndreams, and slowly those dreams started turning into desert\ndust. Days went by, months went by, years went by, and\npeople were dying as they had never seen people dying.\nForty years he was wandering in the desert of the Middle\nEast. In forty years, out of every four people, three had\ndied. Three quarters of the original people were no longer\nthere; and those who remained, you could not call them\nalive either. These forty years had been such a suffering\nthat it would have been a lot better if they had died. They\nwere skeletons. Naturally, Moses was in a tremendous\nanguish, a great turmoil. He had not thought that this was\ngoing to happen. He was not deceiving his people; he was\nvery sincere, his intention was good. There was no way to\nget these people out of Egyptian slavery unless they were\ngiven a great hope that pulled them out of slavery. But\nthis happens to all great leaders: when they succeed, then\ncomes the moment of their failure.\n\nIt happened in India. Mahatma Gandhi led the country for\nforty years and made the people believe, "When independence\ncomes all your problems are solved. There will be no\npoverty, no suffering, no riots, no violence. These\nHindu-Mohammedan riots in which thousands of people are\nkilled, burned alive, are created by the British rulers."\nIt was easy to dump it on the British rulers -- dump\neverything on the British rulers. You are suffering because\nyou are in slavery. You are poor because they are\nexploiting you. You can never live a respectable life if\nyou are under the shoes of the British Empire. People\nbelieved him, just the same way as Jews had believed Moses.\nThey followed him. The independence came... and that was\nthe great moment of failure for Mahatma Gandhi, because it\nis not such a
