stop purposefully maligning the truth ... Jesus paid the ransom in order to free humanity from the curse of the law
26.Cursed be he who does not uphold the words of this Torah, to fulfill them. And all the people shall say, 'Amen!'

who does not uphold [the words of this Torah]: Here [in this curse,] Moses included the entire Torah, and they accepted it upon themselves with a curse and an oath. — [see Shevuoth 36a]

I've already shown that the kingdom has been postponed. Your denials are meaningless.

I'm not about to waste my time on you and your continual childish, immature contentiousness. You need to grow up and stop being such a jerk. We're done.

No...We are not done, Mike...This is what you do so immaturely...When proved wrong and you have nothing to back your statements up, you say you're don and then run...You know as well as anyone else on this thread that you spout things and have no scriptural support for the things you say...And when someone calls you on it, this is what you do...

your choice is to not believe the truth .... however God said it, thus those with the Spirit believes.
Matthew 20:28
just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,
and to give His life as a ransom for many."

Galatians 3:13
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming acurse for us

for it is written,
“Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree”—
so that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles,
so that we might receive the promised Spirit through faith.
Oddly enough, the mortality rate remains close to 100% for both Christians and non-Christians alike. So it would seem that the "curse" is still in place. Which is a good thing, otherwise we would have a serious overpopulation problem on our hands.

You know what you sound like? You sound like a Mafia enforcer or a stereotypical religious fanatic / terrorist from the Middle East.

I would explain it this way .

Say you have a spouse that truly loves you .
I don't mean a cheap love I mean a true LOVE.
Then for whatever reason it may be one day you have an affair with another person.
Time goes on and one way or another it comes to the other spouses Knowledge and he/she is crushed , hurt, betrayed , angry and a million other things .

But for the stories sake let's say that there is seldom a love that can be compared to the love this person has for the cheater .
At the same time he/she wants out but the cheater begs to be forgiven and promises repentence.
If there is a true love there then forgiveness is possible BUT .
Do you think that it will work without the proper attitude and sensitivity on the cheaters part from that day on?
Love or no love repentence on the cheaters part will have to be evident for the rest of his life or someone is moving out .
I won't say this can only happen once but twice would be hard to amagine a marriage surviving thru so I'll switch to God.

If you have a "shut the hell up its in the past " attitude do you think that it is gonna work?
When I was young my wife left me twice.
As much as she loved me my attitude said just that and she could not live with it so she went back to her parents.

I know this is a rare and special case but she was happy to come back as soon as she felt the proper repentance and attitude from me .

God is the same way , if you act and think like you don't give a **** then he's leaving you.
He still loves you and will come back if you can come to grips with what your doing and repent tho I would be carefull on how often you cheat on him.
Because we both know once is bad enough , twice and she will be wondering if your truly sorry about the first go round and by the third I think she will have to admit that you don't love her any more and you prefer
Someone else's legs .

DONT CALL YOURSELF A LOVER OF GOD IF YOU CAN'T STAY LOYAL TO HIM!

Its common sense , don't be a hipocrite .
Then all the deeds and works like washing dishes and visiting the poor will automatically be in place.
