God STATES in His Manual called The Bible
that there is NO DICHOTOMY.
Choose to: Obey God or Man
This means that if it is NOT written in God’s Bible, then you “don’t” do it.
And there is NO obeying just “some” of God’s Laws because:
For whoever keeps the whole Law but fails in one point is guilty of breaking all of it. James 2:10
By your Refusing to obey “ALL” of God’s Commandments, you have become a loose cannon on His deck.
Elijah even told you, that you cannot have some of this mixed with some of that:
English
Standard Version
And Elijah came near to all the people and said,
“How long will you go limping between two different opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him;
but if Baal, then follow him.” And the people did not answer him a word. 1 Kings 18:21
God COMMANDED Saturday 7th Day worship on the last day of the week.
Baal worship COMMANDED Sunday 1st day of the week.
Example: Sunday is NOT commanded in God’s Bible, but the 7th day Saturday is COMMANDED as your day of worship and rest.
The key Biblical concepts about sin and repentance “ARE”:
1.) SIN IS TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW:
1 John 3:4, which states, “Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law” 1 John 3:4 KJV.
This verse defines sin as breaking God’s Law, specifically pointing to the Ten Commandments.
2.) The call to repent is central to the Gospel, as Jesus warns in Luke 13:5
a. “I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.” Context: Jesus repeats the urgency of repentance.
The NRSV has “77” verses, 7= a # of completion, with “repent” or its forms, similar to the KJV, though some differ due to translation choices (e.g., Psalm 90:13 omits “repent” in NRSV).
For deeper theological context please REAL- EYES/Realize:
The Ten Commandments, given in Exodus 20, are presented as God’s binding moral Law, not just optional “suggestions”. God’s 10 COMMANDMENTS are just that: “COMMANDMENTS”.
They cover duties to God (e.g., no idolatry= keeping the Sabbath) and to others (e.g., honoring parents, not stealing).=
= Repentance, in this context, involves turning from sin WHICH MEANS:
STOP breaking the 10 COMMANDMENTS!= Stop BREAKING God’s 4th COMMANDment.
In Conclusion:
Here are “40” scriptures to convince you that it is NOT all “Grace”.
Editor’s Note: Little you MUST Obey your FATHER’S Commandments and Grace only applies when you “accidently slip” and break one of His Commandments.
= Grace only applies IF you are doing your best to keep His 10 Commandments.

Editor’s Closing Note:
YOU are DELUSIONAL by your ignoring all of the above “WRITTEN” Biblical FACTS. Especially ignoring scripture that: “Not 1 jot shall disappear until the earth passes away”.
YOU are INCOHERENT (ridiculously NON understandable) when you say we should obey men’s words instead of God’s WRITTEN WORD.
YOU are BOMBASTIC when you verbally proclaim your false independence for God’s 10 COMMANDMENTS, stupidly claiming you can DISobey God because you don’t understand that
Grace is only for
when you slip while trying your best to obey your Father.
Satan’s flakey churches have twisted Grace
into the right to have WILLFUL DISOBEDIENCE,
as THEY all refuse to obey “ALL” OF Father’s 10 Commandments.
Including God’s 4th Commandment: Remember the 7th day to keep it HOLY.
“YOUR” REFUSAL to follow God’s 4th Commandment
Puts YOU into direct VIOLATION OF GOD’S COMMANDS.
= DISobey God AND YOUR Wages for “YOUR” Sinning is YOUR ETERNAL DEATH
Break God’s 7th Day COMMANDMENT, AT your own peril
of ETERNAL DAMNATION.
As God will NOT have different Religions all arguing forever in his Kingdom.
Get it into your head.
This IS a ZERO SUM SITUATION.
DISobey God Written 4th Commandment and DIE.
