One Purpose of the Islamic Revolution in 1979!
May 3, 2007

A horrible transgression of the Islamic Law has just been perpetrated by the President of Iran involving his old Schoolmaster.
The purpose of the Mosaic Law in the Torah, according to Paul in the New Testament, is clearly stated in Galatians and, oddly enough, has to do with a schoolmaster as a great teacher.
The Orthodox, Reform, and Conservative Jews believe it must be kept to the Letter to go to Heaven, which is impossible. Only Messiah did that in the time of his ministry on this planet. He did it for all who put their faith totally in him to save them from
their inability to keep it to the letter, and circumcision was a part of it.
One of the great tenants of the Islamic Revolution of 1979 was to reestablish the strict enforcement of Islamic Law in a Persian nation that had gone secular in many of its practices.
Galatians 3:24-26 – Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. [25] But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
[26] For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 2:8-10 – For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Romans 7:14-25 – For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
[15] For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. [16] If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. [17] Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. [18] For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. [19] For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. [20] Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. [21] I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. [22] For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: [23] But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
[24] O wretched man that I am!
who shall deliver me from the body of this death? [25] I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Paul asked a question in verse 24, and then answered it in verse 25.
The Law of Moses taught me what a great sinner I am by birth and nature.
It led me to exerc ise
what Paul taught as the solution
to my big problem.
Acts 20:20,21 – And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, [21] Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 10:9,10 – That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Romans 10:13 – For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord
shall be saved.
I try daily to keep the commandments of God, but not to be saved by the grace of God, but rather because I am saved by the grace of God.
I John 1:8-10 – If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [9] If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
[10] If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Romans 3:27-29 – Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. [28] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. [29] Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles
? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
Romans 2:28,29 – For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: [29] But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

Iranian President in hot water after kissing teacher’s hand

Bethlehem – Ma’an – Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinajad is being slammed by Iranian newspapers and Islamic groups after he kissed his teacher’s hand during a celebration, on the occasion of Iranian teacher’s day.
The Tehran-based “Hezbollah newspaper” considered the Iranian president’s behavior contradictory to Islamic law, “which prohibits the kissing the hand of any lady, if she is not one of the man’s family members, and to whom he can not get married.”
The newspaper went as far as saying, “the Iranian people have never witnessed such a violation of the Islamic rules since the Islamic revolution in 1979, and such inappropriate behavior could have very serious influence on the sacred Islamic principles and values.”
It is noteworthy that, when the Iranian president kissed his teacher’s hand, she was wearing gloves, and so there was no contact with her flesh.

I wonder if they have to wear gloves when they lop off the head of a man or woman they kidnap. Perhaps because their hands only touch the sword makes it acceptable.
