Re: Questions about the 'Old Covenant' laws.

I mean. I don't think I am fully grasping it at all. Like in corinthians it says not to defile the holy temple. That is new testament, so I said to my deacon, "What does it mean to defile? I mean just to go against the will of? Because it doesn't mention Tattoo in the new testament anywhere. Defile means to make impure or biblically un-holy. But when the rich man asked jesus what must I do to enter the kingdom of heaven he listed the ten commandments and said to love everyone as we love ourselves and that was it. So wouldn't by jesus definition to defile be to break any of the commandments he mentioned" And my deacon said he answered what it took to get into heaven. If he had asked him what it took to stay in heaven and to keep from falling from grace he would have given him a seperate answer.
