Reformed Samaritanism General Overview

The New testament is good; but beware, as it is plagued with contradictions 
The New testament can be a powerful tool to make Gentile peoples come to embrace Bible’s monotheism. 
But the New testament isn’t perfect, as it’s pages are plagued with brazen contradictions. 
Let’s consider one example: Suppose someone comes to you making the following claim-- “I believe 
salvation comes from faith in Jesus perfect obedience to God’s Law, and not from my imperfect obedience to
anything the Law has commanded; But, since I was born in a Jewish home, and I also happen to be 
circumcised, I must therefore observe the Jewish feasts prescribed by the Law”. Would you believe anything 
else said by such person? Wouldn’t you consider him to be a brazen liar? 
If so, then why was it o.k. for Paul to preach “salvation by faith [and without the works of the Law]” while at
the same time he would personally keep observing the feast prescribed by the Law? As is written: «When 
they desired him [Paul] to tarry longer time with them, he consented not; But bade them farewell, saying, “

must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem”
: but I will return again unto you, if God 
will”»- Acts 18:20-21, KJV. 
368


«No man should act as a judge in a cause he loves, or a cause he hates, for he isn't likely to find fault in what
he loves, nor find merit in what he hates» 
How are sins forgiven? 
If God’s Law (the Torah, the Prophets, and the Writings) states that forgiveness of sins comes through sincere
repentance (“Perhaps the house of Judah will hear all the calamity that I am planning to do to them, in order 
that they may turn, each one from his evil way. Then I would forgive their iniquity and their sin…The 
sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.”- Jeremiah 
36: 3, & Psalm 51:19, Tree Of Life Bible); And then comes the Gospel and tries to refute the Law, claiming 
instead that forgiveness of sins doesn’t come through sincere repentance, but rather through belief in Jesus 
(“that all who believe in him will receive forgiveness of sins through his name” - Acts 10:43); Then the 
disputation between Christians and Hebrew believers is finally settled; the case has been closed, and there’s 
nothing else to discuss. Why? Because the truths revealed in the Law [the Hebrew Scripture] are final and 
irrevocable [since the Law cannot be abrogated or broken, according to Deuteronomy 4: 2]. And the gospel 
seems to agree with this, when it quotes Jesus saying the following: “… and the Scripture [the Law] cannot 
be broken” (John 10:35)
