How come we shouldn't practice ALL the things Christ did???
Christ was under the Jewish religious law, we are not (different covenant: "we are no longer under the law, but under grace" {the UNmerited favor of Christ's blood sacrifice on the Cross, which is the ONLY symbol of death, burial & resurrection because that is WHERE it happened}.....we are "free from the law" {animal sacrifices, merited}).....that is why He was doing those things then....."for the lost sheep of the house of Israel.....that covenant (the Kingdom church of Acts 2;
only Jews were there) was put on "hold"....it will come off "hold" at the "rapture" when the LORD GOD Jesus Christ deals again with Israel, as He promised to do [overlapping covenants THEN in the book of Acts has produced a lot of confusion since; "church" means "assembly of believers" & there have been different types of assemblies in scripture].
....we have been in the Holy Spirit directed covenant of the Body of Christ church for the last 2,000 years, "by grace through faith" (started years AFTER Acts 2 by the Apostle Paul, to us gentiles:
Romans through Philemon is our "mail"; study all of scripture, but know what is your mail & your covenant, and what isn't, so that doctrines won't be mixed-up anymore).
The "sight" stuff (Tongues, water baptism, visions, touch healing, dreams, etc. isn't "Faith") that was part of the Kingdom church (Israel) & for new "B. of C." Christians THEN, before all of scripture was written down & complete, while "faith" ALONE is for the "Body of Christ" church NOW (not a physical/worldly building or organization, but spiritual:
"We walk by Faith, not by sight"); Paul had to write a letter to the Jews to tell them what this "Faith" stuff was that the new Christians were practicing, something the Jews had forgotten about [Hebrews 11:1; but he left his name off the beginning of the letter so as not to confuse the gentiles, or, non-Jews].
For sound doctrine & fresh insights from the Holy Spirit, and help spread the site around the internet & everywhere else to end suicide, depression & incited, outward violence [this will help end some of satan's deceptions].

What are 10 things that Christ did that we shouldn't do?

To: Air Force Guy: Why "10" things??? Do you write for David Letterman?? 1. Touch healing 2. Water baptism 3. Die on a cross 4. Try to walk on water 5. Try to teach the Jews common sense 6. Try to teach the Arabs common sense 7. Raise the dead, including yourself when you die 8. Be born supernaturally without a man's sperm 9. Try to walk from Nazareth to Jerusalem, and back, by yourself, in broad daylight 10. Try to be God

Yeah, I agree with number ten. Satan tried to be God and look where it got him.
