See you tomorrow, I have a book to write.

God Bless and I was helpful in the 3 days and 3 night lesson.

Your book will be incorrect if you believe some of the things you have written. Are you interested in truth? Maybe I should be the one writing a book :)

Ah I see.

No, i will not, because it requires critical thinking. I am not going through the entire bible canon and church history just to show you what you should already realize.

And, I said HEBREW LEADERS, not "fathers." Humans lie, including religious patriarchy.

ah, I follow you now. your post sounded like you agreed with him, when he called out the Fathers.

St. Paul stated that we must follow the law in Romain 3:31 - "Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law."

Do we as Christians follow the Law?

Do we observe the Feast of Trumpets, Tabernacle, Unleavened Bread...

two things first. your point about St Mary Magdeline is weird. we have parishes named after her and icons of her all over the place. and we know her life because of two Church Fathers.

priest is just the contracted form of presbyter, which means elder. so yes, they ordained priests because priests are elders.

as for your reference to Romans, I suggest you read more of that chapter.

I would be very careful going and getting interpretations outside the King James Bible.

right, because the Apostles read and wrote in English.

I am writing a book and I have come up upon some scripture in Matthew 26:17 where it states "Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?"

The original Greek version has it as
"Τῇ δὲ πρώτῃ τῶν ἀζύμων προσῆλθον οἱ μαθηταὶ τῷ Ἰησοῦ λέγοντες αὐτῷ· ποῦ θέλεις ἑτοιμάσωμέν σοι φαγεῖν τὸ πάσχα;"

I have read somewhere that the word πρώτῃ means before, which in Greek make sense, but I need some documentation for this. Does anybody have any information where I can find this.
Is their an online Greek dictionary that has this definition?

If you are Greek and don't know how to translate that word. You must be in Karpathos on vacation.

Its beyond wierd. Before it ever became vogue by the secular west to claim Mary Magdelene was an apostle as if this was based on some new scholarship. St. Mary Magdelene is known as "equal to the Apostles".HMMM__38250.1389859765.jpeg

I have a feeling inkarpathos has a learning disability or one of those spectrum asperger's or something. His overanalysis of minor variations in scripture and customs and obsession to reconcile them to his perceived reality can only mean this.

Your probably correct. Most Greeks wouldn't come here with such a mindset. They are to busy sipping on frados at the cafinia.

Just wanted to confirm to @InKarpathos that St Mary Magdalene is indeed named in the icon of her on the wall of our Church, alongside St Photini and Sts Mary and Martha.

Edited to add, we are in the Greek communion.

Everything that has been removed from Christianity,
  1. What we can eat and what we can't eat Read Leviticus 11:1-47
  2. Circumcision, in the USA they do it, but in the rest of the world they don't
  3. That we have the Sabbath on Sunday, instead Saturday which God commanded us to observe.
  4. We don't celebrate the Holidays that where given to us by God, but we have baptized pagan holidays as Christians like Christmas. Read Jeremiah 10:1-4
It would be good to read Matthew 5:17-19 which Jesus states

17Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

If you want a full list, I suggest that you read from Exodus 1:1 till Deuteronomy 34:12 and then decide for yourself what has been removed.



What Day Christ was crucified.
I will give a specific calendar date and a time range when the crucifixion events happened based upon scientific and historical proof. It will be in Greek and English and write now I'm on the first draft of the Greek version. Once that is finished, then I will create the English version. I hope by February to have everything finished.
I'm think of not selling it, but have it just come out on PDF and give it away for free.



Compartmentalization has been a tested and proven method to hide the truth, just look at NASA and all the lies that they say.

Ha! A judaizing Greek, that ‘s a first!
