1) Paul isn't talking about the seventh-day Sabbath in Col. 2:16 -- see A Study on Col. 2:16-17 for details. 2) The verses only make sense if the believers at Colossae _were_ keeping the days that are mentioned and were eating and drinking on those days and were being judged by outsiders for...

This is the kind of thing where one should consult someone who is an expert in Greek. I asked Dr. Shepherd about this and he said: "While it is true that the tense of the verb “to be” eimi and “to dawn” epifosko are both in the imperfect tense, the question is really...

54. "This is where early Advent and JW theology merged, not only here but in many ways, including co-authoring books of false doctrines. The title of _the_ book was "Plan of Redemption, Nelson Barbour and Charles T. Russell ... and Barbour was a Millerite who went through the 1844 failure with...

Jesus aid: it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath. Who told you that we should be shamed?

The Sabbath drew nigh--it was not yet the Sabbath when the women preparade the spices.[/SIZE][/FONT]

Me neither! And it turned out not to be so helpful after all. RATS!

Tis quite so: "the Jews counted parts of a day as a full day. In the Jewish tract Schabbath, we find a discussion about the length of three days. "But how much is the space of an Onah? Rabbi Jochanan says either a day or a night." In the Jerusalem Talmud we read, "Rabbi Akiba fixed a day...

You are looking at pre-fall, he is looking at post-fall.

You have a serious reading problem. It simply says that "it was the preparation day"--it doesn't say that it began then. The preparation day (our Friday) always comes before the Sabbath--the two do NOT occur on the same day. And the preparation day is NEVER a Sabbath.[/SIZE][/FONT]

Huh?!? Where'd you get that idea from? Christ's death is the atonement of our sins (cheirographon). The law remains to point out what is sin, where exactly we have sinned and our need of a Saviour and who that Savior is.[/SIZE][/FONT] That intrepretation doesn't make sense to me...

MGI Luke 23:54 And it was the preparation day and the Sabbath was dawning.

Love those blood-shot eyes!

Circumcision wasn't a ceremonial law. It was given to Abraham. The Sabbath is a moral law, part of the Ten Commandments written by God on tables of stone, based on the principle of love, placed inside the Ark and covered by the mercy seat--it was also created at creation, before sin. The...

What was nailed to the cross (cheirographon) was the record of our debt, because we broke the law and sinned.[/SIZE] The "sabbaths" of Col. 2;16 refers to the day of Atonement and the blowing of trumpets (ceremonial sabbaths which weren't feast days (heorte, mistranslated in the KJV as...

We were created good (Gen. 1:31), but then we chose to sin Gen. 3).

If they claim to be Christians but discriminate against others for the color of their skin, of if the pastor demands sex from the female parishoners is it not right, if not your duty to warn others away from such? God only sanctified the Sabbath. I don't know of any text in the Bible as to how...

Der Alter, I love you!!! Dr. Ron du Preez is helping to polish and get ready for publication in a scholarly journal a research study I had done on the levitical sabbaths (Lev. 23) and this will be a great source to add! Oh, I could kiss you! ROFL!! ;)

In Hebrew thinking a part of an 'onah (day) is an onah. So, Christ only had to be in the tomb a little over 24 hours.

Like you did on the cherub over the Ark?[/SIZE] It also depnds on how you use Ellen White: if you use her works as an exegetical analysis of scripture, then you are wrong. If you use her homelitically, then you are on more the right track. I don't call Ellen White a prophet. Luckily, we...

Right on! As I recall, only our Friday was called the day of preparation.
