• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

re: "Verse 2, which is not disputed, puts the Resurrection on the first day of the week, as does Luke 24:1."
 
I don't see where those 2 verses say that the resurrection took place on the first day of the week. What do you have in mind?

I can only assume that you're being deliberately obtuse.

In any case, this thread is in breach of EC rules.

Radagast,

re: "I can only assume that you're being deliberately obtuse."

How do you define "obtuse" as you are using it?
 


re: "In any case, this thread is in breach of EC rules."

Perhaps you could move it to where it belongs. And I trust that you don't think that that should be the trash bin.

I see the point. We know that the empty tomb was discovered on Sunday. But that's not necessarily when Jesus rose. Mark 16:9 says that Jesus rose on the first day. Mark 16:2 says that the women went to the empty tomb on the first day. Not exactly the same thing.

Mat 28 has a great earthquake with the angel rolling away the stone, all on the first day. Again, this isn't unambiguously stated as when Jesus rose.

re: " Mark 16:9 says that Jesus rose on the first day."


And that is the only scripture (as it is in the KJV and similar ones) that says that. And that was the point being explained to the poster mentioned in the OP.
