• 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.

  • 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.

Yes and that text says nothing about "on." Your quote is a demonstration of how they spoke about time. It has nothing to do with the sabbath as the new moon inclusion proves.

No it doesn't. The few following of the discussed referenced verses is very interesting.

You keep your sabbath and I'll keep my Jesus (Matthew 11:28-30).

What is codified in the Bible is upheld, I do not ascribe to tradition... you are the one ignoring what Jesus said unfortunately.
If I replied in common everyday words you'd only report me. So the deal for me is you do ignore even the words of Jesus as aptly proven by quotes and other posters besides me.

Yes the commandment to not steal is fuflfilled in and by Jesus (Luke 24:44). Does that mean we're free to sin? No. Does that mean we keep the law by not sinning? No, John 13:34 and Luke 6:31.
Do you steal? No? It is because the Commandment says to not steal. This is what Paul taught...

Romans 7:7
...I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.

The sabbath requirement is rescinded as Romans 14 and Colossians 2 point out.
What verses in those two chapters says anything about the 7th day Sabbath, that was Sanctified and Hallowed by Him, being changed?

You do realize the verse you referenced in Luke 24:44 speaks of the law of Moses but says nothing of the Law of God.
Moses wrote down some laws on parchment.... instituted for the Israelite's for societal governance in temporal as well as spiritual matters.

God wrote down some Laws in stone... instituted for all mankind as a warning for what sin is.

If you know the truth and refuse to honour God in it, then yes, that is willful rebellion against God.

Then maybe you should have referenced those instead of scrambling to explain your poorly referenced post. It appears you are lily pad hopping.

The new moon in that verse can be understood as monthly which dovetails perfectly with another verse talking about living on the new earth...

Revelation 22:2
In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.


You see, we will be living in our "country" dwellings and come to the city every week for worship of the Creator and every month to receive from the tree of life.

Saying that because somebody doesn't practice Sabbath observance according to Jewish or SDA tenets equals rebellion against God seems to be confusing ceremonial with moral law. Frankly, this represents an abandonment of true Christian ethics in favor of legalism.

As I have previously stated, Jesus is indeed our spiritual rest... the Sabbath however refers to our temporal rest that God blessed us with to spend dedicated time with Him.

Good point... the moral law was written by God himself on permanent stone.... the ceremonial law was written by Moses on parchment and was temporary. The tablets of stone were kept inside the ark of the covenant, the scrolls of parchment were kept on the outside. God is about details and this little detail speaks volumes about the difference between the two.

Speak your mind... with me, you have safe passage for your thoughts on the matter. I am not a SJW who is triggered by reality.
