You ever give any thought to what will the 7th millennium be like? Will King David and Yeshua/Jesus be ruling together at the same time? Who are those called to be kings and priests? Will we still be preparing to be the bride? Or is there a Queen during this time? What will it be like with no war and all the weapons of war being burned? Eze_39:14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search. Will the unborn be raised up and who will be their guardians? Will there be a mixture of those who were raptured and changed to immortal bodies with those who crossed over into the millennium who were not changed? Yes, I still have many questions and much to learn, but there is no crime in asking and seeking.
well for one thing the Gentile and the Christian isn't under Moses.
The Gentile was never given the law and the Christian has died.
Yes of course i agree that God is far greater than any human tradition. but that seems trivial, and wisdom is explicitly not simple. what is this thread really about?
what particular "human tradition" are you upset with?

so you are SDA huh? is that what this is really about?
If that's the case no need to make some pretense about 600, 60, 6.
we are quite familiar with sabbath keeping threads lol
Christ chose the 8th day to rise, Firstfruits, and He never ceased working on a 7th day.
this is something amazing.
it's not accidentally amazing. it's on purpose.
((reads on))

A young couple of newlyweds are preparing dinner. The young wife slices off both end of the roast and then places it in the pan to cook. The husband asked "Why do you slice off both ends of the roast?" She answered, "I don't know, this is how my mother does it." A few weeks later, the newlyweds are at the house of the young wife. The husband saw his mother-in-law slice off both ends of the roast and then place it in the pan. The young man asked his mother-in-law, "Why do you slice of both ends of the roast?" She answered, "I don't know, this is how my mother does it." So a a few more weeks pass, and the newlyweds are at grandma's house for a roast dinner. The young man asks grandma, "Why do you slice off both ends of the roast?" And grandma answered him "Silly boy, to make it fit in the pan."
All I am saying is, question the traditions you hold dear and near. Which one's please the LORD? Which one's are grounded in the Word? Which one's are a mixture of truth and lies? Does it even matter to God?

Paul speaks of 7 different laws. Can you name them? Can you separate them? Can you understand Paul correctly?

2Pe 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

If you place yourself under the law, then you will automatically transgress the law. When you transgress the law, the the wrath of God is upon you.
Romans 4:15
For the Law brings about wrath, but where there is no law, there also is no violation.
So why would following the law carry such a penalty?
Simply because our righteousness is not derived from the law. Our righteousness is not due to how good we can be. We are not righteous because we are obedient.
Back to the start, Jesus is ground zero for our righteousness.
The Christian life is dominated by the Holy Spirit. Everyday, we rely on the Lord to guide us in all our behavior.
Trying to obey the written law is a work of the flesh.
Walking under the law is a constant reminder of your sin. That is what the law will give you. A conviction of your sin and the impending wrath of God.

This word is also used for the "traditions of the apostles" which are in fact the teachings of Christ. Paradosis means that which is handed down. Christ handed down His teachings to the apostles, and they in turn handed them down to faithful men. These teachings are NOT manmade but come from God.
Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. (2 Thess 2:15)
So Christians need to be able to distinguish between the two. Any thing contrary to the teachings of Christ would be manmade, or anything manufactured out of thin air.

I tend to agree. The days like Christmas and Easter are astronomical yearly occurrences. Solstice, and a lunar event, I actually can't remember the technical term but it's when the Moon is brightest in the sky for being at its closest to the Earth in its orbit. Now those are not man-made holidays strictly speaking, I've heard out the long boring evolutionary meditation lectures of the self-made capitalist culture too, but even in Artificial Intelligence high culture, so to speak, I have yet to come across anyone who thinks a brother created the Solar System.
It's probably true that too many people spend too much time arguing and debating over the exact days of the year a religious observance is supposed to be celebrated, besides those pagan culture folks who advertise strictly astronomical gatherings for music and an beer tent in the alternative music press.

Do you understand the difference between the two covenants?
The old covenant between Israel and God which was based on obedience to the law.
The new covenant that Jesus established in His own blood.
Luke 22:20
And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup, which is poured out for you, is the new covenant in My blood."
