Amen Brother !! :)

Ya see, that's the "thing" ... This "Rightly Divided" , deception. Dividing God's Word, "The Everlasting Gospel, into different.. Salvation plans, or periods. God isn't bound by "time" like we are ... He sees the whole earth's history as one little ball, right in front of Him ... Malachi...

I'm GLAD to disillusion you, but !! God's 7th Day Sabbath IS required for the Body of Christ. Just as all the other 9 Commandments are required, if you want to be like Jesus and HAVE His Righteousness. God's Sabbath is His mark of authority and our obligation, giving Him honor and glory...

The "first order of business for the Beast" in 1545, seems to have been "damage control". Due to the damage done by the Protestant Reformers, outing the Papacy for who they really are and where their allegiance lies. ... The Council of Trent, and Ignatius of Loyola establishing the Jesuit...

Our misunderstanding, and disagreement, ... I believe, ... stems from our different understandings of "works" and "salvation". So ! Nuf Sed !!

You are right ... EWQ ... I was addressing "NightTwisters" understanding of "works in relation to salvation" ... Taken out of context, one might think I promoted, " once saved, always saved." ;-) Luk 23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If you be Christ...

AMEN Brother :) The Mother feeding her baby is BOTH ... it's a work of Love !! A WORK of the Heart

NightTwister, !! ... I never said that, "you have to work, for salvation" .. You are the one that keeps saying that !! I'm saying that we are obliged to work & serve the Lord, and our neighbor, because of our Salvation. I'm sorry, I can't be more clear or understandable to you.. NT ...

lrs68 ... I appreciate your generalized summary of the Book of Revelation, as I've been quite interested in the Books of Daniel & Revelation relationship as well. "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to show to his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent...
