The Hebrew Calendar changed to a modern calendar in 359 AD. Historical Standardization: In 359 C.E., Hillel II established a fixed mathematical and astronomical calendar to replace the older practice of sanctifying the new month based on direct eyewitness crescent moon sightings, but this...

The day of the Sun was the first day apparently. That is where we get the name Sunday for the first day of the week. We have a Roman calendar with the Roman names for the days. An interesting question.

The law of Christ was written in our hearts and minds. That law was the law of love. 1 John 3:21-24 Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God, and we will receive from Him whatever we ask, because we keep His commandments and do what is pleasing in His sight. And...

Your still mixing two very different covenants one obsolete covenant and the new covenant of grace. The Lord brought Israel out of Egypt and gave the law to Israel. Your missing the most important point in the Exodus account. Exodus 20:7 Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it to...

Constantine introduced a seven day week to the Roman Empire. This means a Roman citizen could never have practiced the sabbath day (the seventh day). Because Roman citizens worked 7 days and the eighth day was a market day, not a day of rest. Not until the fourth century and the decree of...

You realize that the whole law was a shadow not the reality of our life in the Holy Spirit?

The Sabbath commandment was law and the sabbath commandment carried the sentence of death for disobedience. Obedience to the law cannot save anyone because the law does not grant righteousness. The only law makes everyone aware of sin and it's ramifications. Jesus said that your thoughts and...

Are Gentiles under two covenants or one covenant? The ten commandments were given to Israel at Mt Sinai. Here read the first commandment as written in Exodus 20. Exodus 20:2-3 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. You shall have no...

Genesis is a theological text not a history of the world. Other nations such as Egypt followed a ten day cycle on the calendar in the first century. The Egyptians worked for 8 days and had 2 days off. The Roman calendar was different to the Egyptians. No Weekends: Romans did not have a...

Want to know what sin really is? Don't even think the thought that the ten words define the totality of sin. Mark 7:21-22 For from within, out of the hearts of people, come the evil thoughts, acts of sexual immorality, thefts, murders, acts of adultery, deeds of greed, wickedness, deceit...

Acts 15 is not about circumcision. Acts 15 is not about circumcision and a few more items from the law. Acts 15:5 But some of the sect of the Pharisees who had believed stood up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them and to direct them to keep the Law of Moses.” In my Bible it states...

Exodus 24:8 So Moses took the blood, splattered it on the people, and said, “This is the blood of the covenant that the LORD has made with you in accordance with all these words.” When the covenant was formally ratified at Mount Sinai in Exodus 24:7, Moses took the "book of the covenant" and...

The argument that the Book of Judges should explicitly mention the systemic, macro-level global events of the Late Bronze Age Collapse misunderstands both the specific literary purpose of the biblical text and the localised reality of Canaan during that transition. The defense that these events...

The False Prophet is the guy that will have you executed if you do not worship the image of the beast. AI is just a machine just like a computer but way more advanced. You can use your computer linked to the internet and post on CF. Is a computer the devil's workshop? is the internet the...

I believe that AI will be an instrumental tool in the end times and more than likely employed by the False Prophet. Revelation 13:14-15 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth because of the signs which it was given him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on...

Acts 15 is dealing with the false idea that Gentile Christians need to follow the law of Moses. That is why the question about physical circumcision generated so much fierce debate. Acts 15: 1 Some men came down from Judea and began teaching the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised according...

The paragraph you provided states: "Then, when the Ten Commandments were given, the 4th commandment does not say 'create a new Sabbath.' It says: 'REMEMBER the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.' — Exodus 20:8 To remember something means it was already established and known...The commandment...

You can employ scientific information in your replies if you wish. The paragraph is partially correct regarding the modest size of early Jerusalem and the theological motivations of post-exilic writers, but it is incorrect about the Bronze Age collapse and claims that Assyrian vassalage was...

You have hit on the exact nerve that divides mainstream biblical minimalism/maximalism and drives modern textual criticism: the problem of the "Scribal Update" and the limits of epigraphic survival. You are completely correct that ancient texts were routinely updated, modernized, and harmonized...

Yes, I was asking you. Not a link sorry. I meant your post when I pressed your reply button Christian Chat gave me an empty box.
