Is it OK for our churches to have Christmas trees, bingo games, or Easter egg hunts?ts,

[hornetguy]

and no bingo remember Jesus turning over tables ,

You think those money changers were playing bingo?

 

[Niki7]

Thank you and you likewise. i also rebuke and point out falsehood like i see in this thread.

Well actually I was being sarcastic, for better or worse. I am not familiar with your posts other than the ones in this thread; but that sword of the word we are told about? Try to remember it is double edged and you are going to hurt yourself with it.

Receive it or not.

Pretty good odds Jesus was born early fall, maybe mid Septemberish.

Exchange of monies for gain.

John 2:15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;

John 2:16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.

Now churches have kiosk in the foyers so that you can use debit/credit to donate to the church. Times are changing. Torah Observant people do not go online to buy or sell on the Sabbath, so that the Sabbath is guarded and kept holy, undefiled from all those things we have 6 other days to accomplish. 6/7th of time is yours. 1/7th per week is to be the LORD/YHWH.

Sukkot, The Feast of Booths, aka the Feast of Tabernacles?

If you see this as your "job" here, I predict a short tenure....

This is, presumably, a discussion forum, not a debate team....
You and crazy horse both need to remember what Mark Twain said.....

Sssshhh , your spoiling it Hornetguy ( i like the nake btw ) im trying to provoke a response from Locoponydirtbag the religious nutcase. Im just toying with its weak mind.

 

[lawrence101]

Dont dignify his dishonesty with any kind of response. He has already shown himself dishonest, incapable of any integrity, now a crass name caller. He is not worthy of your time or effort.

What's the problem now Locoponydirtbag cant take what you dish out of that lying fork tongue of yours , you cowardly little wimp. If you had any guts you'd answer this post .

Its called the sword of the spirit not word and i know it quite well read it thru several times and im a student of Bible prophecy . You too can be hurt by it remember , as im sure we all can . We can also use it to help and editify others not to hurt anyone.

Obviousely no, but i'd say he would have done the same if they were playing bingo there.

I dont mean to be nosey Grace911 but what is the significance of the date in your avatar/signature ( Watch for News September 22, 2023. ) ?

Well I made a mistake there even though I am familiar with the correct wording. Nothing changes though. Do you really think you are edifying others? Their responses to you indicate otherwise. Still your choice in how you want to exchange with others here.

The date is 1290 days after March 11, 2020 (the covid19 lockdown by the world health organization - the WHO). On March 11, 2020 every church, synagogue, temple and mosque around the entire world was shut down. Corporate prayers were not allowed. The Bible calls is the bullocks of our lips. The End of Days have arrived and we now have until 2044/2045 till the end of this 120th Jubilee cycle, which started with year 0/3836 BC. You will need to understand and have the wisdom that a Jubilee cycle is 49 years plus 1 year. There are 120 49 year cycles totaling 5880 years that man has been allotted.

Genesis 6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. Years is Strong's H8141
שׁנה שׁנה
shâneh shânâh
shaw-neh’, shaw-naw’
(The first form being in plural only, the second form being feminine); from H8138; a year (as a revolution of time): - + whole age, X long, + old, year (X -ly).

This revolution of time is the cycle of Sabbatical and Jubilee cycles. Man is allotted 6 days/6 millennial days (not actual 1000 but that is the expression used to say a very long time or 980 years per each millennial day.)

2020 was the middle of Daniel's 70th week. The 120th cycle began in 1996 and will end in 2044. 2020 is the middle. We can know and understand as Daniel was told chapter 9 of Daniel. The beginning of the 70 jubilee cycles started in 1386 BC when Moses was told at the burning bush to go and get God's people out of Egypt. In 1379 BC at Mount Sinai, God gave Moses the Covenant to read to all the people and all the people said "All that God has said "we will do"." It was a Marriage Covenant. 7 Jubilees later, David was anointed and became King over all 12 tribes until he died and his son Solomon became King over all 12 tribes. While David was King he restored Jerusalem and we are told in Daniel that after 62 more Jubilee cycles that the "Messiah - should read the saints" will be cut off or in the actual event it was Locked Down/Shut Down.

Daniel 12:11 says that And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

If you would like to understand more - I will try my best with the Helper to share.

That is very rude and uncalled for, We are all like the parable of the day workers. No matter what time of the day you join, we all get the same pay, and those who came earliest were complainers that those who came later in the day all got the same wages.

I just found out the true meaning of easter a few months ago. I was sickened at the meaning behind the egg hunt. I grew up hunting eggs, and had my daughter doing it. I was actually doing pagan rituals! I wish I would’ve asked questions when I was younger, because all of us has thought at one point in time was does this have to do with the bunny , and eggs yet we blindly did it anyways. We don’t don’t do eggs hunts anymore, we don’t even call it ester we call it resurrection day! That’s the day my Jesus conquer the grave!

Yes I did it out of ignorance, and I believe a lot of Christians still are. The Bible says, my people parish for the lack of knowledge. As for me and my house we repented for practicing in pagan rituals we are done with trees also. We need to remember Jesus is enough yo reach the lost we don’t got to mix the world into it. That is what people are sick of and need freed from is this world. If this world is not our home then why are we bringing wielding things in to reach the lost? Jesus is more than enough. That’s just my opinion.

Um.... what does that have to do with playing bingo?

I guess that i just never did bother with easter bunny and egg hunts, never did Santa Clause either. The only Christmas decorations my wife and I ever did was a nativity. We used to skip easter sunday at church each year. We kept all the celebrations low key if you will. We never judge those who did we just didnt. We taught our kids the story of Jesus, birth, ressurrection, all that stuff, and some cool church history concerning the holidays.
I have never liked holidays too much, probably from growing up dirt poor. Ive always hated commercialism that could be a factor too.
