truthseeker1976;195425]I agree with you on most points. Rapture, Easter, Christmas, trinity, going to heaven, and about not having to be circumcised. These are Not Biblical! But I have an issue in some form on your other listings.
Without quoting scripture as of yet, lets look at it logically. Or rather, with a little common sense.
Sunday.
God is God EVERYDAY of the week. Not just on saturday. If a man worships the TRUE GOD but does it on a sunday will he receive the fire?
we are not talking about worship we are talking about keeping holy and not doing your work.
Lets read
8: Remember the sabbath day,
to keep it holy.
9:
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10
: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it
thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
If we kept all days holy then we would starve to death because we could not cook. correct?
did not the Lord kill a man for picking up sticks on the sabbath?
Num 15:32 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness,
they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day.
33: And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
34: And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.
35:
And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.
who am I to say if the man should be burned with fire or stoned, yet the Lord said stone him with stones.
Eating unclean meats
God said in Genesis that everything He made was GOOD. If a man worships the TRUE GOD every sabbath and the day he dies decides to have a ham sandwich, does he deserve the fire?
It is good when you understand the truth. lets read
1Tm 4v 1: Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2: Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3: Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving
of them which believe and know the truth.
4:
For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5:
For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
Do you think Adam and Eve knew the truth? Noah did.
before the flood the same side which Adam and Eve was on. the father and mother of Noah.
lets read
Gen 7v1:
And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
2:
Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female:
and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
3: Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
4: For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.
5: And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.
7: And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8:
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9:
There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
now you see the sanctification(separation) of the things you can eat and the things you cannot eat before the flood. is this not truth? is this not the word of God? all things are good.
all things are not good to eat!
lets look at the judgement of those that eat things that the Lord commanded not to eat.
In Isaiah lets read what the Lord is going to do to those who eat swine flesh and abomnible things
Isa 66v 15:
For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16: For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh:
and the slain of the LORD shall be many.
17:
They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.
you mak the judgement on what that means?
The Law
What does it mean to keep the Law? I for one can't go to church on a saturday. I would lose my job. But now in putting my Job on a pedestal I break the first commandment. By the law even walking long distances on the Sabbath was considered work.
Mt 22:21 They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.
try to keep it holy, God understands and pray that the Lord will unhardened the heart of the boss and grant you the sabbath off.
It worked for me!
The Problem
The letter of the law was all but inpossible to keep. As stated earlier by the letter, even cleaning your house was considered work on the Sabbath. Not to mention all the Ordinances and regulations added because of our transgression of the 10 commandments.
why would Jesus tell you to keep something that is impossible? show me that in the bible?
John said
1Jn 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments:
and his commandments are not grievous.
who should I believe you or John?
The solution
The moral law is the ONLY law that is SPIRITUAL! Even a person in his right mind who has never even picked up a Bible knows that it's wrong to steal or to lie or kill someone. But in this moral law lies a commandment that we all stumble on. REMEMBER THE SABBATH! God said that he made the world in six days and that the seventh is holy and that we should do no work therein. But look at what it's caused.
There are papers about Rome that says that there MARK on the church is sunday. So naturally we who follow the commandments will say that everyone who worships on sunday has received the mark.
Well, what if I tell you that the mark ISN'T sunday? The mark is the BELIEF that sunday is the mark!!
When God uttered the ten commandments out of the cloud, He instructed us to REMEMBER the Sabbath; to KEEP IT HOLY! If you've read the Bible, you might've noticed a subtle theme to not forget that which we've heard from the beginning! Now as to the Sabbath, ask yourself this question. Whos days are God referring to? Are these God's days are man's days He speaks of? Well, if you have your Bible let's find out! Let's finally do what the Bible says and GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING! In Genesis, God created the world in six days. But in this story is perhaps the most overlook words NOT MENTIONED! The first six days ended with "and thus the evening and the morning were the (1st-6th) day. Then on the seventh it states that He rested in it from all his work...... But it NEVER said it ended!! Spiritually we are still on God's seventh day! One of the biggest lies ever told was that it took 6 literal days to create. And once we finally realize what the Sabbath is we will truly find rest. And once again enter back into it!
I can worship the True God anyday of the Week!
I can eat whatever I want. Jesus said that what goes into a man doesn't defile him but what comes out!
This is what it means to be circumcised
If I go to a sunday church and tell them that they are uncircumcised in the flesh because the worship the creation (i.e. the trinity), I will be ridiculed!
If I go to a sabbath (by the letter of the law) keeping church and tell them that they are uncircumcised in the heart (faith of jesus to rest in the sabbath) I will be ridiculed!
Then truly you will understand
Luke 21:14-20
Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
Jesus said
Jn 5:17 But Jesus answered them,
My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
Have we made it to the 7th day or 7000 year? No!
so Jesus work and the Father work.
Jesus said
Mal 3:6
For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
and
Heb 13:8
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Jesus told us to keep the sabbath day holy
Jesus gave us a dietary law
Jesus said no man uncircumcised in heart and flesh will come near him
Jesus said no man has ascended to heaven
who do you fear and Love? Jesus or those who will ridicule you?
Mk 13:13
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
when did Jesus change?
