Colossians 2:16-19

12 While dead in your sins God who raised Christ from the dead forgave you all trespasses having quickened you together with Him. Nailing it to the cross and removing it altogether, Christ blotted out the damning law against us; and putting off and ruining the rulers and the authorities [of darkness 1:13], He publicly held them up to shame, triumphing over them in it. [If ye then be raised with Christ 3:1], THEN THEREFORE, don’t you let yourselves be judged and condemned by anyone (of the world 2:8, 20) in your eating and drinking or with regard to your eating and drinking of feast, whether of month’s or of Sabbaths’—all which shadows forth what soon must be, the BODY and SUBSTANCE OF CHRIST!

Let no man not holding to the Head [but] puffed up by his fleshly mind, who conceitedly meddles in what he knows nothing about (the mystery which is Christ 1:28), with his pretentious humility and angelic worship beguile you (with enticing words 2:4) of your reward.

Because holding to the Head nourishment being ministered, all the Body (of Christ’s Own 1:18) by joints and bands [of faith 2:12 Hosea 11:4; peace Ephesians 4:3; and charity Colossians 3:14], and knit together (in love 2:2), will grow with the growth of God.

"Don't you let yourselves be judged by anyone in regard to your eating and drinking of Christ the Substance of Sabbaths' Feast either Lord's Supper of month's or Sabbaths' Feast, which are but the shadow of what imminently must come for you holding to the Head, the Body growing with the growth of God Christ being the Nourishment ministered."


Since having resurrected from the dead "on the Sabbath in fullness of day", "Jesus having entered into his Own Rest as God in his own, He gave them Rest, so that THEREFORE A KEEPING OF SABBATH REST DAY FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD REMAINS."

Tha twas a great addition to the bible, so when will your version come out. Come keep the law and be saved by your works, and not by faith,

That addition equates to salvation by grace plus law, faith plus works. (Galatians 1:6-9)

That's an interesting collection of thoughts. Thanks for sharing.

It's "strange" that you think otherwise! Surely you have an agenda in declaring otherwise, and in attempting to marginalize any other opinion as "strange?"

What Barney is stating is Seventh-Day Adventist (SDA) doctrine. He probably should have given full disclosure about the origin of his statements. But there you have it.

You are right although it does not seem BF tried to hide his <sources>. There is nothing wrong with the Law for one's source of Divine Authority - Divine Law which never changes -- which is in harmony with Reformed Protestant faith and teaching and if you want to take exception to that, then you are the one at fault without a doubt in my ultra Reformed Protestant opinion.
SDAdventism as well as WCrucifixionism 'Sabbath-theology', diverge not a decimal degree from universal Christianity's, which is the ROMAN CATHOLIC stance of indoctrination and authoritarianism that SUNDAY-sacredness is based on and is rooted in, namely the DECEPTION THAT CHRIST ROSE FROM THE GRAVE ON A SUNDAY -- which SDA will defend with its very own existence.
AS SEEN ON THIS BOARD EVERY TIME SDA DEFENDS THEIR SABBATH ostensibly against Sunday worshipping fellow Christians.

I just said he should have disclosed them. It would have been helpful.

Well, show me a quasi translator the while I am showing you, SDA and the rest, not only quasi, but halve-baked and fraudulent, totally incompetent and totally fraudulent, FALSE translators of Colossians 2. Let God be both Witness and Judge!

Prove it.

You're confusing. 1st you admit that the 10 Commandments are part of the overall Law, and then you ask me to "prove" that the 10 Commandments are a subset of the Law? Why should I prove what you already admit is true?

If the 10 Commandments are a subset of the Law, and they are, then the command to "observe the Sabbath" is part of the Old Covenant, and not a requirement either for Gentiles, who never were under the Law, or for Jews in the NT era.

It really is your burden to prove the 10 Commandments are *not* a subset of the Law. They were given at the same time that the rest of the Law was given, in the desert of Sinai, right after Israel left Egypt. They were never said to be distinct from the Law.

After all, the 10 Commandments were even placed within the ark of the covenant, and were referred to as part of the same covenant. How on earth can they *not* be a subset of the Covenant of the Law of Moses?
