    Why Easter Is Important

    I'm not going to agree with observing Easter or Christmas they're not commanded by God. They're commandments of men.

    Why Easter Is Important

    No as long as anyone is equating Easter with Luke 22:17-19 they're wrong. Luke 22:17-19 has to do with the lord's death. Paul says at 1 Corinthians 11:26 that as long as we keep eating the bread and drinking from the cup we're remembering the lord's death. So no, they're not the same thing...

    Why Easter Is Important

    The true church follows what Jesus says at Luke 22:17-19. And Paul says at 1 Corinthians 11:26 that when we observe the last supper or lord's evening meal we remember the lord's death

    Why Easter Is Important

    Luke 22:17-19 don't teach us to observe the Passover they teach us to observe the memorial of Jesus death, you're not going to convince me otherwise. So you keep observing the Passover I'll continue to observe the memorial of Jesus death.

    The answer of hell and its origins

    The problem with this argument is they ignore so many scriptures that show that human beings are souls not that they have souls. When a human being dies and that breath of life leaves the flesh and blood human body the human being is no longer a living soul or living person. How can a person who...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    A ransom is a price paid to provide a release from captivity, punishment, suffering, sin, or even an obligation. The price is not always monetary. (Isaiah 43:3) For example, all firstborn boys or male animals in Israel belonged to Jehovah, and a ransom, or redemption price, needed to be paid to...

    Why Easter Is Important

    I understand how important the resurrection of Jesus Christ is. We preach about it everyday. We don't however observe commandments of men. People do the same thing with Christmas trying to push it in scripture that we are to observe the day Jesus was born, they're just commandments of men. I...

    Why Easter Is Important

    We were talking about Easter I thought. You're the one calling Easter the Sabbath not I. When I think of the Sabbath I think of the Sabbath the Jews observed when the angel of death killed the firstborn of Egypt. We don't observe that day. We observe the memorial of Jesus Christ. We observe it...

    Why Easter Is Important

    I know all these scriptures but none tell us to observe the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The scriptures tells you to observe his memorial which is about his death not his resurrection. We should be observing what scripture commands not the day imperfect men command us to observe. That's the...

    Why Easter Is Important

    The law covenant was done away with when Jesus died for mankind so that sabbath day law you're talking about isn't binding on Christians. You're trying to tell people they must live by the law covenant. Plus the Sabbath day law that was instituted on the Israelites only. It wasn't a law that the...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Those that truly believe are the ones who exercise faith in that ransom sacrifice. There will be many who will not exercise faith in that ransom sacrifice. Just because you say Jesus is the son of God and you say he sacrificed his life for mankind doesn't mean you're exercising faith in that...

    I believe that gay people have as much of a "choice" to be gay as you do to not sin

    While that's true some will be dead for a period of time then resurrected to live forever, there will also be those who died in the past and some who will die in the future, those who are destroyed at Armageddon for sure, that will be lost forever. They will be forever be dead.

    The answer of hell and its origins

    The scriptures contradict that belief. People both righteous and unrighteous sleep in death until the resurrection begins

    I believe that gay people have as much of a "choice" to be gay as you do to not sin

    Many will lose eternal life because they will reject God

    I believe that gay people have as much of a "choice" to be gay as you do to not sin

    I understand and I think many will agree that people have freedom of choice. People have the right to choose in the belief that there is no God. That doesn't mean I'm going to agree that there is no God just because a person has the right to believe and exercise the right to believe that there...

    Why Easter Is Important

    What I understand when it comes to the scriptures is that nowhere in scripture does it tell us to remember the day Jesus was resurrected. So I find nowhere in scripture that we are to observe the day known as Easter. Also bunny rabbits and eggs have always been used as symbols of fertility in...

    Abortion

    Well I believe Christians, true Christians anyway, should follow Jesus foot steps closely. Jesus, he didn't take part of the politics of human beings. He wouldn't even allow the Jews to make him king. This is because the kingdom that Jesus is king of is not of this world. So I honestly don't...

    Abortion

    I agree that badgering or attempting to force this or that on an other wasn't what Jesus taught. What I mean by these political organizations that are for abortion or against abortions, is that they are trying to have laws instituted that will support their view about abortions. When these...
