    Catholic tradition, not the Bible, teaches a change to Sundaykeeping.

    Further to the above discussion, Moses wrote all the history of the patriarchs. Nothing was written by Abraham, Isaac, or anyone before them, until Moses. So no-one mentioned in genesis recorded any of the history up till the time of the exodus. Also, I think it reasonable to assume that...

    What are the two witnesses doing with the prostitute?

    In the last days Revelation reveals a situation of a three fold union between the dragon, beast, and false prophet. The dragon being Satan, we can really believe he represents that new age spiritualism you speak of, while the beast and the false prophet that union of Babylon (fallen church)...

    I would suggest somewhat more than different. How about original?

    The Babylonians were the first to divide the year into 7 day weeks? Interesting. I suppose then that makes the sabbath a Babylonian celebration?

    When one deliberately alters the word of God, even a commandment, and replaces it with something of their own devising, they are placing their own authority above God's authority. How is that not a transgression against the 1st and 2nd commandment?

    Calling it sacred, and declaring it a replacement for the sabbath is.

    What are the two witnesses doing with the prostitute?

    I see all prophetic women as the church, faithful as in Revelation 12, unfaithful as in Revelation 17,18. That word fallen literally means divorced. A previous relationship broken through spiritual adultery... cleaving to the kings and queens and rulers of this world instead of Christ, her...

    Except when Jesus said not to. You know the one about vain worship right?

    What are the two witnesses doing with the prostitute?

    I would give a slightly different nuance to this, that the woman, as does a woman throughout prophetic scripture, represents the church. The harlot Babylon the fallen church, the pure woman God's people in both old and new testaments. When the woman was pregnant and waiting the birth of...

    “If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: ” Isaiah 58:13 KJV And NT...

    It was at first honoured out of fear. In those early centuries the Romans grew to despise the Jews because of their continuing uprisings and revolts. The Christians had been meeting with Jews in the synagogue every Sabbath. However, they started to compromise the Sabbath so as to be not seen...

    Catholic tradition, not the Bible, teaches a change to Sundaykeeping.

    While I agree with you that history records a very early tradition of Sunday observance in the Christian Church, such does not mean it was based on apostolic teaching. I disagree with Jane who said the early church did not keep the Sabbath. I think we would have heard about that in the...

    What are the two witnesses doing with the prostitute?

    I would suggest a simple alternative, that would fit neatly into both scenarios, coming and going. Clouds in both instances I believe refer to angels... millions of them which at a distance would look like a cloud. Hidden from view as they received Him back into their company, and returning...

    What are the two witnesses doing with the prostitute?

    Papal Rome. I have given numerous evidences from scripture as to why, from prophecy, and also from history, and her own teachings and the philosophy behind them. There are threads and posts throughout this site with my name attached... search brakelite and Antichrist.

    Who's claiming otherwise? Regardless, the law is a vital component of the gospel. Grace and law cannot be separated. Once we are saved, it is essential we walk in obedience. This is a sign of our love for our Saviour. And even though we may be justified through the blood of the Cross, it is...

    No. Of course not. No-one has. Does God give His children power and strength to obey His commandments? Yes or no?

    More unbiblical assumptions. Sounds great, but no substance.

    What are the two witnesses doing with the prostitute?

    Protestant seminaries for decades now have been lying to their students, and we now have seasoned pastors teaching their congregations the same lies, and those pew sitters now repeating those same falsehoods on Christian forums and refusing to hear any other voices on the subject of the...
