Actually, he said unworthily, and it wasn't about doing so under false pretenses. Paul did say in 1 Cor 11 that when you come together (have Church) is isn't to have the Lord's supper. You are supposed to do that at home; not in Church. The problem was some folks in the Church at Corinth were...

Haven't really been following that aspect of this thread, so I don't know what examples you are looking for.

Its tough to buck tradition. And the Easter trdition is held by Catholics and Protestants alike. That makes it hard. But the Bible aays it ain't so. The Bible says Jesus died Wednesday and rose Saturday. Tou have to compromise the words of the Bible to say otherwise.

Yes, exactly! This is what I have been focusing on recently. They purchased the spices after the High Sabbath and prepared them before the weekly Sabbath.

Here is the text from Mark: Mark 16:1-2 KJV And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. [2] And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the...

But one verse says the spices were purchased after the sabbath (Mark 16:1) and the other says they were prepared before the sabbath (luke 23:56). Yes, both happened on a friday... But how can both be right?

Mark 16:1 KJV And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. I do believe it was on Friday though... Probably in the morning.

This has nothing to do with the TULIP, but more to do with John Calvin, the preacher. Calvin was not a Calvinist. He didn't preach TULIP. His flowers did after he died. Today, Calvinism is even far away from what his followers preached. I have not read all his works, but I have read the...

Its not about law... Its about truth. We aren't under the Law... But be are bound to believe the truth. A Wednesday crucifixion and saturday ressurection is the only way all the facts come together.

Its not so much that I am offended. Its that I don't understand your logic (actually, I do... Or so I believe I do). So your supporting text.. 1 tim 1:4... This isn't about geneology. But what about "fables"? We aren't to give heed to them. Now I don't believe anyone on either side is...

But it says 3 days and three nights. In Jewish days the night comes before the day. And according to my sources 3 days and 3 nights means 72 hours. It is not an idiom.

Yes, I can. I am the one that brought the verse up. Of course I understand that. My question is this: when did they buy the spices? Can you please answer that question?

Do you really believe God is all about the bottom line more than the journey to get there? The bottom line is that Jesus mafe the sacrifice. Yes... True. But what about the way it happened? There is truth and there is not the truth. If none of this is important, then why not believe and...

Already anawered that question. The Bible says they bought them. If they already had them... Why did they buy more? No. Mark 16:1 says they bought the spices after the Sabbath for the specific purpose of annointing Jesus. Whatever spices they bought after the Sabbath were meant to...

That's actually a wonderful question, but it is merely speculation. It won't ever answer a question but it will lead to other questions and deeper understanding. In fact, I like the question more for an entirely different aspect of the equation. I hope to get to it soon. Rstrats... Whose to...

Actually there is. I gave it a while back in my initial post. But I know you are busy. Perhaps you missed it. Mark 16:1 KJV And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, Mark 16:1 KJV And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the...

Ah! I was right! You didn't read the article I posted. You were talking about your own reference (which I did read and does not disagree with the one I posted). So, its a matter of not being on the same page. I do not disagree with the information given in your article. However, the one I...

You only partially quoted me. I was very clear when you read all my comment in context. Again, we are discussing Esther 4:16 - 5:1. In those verses Esther asks for a fast of three days, both night and day. That fast was set and according to Jewish custom it was 72 hours according to the...

It is a fact... You are not being honest. 3 days and 3 nights pertains to the fast, not when she went to say the king. There is not contradiction. None of that is my opinion. Exactly when she went to see the king on the third day (or after the 3rd day IF it is an idiom) is not know. I not...

You are the one who is trying to prove the point by xomparing it to fasting, not me. It isn't my problem, its yours. It doesn't matter. The 3 days: night and day oertain to the fast; not when she went. Second, in verse in Ester 5:1 says on the 3rd day she went... Ok. The reference I...
