By the way, I agree with the Scripture you have quoted. I also agree with this one: 1 Corinthians 7:19 NKJV — Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters. .

Scripture twisting and moral equivocation notwithstanding, the sticking point for me is that even as a youth in the Southern Baptist faith where the Sabbath was believed by lay people to be Sunday, there were plenty of folks who declined to keep it holy, but I never once encountered a person so...

Well, if we're speaking in simple terms, then, you shouldn't mind simply answering a direct question: Do you believe Christians are obligated to God to keep the seventh day of the week—which is called "the Sabbath of the LORD thy God" in the text of the 4th commandment—holy or not? .

Good to know .

Thank you, no, but I'm very familiar with the story, and I can't see what good a Hollywood movie about spiritualistic devotion could possibly do. I believe in Jesus and His Word—not apparitions and sentimentalism. .

:watching and waiting: .

Fair enough, I guess, but my original comment was in response to: ...when you were, in fact, referring to self-righteousness. I don't think we can just write folks off who aren't able or even willing to see their danger. Christ didn't do that to me, and I'm still a work in progress, so... .

Keeping the Sabbath won't get anyone into the Kingdom—only the Saviour can save. But, then, neither will insisting that the Sabbath is anything and everything except what the Bible actually says it is—no matter how many lines and paragraphs of equivocation are used to attempt such a thing. I...

He also calls us to rightly divide it. That's no lie. .

Dead as a hammer

What I know is that no one wins this "game." I've said that there is no such thing as idolizing the Bible—only one's own opinions of what it says. And yet I'm being lumped in with a group of folks who are characterized as liberal commie whatchamacallits. Communication has broken down completely...

I forgot to mention that I also don't have the ability to log off the forum, close a browser tab, or power down my device. In short, I'm powerless to stop the flow of stuff that offends me—it's completely vulnerable, I am. :confused: .

Yeah, I really think your free/hate speech should be censored. Even though you don't know my real name or address and it appears you live roughly 2000+ miles away (oops—wrong coast; now I AM worried), I feel unsafe. :p (Sarcasm isn't against forum rules, I'm told.) .

"Smarty pants?" How will I recover from this devastating blow to my ego? God's Seven Thousand all wrapped up into one prophet. "I, alone... And they seek my life." Well, you've eluded them for nearly 4 years. Maybe you'll make it another day or two. .

Ah, the martyr complex... .

Come on, Carl, i know this is rhetorical, but... :) .

What kind of person is that? .

Only believe, GS, and you can live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Everything God has said, He will bring to pass, in His appointed time. The working out of the will of God in our lives is directly commensurate with the enthusiasm with which we believe. The story is told...

Which way did the goal posts go? .

Yeah, textual issues are keeping the Gospel from reaching millions. .
