Yeshua never came against the Sabbath in the NT. He came against the man-made prohibitions the Jews put upon the Sabbath. Yeshua did not need to correct the Jews on not working on Sabbath. They all knew that. What they didn't know was how they were placing needless burdens upon the people by...

The Greek word for "law" (nomos) is not found in Colossians 2:14. The word "dogma" refers to the decrees of men. YHWH's ordinances are called "dikaioma", not "dogma". Paul is not talking about YHWH's ordinances in this verse. He is talking about man's ordinances or traditions. This same word is...

I did not get "certificate of debt" from Bacchiocchi, who is obviously correct if that is what he teaches. The NASB translates "cheirographon" as "certificate of debt". Col 2:14 having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has...

You know what I meant. Direct me to a source, besides your own, that translates Colossians 2:12-19 as you do. I doubt one exists because no translator would ever translate the same Greek word two different ways in the same sentence.

In that case, you will need to keep every day holy in the same way that your Creator commanded the Sabbath to be kept holy; by not working. The fact is, you can choose to esteem every day holy, but our Creator only made one day holy; the 7th day Sabbath. Try telling that to the man who was...

I’m talking about YHWH’s calendar that is based on the sun and moon with each month beginning with the crescent moon. Our Gregorian calendar with its days beginning at midnight and its first month beginning in the dead of winter is not YHWH’s calendar. So what??? The Almighty had a very...

The Sabbath being made for man does not mean man can choose to keep it holy or not. It means the man is not to be ruled over by the Sabbath. If it must be broken for a valid reason such as the preservation of life or health, it can be. It is one of the Ten Commandments. Therefore, it is indeed a...

Yom Teruah is also known as "the Day of Trumpets" or "the Day of Shouting" and is the first day of the 7th month of YHWH's calendar in the heavens. It amazes me that you don't know what it is, yet you can assure me that Yeshua fulfilled it. That is the epitome of wishful thinking. So, now that...

The Greek word "heorte" means "a feast day, festival". Paul is listing the three main times when believers gather to worship YHWH; feast days, new moons and Sabbaths.

Please show me a lexicon that gives "cheirographon" that meaning.

Again I ask you, where do you get these strange translations from? That is NOT what the Greek says. Not only can you not translate the Greek "krino" as "judge" and "condemn" in the same sentence since it only appears once in that verse, but the Greek "soma" cannot be translated "body" and...

Just look at a Greek text to know what should be there.

The Feast days are not cancelled or abolished, neither did Messiah fulfill them all yet. Paul knew this full well which is why he wrote Colossians 2:16-17 many years after Yeshua ascended to heaven and referred to the fulfillment as being in his future. Col 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you...

You took that verse out of the context of my post. I quoted Acts 13:46 along with it. Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we...

The "weak and beggarly elements" are pagan days that the Gentile converts wanted to return to AGAIN. They certainly could not be "desiring again" to return to Feast keeping since they never were Feast keepers in the first place.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Yeshua Messiah our Lord. Acts 13:46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge...

I know it is. It comes down to Greek grammar. Here is a link to an article that clearly explains the issue.

How can you deny what the Word says in Psalm 19? If you will notice, these verses do not abolish the letter of the law. They simply extend the boundaries of it. If you lust after a woman in your heart, you commit adultery, but if you continue on and act on your lust by physically committing...

I don't see it as a test, but as the rejection of a gift. If you can't even understand who Christ is or isn't, you will certainly have trouble understanding the Sabbath. Yeshua is NOT YHWH Elohim, nor is salvation dependent upon such idolatry. Perhaps that will be the subject of the next thread...
