It's a pity that so few are actually preaching it.

I guess God didn't get the memo. “16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old...

In common... Both written in stone. Both a part of ten. Both righteousness. Both integral to a right relationship. Both (marriage and Sabbath) established before sin. Neither were therefore established as a remedy to the sin problem. Those remedial commandments came later. Neither pointed...

I have heard and read statements similar to that many many times. But like you, no-one has at any time actually explained what that means. What does fulfil actually mean? Really? It's a choice between one or the other? How about exercising some real faith and choosing both? So. No explanation...

Christ also fulfilled the 7th commandment right? I'm sure you're wife would be very interested if you apply your conclusions to that Commandment as you have the 4th.

Then it should be really easy for you to find an example in this thread right?

Yes, the gospel is so wonderful that through the grace of God we may have an audience with the Monarch of the universe. People pay for an audience with presidents, with kings and queens of this world, and they fawn and bow before popes who are but mortal sinners, yet are reluctant to approach...

No amount of theology can create a pretense of salvation in a state of disobedience. We lost the kingdom through disobedience to an explicit command of the Most High. And we presume to regain the kingdom without any change to our hearts and manner of living?

Far be it for me to dispute scripture. However, I believe I differ from what you think it is saying. Nowhere does that passage state the 4th commandment is cancelled... Or changed. Paul is talking about Israel. Their rest was contingent on obedience. It was disobedience that kept them from...

The more important question which you will not have an honest answer to, is where did Jesus or the apostles cancel the commandment in order that it need be reinstated?

Mmm, that's a good question, and I would say, everything. And nothing. The entering into the body is actuated by faith. As many have mentioned, we are baptized into Christ. So that would be the formal public expression of our decision to join Christ's church. But baptism is effectually...

Many ask, what does the church need to grow and flourish in these last days? Why are so many languishing and falling away from truth? Why does the gospel no longer have the power of once did? Ellen White answers... There is need of prayer, earnest, fervent, agonizing prayer, such prayer as...

I think the answer to your original question is at Calvary. It was then that our sins were forgiven, paid for, and our sorry miserable lives redeemed. Everyone's. However, God decides in the end who is saved and who is lost. Whose names are not blotted out of the Book of Life.

I think that was a wise choice. Later creeds attempted to be too specific, going beyond what scripture actually revealed, albeit I do have one issue with the Nicene, because to me it appears to contradict itself. But I'm willing to live with it....

A painting of porcelain ruddy cheeked dolls. European dolls.. Not middle eastern. Forgive my lack of enthusiasm.

I do find in that period of expression, the extravagant clothing so obviously uncharacteristic of both the times of Jesus and the financial position held by those in the picture. Excerpt perhaps for the angel sitting at the door.

“Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. ” Luke 7:47 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Luke.7.47

YES, but conditionally.

And bro @The Learner . Good to see you contributing so exuberantly once again. You must be feeling a lot better. Good to see.

This 'indivisibility' aspect of the Godhead is one which manifested in later centuries and today is the principle component of modern Trinitarianism. If it were true, that the members of the Godhead were inseparable and indivisible, how then could the Son die? The answer proffered by most, is...
