Standing by and not standing up against the secularisation of our churches. Adopting worldly methods and programmes to accomplish spiritual goals. Not calling sin by its right name. Not realising that if we desire healing for our families, our cities, and our nations, God first desires...

Are you suggesting that the fault with the old Covenant was with the giver of the law, and that He changed because His laws were insufficient for their purpose? God's remedy for the sin problem remained the same throughout all time. Sacrifice. And He was the sacrifice. The animals in the OT...

That about sums it all up. Sunday, a man made institution to replace what God enjoined.

What Paul was referring to here, while you and Jane both are reinterpreting it in a manner to suit your preconceived ideas, is the Jewish festivals that pointed to messiah. He is referring to that law which was for the Jews, the remedy for sin... the gospel. The annual festival sabbaths that...

Which God is the angel recommending here, the OT God or the NT God... “6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, 7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God...

Yet it seems that those gnats are inspiring you to greater and greater heights of criticism.

Those protestant churches who are joining with the state even as we speak, mean well. However, I think that if their relationship with Jesus were on a more sure footing, then they would be attempting to establish an earthly dominion or Thor's worldly version of God's kingdom on earth. An...

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...

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.

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?

More a commentary methinks.

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...

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...
