    Must a Christian Work to Keep Themself Sinless in Order to Keep Their Salvation?

    One would more believe your posts about Calvinist lack of sympathy for the lost if you had some. Your accusations against other posters that they need Jesus and your complete disdain for their assumed parlous need of redemption reveals your own shortcomings reflective of the state of those you...

    Why I believe in the rapture.

    And I would suggest that this grafting back is on an individual basis, not a national basis.

    Sola Scriptura

    There was no discussion. In response to my quote of scripture you copied Mungo's source which is merely a denial of the truth of the scripture I quoted, rendering it holistically irrelevant by limiting it's relevance to one event in history. Your church did the same with the 4th Commandment...

    Sola Scriptura

    The Catholic encyclopedia isn't official source material for Catholic faith and practise? Even with the imprimatur of the Vatican? And a "Converts Catechism to the Catholic Doctrine" by a Redemptorist Father is unreliable and not a source to be trusted? And then you quote so called church...

    Sola Scriptura

    Because the traditions that resulted in a pretended sacredness of Sunday is unsafe seeing it has no foundation in scripture.

    Sola Scriptura

    What discussion? I'm not entering into a discussion with Catholic apologists seeking to destroy Protestant faith in God's word. Cleave to your false traditions if you must... Leave us alone to follow our own path. I trust the scriptures. You would do better to do the same, but it's your choice.

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    When was the last time you read the commandment itself? You are correct, the Sabbath was a gift for the benefit of mankind. That gift is opened when we obey the Commandment. It isn't up to us to change the day according to our convenience. It's up to us to keep a specific day, the seventh, holy...

    Sola Scriptura

    No. Your church used politics, threats, and force of arms to coerce the world to submit to a counterfeit authority that usurped the word of God and replaced it with a magisterium that "interprets" the scriptures to blend with your pagan roots. I say pagan roots, because the Catholic Church as an...

    Sola Scriptura

    To the law and to the testimony. If they speak not according to this word, there is no light in them. Isaiah 8:20. KJV Psalms 119:97, 104 97 O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. 104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

    Sola Scriptura

    Thank you for all of the above. If I were to take this case to court, your posts would be all the evidence I need to prove why scripture is the only safe foundation for truth.

    Sola Scriptura

    Yep, you've quoted the same Catholic source Mungo quoted. Isaiah 8:20 supports Sola scriptura because it claims to be the final arbiter in doctrine, faith, and practice. In other words, don't go to the wizards, the ecclesiastical councils, or the theologians, because unless they speak according...

    Sola Scriptura

    The Church, on the other hand, after changing the day of rest from the Jewish Sabbath, or Seventh day of the week, to the first, made the Third Commandment refer to Sunday as the day to be kept holy as the Lord's Day. The Council of Trent (Sess. VI, can. xix) condemns those who deny that the Ten...

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    Nice try. I stand by what I said. You denigrate yourself when you deliberately misapply scripture... As many do when using Colossians 2 as an excuse for ignoring the 4th Commandment. No-one is belittling you. You do it to yourself. You are the only who suffers as a result of your own...

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    Ummm. The Sabbath is the seventh day. Now unless you know something the rest of us missed, God established the week by creating everything in 6 days and resting the seventh. When I was at school I learned that the week has seven days. If the Sabbath is the seventh day, it's the last day of the...

    Sola Scriptura

    Question: Which is the Sabbath day? Answer: Saturday is the Sabbath day. Question: Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday? Answer: We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday. —Rev. Peter Geiermann C.SS.R., The...

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    He's not telling you to go to church. He's asking you to rest. To remember to keep His day holy. If you think going to church is a part of keeping the day holy, then great. But church isn't the focus of the commandment, God is. As for demanding that He tell you which day is the last day of the...

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    One of the Kings of Israel said something similar. It didn't turn out well for him. "Are you he that troubleth Israel?"

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    The problem does not lie with those encouraging obedience. The problem lies with those who make excuses and imagine reasons for not doing so. Made worse b acclamations of "we are free" to do so.

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    KJV Genesis 2:2-3 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. KJV Exodus...
