I guess I'm too dense to understand exactly what's being advanced as literal or as figurative. Man's words and God's words are all mixed together in this discussion. So, exactly what does "Figuratively speaking, we will be at rest" mean? Because it sounds an awful lot like we won't be at rest...

Amigo, it is a profound mistake to assume that because Calvin held errors (as humans seem to do, regardless of their education level) that he was anything less than obsessed with the scriptures. Objective historical documentation will bear this out. I know this probably has little, if any...

That must really be something to see!

Forgive me, but which kind of rest are we going to be having in the day that is not a day at all—actual or figurative? Of course, it could be argued that the term "Sabbath Day" affords some kind of escape from this dilemma but, really, how far down this cognitive dissonance hatch do we want to...

Do you have access to moist heat and cold compress or fomentation? If someone can apply heat and cold alternating you may be surprised at the relief that can often be found. Heat for 90 seconds, cold for 30, then twice more. This can be done every hour or so. There are other home remedies for...

Sleep study, yes. I don't need my C-PAP anymore but my wife wants to make sure before she retires and we have to switch to my health ins which is not quite as good as hers. Anyhow, thing is, Sis, I've been holding out on you for a couple of years because of my warm regard for our friendship. By...

I've seen these Mitzvot lists. They are nothing like the magical "# 613" that folks get from Google. No form of Rabbinical authority would validate the claim you make here, and no consensus has been reached regarding these explicit and implicit commands, of which almost none were given at...

No, it's really not. There are millions and millions of Christians all over the world who keep the 7th day Sabbath. There are even animals who keep it. Actually, human bodies try to keep it but people won't let them. :)

Oh, you mean like the way folks allegorize Scripture making Jesus the "new Sabbath" which He is not?! You're more fun than a barrel full of monkeys, Brother Ron! There's no need to allegorize any basic doctrine. That's for spiritual growth instruction and prophecy. All that needs to be done...

You know, it's funny(peculiar)... Colossians 2 is held up to extract the Sabbath from the Christian's responsibility, but it comes back in Hebrews 4. Of course, you could say that the day is specified in Colossians 2 but, then, it also is in Hebrews 4, isn't it? And if it meant that the day was...

Exodus 31 16 Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual covenant. 17 It is a sign between Me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He...

It's 8:47AM on Monday the 10th of July, 2023. I just got done with my rebounder workout. 864 reps HIIT in 30 minutes while listening to the upbeat movements of Bach's Brandenburg Concertos and glancing occasionally at a beautiful sunny morning mountain scene wallpaper on my TV (hey, it's ugly...

Linda, what makes you think I'd be interested in brownie points? That's really puzzling to me.

Absolutely not, Sis. I'm just a bit swamped at the moment, and your comments are deeply appreciated and will get a thorough, private reply just as quick as I can. I have a couple of appointments today and an overnight hospital stay tonight. Nothing serious, though, really. Love you, Sis. ;)

Swap out the deep-fried ramen with zoodles and you'd be closer to healthy than you might think! :Happy:

Perhaps it wouldn't frustrate you so much if you tried to shift your focus to God's recognition of how your problem affects you. You might have to set some reminders to bring your focus back when it strays. I've had to deal with this kind of thing. No one's problems are just like another's...

What makes you think you know why you have an M-problem? :)

My position is explained at length in the post you quoted but, since you evidently, grossly misinterpreted it, did not read carefully enough, GE.

The really great thing about this is that I could not tolerate raw onions in the slightest for many, many years. But after taking the mildest of natural remedies, Slippery Elm Bark, my adult lifelong IBS was completely reversed and I can eat freely of any good thing that previously would have...

GE, if you want to throw your boundless, Adventist-loathing weight on the side of the Sabbath question that reduces it to a cruel joke instead of a divine precept and erroneously urges that Jesus was our Sabbath all along (since He changes not and therefore can't be something today that He...
