All our righteousness—even that which we have allowed Christ to impute/impart to us: All of Paul's righteousness in Christ: The righteousness of Christ: Any questions? .

An honest or dishonest one? Makes a difference. lol .

Yeah, I get it now. Sorry. It's just that al of this came on the heels of the flirtation with Gnosticism in the other thread and I overreacted. Again, sorry. I think I made too much of the present tense you were using. :)

Where is this in the scriptures? Certainly not here: And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth." (Matthew 28:18) And what purpose does this odd theory serve? .

It would seem it has been concluded by more than a few persons that to be an honest Christian thinker one has to be prepared to move beyond the Bible. And, with this, I would have to wholeheartedly disagree, and also mention that it is precisely this kind of "honest" thinking that has ushered...

I wish someone had told me this 50 years ago when I first became a Christian. Thanks. .

Your manner of "turning away from" is puzzling. ,

Thanks, QT. I actually did check them out before from a specific episode you posted, I think. Pretty good stuff. It's nice to find good, new perspectives on the Gospel. Here's one I found recently: (They're actually having some kind of Gospel conference right now.) Youtube - Everlasting Gospel...

To the best of my knowledge, there aren't even a dozen Sabbath-keepers on this forum. Other ones I've participated in aren't much different. Christian forums are rough places for Sabbatarians. I can't help but wonder why hypocrisy regarding the 4th commandment is so much more offensive to...

How to understand the Bible: Look for Jesus in It. .

If you mean Hebrews 4:1-10, it's about entering into the rest from works as a means of salvation, and the peace that it brings—not canceling the Law of God. :) .

Oh, the Genesis 1-2 hermeneutic, I got it. Good to see ya, anyway. :) .

It certainly is. Good thing the Sabbath is a memorial of something in the past, and not merely a shadow of good things to come. The Liturgical law was changed from the Order of Levites to the Order of Melchizadek. The Law of God remains unchanged. The "better promises" have always been...

There is no hint of any instruction anywhere in the Bible that the solemnity of the 4th commandment, Seventh-day Sabbath has been transferred to the day of the resurrection of Christ occurring on the First day of the week. Bible scholars and apologists don't even bother advancing this argument...

Leviticus 23:32 NKJV: It shall be to you a sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict your souls; on the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your sabbath.” Mark 1:21 NKJV: Then they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered...

Folks generally often perceive the worst of themselves in others. . .

Which translation is that? From מִֽדֵּי־ (mid·dê-) Preposition-m | Noun - masculine singular construct Strong's 1767: Sufficiency, enough one New Moon חֹ֙דֶשׁ֙ (ḥō·ḏeš) Noun - masculine singular Strong's 2320: The new moon, a month to another בְּחָדְשׁ֔וֹ (bə·ḥā·ḏə·šōw) Preposition-b | Noun...

...unless the Bible says not to mark your body, which is the Temple of the Holy Spirit. Just sayin'. I did it. I was wrong. I'm glad Jesus forgives. Isn't this fun? o_O .

It's here. Robert G just started up another 'Sabbath sandbox.' I made one comment in response to his OP. I'm thinking of boycotting it. That might be against the rules. I just don't know if I have the heart to engage with the relentless (of late) antagonism toward the 4th commandment. I know...

Hi, Farouk, you crazy, tattoo-obsessed rascal! My tattoo has matured, all right. The human epidermis makes a lousy canvas. And I had an award-winning artist, so don't even bother calling the quality into question. :) .
