You say only CC churches are around you. Do you still attend, or what do you do?

What does Colossians 2:16 mean to you? To a Seventh-day Adventist it means don't let anyone stop you from keeping the Sabbath or the food laws. But Paul meant, don't let Judaizers try to put you back under the old covenant laws. (Same as his message to the Galatians.)

Sinning unto death is deliberate sin. Willful sin. A Christian who has been baptized in the Spirit doesn't willfully sin. 1 John 3:9. I doubt you've killed anyone lately, or stolen anything from someone, or lied, or committed adultery with anyone. Those are sins of lawlessness. A Christian...

Read what I wrote in #335 when Bob Ryan asked which commandments of the ten do I edit out. No, you need to study John more carefully. Also Paul. 1 John 3:23 are the commandments John is referring to, not the old covenant, but the NEW. Paul also showed the contrast between the Ten Commandments...

We agree on something - I have a big problem with Calvinists too. They wink at sin and turn the grace of God into licentiousness, Jude 1:4. Calvinism came out of Gnosticism.

Yes, "remember." The Sabbath was made even before man sinned, but God had foreknowledge that he would, thus Jesus was foreordained to be the Redeemer before the foundation of the world, 1 Peter 1:13-21. God didn't rest because He was tired. The Sabbath had a higher meaning. The Sabbath is a...

2 Corinthians 3:7 "But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones 2 Corinthians 3: how will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious? 9 For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, the ministry of righteousness exceeds much more in glory. Those who believe in Christ and...

I have thought about that a lot, and am still perplexed. You see, I was raised Seventh-day Adventist. Then I met a man who asked me to marry him and I said, we had to be the same denomination. He was Church of Christ. He couldn't debate. In fact, over the 5 years we were married, I found he...

So tell us?

He knew it. It comes from the Pentateuch. Love God with all your heart, mind and strength. Familiar?

Only if you have been baptized in the Holy Spirit. What do you think being born again is all about? We have been given new natures so that we can walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh. By your question, I see you don't understand this. How are we dead to sin if we still retain the sin nature?

yes, you agree with phoneman777 also. Both he and Bob Ryan are Seventh-day Adventists.

When he referred to '"establish" Sunday sacredness' I see that as making it a LAW OF GOD. That never happened, and he is right about that. But we are not under the law; we worship in Spirit and in truth. Sunday is a tradition - and a good one, not a replacement for the Sabbath, originally a day...

When Paul speaks of flesh, he is referring to one of two things that are called "flesh." 1. The body which will be changed in an instant and put on immortality. Romans 8:10 2. The other is "carnal sin nature." Romans 8:9 is referring to this flesh, not the body. Why people can't see the...

I DO what I believe. I'm not a hypocrite.

Scripture verifies scripture, and this is the one and only time "the Lord's Day" is referred to, but not to what day of the week it is referring to. Tradition has it that it is Sunday. But that verse could just as easily been referring to John being in the Spirit ABOUT the "day of the Lord" -...

Just the Sabbath. It was the sign of the old covenant, and once a new covenant replaces the old, the sign is also replaced by the new sign. In our case, the sign of the new covenant is the CUP of the New Testament, which represents Christ's blood. All the Sabbaths, including the weekly Sabbath...

I have texts. I was expounding on her impertinence.

Actually, we are not to keep Sunday as LAW. It is a tradition. But, I agree with everything else in your post. Those who say Sunday is the Sabbath, did not get that from God's word. Our "Sabbath" is the throne of Grace, which we can come to daily, not just once a week, Hebrews 4.
