LOL Jesus would have liked for us to be one, as in that we should all agree on Christian beliefs that He left us with. But we'd rather each have our own denomination with its very own beliefs. Too bad. He didn't mean be of one spirit with the Trinity, like Jesus and God are of one spirit.

We might pull up the wheat. Functionally even, we can't have the nature or the spirit of God. We could only partake of it. We can't be the whole cake. But yeah, I guess tares serve God too.

Removing entire commandments. This is the problem I have with this.

Be loving as your father in heaven is loving?

I could partake of a cake, but I'm not the cake.

No one is responding as to what spirit we use.The same one as Jesus? There's only one spirit,,,the Holy Spirit. This brings up an interesting question. Did Jesus use the Holy Spirit? First we need to consider the Holy Trinity. Jesus is the spirit, and the spirit is Jesus. Second, Jesus was...

Yes. Of course God blessed the 7th day. Right now it seems to me that man changed it to Sunday. SDAs believe that those who treat Saturday as a normal day are lost. I can't go this far.

There were 3 types of law in the OT, moral, ceremonial, civil. Moral would be the commandments. Civil would be weddings or divorce. Ceremonial would be the sacrifices. This is common knowledge, but if necessary I'll look for something when I'm not on this tablet. As I said, I never considered...

Great point. We're made in the image of God in the sense that we have some of his attributes. For instance, we are moral, we're social beings, we can "create"...music, art, etc. Adam and Eve had preternatural gifts, like immortality, but even they weren't like God. As proven by the fall. If I...

Amen to that! Many times I use the explanation of the present tense, but many do not accept it. It gets tiring to tell you the truth.

I agree. I meant fear of worldly things.

Jesus did abolish the ceremonial law. Do you consider Saturday worship to have been under ceremonial law or not? It seems like it would be. You've given me some good scripture to study.

I never considered the Sabbath as being ceremonial, just one of the commandments. I know that with Jesus' coming, the ceremonial and the civil laws have been abolished, but not the moral law. That's still to be followed. @gadar perets has good points too. I'll have to work this out on my...

Oh boy. Here we go.

There are a few Popes that were not acceptable to the CC and may not even be listed. This could be found in wikipedia under, for example, list of popes. List of popes - Wikipedia

I also say that every day is the Sabbath. But we do have to put aside one day a week for service.

Funny!

This sounds so good. My main concern is still just the fact that a commandment has been changed.

Yes. But let's not lead Protestants to believe that Jesus is crucified at every mass. This is not true.

Love casts out all fear.
