Hi bro,In Matthew chapter 5, read further……in verse 21 Jesus begins to talk about murder and he says that anyone who murders will be subject to judgement (the law) – but then he goes on to *add* to the law by including the following:  Matt 5: 22, 27, 31But I tell you anyone who is angry with his brother will be jubject to judgment…..You…[Read more]

Hebrews 8:13By calling this covenant “new,” he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear.The children of Israel did not remain faithful to the first covenant God made with them , so God made a new covenant with them and with us.In Matthew, Jesus tells us that the rules for the Sabbath were changing; now…[Read more]

Ken,You didn't read Colossians 2:16-23, did you?If you'd like to keep the Sabbath your way, please do. I'm sure you are honoring your Father and he is pleased with you. Just as I keep a Sabbath unto my Father and he is pleased with me.Paul says we are not to judge anyone regarding a “Sabbath day” – this is what you are doing to your brothers and…[Read more]

There was something wrong with the first convenant, Paul tells us. That is why we have a new covenant!! I think God knows that even keeping one day set-apart would be too hard to keep as a LAW. That is why Jesus died for us. To set us free from those laws.Did Paul keep the Sabbath? Do we have any examples of Paul doing this?

Certain days are more special to one than the other. Paul doesn't use this time to set apart Friday night till Saturday night, does he?

I don't know if I fully agree?Over and over again I read about the blood of Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and the reconciliation of my soul to God. I read that the law was useless to perform these tasks.The Law was put into place so that we would realize we needed a Saviour. The Law was put into place because God knew we would break the…[Read more]

Ken,Sometimes I think Peter and the boys felt that Paul's writings were hard to understand simply because Paul ministered to the Gentiles and they were Jews! As far as the Law goes, I confess that I haven't done much study there, so I don't feel qualified to give an answer. But I do believe that the Father gave Paul a ministry that encompassed a…[Read more]

Kejonn,Jesus was CONCEIVED in Mary by God's holy spirit —– does that qualify as a moment in time when God became the Father of the baby growing inside of Mary? If not, what would you call the conception/virgin birth. Who's son was Jesus AT HIS BIRTH? Joseph's boy?

Ah….my mistake……Laurel, you mean it is Saturday. Gotcha. Thanks.

Boy, it's getting pretty bad when you ask a straight-forward question (when is the Sabbath) and you can't get a straight answer.Laurel, did I understand you correctly that the Sabbath is on Sunday – the first day of the week?
