Quote (Kolumbo @ Sep. 19 2007,20:50)Peace and love to all my brothers in Christ.I was raised under trinity based religions and have only recently begun to question itsauthenticity, since I started reading these boards.This can be viewed in two different ways: (1) God led you here so you read more on the Trinity or (2) don't let the words of…[Read more]

Quote (Jodi @ Sep. 18 2007,23:52)Yes I did say awhile back that my parents helped set up the United Church of God in their area after the split from the WWC of God. The United Church of God then split a few years after that with my parents helping establish the split church that was simply called Church of God. The congregation was really small…[Read more]

Hi all, maybe this has been mentioned in this thread, but do we see anyone from Adam to pre-Moses observing any form of Sabbath? How about Abraham? The Gentiles are a promise to him, not Moses.The reason I ask is that if the Sabbath is truly spiritual, why does the OT not speak of anyone before the childen of Israel under Moses being told to…[Read more]

Mrs,Do you have a Bible in German? I used to have one somewhere — very, very old — but do not know where it is now. Not that I could read it but my heritage is German on my dad's side.The reason I ask is that I wonder how verses translated into German might affect their meaning…

Steve,I'm curious…do you know what the doctrine of the trinity is? No good trinitarian will believe that Yeshua is God the Father. They will say that he is God the Son, although that moniker never occurs in the Bible. Nor does God the Holy Spirit. But what you keep mentioning is more akin to sabellism or oneness, not the trinity. The only one on…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Sep. 16 2007,01:55)To all. The Trinitarian doctrine is found in the whole of all of the scriptures. It is the only way to reconcile all the scriptures without contradictions.Blessings Hey WJ,The trinity is not the only way to reconcile all the scriptures, but it is the most popular way amongst mainstream Christianity.…[Read more]

Wow, check out that Holy Bible. Full of examples of men and women who sinned. Why, sounds just like….us!

Quote (Cult Buster @ Sep. 09 2007,20:59)Kejonn. The struggle is yours. You are struggling to pervert the truth rather than accept the plain words of scripture.                                                                     Jesus is Jehovah. Joh 7:42  Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town…[Read more]

Mat 7:1 “Do not judge so that you will not be judged. Mat 7:2 “For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you. Luk 6:37 “Do not judge, and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you will not be condemned; pardon, and you will be pardoned. Rom 2:1 Therefore you have no excuse,…

Quote (IM4Truth @ Sep. 13 2007,08:52)Keyonn Why is it that nobody seems to understand the Covenant. We are not under the Covenant that God gave to Moses. And therefore we do not keep the Holidays anymore, they have been fulfilled in Christ.  My suggestion is to you to make a study on the covenant.Love you Brother that is what I believe.Peace and…[Read more]

Mrs,Actually, I was rude to Chosenone in some sense, and that person left during an exchange with me, not Ken. So don't lay that one at Ken's feet .

Hey Ken,This is not a loaded question, it is just seeking your advice. Is it OK to watch sports that are being played during the Sabbath? Would sports be considered work? After all, there are many college football games on Saturday and high school on Friday night. If we extend it on, there are definitely people working at the games: referees,…[Read more]

94,Thanks. A convocation is an assembly of some sort, so perhaps. Some commentaries say it is to be a family assembly, so this would lean towards having a time of family study and worship? But I'm considering corporate worship with other believer outside of blood family.

To any takers,Somewhere along the line I asked this, but is there anything wrong with observing the Sabbath during the traditional times (Friday sunset – Saturday sunset) but worshiping on Sunday? I cannot find any scripture that says that the Sabbath is to be set aside for worship, only as a day of rest. So I can theoretically go fishing and wash…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Sep. 10 2007,19:14)Hi all.Maybe someone could show us a New testament example where the Apostles taught the keeping of the Sabboth, or where Jesus commands it or where the “Ten Commandments” are mentioned.John said…1 Jn 3:23And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love…[Read more]

Quote (kenrch @ Sep. 10 2007,09:34)Kejonn you may have a point?  The Sabbath is not written on how heart because the gentiles did not come out of Egypt.But Jesus said the Sabbath is made for MAN not just Israel.If we are born again then we are grafted into Israel and are “spiritual” Israel.Forgive me Kejonn I “know” you know all this but don't…[Read more]

Quote (Not3in1 @ Sep. 09 2007,00:56)KJ,I've heard that the Sabbath still applies to us Gentiles because we have been grafted in to Israel?Rom 11:17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the rich root of the olive tree,Are we grafted into Israel?
