The church today says that the Sabbath was cancelled. As proof they tell of Mary’s discovery of the risen Christ on Sunday. It doesn’t make sense that the time of a discovery should change what God tells us He created on the seventh day, or that a time of discovering something establishes when it happened, but that is the way they think.
The Lord gave us a new covenant, one we are told makes the old covenant obsolete. The church tells us that God knew he make a mistake so he cancelled the old covenant. I guess they think that God is like them and they know they make mistakes so they say so does the Lord. As if the Lord was just another human.
The church goes on and on about the mistakes the Lord has made. They say the sacrificial system didn’t work at all for atonement of sin even though scripture tells us it did. When the blood of cattle was used to feed the Lord, like pagans fed idols and not as a symbol of Christ, God hated it so the church tells us it was a mistake of the Lord to establish it.
The church tells us OT scripture can be in error. OT scripture tells us that God guides us to praise and celebrate His plan of salvation for us with feasts for all generations. The church tells us that is an error, that the feasts are to be treated the same way cutting the foreskin is treated.
Scripture tells us to celebrate Christ with Passover, the church says God cancelled that. They made up a new way to do it and named it using pagan gods to inspire them to make up a name for this replacement.
Demons are attracted to the church, undermining it is undermining the Lord. They have done a mighty work, they will still fail in the end.
DISCLAIMER: I have respect for every single person here. I hope that we can agree, or at least agree to disagree. Never take anything I say as angry, because I am here to love and share biblical truth as I see it. I respect everyone’s God-given right to freewill thought and decision. I will open-mindedly consider what you have to say, and hope that you will do the same for me…
God did not make a mistake. He prophesied many times in the old testament that the Christ would come. And when He came He had us do the same things as in the old testament, but spiritually instead of physically. Instead of a physical rest on a physical day, our Sabbath is now spiritual, and is called “The peace that surpasses understanding.”
Instead of physically taking extreme sinners out of the city and stoning them to death, we are now ordered to disfellowship that person until they come to repentance. Instead of prophets giving us God’s Word, the Bible gives us God’s Word. Instead of a physical high priest we now have a spiritual High Priest- Christ. So we still obey the same laws, but we do so spiritually instead of physically. That is not a mistake, but preplanned.
To us the physical seems more real than the spiritual. But to God the spiritual is more real. Which makes sense since the physical is only temporary. Before God created physical things He was only spiritual, and after He destroys all physicality we will all only be spiritual. So the physical ways of the old testament were not the reality, they were only a shadow of the coming reality- the spiritual way found in Christ (Colossians 2:17).
Here is God’s pattern...
old testament= physical bodies, physical worship
new testament= physical bodies, spiritual worship
the afterlife= spiritual bodies, spiritual worship
