    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    Terminology is important because darkness hides in obscurity and vagueness. Start focusing on the nits and you will expose and drive out the darkness

    Those were Judeans returned from the Babylonian captivity, not the tribes of Israel that were scattered throughout the nations a couple of centuries earlier when the kingdom of Israel was destroyed in 722BC

    It doesn't matter. Unbelieving Israel and Judah were broken off from the root and the only way back for them is to be grafted back in as any other person must be. There is no difference

    How was it Levitical Judaism? Judah had nothing to do with the priesthood until the order of Melchizedek. The children of Israel were not called Jews, ie Judeans, back then.

    the Sabbath

    The 4th commandment has become a stumbling block to carnally minded sabbatarians because they haven't learned to distinguish between the spirit of the law (righteous purpose or effect) and the letter of the law (carnal observance). Every other commandment they can fit into the two great...

    the Sabbath

    The purpose for the sabbath was to be a sign to Israel that they might know God was sanctifying them. Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them. Ezekiel 20:12 Sabbath observance was required by the...

    the Sabbath

    It's not a matter of whether the sabbath exists or not, or if we pay attention to it or not, or if the 4th commandment even still exists or not. It's matter of whether or not the 4th commandment exerts any authority over those who are baptized into Christ's death. Laws do not, cannot, exert...

    I think it was immensely logical. Abraham knew that Christ, God's son, would be sacrificed for sin. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. John 8:56 Abraham didn't have blind faith; he had faith in the gospel.

    Both Jews and gentiles are grafted into the vine of Israel; there is no difference. Gentiles have been blessed by Israel's/Judah's' preservation of OT scripture for thousands of years and Jews have been blessed by Christian preservation of NT scripture for thousands of years, Please learn this...

    Not true. The gospel's roots are in the bible. Judaism is a creation of the pharisees

    the Sabbath

    The 7 days of creation were not 24 hour days because the sun which determines day length wasn't created until the 4th day and Genesis 2:4 says the 6 days of creation were one day These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made...

    the Sabbath

    No it didn't. The 7 "days" of creation are figurative descriptions of creational epochs; they were not 24 hour days. The first six "days" reached completion, but the 7th "day" has never ended.

    Verses 22:10-21 in the KJV of Revelation were translated from the Textus Receptus (TR), which was produced by Erasmus who had only one Greek manuscript of Revelation to work from. Because it had some verses missing in Chapter 22 Erasmus worked from memory, the notes of Lorenzo Valla and a...

    That's true and not true. Sin isn't an issue if we walk in the light, which requires acknowledging both to him and to ourselves our unrighteous nature and deeds so that we can be cleansed and remain in the light. If we walk after darkness we will perish For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall...
