How else would you know what Phart sounded like??

All I expect from you is false accusations and straw man arguments.
Another straw man argument. I did not create my own Sabbath and I'm not a Jew who is under the law in the Old Covenant. I am a Christian in the body of Christ under the New Covenant.
*Sabbath keeping with all it's rules and regulations (Exodus 16:23; 31:12-18; 35:3; Leviticus 23:32; Jeremiah 17:21; 19:30; 23:2-3; Numbers 15:32-36; 28:1-10; 29:39-40; I Chronicles. 23:30-31; II Chronicles 31:2-4; Isaiah 1:13) was part of a covenant with Israel (under the old covenant) that is not binding on Christians under the New Covenant (Colossians 2:16,17).
The Gospel teaches us about believing in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ as the ALL-sufficient means of our salvation (1 Corinthians 15:1-4; Romans 1:16) and does not teach us about your perverted Sabbath gospel.
I'm not buying your false accusations and straw man arguments.
I already shared the Gospel TRUTH with you and it has nothing to do with the Pharisees trying to earn salvation by following God's Laws. Another straw man argument. Which church do you attend? SDA? Worldwide church of God (Armstrongism) or some type of Hebrew Roots movement?
I CAN accept that the Gospel is the "good news" of the death, burial and resurrection of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) and is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that BELIEVES.. (Romans 1:16). Can you ACCEPT this?
Are you saying that we are not righteous before salvation or are you saying we are still not righteous after salvation?

We weren't righteous before salvation, in the sense of being perfect. Sinners is what we are, and none of us are perfect. Nor are we righteous (perfect) after salvation, because despite now being saved, we DO still commit sin on occasion... God Himself says that NONE are righteous.
Why are you laughing? I read the OP's Blogs and he calls himself a Pastor of people and a Bible teacher. Why would he need to use slang or profanity to make a point?
Would you laugh, snicker and snort if he said BS or the actual word it means or worse from the pulpit or while teaching any age group, but particularly teenagers or kids?
Jesus said, For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
I understand slip ups and nobody is perfect, but the OP postures himself as a pastor and teacher of the flock and self control is a fruit any elder must have.
Nearly everyone here has used the phrase bs at one time or another... usually when calling out another person's false teachings..

He left because the mods made him angry. And called him out for something.
You are proving why people like Ralph have an issue with you and other folks. They might be calling out they see living unchanged, despite saying your saved, which includes not controlling your mouth, and what comes out of it.
You give them ammo when you think using a little bit of profanity, is a laughable matter and not a big deal, and then further suggest it is perfectly legit when coming agaisnt false doctrine.
Yet The Bible says:
James 3:8-12
[SUP]8 [/SUP]But no one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison. [SUP]9 [/SUP]With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God; [SUP]10 [/SUP]from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way. [SUP]11 [/SUP]Does a fountain send out from the same opening both fresh and bitter water? [SUP]12 [/SUP]Can a fig tree, my brethren, produce olives, or a vine produce figs? Nor can salt water produce fresh.
Prov 10:11-
The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
Prov 21:2
Every man’s way is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the hearts.
Eph 4:29-
[SUP]29 [/SUP]Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.
For an OP that says on his blogs he is Pastor David E. Dixon and claims he is a teacher of the word and Seminary trained, no unwholesome thing should ever come out of his mouth.
WHY?
2 TIm 2:24-26
[SUP]24 [/SUP]The Lord’s bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, [SUP]25 [/SUP]with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, [SUP]26 [/SUP]and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.
James 3:1-7
Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment. [SUP]2 [/SUP]For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well. [SUP]3 [/SUP]Now if we put the bits into the horses’ mouths so that they will obey us, we direct their entire body as well. [SUP]4 [/SUP]Look at the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by strong winds, are still directed by a very small rudder wherever the inclination of the pilot desires. [SUP]5 [/SUP]So also the tongue is a small part of the body, and yet it boasts of great things.
See how great a forest is set aflame by such a small fire! [SUP]6 [/SUP]And the tongue is a fire, the very world of iniquity; the tongue is set among our members as that which defiles the entire body, and sets on fire the course of our life, and is set on fire by hell. [SUP]7 [/SUP]For every species of beasts and birds, of reptiles and creatures of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by the human race.
