petra1: That John wasn't on "The Lord's Day", i.e, the day of God's wrath? Haven't I agreed that your Sunday worship is indeed a day of wrath? Keep deceiving yourself. PS: Meanwhile, have you not seen the question I asked in my continuation page of this topic? What was the need of using maximum force and death threats to enforce your Sunday worship, a day supposedly used by the apostles and saints for worship? |

Splinz: I know it's a little challenging for you to shift ground expecially when you've been raised in this inductrination. But the truth is the truth . Do a search The lords day was Sunday. 1[b] Corinthians 16:2[/b] (TLB) 2 [b]On every Lord's Day [/b]each of you should put aside something from what you have earned during the week, and use it for this offering. The amount depends on how much the Lord has helped you earn. Don't wait until I get there and then try to collect it all at once. This is just elementary bible truth. Do a study you will see that you've been taught wrongly. I just hope you have the liver to accept when you see it. PS: Meanwhile, have you not seen the question I asked in my continuation page of this topic?

And here you are, asking him to search for truth People refuse to hear the truth and don't like to search for it because they don't want their illusions destroyed petra1: He has liver alright, but his liver is rejecting the truth The truth is neither bad nor good, its just the truth but he hasnt the mind to stomach it petra1:Thank for this riposte He was insulting intelligence that the bible forced anyone |

petra1: Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but fulfil. Jesus said that till Heaven and Earth pass away one T or dot of the law would not pass away. Since Jesus gave a command that only if Heaven and Earth would pass away for his Law to be abolished.he never said his death. and since the death of JESUS Heaven and Earth is still standing ,so how did you and your church abolish the law? or are you saying JESUS is a lair. The problem is that you believe the world you see.let me tell you. about 75% of the things in the world you see and believe in world history are all fake. |

MuttleyLaff: I have 2 questions for you: 1.) Are you a Christian (follower of Christ)? Then read this; Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 2.) Was Paul a Christian? Obvious yes. He was among the disciples who was seen in Antioch where the name "Christian" was used to describe the followers of Jesus. Read; Acts 17:2 And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, So, what is your argument again? 1 Like 1 Share |

GodsMopol: You say man has total control of the Sabbath? Don't you think that is blasphemy because God is His law and He changeth not. How dare you say whether Sabbath or Sunday, all that pleases God is fellowship? What then is God's standard? Which day did Jesus keep in Luke 4:16? Mind you, he was in fellowship in that text. 1 Like |

blueAgent: Yeah bro... I was hoping they'll start worshiping their “another Jesus” on Monday, since the true Jesus Christ was never crucified on Friday nor did He rose on Sunday. But you know... Sunday is a very special day to worship their own god. Did you see how they denied their Fri-Sun tradition, and by extension, their pagan Easter Good Friday crucifixion and early Sunday sunrise resurrection? That is the power of Scriptural truths! It shatters silly human inventions and theories... Now, Christ was placed in the tomb just before sunset on Wednesday. Three complete days (three days and three nights) bring us to the end of the weekly Sabbath, just prior to sunset, when Christ was resurrected—just as He had prophesied! Christ couldn't have afford to either lost or gain even a second in the grave, or else, He is not the Christ! His 72 hours duration in the grave was simply a case of 71:59 tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock......BOOM!—like a timed bomb waiting to explode—Christ is risen! Luke 24:1 states, “Now upon the first day of the week [Sunday], very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulcher, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.” The women found the tomb empty (vs. 3). Two angels in shining garments informed them that Christ was already “risen” [past tense] (vs. 4-6). Mark 16:2 states that the women were present “at the rising of the sun.” This means Jesus was resurrected before sunrise. John 20:1 further tells us that Mary Magdalene came early “when it was yet dark” and found the stone that sealed the tomb was already rolled away. No sunrise resurrection could have occurred—because Jesus was already resurrected on Saturday the Sabbath day, just prior to sunset. He didn't rise when the people came to the tomb early Sunday but was already “risen!” Have you seen how cherished and long held traditions of men, wickedly invented as a means of using it to validate their pagan Sunday worship, as well as to deceive, is tossed to the trash can? Have you also seen that Christ resurrection on the Sabbath day further validate and confirmed that period of time as “holy”? |
Re: Who Authorized Sunday Worship? by Philadelphia: 12:39pm On Mar 03, 2017 |
petra1: Your first text has nothing to do with worship. Read it again. Revelation 1:10 did not mention Sunday as the Lord's day. Jesus said He is the Lord of the Sabbath. If the Sabbath is a day and Jesus is the Lord of that day, then the Lord's day is the Sabbath day. Jesus appearing to his disciples when they were gathered was not to worship with them. The reason the disciples gathered was because they were hiding and were afraid of being killed too. Don't misquote Paul in Col 2:16. If he dint regard the Sabbath, what was he doing in Acts 17:2? The sabbaths mentioned in Col 2:16 are the sabbaths of feasts e.g the 7 year sabbath. Read Col 2 and even verse 6, youd know that it talks about feast days and the Sabbath mentioned is Not the weekly Sabbath Day. 1 Like |

blueAgent: It's really a sad reality bro. These people don't believe verses like the ones you've quoted above, nor the perpetual Sabbath SIGN between God's true people (Exodus 31:17). Could it be that I do not know the meaning of “perpetuity” or it was God that didn't know? PS: It is written: “Satan deceives the whole world” (Rev. 12:9). Indeed! The only people freed from this deception are those “not of the world” (John 17:16). That the world worships on Sunday doesn't make pagan Sunday worship a day authorized by God, nor does it means they're right. 1 Like 1 Share |

Splinz: 1 Corinthians 16:2 (MSG) 2 Every Sunday each of you make an offering and put it in safekeeping. Be as generous as you can. When I get there you'll have it ready, and I won't have to make a special appeal. The apostles laid the foundation of Sunday worship |
Re: Who Authorized Sunday Worship? by petra1(m): 2:39pm On Mar 03, 2017 |
Philadelphia: This twisting is not selling at all . The lords day is Sunday ,first day of the week 1 Corinthians 16:2 (TLB) 2 On every Lord's Day each of you should put aside something from what you have earned during the week, and use it for this offering. The amount depends on how much the Lord has helped you earn. Don't wait until I get there and then try to collect it all at once. Jesus said He is the Lord of the Sabbath. If the Sabbath is a day and Jesus is the Lord of that day, then the Lord's day is the Sabbath day. Yes the sabbath of Saturday was a shadow of christ . Christ is the real sabbath . He has come to give rest . This rest is not about a particular day of the weeek it's a life in us. When you come in to christ you've entered into sabbath. But the early church started to fellowship on Sundays even though God is no longer limited to a holy day. Colossians 2:16 (KJV Strong's) 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sa bbath days: Romans 14:5 (KJV Strong's) 5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. So John in revelation 1 was making reference to the general knowledge of Sunday being the lords day. |

petra1: Straw man arguments. You keep on recycling the same thing over and over again, as if it will suddenly turned true. What has been refuted countless times? Go and find out who laid the foundation of your Sunday worship in Rome. The true Church has never had such hybrid doctrine, nor was it practiced in the Old Testament. The Church is built on the teachings of the apostles and prophets! 1 Like |

Re: Who Authorized Sunday Worship? by Philadelphia: 3:25pm On Mar 03, 2017 |
petra1: 1 Cor 16:2 is not talking about worship here. Remember in the previous text I shared, Jesus said ...pray your journey does not occur on the Sabbath Day.. Now if the Sabbath day that Jesus referred to is this one you're quoting in 1Cor. 16:2, then Paul must be sinning by travelling on the Sabbath day as he went through Macedonia. Remember, this Sabbath we are talking about in Col. 2:16 is not the weekly Sabbath (Seventh-Day) except maybe you don't know that there are diverse types of sabbaths in the bible. The sabbath nailed to the cross is not the weekly Sabbath (the one found in the 10 commandments). If you say it is, then you mean the whole 10 commandments have been nailed to the cross because the Sabbath mentioned in the 10 commandments is the weekly Sabbath. So, can I steal now? Can I kill and commit adultery? Or is the 10 commandments a shadow of this gs to come? Remember, this is the very portion of the Bible that God wrote with His own finger. God is His Word and He said Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. So how was this His Word a shadow of things? Isaiah also said "Isaiah 40:8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever." Now, if it was the 10 commandments (where the 4th commandment is) that was nailed to the cross, why did James have this to say? "James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. 2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law." Why would he refer to the law again (after Jesus went to heaven) if it was nailed to the cross? Remember, the New Testament was written after Jesus was dead and resurrected. |
Re: Who Authorized Sunday Worship? by Philadelphia: 3:30pm On Mar 03, 2017 |
petra1: Is it only the Sabbath day law (1/10) that was a shadow? Please explain this statement from James. Now, if it was the 10 commandments (where the 4th commandment is) that was nailed to the cross, why did James have this to say? "James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. 2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law." Why would he refer to the law again (after Jesus went to heaven) if it was nailed to the cross? Remember, the New Testament was written after Jesus was dead and resurrected. Tell me where the Sabbath day we'd keep in heaven would come from if it had already been nailed to the cross. Or would Jesus remove the nail? Here's what Isaiah said; "Isaiah 66:22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. 66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD." Oya come and explain oooo 1 Like 1 Share |

Splinz: Please ask Petra1 to help me explain this since he said the 10 commandments law has been nailed to the cross. Let him explain the one in bold: Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Is the commandment kept here the one already nailed to the cross? |
Re: Who Authorized Sunday Worship? by MuttleyLaff: 7:27pm On Mar 03, 2017 |
Philadelphia:Something very important, most people don't know note is that, Jesus never taught, never preached and most definitely never told anyone to keep the Sabbath Isnt it strange that, God whilst on earth (i.e. in the person of Jesus Christ) explicitly repeats almost all the ten commandments but nowhere in scripture did He ever in clear, specific and direct language talk about keeping the sabbath (i.e. God whilst on earth (i.e. in the person of Jesus Christ) didnt ever talked about keeping the fourth commandment) If keeping the sabbath is very dear & important to Him, why, isnt the fourth commandment, like other laws from the ten commandments, as shown in where you've quoted me, explicitly talked about, preached, taught or commanded by God whilst on earth (i.e. in the person of Jesus Christ)? Philadelphia:As I correctly was pointing out to Splinz, the Gentiles that Paul was teaching to, on the sabbath, were Greek proselytes who converted to Judaism (i.e. Judaists using petra1's coinage) and NOT followers of Jesus Paul was not keeping the sabbath but was attending the Jew & Greek gatherings on their sabbath day to convince & win them over with the gospel Your ''followers of Jesus'' sic in Acts 17:2 are not followers of Jesus but are unbelieving Jews that Paul was again trying to win over with the gospel You're familiar with the ''go ye into world and make disciples...'', well thaty's exactly what Paul was doing He went into their world and was not a case of keeping the sabbath The Jewish synagogue is usually a full house on a sabbath day |
Re: Who Authorized Sunday Worship? by MuttleyLaff: 7:28pm On Mar 03, 2017 |
Philadelphia:What if He said that? Now tell me. Did Jesus ever, explicitly say keep the sabbath Anyway Jesus mentioned sabbath in that sentence to magnify and reflect the severity of the warning of what will happen concerning Jerusalem and particularly the temple Are you not aware of Exodus 16:29 and how the Jews interpreted the latter part of it? Now, if you fast rewind to 70 A.D., the penny will drop and you will understand why Jesus constructed that statement in that style or manner of speaking. |
