Now if the Sabbath was abolished, there would be many verses and much text to show it, yet there is none. The apostles would have had many discussions and the councils at Jerusalem would have written at least one with a determination of it being abolished and yet there is nothing. Paul exhorts...

It is part of His character, a law showing love, love to God and to our fellowman. He is not going to change because men think they can override and change what out of His love He did at Creation and wrote with His own finger.

Shabbat Shalom my friend, the problem is there is only one question. Do we obey God or do we follow the traditions of man, it all boils down to that.

Now did God know that this attempt to change His holy Sabbath would occur? "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of...

He doesn't change the day, that is clear throughout the whole Bible. He is consistent especially about His Law. Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

This verse is referring to the Mosaic Law (some say Sinaic Law or Levitical Law, some say ceremonial law) and this is evident by the inclusion of the "new moon" phrase as well as reference to the meat and drink offerings that would take place (compare to Leviticus 23:37). There are two sets of...

You wont find one verse in the New Testament that changes the Sabbath, or even one that makes a new "Lords Day" or moves it because of the resurrection to the first day. Now if you read, the Lords day was always on the Sabbath. Exodus 20:8-11 8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six...

The understanding of the Law was given to man way before Moses as scripture makes clear... "Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws." Genesis 26:5 The Ten Commandments were not part of Moses’ ceremonial law as scripture clearly...

We cannot trust the traditions of men on the Sabbath vs. Sunday issue, for this is not safe, nor in just mere human opinions. Instead we need to know what scripture actually says, and above all, what Jesus Christ Himself taught, so we accept His pure teaching as our final authority. Jesus...

True, the 10 Commandments are part of Gods character, and Christ reaffirmed them along with the Sabbath, so we should carefully reexamine them.

Well, it seems there is a adversion to discuss what's in the Bible in a Christian context. What happens when we die or are resurrected is certainly a central theme in the Bible and to shunt it aside can have unintended consequences on the openness of discussion or appear to be what some may...

We cannot just shut out or put aside what is in the scriptures, or worse the doctrines it teaches, because it does not necessarily go with the flavor of Christianity we ascribe to. If we don't agree with the truths that even Christ reaffirmed or any part of the doctrines in scripture, we cant...

The 'Spiritual Conundrum' is clear. Imagine the traditional teaching, where we have a spirit and we go to heaven as a spirit when we die. Then please tell me, what is the point of the resurrection? If we are already in heaven, as immortal spirits, then why would we need to be transformed into...

Here is scripture and well put together understanding of this topic: Premise Traditionally most people believe that there is a ghost-like “spirit” inside of our bodies, and when we die, this spirit floats away somewhere, preferably heaven. I will show that the Bible actually does not support...

So now that we clarify some the translation issues, we can more clearly see what scripture teaches. If we read the Hebrew text, we see the prophets who wrote the Bible did not know the word "Hell"; they used the Hebrew Sheol, which meant the grave, and also descriptions which with the...

So lets first look at the translation of the words closely to see their original meaning: · Hades was the Greek work used in some places for the Hebrew term, Sheol or grave as "the place of the dead". Thus, it is used in reference to both the righteous and the wicked, since both wind up there...

Now lets look some of the confusion at happens for both the good and the bad after death, and where the saints will go and also the ultimate destruction of the wicked in the Lake of Fire in a consuming fire, but which because of the Greek words used in translating from the Hebrew text has become...

A lot of the confusion comes from Greek pagan ideas and philosophy which crept into the church and has twisted a lot of what people believe. Take the false doctrine of purgatory which teaches that a Christian's soul must burn in purgatory after death until all of their sins have been purged. To...

There are those who say that if you are acquainted with the Bible and deny the eternal punishment of the wicked, you are not honest. That if the judgment of the wicked is not forever, then salvation of the saints is not forever, because the term of forever is used of both. So is the judgment of...

Look at what Christ said and did and it shows you. Look at when speaking to His disciples about Lazarus, Jesus said: Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep. Then said his disciples, if he sleep he shall do well. Howbeit, Jesus spoke of his death; but they...
