Subject: EdB, Did He die on Thursday? |
Bible Note: This post can't be taken seriously, EdB... Tell me, did you ever attend a Good Friday Service in the United Brethren or United Methodist Church? Did you learn anything about the chronology of the days and what they symbolized at the Good Friday Service? Do you realize that you are entirely refuting the whole Scriptural basis and tradition of Good Friday? If you are willing to do without this part of the Bible and bend its truth, then what else in the Bible are you willing to forsake? |
