Bible Note: Dear Bub, It is written: Col 2:16,17 "Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day-- things which are a mere shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ." I suggest you revisit Hebrews 4 for further instruction in righteouness. Note: Sarcasem is not an endearing trait. John |
