Subject: Are we supposed to observe the Sabbath? |
Bible Note: I hold to the fact that because the resurrection as well as the pentecost was on a sunday IS WHY WE AT MY CHURCH ATTEND ON THAT DAY. IF you think that is wrong that is your opinion and I ain't mad at ya. But that is what and why we do it.(Pentecost is the only festival for which no specific date is given in the Bible. Rather, the people were instructed to count seven weeks “...from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf [omer] of the wave offering (Lev. 23:15). Pentecost was CELEBRATED ON SUNDAY CHECK LEV. Go and worship in a church with others who are worshipping Christ that Sunday (if you don't have a church, pick one and go). If you regularly go to church, invite someone to go with you for Pentecost Sunday. The Spirit birthed the fellowship of Jesus' followers (the church) that first Pentecost, so to try to worship Christ by yourself is even more of a rejection of the Spirit on Pentecost than it usually is. -Robert Longman Jr. Compare these First Pentecost (The Commandments Given) Pentecost After Christ (The Holy Spirit Given) First Pentecost -Fifty days from the crossing of the Red Sea Pentecost After Christ -Fifty days from the resurrection of Christ First Pentecost -Law of Yahweh written in Stone Pentecost After Christ -Law of Yahweh written on our hearts First Pentecost -Three thousand slain Pentecost After Christ Three -thousand receive salvation First Pentecost -The letter of the Law Pentecost After Christ -The Spirit of the Law This is the end of my research for your sake... I am indeed a Christian and take no offense at your statement about the possibility of my responses making me or them against Christ. LOL and yes that is funny. These are the things that let me know I must be serving him. But I have not the time or inclination to debate you. As I said before... if you have otherwise... do as I do... post your reasons. But please get off my back... unlike many here I am not looking for a war of words, nor am I here to prove that I am the smartest LOL. I readily admit that I am not the sharpest pencil in the can. BUT I KNOW THAT I LOVE THE LORD WITH EVERYTHING THAT IS IN ME. And all of the research and learned knowledge in the world will never EVER change that. I only seek that He be glorified, I seek no glory. His grace is sufficient for me, khuck |
