WoW - at this point 100% of the responses NOT in favor of the statements in the OP - proceed by ignoring every Bible fact listed in the OP - in fact not challenging a single one.
How "instructive" for the unbiased objective reader.
yep -- pretty hard to ignore things that are "irrefutable" apparently. As noted in the OP
who said we ignored your irrefutable statements?
So far you have done it in every one of your posts.
Do you read your own posts?
Did you find someone else who addressed a single detail listed in the OP - in opposition to it? (including yourself of course)
If so now would be a good time to post a fact to that effect.
Were we simply "not supposed to notice"?
Seriously?
They are irrefutable so what do you want us to say?
Well you can say "yes we agree - we simply don't like it that we find no way out of agreeing with that fact as posted".
Or you could keep casting about you for "some other topic you wish we were discussing instead" as you have been doing so far.
After the new covenant took place there is nothing about Sabbath observance either.
Until you actually read it.
Hint - "this IS the New Covenant" -- Jer 31:31-34
Hint - "this IS the New Covenant" - Heb 8:6-12
You should post an actual fact to back up your wild claims.
Is it your contention that your Op is something great
My claim is that it lists irrefutable facts -- as noted in the OP.
My claim is that -- this alone is so "inconvenient" to a certain group opposing the Bible Sabbath that they will complain - and yet still be forced to agree that the OP facts are indeed "irrefutable".
I am delighted to see you join in "making my point for me" even in your own posts.
Your church spends millions trying to convince people to join
My church is the fastest growing Christian church according to Christianity Today - 2016 article -
Is this supposed to make me "feel bad"?
Is that the "other topic" you wish to discuss other than the topic of this thread??
If so - I find your argument rather weak at that point.
No wonder there are no demands in the new covenant about keeping days
The NEW Covenant Jer 31:31-34 is OLD TESTAMENT - as we all know
and "IN that CONTEXT" Jeremiah says "God writes His LAW on heart and mind" -- as everyone who actually reads the New Covenant also knows
This is not "news" to the authors of the "Baptist Confession of Fatih - sectn 19" or the "Westminster Confession of Fatih - sectn 19".
Is it your claim that Jer 31 and Hebrews 8 is "news" to you?
Maybe you should start a thread on that topic.
, Jesus has set Israel free from the Sinai Covenant. Gentile nations were never subject to them in the first place.
And so that "frees you to take God's name in vain" (since that is one of the TEN found in the OT)
Does it free you to NOT "Love God with all your heart" Deut 6:5??
Does it free you to NOT "Love your neighbor as yourself" Lev 19:18?
Does it free you to "not notice" that in the New Earth for all eternity AFTER the cross - "from Sabbath to Sabbath shall ALL MANKIND come before Me to worship"? Is 66:23
Just out of curiosity of course.
