Already responded to in post 835, Bob, my man!Does not matter since no bible text frames days of the week that way.
In the Bible each day is "evening to evening" sunset to sunset and not "Manilla to Sinai".
Already responded to in post 835.In the Bible each day is "evening to evening" sunset to sunset and not "Seattle to Manilla".
God says "tomorrow is the Sabbath" in Ex 16.
not "tomorrow is the Sabbath in Manilla"
Already responded to in post 835.God says "tomorrow is the Sabbath" in Ex 16.
For 40 yeas there was no manna on exactly the 7th day each week.
Already responded to in post 835.There is a reason that everyone gets this right - the Jews and the Christians all know what day is the Bible Sabbath 7th day at Sinai. Even Muslims know it.
Already responded to in post 835.You should be able to see by now - how this off-topic topic of yours should go to its own thread.
That's right! It doesn't say if evening of the seventh day in Manila or Seattle is before or after evening of the seventh day in Sinai.The bible says each day is "from evening to evening" in Gen 1 and in Lev 23... period.
That's not what I'm sayingYour what-about-the rabbits "in Austrailia international-dateline at the time of Adam keeping the 7th day Sabbath" is just nonsense that you focus on for this thread...
It is absolutely on topic for this thread. Saturday in the Sinai, but could be Sunday in other places. It may not have been what you were thinking when you wrote the title and OP, that's definitely possible. But it's on topic.- and is simply not an issue for this topic.
Here's the point, or at least part of itYou need a point.
Well, if it's okay according to the scriptures to celebrate the seventh day in Manila after Sinai, then you would be celebrating it in what the government there calls Saturday evening to Sunday evening.
So if this thread title works just as well:
Why the weekly Sabbath (Sunday) is the Lord's Day, in the Bible
then you're right, it doesn't matter.
Yes, that's because they go with what their local governments have decided. If local governments governments have the authority to say where the days start, then that's fine.IN today's world - Christians and Jews agree on the days of the week where Saturday is day 7. Even in Manila
If you consider the international date line part of reality, something that God wants us to pay attention to, then you're right! I'm not aware of any scriptures that say pay attention to the international date line.Only if you ignore all of reality.
If local governments have the authority to say what day it is, that to me is a surprising conclusion from most seventh day observers.
It's on topic here. If you don't want to talk about it anymore, that's fine.In any case feel free to start your "7th day was never Saturday" thread where you argue that the Gospel reference to Christ raised on the first day of the week is really MONDAY. See how much traction your off-topic topic gets there because at least in that case - your discussion point will be ON topic.
A random proverb
Now therefore, my sons, listen to me. Don’t depart from the words of my mouth.
