There are several reasons for testing, both positive and negative, but I'll concentrate on the positive today. I think you'll find to the same effect in the scriptures what I am about to say. In short, it's not for God's purpose, per se, other than to make you better. It's edification. The...

To put this into context, read 2 Kings 9:30-37. But before you do, promise me you'll pray for her. Nobody want's God's judgement and there's still time to repent. But for those who don't, the righteous will be satisfied, that's a promise.

Jesus was the lamb of God. For Passover they had to take a lamb, inspect it and live with it for 5 days, i.e. they took it on the 10th of Nisan before slaying it the evening of the 14th. That day was the same as palm "Sunday" (and like the crucifixion day of the week which is different, his...

Yes, I believe we are saying the same thing. That's why I posted that chart back on post 132 to clarify what I verbally said. Thursday and Saturday were Sabbaths. Three Days?

To look at scriptural timing logically, the reason many folks interpret the Crucifixion as being on a Friday is because of the verse that stated the next day was a Sabbath. Ok. Nothing wrong with that. So that can be a weekly Sabbath, but are there other possibilities? Yes. John 19:31 calls...

Actually I love the scriptures. I can't get enough of them. Even if I misunderstood them, that is not the same as despising them which is a strong accusation. So you are dead wrong. And the scriptures I gave one can form a logical conclusion. And, by the way, you did not answer the question...

Well then perhaps you may want to enlighten all of us what the scriptures say that the chart is incorrect. Or to put it another way, tell us what the chart should look like.

Just so that everyone knows what I stated and supported with scripture, here is a picture that states 1000 words I attached. I quoted your post April Rose, since you initiated this thread.

Not sure what you are saying here, but the hour Jesus defined we know by the context of that passage. If he asked about 12 hours in the day, then he's defining that kind of hour from the way they told time (because there were 12 hours in a day). It's not about hours; as I pointed out he was...

Sure. Matthew 27:57, Mark 15:42, Luke 23:54-56, John 19: 39-42 which is where I and everyone else, get the idea that he was interred the time the sun was going down, because the (high) Sabbath was starting soon (John 19:31).

This topic gets brought up yearly, and rightly so. As you (and even a child) can understand, from Friday afternoon until pre-dawn Sunday morning in the night is nowhere near three days and three nights. Even if we count parts of days, 3 days would work better in a Gentile calendar, not a Jewish...

I hear you. I was the same way many years ago in another place and another time. You held it all in not knowing if you could control your feelings, anxiety builds and sadness comes in and finally the dam breaks one day. And no matter how we tried to save the world, it's frustrating when it...

If you love me, keep my commandments.

Pragmatically speaking about church, for the past several years I have been an advocate for "house churches" about the size of a bible study 10 maybe 15 people maximum. One should be careful who they invite. We had a good private bible study going, I and 3-4 other women(we are all old so it's...

Yes, I think I remember your handle. I don't remember much about you, though, sorry to say:( (not intended as in insult):D

Denver was a cool person. While I was not sure of all his beliefs, he tolerated differing beliefs. I was a lot into lost tribes of Israel, their migrations, the Great PYramid, stars, and other such esoteric stuff. Also a lot of end time stuff. Most of the people that ended up on the other...

Yes, Denver was Hammerstone now that you mentioned it. I remember the others as well.

I was in my early forties then. That's close to twenty years so.... ya know, maybe I',m gettin' a bit old, too. This board may have been closer to MID-2000's but early to mid we are just mincing 2-3 years.

Hmmmm. Fishing pole. I don't remember that one. I had several until recently settling on ol' Sir Isaac here. It's possible you meant the sundial as I am a gnomonist, too.

A fun question is who here are originals yet when this forum was created in the early 2000's (I believe it was then but time flies)? The owner of this board originally was "Denver", a nice guy and too nice for his own good (lol) as he was too forgiving when disputes would take place, creating a...
