literally would be different, and the Sabbath would be mentioned

Reading through John 19-20, I noticed they had to take our precious Savior's life before 6pm because before high Sabbath. My understanding of this is that it was a Sabbath WITH the holy day of Passover.

would've put crucifixtion at Friday, 3:00, the same time they would have been sacrificing the Passover lambs for the feast that evening (6pm Friday night would've been the beginning of Passover/Sabbath)

To add to this the Feast of Unleavened Bread would've been the day before.

With this timing, Christ was sharing the bread at communion during the Feast of Unleavened Bread and would've been sacrificed at the same exact time the Passover Lamb was sacrificed.... thereby showing the completion of the atonement of sins through the shedding of His blood.

Then he was laid to rest for the day of Sabbath, rose third day, Lord's day, His Resurrection brought new day, a high Sabbath now fulfilled by the Messiah, our rest in Him.

the theme song of American Christianity.

so what happens after they've preached on it and the hearts of the people have changed???

then when they do something, be it in their jobs, places in community or step out in someway, will Moore then be there to say the gospel is not about action, just a prayer you say?

what if our men actually showed up to meetings and told the councils, enough, not on our watch?

he'd probably condemn them? I can only judge from actions in the past.

I could be wrong, and would be glad to be shown otherwise, that his only "reaction" besides being "sad" (and the occasional visit to a women's center) is a Nat'l law change.... that's it.

until then, we are supposed to be ok with the shedding of innocent blood in our cities and the covering up of incest, rape through these centers?

they are censoring lines even in somewhat secular songs to make them communitarian.

because people are blinded by sin. they are easily deceived. there are only two destinations for man: heaven and h#ll.

the road to destruction is wide.

salvation is but one way, through Jesus Christ.

there's many a catholic basher who's destiny is shared with Francis, and if they can't stand sharing space here, I'd suggest finding out how one might belong to the Kingdom of God.

Jim, what is balance? What we need is truth. GOP has their hands dirty too. No one disputes it, but the issue at hand is the taking of innocent life. Moyers is prochoice, you seem confused.

its no different here. the democrats and others are covering their noses, their eyes, they don't want to see what they really are, they don't want to see the stench of the unborn.

"To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,

"Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

"Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

"Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

"And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

"But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:"
1Pet2:4-9

The converted Jew and Gentile are the chosen people, the royal priesthood, Christ is the cornerstone, His people He died for are the LIVING Stones.

that is to say, they should remain silent.

We also know he was spiritually blinded when he was following what he thought was the law and persecuting Christians, before his physical blindness.

and as I'm discussing by my lonesome, as per the article is the development of the sciences to merge species and humans.

our food supply is dominated by this. pick up some peanut butter and the oils and sugars in there are genetically modified sources.

we are in a brave new world already.

how many farmers have warned us that their crops have been ruined by the crosspollination from this unnatural seed, the harm on the food system, the animals the humans.... yet the lust for power of a company to dominate over God's seed and own it, and force farmers into high payments and legal agreements (not able to resell their seed, and the seed is genetically coded to not produce)

these are all reversals of creation. as is sodomy.

its as plain as day this new religion. evangelicals are too much in the middle of it to see it.

"And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:

"And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

"And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

"And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

"And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

"And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.

"And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink."

1- "saw no man", was led by hand, indications of physical blindness
