The Israeli palestinian conflict Why many suffer due to the unbelief (Lack of Faith) of one person

Genesis 15 :18 In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
God said "And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be numbered" (verse 16). Significantly, God later changed Abram's name to Abraham (Genesis 17:5). His earlier name meant "high (exalted) father." God renamed him "father of a multitude," saying, "I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you" (verse 6).

At the time these prophecies must have seemed ironic to Abraham, for his wife Sarah was barren. Her infertility was to be very significant in the development of the modern Middle East.

God promised Abraham in Genesis 15:4 that he would have an heir: "one who will come from your own body." Impatient, Sarah told Abraham to take her Egyptian handmaid Hagar and to produce a child by her. This took place "after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan" (Genesis 16:1-3).

Abraham's first son is born

"So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress became despised in her eyes" (Genesis 16:4). The relationship between Sarah and Hagar quickly deteriorated and Hagar fled.

But a divine message was given to Hagar, telling her to return. It also reassured her that her son would have many descendants—but descendants with traits that would be evident throughout their history: "I will so increase your descendants that they will be too numerous to count ... You are now with child and you will have a son. You shall name him Ishmael ['God hears'], for the LORD has heard of your misery. He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone's hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers" (verses 10-12, New International Version).

This description of Hagar's descendants is significant because many of today's Arabs are Ishmaelites—descendants of this same Ishmael, whose father was Abraham. Muhammad, the founder and prophet of Islam, was descended from Kedar, one of the 12 sons of Ishmael (Ismail in Arabic). Today 22 nations in the Middle East and North Africa are Arabic nations, most of whose people are adherents of Islam. An additional 35 countries are members of the Islamic Conference, most of them with Islamic governments, but whose people are of different descent.

Even before Ishmael's descendants arrived in the area, the term arab was used to denote the peoples of the Arabian peninsula. With the spread of Islam, Arabs and the Arabic language today encompass a vast region.

The divinely prophetic words spoken to Hagar are still of great significance today. The prophecy that Ishmael "will be a wild donkey of a man" is not meant as an insult. The wild donkey was the aristocrat of the wild beasts of the desert, the preferred prey of hunters. The prophecy is a reference to how Ishmael's descendants would emulate the lifestyle of the wild donkey, leading a free and noble existence in the desert.

"His hand will be against everyone, and everyone's hand against him" similarly refers to this independent lifestyle. Ishmael's descendants have always resisted foreign domination. "He will live in hostility towards all his brothers" is a reference to the enmity that has historically existed among the Arabs and between the Arabs and the other sons of Abraham.

Abraham's second son

Fourteen years after the birth of Ishmael, God blessed Abraham with another son, this time by his wife Sarah. He told them to name their son Isaac (meaning "laughter" for the incredulous reaction they had when told they would have a son at their advanced age as well as the joy that he would later bring to his parents, Genesis 17:17, 19; 18:10-15; 21:5-6). Isaac in turn fathered Jacob, also named Israel Genesis 35:10, the father of the Israelites. Ismael's and Isaac's descendants are therefore cousins.

"So the child [Isaac] grew and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the same day that Isaac was weaned. And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, scoffing. Therefore she said to Abraham, 'Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, namely with Isaac'" (Genesis 21:8-10).

This displeased Abraham, who had grown to love Ishmael. "But God said to Abraham, '... Whatever Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice; for in Isaac your seed shall be called" (verse 12). God further reassured Abraham: "Yet I will also make a nation of the son of the bondwoman [Ishmael], because he is your seed" (verse 13). "So God was with the lad; and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness ..." (verse 20).

It cannot be said that Ishmael hated Isaac. But after 14 years as an only child, Isaac's arrival fundamentally changed Ishmael's relationship with his father, Abraham. Afterward, Ishmael felt envy and rivalry toward his half brother, feelings that tribally have survived down through the centuries and which affect the politics of the Middle East today.

Isaac's two sons

Further family complications were ahead. Isaac, in turn, had two sons, Jacob and Esau, twins by his wife Rebekah. Even before they were born, "the children struggled together within her" (Genesis 25:22). God explained: "Two nations are in your womb, two peoples shall be separated from your body; one people shall be stronger than the other, and the older shall serve the younger" (verse 23). Both brothers were to father great nations, a blessing from God to Abraham's grandsons.

Normally the firstborn would receive the birthright, but here it was to be different. The Bible records that Esau sold his birthright to Jacob for a bowl of lentil stew (verses 29-34), showing how little it meant to him. Sometime later, Jacob tricked his father into giving him the birthright blessing (chapter 27). For this, "Esau hated Jacob" (verse 41).

Again, the consequences of this are with us to this day.The descendants of Esau (also called Edom, Genesis 25:30) intermarried with Ishmael's descendants, their bitterness and resentment against Jacob's descendants intensifying through the centuries. Esau's grandson Amalek (Genesis 36:12) was the father of the Amalekites, who became bitter foes of the descendants of Jacob, the 12 tribes of Israel. A prophecy about Amalek foretold endless war between them "from generation to generation" (Exodus 17:16). Some scholars believe that many of today's Palestinians are largely the descendants of the Amalekites.

God has a Church

God Has a Church

It is not the great cathedral,
Neither is it the national establishment
Neither is it the various denominations.
It is the people
who love God
and keep his commandments.

“Where two or three are gathered
in my name,
There I am in the midst of them.”
[Matthew 18: 20]

Where Christ is among the humble few,
This is Christ’s church,
for the presence of the high and Holy One Who inhabiteth eternity
CAN ALONE CONSTITUTE
A CHURCH
[The Upward Look, Page 315]

The church has one Foundation
Samuel J. Stone, pub.1866 (1839-1900)
arr. and v. 3-5 by Charles W. Naylor, 1907

based on

1. The church has one foundation,
   ’Tis Jesus Christ her Lord;
   She is His new creation,
   Through water by the word.
   From heav’n He came and sought her
   To be His holy bride;
   With His own blood He bought her,
   And for her life He died.
2. Elect from every nation,
   Yet one o’er all the earth,
   Her charter of salvation—
   One Lord, one faith, one birth.
   One holy name she blesses,
   Partakes one holy food;
   And to one hope she presses,
   With every grace endued.
3. Long with a scornful wonder
   Men saw her sore oppressed,
   By schisms rent asunder,
   By heresies distressed.
   Yet saints their watch were keeping
   To hail a brighter day,
   When God should stop their weeping,
   Take their reproach away.
4. The evening sun is shining,
   The cloudy day is past;
   The time of their repining
   Is at an end at last.
   The voice of God is calling
   To unity again;
   Division walls are falling,
   With all the creeds of men.
5. Back to the one foundation,
   From sects and creeds made free,
   Come saints of every nation
   To blessed unity.
   Once more the ancient glory
   Shines as in days of old,
   And tells the wondrous story—
   One God, one faith, one fold.

Why we have so many versions of the bible

December 25

Battle of the bibles

Within this month The question was posed to me Why would you trust the Bible ? There are so many versions of the bible. Some have even site what they call "inaccuracies in the Bible.

Well the bible is powerful enough to withstand any critique without anyones help.

Bible versions :KJV (King James Version), NIV (New International Version), NAS (New American Standard), NKJV (New King James Version), ESV (English Standard Version), NLT (New Living Translation) and some more.

While Walter Vieth (http://amazingdiscoveries.org/media-Video-TotalOnslaught.html ) video 213 , 214 adequately explains who is behind the many translations or "upgrades"

and why they would seek to mislead and build mistrust in God's word throughout the world .

Abigail Riplinger Goes through the actual changes and shows technicalities that actually amplifies the motive of special interest groups stated by Walter Vieth.

The Plot is so simple, sinister at its best, but the motive is more than clear to even the unchurched or irriligious

Abigail Riplinger's book above (NEW AGE BIBLE VERSION) IS A MUST READ If you cant get the book see the embedded video below .Its the book actually in video lecture format lol

Television, Internet, Video Game Screens & Church

Let's start with some statistics:

In the average American home, the television is turned on 6 hours and 47 minutes per day.
66% of Americans regularly watch television while eating dinner.
The average American child watches 28 hours of television, including 17 scenes of murder, per week.
The average American child plays 9 hours of video games per week.
94% of Teen-rated (13 years or older) video games contain "Violence" or "Violence and Blood" content.
The first exposure to internet pornography occurs on the average at 11 years of age.
47% of Christians "admit" pornography to be a problem in their homes.
40% of pastors with home internet access "admit" to visiting pornographic websites.
(Sources: A.C. Nielsen & Co., TV-Free America, Mediafamily.org, Focus on the Family)

Appalling, isn't it? There are more numbers - just as appalling - from the named and other sources, and they all point to the same two conclusions: (A) we spend far too much time staring into screens of televisions, video games and internet devices; and (B) Satan is spewing poison through those screens to destroy individuals, marriages, families and ministries.

What about television news?

Crimes, disasters, wars and commercials account for 84% of local television news broadcast time, which is almost devoid of coverage, let alone balanced coverage, of what is happening to the body of Christ around the world today.

What about television sports?

While idolization of sports stars is idolatrous on its own, the bigger issue is the aggregate amount of time Christians spend watching sports on television. God gave us time to serve Him, but billions of hours of what should be dedicated to sowing seeds and reaping harvest for Jesus are being wasted on couches watching people run after balls.

What about Christian television channels and programs?

They may call themselves "Christian" but few present the true Gospel, and much if not most of their content, including all of their incessant begging for money, is an embarrassment to the true body of Christ and our Lord.

Granted, there is nothing intrinsically bad about the technology behind televisions, video games, computers and the Internet, and they aren't completely devoid of positive content. However, given the state of the majority of the content, something has to be done to stop Satan from poisoning the body of Christ and robbing us of our Christ-serving time.

What should be done?

1. Eliminate from the home all televisions, video games and gaming consoles. The kids may protest and you'll be left out of water cooler chatter about sports and television. But you will get to talk to your family during dinner, read better quality news online (the last page lists Christian news websites) or in print, and have more time to pray, read the bible and serve the Lord.

2. Install the latest parental control software and filters on all computers and other web devices. Closely monitor children's emails, online community profiles, limit Internet access to fixed, non-private locations, and think of other ways to increase transparency and accountability for Internet usage. The last page lists a site that helps those struggling against pornography.

3. Ensure that your kids are not watching television, playing video games or surfing the web unsupervised at their friends' homes. Collaborate with the parents of their friends. If they won't collaborate, keep your kids away from their homes.

The Origins of Christmas

Jerimiah 10:1-5
1Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:
2Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
3For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
4They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
5They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.

Christmas
Christmas is another festival in the Christian church that antedates
Christianity by hundreds of years, and that is of pure pagan origin. Like
Easter, it brings with it numerous trappings that are a certain guide as to
its source. Among the ancients, the mistletoe was sacred to the sun because
of its yellow color, and was believed to possess mirac­ulous healing powers.
Kissing under the mistletoe likewise is pre-Christian, and was but an early
step in the night of revelry and drunken debauchery with which the pagans
celebrated the death of the old sun and the birth of the new at the time of
the winter solstice.

Holly berries were also sacred to the sun-god among the demon worshipers of
the Old World. The yule log is in reality the sun log, for "yule" means sun
or wheel (an ancient symbol of the sun) in some languages today, and our
English word "wheel"-comes from this source. Even the lighting of fires and
candles as a Christmas ceremony is but a continua­tion of the pagan custom
of encourag­ing the waning sun-god as he reached the lowest place in the
southern skies.

Christmas, as a celebration of the birth of the sun, not the Son, was
widespread among the ancients. The Arabians cele­brated the birth of the
moon, considered as an emanation of the sun, on December 4 To this day, the
most important state observance in China occurs on De­cember 21, the
sacrifice of the winter solstice. In Rome, the pagan Brumalia occurred on
December 25, long before the birth of Christ. Christmas was a holyday in
Mithraism, the Persian form of demon worship. Centuries before the birth of
Christ, the Egyptians likewise celebrated Christmas much as it is
cele­brated today.



CHRISTMAS STEMS FROM SUN WORSHIP?

The author of "The Two Babylons" identifies also the child, whose birth was so universally celebrated, with The king turn God Nimrod, who built the tower of Babel, and says that he was worshiped by Egyption Gods namely Osiris in Egypt, and Tammuz (the same one as Adonis the famous hunter) in Phoenicia and Assyria. (See page 56.) This Tammuz is also mentioned by the holy prophet, Ezekiel, who in a vision saw the women of Judah weeping for him. He is there spoken of in company with sun-worship. Notice This has nothing to do With CHRIST

"It was an essential principle of the Babylonian system that the sun, or Baal, was the one only god. (Notice, "BAAL?" As in Daniels in the Book of Daniel in the bible day too?) When, therefore, Tammuz was worshiped as God incarnate, that implied also that he was an incarnation of the sun."--Alexander Hislop, The Two Babylons, Loizeaux Brothers, page 96.THE PAGAN CHRISTMAS TREE...

"The Christmas tree, now so common among us, was equally common in Pagan Rome and Pagan Egypt. In Egypt it was the palm tree; in Rome it was the fir; the palm-tree denoting the Pagan Messiah, as Baal-Tamar, the fir referring to him as Baal-Berith. The mother of Adonis, the Sun-God and great mediatorial divinity, was mystically said to have been changed into a tree, and when in that state to have brought forth her divine son. If the mother was a tree, the son must have been recognized as ‘Man the Branch.’ And this entirely accounts for putting the Yule Log into the fire on Christmas Eve and the appearance of the Christmas tree the next morning. As Zero-Ashta, ‘The seed of the woman,’ ...he has to enter the fire on ‘Mother night,’ that he may be born the next day out of it, as the ‘Branch of God,’ or the Tree that brings divine gifts to men." -The Two Babylons, p. 97.

On that tiara you can also see 6 serpents upon it. All the Popes have word the tiara as a symbol of their authority as "gods of the earth, heaven, and hell" Hence, the "three rings" upon it. The Vatican has a solid gold tiara on display in the Vatican treasury. This is the very crown the Pope will hand to Antichrist when he arrives to impersonate Jesus Christ in the days ahead.
52. Quetzalcoatl, the lord of life and death in the Aztec and Toltec cultures of 1000 AD had an open chest with an exposed heart displayed.

Notice that these "sacred hearts" also have the symbols of the sun god Mithra glowing rather boldly behind them.
53. Assyrians carvings show eagles as genies hovering over the dead. Their "book of the dead" depicts just such a picture on its cover.	Eagles are used as symbols all over the Roman Catholic church. See Rev 18:2 speaks of the Vatican as the "hold of ever foul spirit, and a cage of ever unclean and hateful bird."

"I don’t believe there is a God" Do you here that alot ?

I don’t believe there is a God!

If that’s your position then let me start off by asking you some Questions.

What do you believe in?

I neither believe in a Creator nor in the Evolution logic.

Believe it or not some people take this position too

Ok let’s get started.

Questions:

1. Do you live some where? Yes?.. I exist! Things exist
2. Who is in charge?
3. Parents, governments, kings?
4. If Parents or Governments are in charge then there must be rules.
5. Are there rules? No rules no one is in charge. Rules exist someone’s in charge
6. So what are the rules? Parents are older, we make the gold we make the rules! sounds familiar.? same apply for the Government J
7. Why are there rules anyway?
8. To keep order? To show who is the boss? Both?
9. Sticks with me now don’t get lost here.
10. If there is a boss and if management must be in place because order is needed there must be a set goal and agenda. The big scientific term for this concept is called PURPOSE.
11. Purpose is driven by intelligence yes or no. If you say no then see 12
12. what’s the toothbrush for ,what’s the car engine for what’s the wheels for, what’s the eye for what’s the heart for what’s the reproductive organs for .ARE U GETTING THE PICTURE YET.

Now if you want to distant yourself from the logic we are taking here if you don’t want to believe this then ask you’re self what I am going to do after reading this lets see

1. Bake a cake.
2. Fix my car
3. Study for exams
4. Teach a class
5. Maybe play some game

We could play this game all day but all the above mention A to E use all the rules mentioned 1-10 some where in the process.

Sorry there is no escape lets precede

11. If there is purpose then it means some one created or set in motion or made the thing. Be it cake, car, exams, lessons, or game.

Now that you have gotten this concept etch in your mind think about the universe

1. Is it there for us to see? Yes/no

2. Are there rules in the universe yes/ no why hasn’t the Sun come closer to earth? Why hasn’t the moon crash into the earth.. Rules or sorry Laws of physics right?

Well we establish in that rules are links to management, management to purpose ,purpose to intelligent designer.

SO WHAT DID U SAY IN THE BEGINNING YOU DIDN’T BELIEVE IN WHO?

Think again when … what.. When what.. Well when you do everything from the time you wake till the time you go to bed. i forgot Ooopps even in sleep there is a purpose .. Sorry I mist that.

NO escape there must be an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER.

Have you ever seen a hurricane run trough a scrap yard and create Bowing 747?

If you don’t believe in God then that’s what your logic is like.

Seek him today.

Peace and love

This a Continuation of the first Blog The Truth ..

1.what does the world think about the bible
2. What does the "Mother of all Christian Churches "think about the Bible.

This is what the Roman church lead by the POPE says:

"Can you learn to save your soul just by reading the Bible? No...because the Bible does not have everything God taught." A Catechism for Adults, Q. 1, p. 52."Now the Scriptures alone do not contain all the truths which a Christian is bound to believe, nor do they explicitly enjoin all the duties which he is obliged to practice." The Faith of Our Fathers, p. 72.

The Bible does not contain all the teaching of the Christian religion, nor does it formulate all the duties of its members." The Faith of Millions, pp. 153-154.

This is what the word of God The bible says:
2 Timothy 3:15 - "For from thy infancy thou hast known the Sacred Writings, which are able to instruct thee unto salvation by the faith which is in Christ Jesus."2 Tim. 3:16-17 as a standard of fact. It says, "All Scripture is inspired by God and useful for teaching, for reproving, for correcting, for instruction in justice, that the man of God may be perfect, equipped for every good work."

So why is it the Vatican is declaring the exact opposite? It appears rather plain that the Scriptures are quite able to do that which the Vatican says it cannot. Fact is folks, if you investigate the methods of Satan you will see he ALWAYS twists that which the Lord says. In the Garden of Eden he twisted the Lord's Words to make it appear He lied regarding the end result of sin. He also did the same thing in the desert when he tried to tempt our dear Lord. Evidently the Scriptures do just fine in leading people to the salvation according to Timothy. In fact, that verse openly points to the Vatican and shouts in thunderous tones, YOU ARE A LIAR! It can’t be said any plainer then that.

the Vatican Says :...A Competent religious guide must be clear and intelligible to all.so that everyone may fully understand the true meaning of the instructions it contains. Is the bible a book intelligible to all ?Far from It it is full of obscurities and difficulties not for illiterate but even the learned." Faith of our fathers. p.70

The bible says:
2Peter 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any private interpretation.
So who is the bible for The Hierarchic of the church to dictate to the those in the pews. No the bible was written for all mankind.

According to Rome itself, the Bible is NOT a loved, or trusted book! They openly and repeatedly declare that this is a book that is NOT required reading for the Christian. According to Rome, it is not to be embraced as a "safe method to find out what the Savior taught." Yet John 20:31 so eloquently professes "These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name." John is saying that people can actually learn about Jesus from the Bible, and the Bible ONLY. Praise the Lord John wasn’t a Catholic! Had he been one, we would never have heard such words, for he would have been taught by his church leaders not to bother in the first place. Dare I remind you of what Martin Luther went through for being arrogant enough to want to actually read a Bible let alone translate one?here what The Catholic church says : "The Doctrines of the Cartholic church are entirely independant of Holy scriptures". Familiar Explanations of Catholic Doctrine,p 151

There arguments
They said the Bible doesn’t record all necessary things which Jesus did.
Acts 1:1-2 says, "The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:"

They said Scripture doesn’t contain the certainty of Christ's actions and teachings.
Luke 1:3-4 says, "It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus, That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed." They say Scriptures cannot teach us to believe in the name of Jesus.
John 20:30-31 says, "And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name."

They say Scriptures cannot give instructions to salvation.
2 Timothy 3:15 says, "And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus."

They say the commands of the Lord are not found in His Word.
1 Corinthians 14:37 says, "If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord."
They say proper conduct is nowhere emphasized within the Word of God.
1 Timothy 3:14-15 says, "These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly: But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth."

They say every good work is not found in His Word.
2 Timothy 3:15-16 says, "And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"

They say the Word cannot tell us how to be protected against sin.
1 John 2:1 says, "My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:"And, most important, they say Word is not the standard of judgment.

Revelation 20:12, "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works."The bible Says :
Mark 7:7, "Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." Isaiah 8:20, "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.take note:Ever notice this? The Catholic Church will use 1 Timothy 3:15 where it says, "...the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth."

They actually go to the Bible for their method of madness. They use the very same Bible they proclaim is useless to say we must adhere to them as the sole authority in religious matters. However, if you proclaim Sola Scriptura unto them, they shout THE BIBLE IS A DEAD AND SPEECHLESS BOOK! Talk about CoNfUsIoN! In essence ... they are saying... we will use the Bible when it is CONVENIENT for us to do so. But when it exposes us as sinners, we will put it aside! HYPOCRITES

Only a hypocrite would use a book they already declared useless as the main method of evidence for their stand!
The tuth is the truth and his word is Truth

The CHART OF THE WEEK, is over a hundred years old. It is extremely valuable and almost impossible to find today. Dr. William Meade Jones lived over a hundred years ago, and was a well-known London, England, research expert. He discovered in his studies that the Seventh-day Sabbath was the only weekly Sabbath ever commanded by God in the Bible. Jones decided that, since Scripture clearly shows that the Bible Sabbath was first given to mankind at end of Creation Week, --If Genesis 2:1-3 is really true, then two important facts would have had to be known throughout the ancient world: First, a fixing of the seven-day weekly cycle on a world-wide basis, and second, an ancient world-wide knowledge of the Seventh-day Sabbath. Jones was convinced of this for several reasons: 1. Adam and Noah were both earnest worshipers of God and would therefore have been faithful Sabbath keepers. 2. They would have taught their descendents about the Bible Sabbath, who would be aware of its original sacredness. 3. The truth that God is to be worshiped on the seventh of each seven-day week, requires a seven-day week, even though they may have later turned to idols and left the worship of the True God. 4. Therefore, as the descendants of Adam and Noah spread out all over the world, they would have carried with them these two important facts: Each week has seven days, and the seventh day of the week is the holy Sabbath given by God to mankind. Even though many of Adam's and Noah's descendants would become scoffers, Jones reasoned, all of them would still carry with them the twin truths of the six-day Creation Week, of Genesis 1 (by their keeping of the seven-day weekly cycle, and the Seventh-day Sabbath by naming the seventh day of the week in their language as the day of Sabbath rest). William Mead Jones decided that if Genesis 1 and 2 were really true, and that if God really created the world in six days and then rested on the Seventh day, then a majority of the languages of the world would prove the fact! And this, in turn, would be a powerful proof, not only that the Seventh day (and not the first) was the true Sabbath of God, but also a dramatic proof that Genesis 1 and 2 are genuine, and that God is our Creator! Thinking about both of these facts is stunning in the light of the abundance of corroborating evidence given on this amazing chart that proves them to be true!

Was the law observance abolish by Christ Col 2:14-17 Let no man Judge you in meet and drink or in respect of Holy days ,Sabbath days etc Lev 23:24-32 what were they talking about lets see Leviticus 23:24-27,32 what law was being discussed ? These passage show that certain Sabbath days were to be celebrated 1st day of the 7th month was a Sabbath day a day of atonement, holy convocations, afflicting of souls for repentance of sins (whole of Israel must take part in cleansing of sins)N:B it was not "THE SABBATH DAY" that commemorate The GOD of Creation. this leads to the(ceremonial law vs. moral law 10 commandments)-Moses law vs. Gods law Distinguishing between Moses law "Ceremonial " and God's Ten commandments THE TWO SETS OF LAWS AER NOT THE SAME ONE WAS TEMPORARY ONE WAS PERMANENT How many times law was written Deuteronomy 10:1 God writes 10 commandments TWICE cuz Moses broke the tablets 1st time Leviticus 23: ceremonial laws given to Mose by God was written once Media Use to record writing Deuteronomy 10:3 God writes on tables "tables of stone" in verse 3 a symbol permanence Deuteronomy 31:22 Ceremonial law given to Moses verbally was written in a book (scroll) written by Moses own hands (handwriting) What was use to write the laws Exodus 31:18 God Gave unto moses tablets of stone written by His own fingers(finger writing) not the same as handwriting. Deuteronomy 31:22 Ceremonial law given to Moses verbally was writen in a book (scroll) written by Moses own hands(handwriting) Where were the two sets of laws placed Deuteronomy 10:4 Gods Ten commandments the law was place IN THE ARK Deuteronomy 31:26 ceremonial law was place where? IN THE SIDE OF THE ARK to be a witness a AGAINTS THEE What law was against us as a witness Deuteronomy 31:26 AGAIN TS THEE. What law was against them..The answers is in the text that kick start this discussion in the first place COLLOSIANS 2:14.says: Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; The Ten commandments law was never against us the ceremonial law was against us that’s why Colossians 2:14 speaks of Christ coming nailed those laws to the cross; removing them . IT IS CLEAR THAT THE CEREMONIAL LAW IS NOT THE TEN COMMANDMENTS SO DOES THE TEN COMMANDMENTS STILL STAND? YOU ANSWER THAT ALL 10 OF THEM? YOU ANSWER THAT. THE SABBATH TOO? YOU ANSWER THAT. No more bullocks ,No more lamb no more sacrifices brought on an alter for Jesus is the lamb.

He says: 1 John 2:3-6. 3And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 6He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. Sabbath in future ? in heaven : Isaiah 66:22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. 24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
