Pioneer wrote ---- any part of a day represents a day in Jewish
reckoning, in other words inclusive reckoning .--------
I go along with that but I don’t believe in a full 72 hours.
Now you believe the 2 Sabbaths fell together, the lamb was to be killed on the first day of unleavened bread –Mark 14:12—Ex 12:6:18 that day and Passover were the same 24hrs passover was at midnight in Ex 12: 29,and began when the sun set on the 14th and the lamb was eaten that SAME night – Ex 12:8—and the feast of unleavened bread started at daylight and so did the Exodus.
Now you have to count your 3 days from the beginning of passover which you claim started on Friday night at sunset that when the 2 Sabbaths began that your starting point. Inclusive reckoning so Sabbath is day one, Sunday doesn’t look good for day 3.
Friday believers forget a day has 2 halves Evening and Morning or (day)–Gen 1:5—Jesus said there was only 12 Hours in a day –John 11:9,-- and when He nominates 3 days or after 3 days or in 3 days He is nominating all of 1 day and at least part of the first and last day not like all Friday Crucifixionists
1 hour on Friday ----------1 day
All Sabbath night----------1 night
All Sabbath day----------2nd day
Only the dark half of Sunday-----2nd night
But you have to cut that in half you have not got a text for a Friday internment so you lose Friday Matthew 27:51, Mark 15:42, Luke 23:53,54, John 19:31, are all after sunset and Christ would still have to be on the cross when the 15th of Nisan began as the last rays of the sun set on Friday that’s when the blueprint in Ex 12 began and it all happened in the same 24hr period.
Now you are down to one night and one day because those 24 bibles on Mat 28;1 SAY THE 2 Marys arrived at Sunset at the tomb and it was empty.
I hope you reply if you disagree that biblical answers not with what you may have believed but the word of God. The bible has to interpret itself not from any other sauce

The reason the large majority of us SDAs believe it was Friday is because of Roman Catholic Tradition; tradition which goes all the way back to the Babylonian Mysteries. This idea of Jesus dying on Friday has its ROOTS in the luciferian feasts of Easter &Christmas, particularly the concept of 'Good Friday'.
"About 200 B.C. mystery cults began to appear in Rome just as they had earlier in Greece. Most notable was the Cybele cult centered on Vatican hill... Associated with the Cybele cult was that of her lover, Attis (the older Tammuz, Osiris, Dionysus, or Orpheus under a new name). He was a god of ever-reviving vegetation. Born of a virgin, he died and was reborn annually. The festival began as a day of blood on Black Friday and culminated after three days in a day of rejoicing over the resurrection." Gerald L. Berry, "Religions of the World," Barns & Noble,(1956).
As we can see Good Friday(Black Friday as it was originally called) has no connection whatsoever to Jesus Christ. It is Satanic. When the Catholic Church brought the worship of Sunday, Christmas, and Easter into 'Christianity' in the 4th Century AD, Black Friday simply became Good Friday and it was said this was the day on which Christ died.
You are correct in stating that Jesus was crucified on the 4th day(Wednesday) rather than on the 5th(Friday).
First we are told in John 19:31 "for that sabbath day was an high day". The Sabbath for which the Jews were preparing was a High Sabbath, the Sabbath of Passover, and not a regular 7th day Sabbath.
Furthermore, speaking to the Pharisees, Jesus stated, "there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: for as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." Matthew 12:39,40. No how much man may attempt to misconstrue this statement by Christ, three days and three days means three full days and three full nights just as in Genesis an evening and morning meant a full evening and a full morning.
To top this off, Jesus being crucified on Wednesday has been ASTRONOMICALLY confirmed. [cut]
I pray that whoever reads this may not become bitter as the manner of some is but may depart from Satanic traditions and accept plain
Biblical truth of 'It is written'.
Sam:
Jesus said Three days AND Three nights. He never said two days and one night. The Wednesday truth only further DISPROVES the Catholic Sunday to celebrate the resurrection. The resurrection was late Sat PM and NOT on the first day. Early Sunday morning, Jesus was ALREADY resurrected.
Now Bird-person: do you mean the Holy Spirit speaks through Ellen White to explain difficult Bible verses like John 10:22,23 or does He speak to you in person? Could I give you a few verses to ask the Holy Spirit to explain to you? And then you tell us what He said?
Bird:
In Heb a part of a day is counted as a whole
Give you something to study and look up.
Thurs. nite [1] Fri. nite [2] Sat. nite [3]
Fri [1] Sat.[2] Sun [3]

Let's for a minute ASSUME that Jesus was crucified on Friday and see how this line of reasoning plays out.
Where are you getting thursday night from? Matthew 27:46,50 state,
"And about the NINTH HOUR Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost."
In our reckoning of time the 'ninth hour' would be equivalent to 3:00 PM. Sunset usually takes place around 6:00 PM in Israel. Assuming that Joseph of Arimathaea and the Jews managed to lay Jesus in the tomb before sundown on Friday, let's count out the 3 days and 3 nights, using the principle that any part of a day counts as a whole day:
1st day - Friday Day
1st night - Friday Night(Beginning of Sabbath)
2nd day - Sabbath Day
2nd night - Saturday Night(Beginning of the first day of the week)
3rd day -?
3rd night -?
We seem to have run out of days and nights.
John 20:1 further assures us that Jesus had already risen from the dead while it was still dark on Sunday, "The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre." Hence, you cannot use the day-part of Sunday to add to the formula.
Yours and Terri's line of reasoning only further proves that according to His own words in Matthew 12:39,40 Jesus could NOT have been crucified and died on Friday.
As I pointed out earlier, the Bible clearly specifies in John 19:31 that the day after Passover was to be a High Sabbath, "for that sabbath day was an high day". A High Sabbath was a special day for the Jews, which took place during one of the first six days of the week and was associated with one of the Jewish Feast Days. The Lord commanded the Israelites to treat that day as you would the 7th-day Sabbath, hence the term 'High Sabbath'.
It is clear from the Word, from astronomy, and from your own reasoning that Jesus did NOT die on Friday. Why is it so hard for the professed followers of Christ to accept correction and admit they were in error? This is and will be the bane of most Christians, and particularly, most SDAs.
Bird:
where was Christ Thur. nite?
In the Garden Christ was in the realm of Satan
Satan's realm is the grave or hell.
trial run by Satan was thur. nite
nailed to Cross 9AM time of the Morning Sacrifice
Died 3PM the time of the evening Sacrifice [O.T.]
Reason is He was the Lamb, and it had to be at those times to fulfill all the things pertaining to Him
Most people want to leave out the Garden and Trial because it does not fit their thinking.
Thur. nite [1] Fri.nite [2] Sat.nite [3]
Fri.day [1] Satday [2] Sun day [3]
you come up with 3 days 3 nites. and that matches all the texts pertain to Christ and His Crucificion and Ressurection
Voice:
I really hope you were joking in posting this.
"But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: in whom the god of THIS WORLD hath blinded the minds of them which believe not." 2 Corinthians 4:3,4
Trial run? You are making up doctrines in an attempt to defend an unBiblical belief. Put self aside friend, and accept a plain 'Thus Saith The LORD'.
Robert:
It is part of three different days.
Remember the evening and the morning are the ONE DAY.
So it is only saying THREE DIFFERENT DAYS.
Friday,Saturaday & Sunday.
Bird:
No I believe you do not understand.
Sundown thur [thur. nite ] is the first nite for it is Friday.
that is how the Sabbath is. Sundown Fri. nite is Saturday
God said and the evening and the morning were the day.
with those Words thur. nite is part of Fri.
I quoted Scripture on the days, but you dont believe.
Check Gen 1 out and see how God set it up, but maybe God was wrong in doing it that way.
GE:
SINCE WHEN do SDAs reason like you here do, Bird?
SDAs have never before done what you are doing here with <<Thur. nite [1]>> and <<In the Garden>>.
This is a newbie!
And I know where it comes from. The SDAs stole it from the Thursday Crucifixion. They PLAGIARIZE FRAUDULENTLY SUITING THEIR OWN LIE.
