Why are you beating yourself up? There are three feast days involved with death, burial, and resurrection. They are: 1 Passover - April 14 - Pictures the death of Christ - Friday - Day 1 2 Unleavened Bread - April 15 - Pictures the burial where there was no corruption of his body - Saturday -...

P It was intentional but not unreasonable. Here is my understanding of what he said. "FYI, the Sabbath ended Saturday at sundown. And Saturday at sundown is the beginning of the 1st day of the week." I am not sure anyone would disagree with that statement. However, if one is teaching Jesus...

You need to compare the prophetic theme of "the day of the LORD" from the scriptures and if you have eyes to then see some glorious truths will come to light for you and you will be able to see God's viewpoint much more clearly. The whole day of the LORD is symbolic of the sabbath of the Lord...

Anthony, sometimes disagreements on a point can be attributed to semantics, how we express ourselves. We are nearly in full agreement and I am not expressing a hostile intent. Jesus Christ in his becoming one of us is likewise as true as your point that he is God's son. He is truly man in every...

That sin came into the world by Adam is definitely my position as well. All have sinned is likewise true. Adam died spiritually because of the one sin, and that is the point. All who are born of Adam are in his bi-partite image and nature at birth. That is what is meant that death passed upon...

I heartily agree with your reasoning and would only take issue with this one point and say that sin did not pass upon all men through Adam but death passed upon all men. All men born of Adam are spiritually dead by virtue of being born of him and in his image but it is not a sin to be born...

I think the point of this epistle to the Ephesians is being ignored. The theme is "the mystery of Christ." It describes the purpose of God for this age from eternity but this part of his plan was not revealed in the OT scriptures. It, the purpose, was hidden in God before the creation of the...

ky. thank you for your interest in my comments but I am not sure if you do not believe my lesson or you do not understand it. When God began speaking to the Jews in parables in Matthew 13 it was after Jesus in chapter 12 had cursed this generation of Israel declaring that he will not save them...

If Jesus Christ rose from the dead on the first day of the week like the scripture says then he laid in the tomb all the 24 hours of the sabbath day, which is the seventh and last day of the week. He gives us the times. He dismissed his spirit at three o'clock in the afternoon on crucifixion day...

The 4 gospels have a total of 89 chapter, Matthew 28 Mark 16 Luke 24 John 21 Total 89 Jesus came to Jerusalem in these chapters to be crucified. Matthew 21 = 8 Chapters Mark 11 = 6 Chapters Luke 19 = 6 Chapters John 12 = 9 Chapters Total...

@Mike B. you might want to examine how well these systematic books have produced what God desires. That command is given in 1 Corinthians 1:10 in the 4th epistle that Paul wrote to the churches. Here it is. 1Co 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye...

When did the church begin? That seems to be the question of the op. What role did Jesus have in the beginning of the church? The better question may be "what is the church?" I think it would be a problem to get a consensus on the definition of the church among the Baptists on this website. There...

Yes, I agree and it is wrong to do it and I apologize for it. I have tried to keep this from sounding argumentative and have approached the question of when the church of Jesus Christ began from my understanding of the scriptures. I have refrained from addressing your points to a large extent...

The stone was tested and tried during the time of Jesus on earth. That is what the scriptures teach, The church is called a building, a temple for the Holy Ghost and is said to be laid upon the Jewish foundationwith a Jewish beginning. It had to be laid upon a stone. Isaiah 28:14 Wherefore...

In construction, being the cornerstone means being the very first, strongest, and most vital stone placed at the junction of two walls. It serves as the exact reference point for the entire layout, ensuring the building is square, level, and structurally aligned. Physical and Structural Role...

Ps 118:22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. He has always been the stone but he has not always been the stone of the corner until the beginning of the building. The wise man built his house upon a Rock. Lu 6:48 He is like a man which built an house...

One church body: 1 Cor 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. Note: We are told Christ is a body fashioned with many members. 13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be...

Time lines in the scriptures are very important. For instance the apostles, a position that is first associated with the earthly kingdom of Israel, along with the 70 prophets have a kingdom context in their being chosen. They were appointed to, and are going to, sit on twelve thrones judging the...

I will give you more passages that tells us the church began after the resurrection of Jesus Christ but it will not change your mind and you will not believe it. Your mind is made up and I can see that. Acts 11:1 And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also...

Baptist Debate Forums (Baptist Only) Baptists settled the baptism question long ago and this subject may be the only biblical subject that is not open for debate among us. Philip had just been to Samaria preaching Jesus Christ and him crucified as the way of salvation. They believed the...
