All Doves:
It is interesting how specific individuals at the "Pre-Wrath-Rapture-Babble" site are so quick to quote me, and "out of context" at that. It is a big mistake to mis-quote me or to take my remarks out of context because I will hone in on them like a heat-seeking missile.
While I stated a historical fact that Constantine is the one to blame for changing the Sabbath to "Sun"-day, do not assume that my remarks are, in any way, fashion, or form, a blanket endorsement of Sabbath worship, which is associated with the SDA cult, and other Sabbath observing churches, like Jehovah Witnesses, and those with the British-Israelism beliefs, which is a huge hoax as I have previously noted, and has been proven to be a total fraud. America and Great Britain are not descendants of the so-called "Lost Tribes" of Israel. Sabbath observance is not a badge of somehow being super-spiritual. This bogus argument has been around a lot longer than any of us breathing oxygen. The fact is abundantly clear from the 'Genome Project', that there is no genetic ties of proof that any of the so-called "Lost Tribes" of the Northern Kingdom that split off from the Southern Kingdom of Judah became England and America. It simply isn't so. Q.E.D.
Regarding the Sabbath, it is the Jewish day of Worship, not the Christian believer. I covered this point quite thoroughly in my post "SDA Aberrations -4", dated June 22, 2014. Anyone can read what I said about the Sabbath. The Sabbath was made for man, according to the Gospel of Mark. "And He said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath." -(Mark 2:27). What greater voice of authority can there be than the exalted words of Christ Jesus, Himself. No debate as I understand the Biblical text.
For those that want to continue to impose Sabbath worship on Christian believers is simply to put us back under the Law, and thus nullifying our redemption position "in Christ."
I recommend anyone still confused by another site's remarks, that took my words out of context of that post, concerning my remarks about Constantine, is merely muddying the waters of debate. That's infantile, and childish but more so, it is dishonest to readers sincerely interested in Truth.
Go back and read:
++ "SDA Aberrations -4" (dated Five Dove letters of June 22, 2014)
++ "Reply: Barry Amundsen: Ref. British-Israelism" (dated FD letters of July 27, 2014)
++ "British-Israelism / Anglo-Israelism is a Hoax" (dated FD letters of July 27, 2014)
++ "Roots of British-Israelism link to Prince Charles & British Royals" (dated FD letters of July 27, 2014)
For some reason, this person, that wants to quote my remarks to support his view of Sabbath observance is missing the larger issue of our relationship with the Creator. Israel and the Church are two entirely different entities, and like oil and water cannot be commingled together, and to do so is to confuse the Bible, It's doctrines, and message of Redemption.
While I did not mention in my post "SDA Aberrations -4" that Jesus healed on the Sabbath, I believe the reader will benefit by learning and appreciate knowing that He [Jesus Christ] did not let a challenge go by with the Pharisees of His day. He performed miracles on the Sabbath, not just one, but "seven" recorded as listed below:
1. Jesus drove out an evil demonic spirit -- recorded in Mark 1:21-28 and Luke 4:31-37.
2. Jesus healed Peter's mother-in-law -- recorded in Matthew 8:14-15, Mark 1:29-31, and Luke 4:38-39.
3. Jesus healed a lame man -- recorded in John 5:1-18.
4. Jesus healed a man with a shriveled hand -- recorded in Mark 3:1-6, and Luke 6:6-11.
5. Jesus healed a cripple woman -- recorded in Luke 13:10-17.
6. Jesus healed a man with dropsy -- recorded in Luke 14:1-6.
7. Jesus healed a man born blind -- recorded in John 9:1-34.
What greater evidence could one offer than that Jesus meant what He said?
There is no need to elaborate further on the issue of British-Israelism other than to say - it is all a hoax, a gigantic lie of global proportions from the pages of Lucifer's playbook to give the world a human messiah. Go back and read my post, the last one on the list noted above. British-Israelism was nothing more than a ruse to support the idea of the "Divine Right of Kings", and the Merovingian's blood lines. It is all bovine excrement and the fools that believe in it deserve to get their Masonic Antichrist (Prince William) being groomed to take the position as King in the very near future. The Queen Mum has made it perfectly clear, to her son Prince Charles that he is not going to be the King, but rather his son, is to be the King to replace her. His son [Prince William] got his first global gig event at the 100th anniversary as keynote speaker in the remembrance of WW1, on August 4th 2014, observed at Liege, Belgium. You did not see President Obama at this gathering of "royals" of Europe. In that post I identified books that validate my supposition that Prince William will be the Masonic Antichrist.
So long as people continue to try to commingle 'Israel' with the 'Church', there will be endless babble and confusion. Israel is named specifically '2,566' times in the Bible, while the Church is only found '77' times beginning in Matthew 16. You can twist and torture Scripture all you want, but nothing can change the facts or the truth of what I am stating as truth.
Be blessed this week,
Pastor Bob
