Sabbath begins on Friday evening until Saturday evening. \n\nThe introduction of Sunday into the mindset of the masses was to appease the pagans of Sol Invictus who worshipped the Sun God on Sunday.\n\nSabbath is still Sabbath, regardless.

Poeple can pull numbers from both sides to back up their beliefs or lack of belief. I can personally attest to the Power of those scriptures. God has left me with no other logical choice but to know that He is The I AM and Jesus is His Son and our Saviour. Bottom line....Faith. God bless.

* * * * * 1 Timothy 2:3,4 says "This is fine and acceptable in the sight of our Savior, God,  whose will is that all sorts of men should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth."\n\nAt the present time, this accurate knowledge is abundantly available in God's word, the Bible, and many can find it, which will "save" them if they read and apply it.\n\nHowever, there have been many ones throughout mankind's history who have never had that opportunity for this, as they may have died young, were born into an atheistic society, or simply never had the chance to read or hear Bible truth.  These ones will be resurrected, or "saved" back to the new earth, and then will be able to be taught this accurate knowledge.

now you should beleive more than ever. If you look at the book of Revalations, the reason you are so discouraged is becuase things in the book are coming to pass.

Congrats! I think you may be close to realizing one of the ~mysteries~ hidden from those who try to read Scripture w/o faith. Bless you!

True, and it is what I've been saying all along. When I was a Christian, I still didn't believe in the letters of Paul. Was it not the prophets of the ancient times that brought laws and the word of G-d through revelation (ie. a burning bush, the direct voice of G-d)? Then years later, the "new" testament is revealed through letters and secondary sources written by people who weren't even there.  Another great point, thanks for the question.

The main focus will be PC.  God forbid someone should write what they believe is the truth if it by any chance may be offending to those who don't believe in the Bible!

I walk in the faith that the Bible is a load of codswallup. Especially concerning the parlor tricks of the New Testiment. 1Peter 2-24 included.\n\n-SD-

You tell them bout JESUS by leaving a BIBLE(which contains the WORD of GOD) laying around somewhere!!!! It worked for GOD!!!

Yes, you are right! continue to study and learn about the bible. It is important that you draw your own conclusions. Remember Jesus said the road to life would be small and cramped, that is don't be surprised that the majority will not accept it, in spite of blatant evidence. You seem to be on the right track, keep your studies up.

"...can it be backed up with scripture?"\n\nCertainly not; it's not Scriptural.  It's a pseudo-religious phrasing of an old conservative attitude.

sup people, some of u are sayin alot of good stuff and sayin stuff from the bible which is true, but u all making one big error, u takin scriptures and sayin them without realising that the scripture u sayin is also linked to other scriptures, in other words, u cant jus take a scripture and say thats the end of that, i see someone put in about romans 10-9 where it speaks about if u truly believe that Jesus died for u and confess that to him with ur mouth, then u are saved, but that really aint it, u cant jus take that alone without looking at other scriptures that are linked with it, throughout the gospels i cant even tell u how many times is clearly states that for a person 2 be saved, u have to repent of your sins and tell Jesus that u truly do believe he died for u, u have to be baptised in the name of Jesus,(not the father the son and the holy ghost), and u have to receive the holy ghost through evidence of speaking in tongues, and thats the basic start of ur new life, after that, uv got wat u need to go heaven, but what u do then on after will determine if u get there, cant take God for granted he aint no joker, hes the king, i hope for u people that dont no, u can accept this into your heart, give jesus a chance, if u in a relationship with someone, u had to give that person a chance to see if it would work out, aint no difference with Jesus, accept he will always work out, its all about choice, and to christians who said stuff on here, stop reading ya bible and start studying it, theres a huge difference, cant beilive that some of u seriously think that if u tell jesus u beilive he died for u then u will be saved, no one gets of that easy. God bless.

Youre right, you cant prove it. But thats fine for most people, cause if you keep telling yourself thats something exist, its gonna exist. So you dont need a proof. If you keep telling yourself that theres God, God will exist. If you dont, then he wont. It simple. And about the Bible, I could write a book right now about a new God, bury it in the earth and then about 1000 years later someone's gonna find it, and there will be a new religion, and everybody will believe in my God. You know what im saying? So you cant prove anything, its just whether believe in it or not. If you do you'll see it.

I say any verse in the bible is the word of God and is the truth. Jesus is the truth so the word is the truth.

Its a lot like anything else. You either have faith in it or you don't.  They did prove its authenticity.  They know it was around at 180Ce.  And they do have a point (those that have answered) that they cannot prove that what the contents say is fact. (meaning this is actually what was said and all that) However if you want to take that route we can say the same for the other Gospels. Those in the bible and those not.  The Gospels in the bible are just as old.  We were not there.  We take what the scriptures say on faith. (for those who believe) So this book is no different.)  I personally feel that this Gospel has a lot to offer in our understanding of Jesus and his Disciples.  Just as the Nag Hammadi Library and the Dead Sea Scrolls.  They give us more insight. More understanding.  And, I feel, They give us something to weigh against the Gospels and other books in the New Testiment.
