Actually, there is one single verbatim scripture quote in the entire post. All he does is say that such-is-such is what some verse really meant. For instance, he claims that Jesus died on a Wednesday, and provides three apparent scripture references, based on an insistence that Passover was on a Thursday, not on a Friday.

The simple explanation: Jesus did, in fact, celebrate Passover earlier than the Pharisees did, as there WAS a disagreement as to how to count the days.

The Pharisees' passover began on Friday evening. This was the passover that they were trying to get Jesus dead by. Jesus, following the Essenses (as references to the way he celebrated it make clear), celebrated the passover, beginning on a Thursday evening; and died on the day of that passover (Friday day), and not on the day of preparation for that passover, (Wednesday day).

No need to join any cults that declare 99.999999% of all Christians throughout history to be idolators.

Y'shua said :

Matthew 7:12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do
to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

Matthew 7:13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and
broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.

Matthew 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life,
and only a few find it.
