Heb. 7:12 - when there is a change in the priesthood, there is a change in the law as well. Because we have a new Priest and a new sacrifice, we also have a new day of worship, which is Sunday.

12 For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made in the law also.

How do you get there from here? Could it possibly be the change in the law is the omission of animal sacrifice? How do you get Sunday out of this?

Rev 1:10 - John specifically points out that he witnesses the heavenly Eucharistic liturgy on Sunday, the Lord's day, the new day of rest in Christ.

Revelation of John 1 10 I came to be in the Spirit in the Lord's day and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

For you yourselves know accurately that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in the night. (I Thessalonians 5:2)

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a rushing noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat. And the earth and the works in it will be burned up. (II Peter 3:10)

Could it be that John had been brought forward in time in order to prophesy of the events to come? Nah, too easy. Couldn't be.

Matt. 16:19; 18:18 - whatever the Church binds on earth is bound in heaven. Since the resurrection, Mass has been principally celebrated on Sunday.

Therefore whoever shall break one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever shall do and teach them , the same shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven. (Matthew 5:19)

Matthew 7:20 Therefore by their fruits you shall know them.
21 Not everyone who says to Me, Lord! Lord! shall enter the kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord! Lord! Did we not prophesy in Your name, and through Your name throw out demons, and through Your name do many wonderful works?
23 And then I will say to them I never knew you! Depart from Me, those working lawlessness!

**Well, look at some of the "Catholic Caucus: Daily Mass Readings" stuff. **

Thank you!

With the exception of on post in between, you have posted from #32 to #43.

Has the Catholic and Orthodox causcus label been removed or am I reading the caption wrong?

If by chance it hasn't been removed, these are a lot of posts contesting a caucus thread.

Is this a form of protest?

Don't you think the Daily and Sunday Mass Readings along with the Devotional threads are the exception on FR.

Most of the threads are meant for discussion and comment. Those not quite so much.

The thread remains in a caucus until I receive a choice from the article poster - whether to include the SDA in the caucus or open it. Your posts have been removed until a decision is made.

I wonder how long a "Catholic Church is a whore" (SDA Caucus) would remain?

You got that right. Letting the Catholics bash another denomination on a protected thread with outright lies is absolutely unacceptable.

I didn't start this thread.

I didn't call it a caucus.

I also have never, ever made a practice of bad-mouthing any other religion on this forum.

But I have read some of the most awful things written on these forums about the Catholic Church, about people who practice the Catholic faith, and about the core of our Faith, the Eucharist. And while all that "Catholic-bashing" was going on, it was not pulled or corrected because it was on "unprotected" threads.

So--you might say we just had to "shutupandtakeit". The only recourse we had was to address any ad hominem. Often the range of contempt and ridicule was so pronounced that it was, essentially, like an ad hominem to us.

If you are unhappy with this thread, it may not be the best way to deal with it by "spamming" it.

I'll let the Moderator take care of it, but don't put the blame on me.

Until/unless the caucus label has been lifted, stay off this thread.

Since the Seventh Day Adventists are discussed here, either the caucus needs to be expanded to include SDA - or the caucus label removed. Your choice.

Open it up for all to discuss and have the SDA post their responses to Salvation who has taken a particular interest in this topic.

Kerryusa has gone into this on another thread.

Even there I asked him to identify the religion/denomination at which he attended services -- whether Saturday or Sunday.

In the light of truth (on the Sunday where the reading is that of Woman Caught in Adultery) Christ asked the people there that if they were without sin to throw the first stone.

So I am asking (in no way putting myself in Christ's place) Mr Kerryusa, what church do you attend?

Only after you have answered this querry, can I/we go about answering your other posts.

In other words, lay it all out here, brother!

(Oops, guess I should not speak for the other posters, but I think we need to know before answering your posts.)

Pardon me for answering your question for him. As one who has gone around with kerryusa04 and douglasKC on this topic, I think you will find their denominational interest is the Worldwide Church of God (Herbert W. Armstrong). Experience tells me that reason is completely lost on them.

You might have me confused with someone else. I don't think I have made my affiliation a secret, and you can even discern it from my posts on this thread.

The Church of God, Kansas City

Perhaps you guys would like to join us in a fast here?

I am not a follower of HWA. My studies and comments are my own.
