I myself see it more as which ones He wants to be spiritual men ie Jacob, and which He doesn’t, ie, Esau. then in this sense, a man who will always be a natural man is pretty well limited to what he can do in life, like an animal.
well we are a new creation in Christ and we’ll be birthed into the world to come with that new body. At any rate, the whole argument is over whether Mary is the Ark of the Covenant, the whole idea of which is bizarre.
klub == w klubieif you have a noun stem ending in "t", it becomes "cie" like
mama = o mamie
sklep = w sklepie
Dzik jest dziki;to pronounce: dzi = "J" in jeans,
Dzik jest zły;
Dzik ma bardzo ostre kły;
Kto spotyka w lesie dzika;
Ten na drzewo szybko zmyka!!!!
You just have to internalize the sound patterns — after all, in English, you don’t have to stop and think that the “-s” of a plural is pronounced /s/ after a voiceless consonant and pronounced /z/ after a vowel or voiced consonant! :)
BOUGHAll pronounced differently! And then why does mass have two 's" and Christmas only one? Ditto for full and joyful?
TOUGH
COUGH
And I know French, Spanish, Italian and some German and Farsi and a smattering of Arabic and Hindi— and while each has it’s craziness (the French with it’s pluperfect subjunctive used only in literature and the German with it’s changes depending on third person gender — ok, Spanish and Italian are easy) Polish is challenging — and I love it for being that one, one get’s a sense of accomplishment!
Catholics will say that David's words and dancing before the Ark, compares with Elizabeth's remarks and John leaping in the womb. That the Ark stayed 3 months with a priest is compared with Mary staying 3 months with Elizabeth.
With a Mary-centric religion, Mary is made the object of worship, when in reality the comparison is to the Christ child within her womb, not to her and her womb.
As to the title of this article: “Am I more blessed than the Virgin Mary?”
It’s a dumb question, really. Of course I’m not.
Jesus said to do this (part of the Passover meal) in REMEMBRANCE of Him, not as a re-enactment of His death. Communion is no more an actual event of His death each time its partaken any more than the Passover meal was the actual event in Egypt each time the the Passover was celebrated.
Romans 6:9-10 9We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. 10For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God.
Catholicism has it all wrong anyway. Jesus isn't our our perpetual sacrifice. He was sacrificed once for all....
He is our great high priest so that we don't need earthly priests any more.
Hebrews 7 11 Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron? 12For when there is a change in the priesthood, there is necessarily a change in the law as well. 13For the one of whom these things are spoken belonged to another tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar. 14For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.
15This becomes even more evident when another priest arises in the likeness of Melchizedek, 16who has become a priest, not on the basis of a legal requirement concerning bodily descent, but by the power of an indestructible life. 17For it is witnessed of him,
"You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek."
23The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, 24but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever. 25Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
26For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. 27He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself. 28For the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect forever.
Hebrews 9 24For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. 25Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, 26for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, 28so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
Hebrews 10 8When he said above, "You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings" (these are offered according to the law), 9then he added, "Behold, I have come to do your will." He does away with the first in order to establish the second. 10And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, 13waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. 14For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.
15And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,
16 "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,"
17then he adds,
"I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more."
18Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.
If Catholics insist on keeping repeating the sacrifice of Jesus, they are clearly showing that they don't believe in the forgiveness that God offers through Jesus, that God hasn't forgiven them.
These are the kinds of sacrifices God is looking for......
Hebrews 13 15 Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name. 16Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
Romans 12:1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.
Too bad. Truth is truth.
God forbids the drinking of blood. It was reiterated in the NT, one of the very few OT regulations to be done so.
I think you misread my post..so lets do it again..If the ark is Christ than none of us can or will ever be the ark
If on the other hand the ark IS MARY containing Christ ..THEN every SAVED man or woman is like the ark..containing Christ..
The problem my friend is with the Catholic position
And yet to say that Jesus was a container for God is not Christian at all.
Genitive
In grammar, genitive (abbreviated gen; also called the possessive case or second case) is the grammatical case that marks a noun as modifying another noun. It often marks a noun as being the possessor of another noun but it can also indicate various relationships other than possession; certain verbs may take arguments in the genitive case; and it may have adverbial uses (see Adverbial genitive). Modern English does not typically mark nouns for a genitive case morphologically rather, it uses the 's clitic or a preposition (usually of) but the personal pronouns do have distinct possessive forms. In many Afroasiatic languages the construct state is used to express similar relations between nouns.
Depending on the language, specific varieties of genitive-nounmain-noun relationships may include:Depending on the language, specific varieties of genitive-nounmain-noun relationships may include:
- possession (see Possessive case):
- inalienable possession ("Janets height", "Janets existence", "Janets long fingers")
- alienable possession ("Janets jacket", "Janets drink")
- relationship indicated by the noun being modified ("Janets husband")
- composition (see Partitive case):
- substance ("a wheel of cheese")
- elements ("a group of men")
- source ("a portion of the food")
- participation in an action:
- origin ("men of Rome")
- reference ("the capital of the Republic" or "the Republic's capital")
- description ("man of honour", "day of reckoning")
- compounds ("doomsday" ("doom's day"), Scottish Gaelic "ball coise" = "football", where "coise" = gen. of "cas", "foot")
Depending on the language, some of the relationships mentioned above have their own distinct cases different from the genitive.
Possessive pronouns are distinct pronouns, found in Indo-European languages such as English, that function like pronouns inflected in the genitive. They are considered separate pronouns if contrasting to languages where pronouns are regularly inflected in the genitive. For example, English my is either a separate possessive adjective or an irregular genitive of I, while in Finnish, for example, minun is regularly agglutinated from minu- "I" and -n (genitive).
In some languages, nouns in the genitive case also agree in case with the nouns they modify (that is, it is marked for two cases). This phenomenon is called suffixaufnahme.
In some languages, nouns in the genitive case may be found in inclusio that is, between the main nouns article and the noun itself.
Many languages have a genitive case, including Albanian, Arabic, Armenian, Basque, Czech, Slovak, Estonian, Finnish, Gaelic, Georgian, German, Greek, Icelandic, Irish, Latin, Latvian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Sanskrit, Bosnian, Serbian, Croatian, Slovene, Turkish and Ukrainian. English does not have a proper genitive case, but a possessive ending, -s (see below), although pronouns do have a genitive case.
so, are you going back on your statement that the Ark = type of Christ?
On the day we call the day of the sun, all who dwell in the city or country gather in the same place. The memoirs of the apostles and the writings of the prophets are read, as much as time permits.The liturgy of the Eucharist unfolds according to a fundamental structure which has been preserved throughout the centuries down to our own day. It displays two great parts that form a fundamental unity:
When the reader has finished, he who presides over those gathered admonishes and challenges them to imitate these beautiful things.
Then we all rise together and offer prayers* for ourselves . . .and for all others, wherever they may be, so that we may be found righteous by our life and actions, and faithful to the commandments, so as to obtain eternal salvation.
When the prayers are concluded we exchange the kiss.
Then someone brings bread and a cup of water and wine mixed together to him who presides over the brethren.
He takes them and offers praise and glory to the Father of the universe, through the name of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and for a considerable time he gives thanks (in Greek: eucharistian) that we have been judged worthy of these gifts.
When he has concluded the prayers and thanksgivings, all present give voice to an acclamation by saying: 'Amen.'
When he who presides has given thanks and the people have responded, those whom we call deacons give to those present the "eucharisted" bread, wine and water and take them to those who are absent.171
