They belong together and I can add more.
Let me explain something to you
Arrogance?
Catholics are the ONLY true/complete Christian church on Earth.....
Catholics are a church? Hearts of stone perhaps. They aren't Christian - they don't even know what it means to be Christian and have no desire to learn. They are taught they 'got it' when they don't. They have submitted to a worldly secular organization with man made teachings/traditions and not to JESUS The Word only.
Mormons and muslims are not Christian at all....Protestants are indeed Christian, just incomplete.
Born again Christians are the only ones who are Christian, they hear and obey JESUS THE WORD only.
In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."
Ezekiel 36:26 "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh."
Herod's directed his men THERE, in accordance with what he was told by the Magi.
But first; ya gotta get TO the 'boat'!
Ok then: Mary is dead and Peter was wrong a LOT!
Happy now?
We prefer unencumbered by a lot of useless ritual and venertaion of non-gods.
WE (if you mean GENTILES) never DID 'have' PASSOVER. That was institutted FOR the JEWS by GOD as a rememberence of His deliverence.
Haven't you EVER read (and understood) Acts chapter 15?
A smart person could follow the links backward.
Do I have to be your own little magisterium and do the work for you?
AHhh...
Considered...
By WHOM?
Why thank you!
I hope it's not been me, per se, but the things I've posted.
So Jesus could have been as much as two years old when the astrologers, magi, wise guys, whatever they were, found Jesus in a house.
What next? No more nimbus?
He wasn't ashamed - by the mid 300 the catholic cult wanted to make changes to Christianity.
The first Christians, Jewish and Gentile, were certainly aware of the Hebrew calendar.
“But we [ourselves] sailed from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread [the Passover week], and in five days we joined them at Troas, where we remained for seven days. “
“And when he saw that it was pleasing to the Jews, he proceeded further and arrested Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread [the Passover week].”
“And when the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all assembled together in one place, “.........And they were all filled (diffused throughout their souls) with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other (different, foreign) languages (tongues), as the Spirit [a]kept giving them clear and loud expression [in each tongue in appropriate words].......Now there were then residing in Jerusalem Jews, devout and God-fearing men from every country under heaven.
Acts 27:9 “But as [the season was well advanced, for] much time had been lost and navigation was already dangerous, for the time for the Fast [the Day of Atonement, about the beginning of October] had already gone by, Paul warned and advised them"
I've been in dairy barns that supply milk for public consumption. There's simply no way possible to keep them as clean as you seem to be implying they are kept. Livestock are not housebroken. They go where they go and if they're in the barn more than not, it ain't clean and no farmer has the time to spend his days scrubbing manure off the floor of the barn, which would be a 24/7 job.
she didn't give birth "on the floor" she absolutely gave birth on a cloak, spread over a bed of clean straw and probably quite comfortable.....
A cloak spread on straw *quite comfortable*????
And for giving birth no less???
you need to get around a little.
I don't think I'm the one who needs to get around a little.
Since It is Finished, we celebrate the Finished work of JESUS as He sits at the right hand of The Father by hearing and obeying Him daily. He shed ALL His blood for ALL. Yet, Rome the 'religious' wants more blood everyday. So much for their hearing and obeying. They found their own way through the wide gate to death/destruction.
Amazing how catholics make up things - it goes hand in hand on how and what they are taught.
MM, What’s the matter with you???!!! Haven’t you read the Infancy Gospel of James?
1 Corinthians 2:1-2 And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. 2 For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
1 Corinthians 2:11-16 For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. 13 And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual.
14 The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. 15 The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one. 16 “For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
Young's Literal Translation
Revelation 1:5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first-born out of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to him who did love us, and did bathe us from our sins in his blood,
LOL!
No.
What does it say? The stables in those days were so clean they could eat off the floor?
I’d say it’s a pretty safe bet that if farmers today don’t have the time to clean up after their livestock the way some think they do or should, that those in those days certainly had better things to do with their time than shovel manure all day.
Praise God! Yesterday you posted Scriptures to me and when I read them my Spirit moved inside of me and I thought God has bathe us in His Word/Truth. This Scripture made me remember this. God held nothing back but gave in abundance.
What? The floors weren’t tiled like Rome or Herod’s place? No wonder catholics can’t relate.
