wow ... how do I approach you???
To be honest I’m quite shocked and somewhat appalled.

In your quest to be right in what you believe and then to judge and condemn others in what they believe, you just disparaged and slandered a man who just passed away, and to this day we are still grieving. Especially today, the day of his memorial service, you chose to “speak ill” of this man.

I’m really shocked. I find the words I need to say to you in a Christ-like way, hard to come by. Have you no shame?

Do you honestly feel better about yourself, now that you got that off your chest just to prove your point of view?

You slandered this man and falsely accused him of being a false preacher and even denying the Trinity.

What is wrong with you? What spirit is that?

Believe what you want to believe, but don’t drag people thru the mud just because you don’t agree with them.

Present your case in a orderly and respectful fashion.
I gave you that same respect when I responded to you earlier.

Even before I came to know our Heavenly Father, I was taught to never “speak ill” of the dead, regardless of how negatively I felt about them, because they are not here to defend themselves.

Yet you, as a professing Christian, and in a effort to prove your point of view, chose to take that route.

You want to seem worried for others, well I worry for you.

It doesn’t really matter how many days to me at this point now how long our Lord and Saviour was in the grave, because when in discussing these varying opinions amongst ourselves about it all starts to turn into false accusations and slanderous comments, then I’m pretty much done dealing with that person.

As far as Passover goes. I explained it pretty well for a new student in His Holy Word, and I even backed it up with His Holy Word too, and here is one more just for the road:

Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. (1 Corinthians 5:7-8)

... and please stop calling it a celebration, because it is not some festive party nor some easter egg parade.

It is a solemn ceremony done in “honor” and in “remembrance” of that day when He gave His own body, and shed His own blood as an atonement for us and our sins.

So, whether you choose to see what I see in Scripture or not, it is between you and God, and there is no need to talk derogatory about anyone either while doing it.

I’m a new student, and I’m studying diligently everyday.
I can only ping others to help you see at this point, as I have already explained above why I need to step back and away from you in regards to this subject.

Pastor Arnold did not believe in ONE God in THREE coequal, coeternal PERSONS, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
this makes Pastor Arnold a FALSE PROPHET, whether he is alive today, died yesterday or died 100 years ago. A FALSE PROPHET is a FALSE PROPHET.
Jesus told us false prohets would arise and fool many and Pastor Arnold did just that. He did not believe nor accept the historical, orthodox Christian Faith. From the little research i have been able to uncover, he seemed like a very confused man.
Is it true he also taught that Satan had sex with Eve to produce Cain?
