Your stuck in this world system and use it every day like everyone else like it or not. Attempting to rely on legalism may be an attempt at bragging rights on your part but will have no weight with Christ.
Not sure what is legalism about calling today His 6th day and thanking Him and giving Him the glory who made it.
Is that legalism? Or appreciation ?
Not sure what is legalism in obeying His commandments when He states in His Word that if you love me, obey my commandments. It made me search His Word to find His commandments.. and frankly, there are more than ten.
Is that legalism? Or love?
If you admit you don’t see Rome as a threat, that at least is honest.You don’t really care about prophecy. Or prophecy that may upset what you have been taught is a threat.
We all mock what we don’t understand.
I am not sure about the word ‘bragging’ is for.. that sort of has a conotation that I have an agenda.
The agenda is Truth. And the Truth I know today isn’t because I had an epiphany. I had no vision. I asked, sought and knocked..
Because I had an encounter with a nice Catholic that gave me a set of rosary beads. I was ignorant of these beads and even more ignorant that Mary came down and gave promises with those beads.
Because I wasn’t an impressionable 7 year old when I received the beads, I did what scripture tells us to do- test the spirits.
And that Mary quoted is a liar. Proved with the only thing we have- His Word. And worst yet, that liar pointed to Jesus in the promises.
And it hit me, how would a lying prophetess point to Truth? And I searched and found scripture that confirms that a faithful witness will not lie but a false witness will utter lies.
And then I saw where scripture says a true witness will deliver souls , but he that utters lies, causes deceit.
I knew that Roman Catholics were deceived by that mary spirit.scripture confirms it. They don’t see it that way.
What I then thought, floored me.. what about Mary and Jesus do I believe that is different than Roman Catholics?
The answer - nothing.. it was the same Jesus..
And I asked, sought knocked and tried to defend my faith.. and what He has shown me in that study is what I have showing here.
People can accept truth or deny it. People are certainly well within their right to say what I have posted here is lies and untrue..
There is no advertisement for a church, priest, minister, pastor, ministry, website, book to sell..no advocacy except to know the enemy and his plan.
His Word and a concordance and time with both is all you need. He provides it all. a willing heart to know and live Truth is essential, though.
Without that, the world is a willing alternative..
And deceit can come in all forms.. it comes to catholics in the form of the spirit of Mary.
and that mary ,that scripture can prove she is a liar in the promises she has given, points to her son Jesus. That is a rather inconvenient truth ...
If you believe lies or liars can point to real genuine Truth, then you are welcome to believe it.
I didn’t know what genuine Truth was until I realized what I believed in wasn’t truth..That isnt something people would normally brag about. It is a rather humbling experience in fact.
Sackcloth and ashes worthy,actually.. kind of like earth shattering, life changing , eternity changing event..scream at the top of your voice don’t be blind like I was kind of thing.. out of love..
It is only Him who gets the glory and appreciation and love from me..
That is why I call today His 6th day. I really know Him now ...
He will meet us all where we are at.. HallueluYah! He doesn’t let us stay there..
All that comes across is spiritual pride..... holier than thouness.
I have way bigger fish to fry than what calendar I use.
If it were so important to our faith, surely it would have been mentioned SOMEWHERE in the NT as necessary for believers to observe, like at the Council at Jerusalem.
