He HAS shown that speaking out; which was a lost art (except in the radical crowd); is now coming back in favor among the vast group of silent folks.

What if feeling convicted and challenged feels good?
The weekly Sabbath was never ceremonial. It was to commemorate the creation of the universe and was for all mankind. This is in Genesis. There were two more ceremonial Sabbaths that were done away with.
"was historically changed to honor Christ’s resurrection "
It was indeed historically changed (by man) but never Biblically changed by God. Jesus Himself said "If you love Me, keep my Commandments". Most have been taught what you have but the Bible truth remains for those who read it for themselves. Will Jesus ask you if you loved Him why didn't you follow His Commandments?

Even evangelical, store front ones do this.
“Book, chapter, verse??”
See post 159.
Your homepage is a good source of the Catholic point of view.
I don't think it's a bad thing, but it can be a very painful thing.
People in this state are most likely very low functioning in a strictly human/worldly capacity.
We read; right here on the pages of FR; that Catholicism is the SAME as the church Jesus started!
What's this CHANGE you mention?
Three letters:NFL
Perhaps PEW should try to find out WHY there are so few 'noble' Bereans these days.
Acts 17:11-12
Now the Bereans were more noble-minded than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true. As a result, many of them believed, along with quite a few prominent Greek women and men.
“While it is commendable that you spend so much time in prayer, Jesus spoke not of keeping our lights hidden under a barrel.”

Just so you don’t misconstrue the meaning of my words, I described my praying as “religiously”, meaning if you do something religiously, you are always very careful to do it. I don’t “spend so much time in prayer.” In fact, I probably don’t spend enough time. And, believe me, I don’t keep my light hidden under a barrel. May God bless you.
Sadly; there are churches that teach some things can't be shown in the Scriptures.
Should a person avoid them?
Well; it's THEIR soul.
They should choose wisely.
It is NOT JMHO; but the TRUTH!
I think the Bible mentions something like that...
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
No help as no references there. When you quote Scripture it we are supposed to cite the passage so it can be easily referenced.
And the words could just as easily apply to your girlfriend!
