Next, since you go by sola scriptura, I gave you the above, but also, historically, we see that the early Church Fathers compared the observance of the Sabbath to the observance of the rite of circumcision, and from that they demonstrated that if the apostles abolished circumcision (Gal. 5:1-6), so also the observance of the Sabbath must have been abolished.

Jesus did not abolish circumcision...Christians still get circumcised today...Jesus abolished the Jewish reason for circumcision...

and Revelation 1:10 indicate that, even during New Testament times, the Sabbath is no longer binding and that Christians are to worship on the Lord’s day, Sunday, instead.

Sunday is not the Lord's day...Never has been...Never will be...That reference in Revelation is not a reference to Sunday...

If anything, Sunday is (some) Christian's day (to attend church)...

Circumcision was ended for Gentiles by the council of Jerusalem at the urgings of +Paul

So the posters on this thread mainly constitute thoughts of Seventh Day (Sunday isn't the Sabbath) Adventists , Jehovah Witnesses, Four Square UFO worshipers, Unitarians and few if any protestants. What a revelation. So few if any volume posters take the bible seriously.

So much for the reformation. Must I now also represent the apparent abandoned protestant contingent bereft of supporters. The vestiges of birth control /p>

Since most on this thread apparently do not believe in God, Jesus , Trinity, it is apparent that these aforementioned and their sycophant admirers are prime candidates for agnosticism/ atheism or even Allah.

It might be necessary for the moderator to establish a complete new set of rules. Oh wait ,he just did that.
