rood says Constantine established a new church/state religion and a one world religion.
Never a good sign. Let me guess, too: trash-talk about the council of Nicea?
i did read the post, it was long, but i read it.
let’s recap:
you state Jesus died Wednesday afternoon before sundown, so according to Biblical counting of days, that is day one.
from sundown wed to sundown thurs, is day two.
from sundown thurs to sundown fri is day three.
so if Jesus died on wednesday afternoon, he would have to rise sometime from sundown thurs to sundown fri for Him to rise on the third day.
THIS CAN’T BE!
Luke 24:21 states the first day of the week was the THIRD DAY since the crucifixion.
let’s count back days, the way the Bible does in Luke 13, Exodus 19 and Acts 10:
first day = 3rd day since crucifixion
seventh day = 2nd day since crucifixion
sixth day = day of crucifixion
what do you know, it seems like 2,000 years of Christian belief is right after all!
i didn’t get that far, but your false teacher radar was spot on. apparently he also denies the divinity of Jesus Christ. seems like a combination of herbert armstrong and the way.
Mark!
but your false teacher radar was spot on.
The fact the google's autocomplete suggested "michael root exposed", "michael rood heresy" and "michael rood false prophet" might be a clue.
10 to 1 the mention of Nicea would be enough to start a rant on his part.
Seriously, a couple things stood out:
Wow, Great find! You really need to check out the video of that!
Here's the link: Michael Rood EXPOSED!
i also was looking for a statement of faith on his site and noticed the same thing you did, there isn’t one!
his web site is all about his teachings, heavy on the jewish beliefs and how traditional Christianity is pagan.....
he does refer to the “common era” not “year of our Lord” when giving dates......does this mean he doesn’t believe Jesus is Lord? who knows, i’m with you, i won’t waste hours upon hours searching to find out what he believes.
the fact he doesn’t put out a statement of faith tells me all i need to know.
Ref: 22 Then Jesus went through the towns and villages, teaching as he made his way to Jerusalem.
Note Luke 13:32 follows 22 after a bit of teaching.
Certainly one would count that as day one, and any truthful person would say that the next day and the next makes three days.
But let's suppose that Jesus had just returned in the evening before the Sabbath which would began at sundown and the Pharisee told him as the sun was about to set, that Herod is out to get him.
Wouldn't he have said something like, Go tell that fox, I will keep on driving out demons and healing people tomorrow, and the next day, on the third day I will reach my goal. This makes a total of three days hence.
Will you truthfully suggest that he would have included the day, the evening of which he spoke it in his message to Herod? The message would then have made absolutely no sense at all. Do that and it will be obvious that youre after something here besides what the true time line was.
I will, when I get the opportunity, forward you the disk # in which Rood lays out the proper and obviously correct time line for your future discussions.
While you're waiting, read:
Mathew 12:40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
And tell me what part of "the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." you do not understand.
“let’s suppose”
we need not suppose anything, Jesus tells us “today” is day one, “tomorrow” is day two and the following day is the “third day”.
you can’t get around it, this method is confirmed by Acts 10 and Exodus 19, same pattern, the day an event happens is day one.
so if Jesus truly died on wednesday at 3:00pm, He would have had to rise before sundown on Friday to rise “on the third day”
There is no getting around this.
but Luke 24 blows this wednesday crucifixion day right out of the water.
Luke 24:1 takes place on the first day of the week.
Luke 24:13 tells us the two were walking to Emmaus the very same day, the first day of the week.
Luke 24:21 tells us the first day of the week was “ now the third day since this happened”
since what happened? v20 tells us since the crucifixion happened.
so Luke 24 gives us all we need to know EXACTLY what day Jesus was crucified and what day He arose, applying counting days as Jesus spelled out in Luke 13.
going backwards:
first day of week ( firstfruits ) - 3rd day since crucifixion
7th day of week - 2nd day since crucifixion
6th day of week ( friday ) - day of crucifixion
going forward:
6th day of week - crucifixion day, day one
7th day of week - sabbath day, day two
1st day of week, resurrection day ( firstfruuits ) 3rd day
this is what the Bible teaches and this is what the Church has taught and believed for 2,000 years.
i can’t help that rood learned history from dan brown apparently and thinks “constantine” is to blame for this doctrine.
go to Acts 10.
“lets suppose” the day referred to you Acts 10:3 is a Wednesday.
now, assuming Acts 10:3 happened on a wedneday, what day is it in Acts 10:30 when Cornelius says “four days ago” was Acts 10:3.
was Acts 10:30 on a Saturday or Sunday if Acts 10:3 was on a Wednesday?
Quit bugging me; I'm watching Rood EXPOSED...
When I get the opportunity, I'll send you the disk # as I said so that you may understand. ;)
don’t tell the state of nj i can’t count to three, they may revoke my CPA license.
i will leave it to anyone following this thread to determine who can or can’t count to three ( or four, if anyone wants to take my Acts 10 challenge )
Luke is death to rood and his false teachings.
>> “Luke 24 is absolutely clear Jesus died on Friday” <<
.
That is absolutely false.
Why would you want to twist a verse in Luke to make the Lord a liar? He said that he would be in the tomb 3 days and 3 nights. He was in the tomb three whole days and three whole nights. He arose at sundown, the beginning of the first day, First Fruits, as the priest waved the sheif at the temple. It wouldn’t be what you call sunday for 6 more hours when he arose.
Rood is a very solid source, because he has studied the word of God diligently.
Where in God’s word are we comanded to make a creed and then recite it? Nowhere in the word is a creed listed.
>> “who does rood say Jesus is?” <<
.
Rood just repeats what the word of God says he is.
He is YHWH incarnate
He is the King
He is the suffering servant
He is the Son of Man
He is the Son of God
Why don’t you watch all of disk one and find out for yourself what Rood says?
.
>> “Luke is death to rood and his false teachings.” <<
Luke is death to your false utterances.
Luke in no way makes the Lord a liar; the Lord said that he would be three days and three nights in the Earth; who are you to make him a liar?
He died when the lamb was slaughtered on the altar, and he arose three days and nights later as the sheif was waved at sundown.
this has been quite a fascinating subject you all have been discussing, and I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in.
this is also only the second post I have ever entered on this site since January 2012, when I first signed up ... smiles.
any hoo ... I use to follow the Friday crucifixion, but it didn’t make much sense to me because of the 3 day, 3 night reference, so I kept searching for answers, and eventually the Wednesday night made more sense when I considered the 24 hour period of Wednesday night to Thursday night equals one day and so forth.
I use to get confused about things like this, because I’m like, well do we count the day it starts as one day, or do we need to complete a full 24 hour cycle first, before it can be counted as a day. So, I chose the latter, because it made more sense. Especially when trying to explain to those who were not believers, when they would say, “now wait a minute, that’s not even 3 total days because you can’t count the same day it started as a full day”. Oh well ... carry on brothers and sisters, I just felt moved to chip in a little ... smiles ...
you have a math problem
wednesday at 6pm STARTS day one in the tomb
Start over your count again, this time, using the accurate method
>> “Start over your count again, this time, using the accurate method” <<
.
Don’t you know?
Using the biblical method is “anti-catholic hate.”
Your problem in Luke 24 is that you refuse to use the Hebrew method of rekoning days.
Every day begins at sundown.
Christ was pierced at the very moment that the pasach lamb was killed, at sundown, the beginning of the 5th day. He lay in the tomb through the 5th, 6th, and 7th days, and arose at the very moment that the sheaf was waved, at sundown, the beginning of First Fruits, the first day.
All of that fits perfectly with every scripture on the subject, both in Luke, and in Acts.
Accept those facts, and I promise to testify in your favor at your license suspension hearing ;o)
