Religious Leaders Lay Out the Unifying Message All Americans Can Rally Around

June 19, 2013 at 2:31am

In reply to Rem.ember777.

There are two schools of thought to consider. The book of acts was written to tell Gentiles that they did not have to become Jews to receive Salvation. And the book of Hebrews is there to explain to Jews that they could still be Jews , and receive Christ ‘s Salvation.Today there are many Messianic Jews who celebrate the Sabbath. Gentile Christian celebration and coming together on the first day of the week is Biblical as the Apostles taught throughout the Gentile Churches that they founded.
In actuality, first century Christians met almost daily, to strengthen each other, share3 food and commemorate Christ’s death.

SIRHAN Exodus 4:21-23
21 The Lord said to Moses, “When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. 22 Then say to Pharaoh, ‘This is what the Lord says: Israel is my firstborn son, 23 and I told you, “Let my son go, so he may worship me.” But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.’
”Israel in this case is the Nation of Israel, and I know that you knew that , but felt the need to confuse others with incomplete quotations.
The verse in Jeremiah31:9 Refers to Ephraim , a major tribe in the northern kingdom of Judah, a part of the nation of Israel. As such if Israel is His son Ephraim, as part of Israel is also His son.
There was also Jacob who God renamed Israel before the birth of Benjamin.
If you read the Book , instead of googling phrases, you won’t hit these snags.
New Controversial First-of-Its-Kind Ammo Claims to Offer ‘Peaceful and Natural Deterrent to Radical Islam’

Sirhan Acts 10 verses 9-16
9 Around noon the next day, while they were on their way and coming close to the town, Peter went up on the roof to pray. 10 He became very hungry and wanted to eat, and while the food was being prepared, he fell into a trance 11 and saw heaven open and something like a large linen sheet coming down, being lowered by its four corners to the ground. 12 In it were all kinds of four-footed animals, reptiles, and birds of the air.
13 Then a voice told him, “Get up, Peter! Kill something and eat it.”
14 But Peter said, “Absolutely not, Lord, for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean!”
15 Again the voice came to him a second time, “You must stop calling unclean what God has made clean.” 16 This happened three times. Then the sheet was quickly taken back into heaven.

AHHH METEORS My androgynous monarch of mendacity,
you should not comment on that which you have a limited understanding. Reading the Bible and understanding what you have read, requires study.The book of Acts teaches the Gentile that they do not have to become Jews to receive salvation. Acts 10 verses 9-16

When STUDYING the Bible one finds connections all throughout and one who picks and chooses verses usually errs because they aren’t seeking knowledge , and only wishing to denigrate.
I have read many of your posts, and believe you have labled yourself an atheist. Leave the Bible study to the seekers.
Now Atheist Activists Launching Attack on a Bible That Sits Next to Fla. Mayor’s Desk in City Council Chambers

In reply to bbrown2.

Luke 16:16-17 “The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed UNTIL John. Since that time, the good news of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing their way into it. It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.
The book of Acts (the whole book) is to tell us that we do not have to become Jews to be saved, and the book of Hebrews was to tell Jews they didn’t have to quit being Jews to be saved.
So if you read , and parse verse by verse and don’t connect all the pieces, you are just reading, as would be expected of one who wishes to denigrate, not learn.

It’s the difference between reading and studying.

SO you have been threatened by Christians with bodily harm ? When and where? Prove your claim of being forced to believe!
Ann Coulter vs. Sean Hannity on Immigration: ‘You Are Like a Liberal Making a Silly Argument!’

A plan might be to enforce the laws that are on the books. This bill is just like any other Progressive bill, the purpose is to grow government and create Democrat voters. Same with gun control. If the laws already on the books were enforced, there would not be a broken system.
Did Patriots Owner Violate Employment Law When He Said This About Tim Tebow’s Christian Faith?

Maybe they were also impressed that everyone he has worked with has said that he is a very intelligent and coachable young man.

What probably interests him more is that all Tebow does is win. At high school, college, and in the NFL. At Denver he just took over a losing team and LED them to the playoffs and a playoff victory.
By the way, how did passing accuracy , good footwork Manning do.? well let’s see 13 and 4 record. Good. Lost in the first round of the playoffs uh-oh
Didn’t Mr. Tebow win a playoff game. Game winning pass in OT I think? HMMMM
