Christ Enters Rest Why Christians Observe the Lord’s Day By Robert Clanton Copyright This purpose of this article is to explain the chronological and Christological process that gave The Lord’s Day the prominence in Christian worship. Among the Sabbatarian groups such as the Adventist and the many splinter groups of the former Herbert and Garner Ted Armstrong followers, there is a general condemnatio
Hey, thanks for asking. I had to fight a battle with cancer. I won, so far.
For we know that she was pregnant before they were married and Matt 1:25 says that they didn't have any relations until the child was born. In a weird way Jesus was born out of earthly wedlock. Anyone have any thoughts on this one? Christ was not born out of wedlock. In order for him to be "the seed of David"
Uhmm, if all women lived as Mary, there'd be no human race at all in a very short time. I was speaking of modesty, faith and humility. Was it that difficult to catch? Mary, may or may not have had other children. Catholics and Orthodox think not, some Protestants think so. That is not the point. I wa
What in God's name are you saying here? I was speaking of modesty, faith and humility. Was it that difficult to catch?
As we come to Christmas we all hear the story of Christ birth. Often singing, "Round yon Virgin Mother and Child, holy infant …" Today, I paused to contemplate this "Virgin Mother and her holy infant" . What kind of Mother and Virgin must she have been. That the she would conceive the "Son of God" that would bring redemption into the world and save mankind from th
The Sabbath Day And the Synagogue in the Book of Acts By Sabbatismus Often used by the Sabbatarians as "proofs" that Gentiles and Christians are to keep the Sabbath day of the Jews are the scriptures in book of Acts. For the casual reader, who may be unfamiliar with the Synagogue and the rest of the teachings of both the Jews and Scripture, it may appear
Thanks for both of the kind replies.
The Sin of Onan and Contraception Is it WHAT they say it is? Even if you think you are going to read the same old party line, you are in for some surprises. I'm both Christian and Catholic, I don't have an agenda in writing this one way or the other. I do believe what I write is an honest assessment of the scriptures regarding the sin of Onan
You are correct. Very well said., Preacherman
The Adventist, Jehovah Witnesses and the Armstrong splinter groups all say that the first big lie is the teaching of the immortal soul. They claim that Christianity in general follow the lie of Satan and promised that Adam and Eve would not die. And that the teaching of the immortal soul means that no one dies. The question is what is "death " and what d
Dear Ms. Cl: You'll find the same hatred by Christ who despised the hypocrisy of the Pharisees in Mt.23 as I despise the hypocrisy and abuse of sincere Christians. You guy are still stuck in 1972 "place of safety" cult nonsense. In 33 years you haven't grown to understand Christ or the scipture enough to know that he that seeks to save his life shall lose it. Remember that scripture? You don't really think the followers of Koresh thought that K
ParaTed2k says, "Yet another "Blame the Victim" rant!." Wait a minute, let's not forget to see the whole picture. I don't ONLY blame the murderer, I blame the whole damnable organization, that uses and abuses people and religion. Apparrently, the LCG is blaming, itself too, because, they are firing the Pastor. There are lot's of people defensively claiming that no one but Terry Ratzmann should take responsiblity for the crime he committed. They
Thank you preacherman, I am trying to save them with all my heart. I'm telling them, what I wish someone had told me before, I spent ten years in that cult. But, maybe the seeds planted today, will bring forth fruit in the future. If they are are open to be watered from the Spirit of the Lord.
Ronald L. Dart , another spin off from the Herbert Armstrong - Garner Ted Armstrong Cult For any of those few who hear Ron Dart as a radio evangelist and want to know more, listen up. Here is the truth about what he teaches before you get trapped in his religion. Ron Dart's "born to win" ministry was born out of the Herbert Armstrong Cult, where he served
Clwhrn wrote: "I'll place my fate in his hands." . No doubt your fate will be in his hands. You are in for an eyeopener. The Apostle Paul pronouced a curse upon your gospel in Galatians1:6-9 and said, "let them be accursed" which preach it. So, the choice is yours. Take a lesson from Luke 16: and see what it means to be accursed. 19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously ever
clwhrn, Your reply is full of error and false assumptions. That is why your in a cult. Y ou use a lot of the cult terms like "changed the Sabbath to Sunday" . If you had taken the time to read my reply, you would know the Catholic Church never changed the Jewish Sabbath to Sunday. You don't read so you keep professing the same falsehoods you were taught by Armstrong. Again, had you read my links, you would see that I cover Acts where
Link Here, at the top is the link to Why Christians DON'T keep the Jewish Sabbath. The truth is here for you. You can get yourself out of that cult or you can refuse to look and go on your merry way. If you do chose not to look, then you put your own salvation and that of your children at risk. It's up to you. Don't say no one told you. Here's the link to
Ms. Clwhrn, There is a place for righteous indignation. I don't hate Ratzmann or anyone else. I abhor the false teachings of Armstrongism. I'm sure you and your husband are sincere people. But, you've been sincerely mislead by first a self-professed prophet and apostle, Herbert Armstrong and secondly, his son, Garner Ted Armstrong. Your argument about Paul is typical of the Armstrong's. Paul was a Jew, we expect devout Jews to keep the S

The above example gives you an idea of how exclusive the group is. Now take a look at how bizarre their theology is: Ratzmann goes into a church and murders 7 and injures others in the midst of a group of worshipers, right or wrong. He does immeasurable harm to not only those whom he injured and murdered but those who survived, family and friends. They will live with this horror for the rest of their lives. And the answer from Gilchris
Let me tell you, miss anonymous, I know you guys only too well. Rod Meredith thinks he and his itty bitty following, like David Koresh' s group is "the center of God's work on earth". He is a direct spin off of Herbert Armstrong's Church. He worked with the self-professed, self-proclaimed prophet and "God's Apostle" , Herbert Armstrong. Don't tell me, I'm not speaking the truth. Rod Meredith along with the other Armstrong splinter
It was only a matter of time. One of the splinter groups from the Worldwide Church of God, started by the self-professed endtime Apostle and Prophet Herbert W. Armstrong, had a member come in and end the lives of 7 and himself by shooting them. The self-proclaimed "Living Church of God" became a deadly place to be attending Church. These "Churches of
Dysmas, do not be discouraged. There have always been some differences among the Catholic Church. It is "Catholic" because it is "in all nations" as Christ commanded that they make disciples in Mt.28. These things tend to sort themselves out. The problem for the Catholic Church is that it is a big ship, and big ships turn slowly. However, its in a world that turns rapidly. Oh trust me, the Catholic Church is unique. There isn't any other ch
I understand, that scripture would have been a new one on me, NJ.. But, thanks anyway.
