One Million Dollars Reward To Anyone Who Can Find A Bible Text Which Proves Sunday Keeping

why do we continue to make it about a day? How quickly we have forgotten that it was the Pharisees and church leaders of Jesus' time that plotted to put him to death because they felt he was not observing the sabbath correctly? They had the sabbath, but it didn't stop them from plotting to kill Jesus....

Sometimes I think we use "the sabbath" as our get into heaven free card... we can lie, mistreat people, steal, be abusive, but as long as we observe sabbath, show up for church on sabbath morning all is well.... all those involved in the 3abn saga, sabbath keepers... the various scandals in the local conferences from Lake Region, to Northeasten, to South Central..... all sabbathkeepers.... its not about a day people, no matter how much we try to make it about one...

Talk about misscommunication... Did you even read what Steve wrote David?
Anyhow, I guess you would like this quote from the gospels:

Jhn 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

But it is followed by these verses:

Jhn 15:11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and [that] your joy might be full.
Jhn 15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
Jhn 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Jhn 15:14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
Jhn 15:15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
Jhn 15:16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
Jhn 15:17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.

Do you still like the text? This is what the gospels record Jesus commandment to be.

You refered to Johns first letter. The verses says this:

1Jo 2:1 ¶ My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
1Jo 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world.
1Jo 2:3 ¶ And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
1Jo 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
1Jo 2:5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
1Jo 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
1Jo 2:7 Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.
1Jo 2:8 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.

Notice how John in the two last verses refers to an old commandment and a new commandment but does not at this point go into defining the commmandments. But no worry, reading on he returns to give the definitions:

1Jo 3:19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.
1Jo 3:20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
1Jo 3:21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, [then] have we confidence toward God.
1Jo 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
1Jo 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
1Jo 3:24 ¶ And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
1Jo 4:1 ¶ Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
1Jo 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
1Jo 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

John here agrees with Jesus, His commandment is to love oneanother. John also adds believing in the name of Jesus. Can we still say that the premium idea is a day or A day or even The Day?

As one of the prophets said about obedience to the law:

Hsa 6:4 ¶ O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness [is] as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.
Hsa 6:5 Therefore have I hewed [them] by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments [are as] the light [that] goeth forth.
Hsa 6:6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
Hsa 6:7 But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
Hsa 6:8 Gilead [is] a city of them that work iniquity, [and is] polluted with blood.
Hsa 6:9 And as troops of robbers wait for a man, [so] the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.

thanks Thomas... I think he did miss what I wrote.... such is life... we see what we want to see....

Re: "But let me talk plainly. If you have evidence showing where you believe Ron Wyatt lacks credibility, then please share the evidence. Do not merely be an echo for someone elses prejudices...[sic.]"


Ross:

Let me clearly stated that I am not merely echoing the prejudices of others. My opinion is based upon my personal knowledge, and examination of what Ron Wyatt has written.

Am I afraid to discuss? No. However, probably like most of us, to include you, my life is busy enough that I have to be selective. I do not have either the time or energy to debate (discuss) every point of difference that I might have with everyone who might challenge me to do so.

In the matter or Ron Wyatt, I do not consider this to be an important enough issue to devote time and energy to discussing it. I am quite willing to leave that to others who consider it to be more important.

Why did I say that he had no credibility? Simply to alert people reading here that his credibility may be challenged. By doing so, those who are interested may study it our for themselves. Whatever decision they make is fine with me. Let them study it for themselves.

Even the Bereans challenged Paul by searching the Scriptures themselves to determine whether or not what Paul said was true.

We should do likewise, no matter who it is that tells us that this or that is the truth.

By the way, Paul also commended the Bereans for doing that.

Gregory, I believe that EVERYONES credibility is lacking and what each person (myself esspecially) says or posts will sometimes be 'rubish" BUT! Let me say that the Gold lies in wait to be found! Such are the true "panners" of the west! Searching for gold nuggets, and thankfully the SCRIPTURE is FULL of GOLD! We see but a glimpse of the TRUE TRUTH and we are asstonished by itsè beauty. So what I am rambling on about here, is that ÈweÈ (humans) are not infallible (Popes may think they are ) and that sometimes we offend and sometimes we are flat out wrong, BUT thank God that the truth is available and we do find it sometimes! As for a MILLION dollar CHALLANGE (agast if I were to say bet) I think it is great if it focuses people to search the scriptures, BECAUSE they will be freaked right out when the truth is found!
-Imagine a world that is taught the WRONG day to worship on! Sounds imposible, but it has been a fact. Does God accept the worship that these missinformed people present...
