If the Sabbath was intended for all people, both Jew and Gentile, then why does Exodus 31:16-17 state that the Sabbath was a sign between God and the "Children of Israel" instead of clarifying that it should be kept by all people of all nations for all time? 12. Why is the Sabbath never mentioned in the Book of Job? The title character of this book is said to be the most righteous and religious man that ever lived (next to Jesus), but with that being the case, how come his story is completely void of any reference to the Sabbath or any other law/restriction given by Moses? 13.

Is the RC church infallible and unable to make errors? ... Even so, in modern times, if a religious body is governed by the same authority, has the same name, organization, worship, work, requirements for membership, etc., as did the original church, it is without question the same church. Again, we affirm there is no need to have a church succession back to the original church. We need only to plant the seed of the kingdom once again. Wheat seed found in the ancient pyramids of Egypt though thousands of years old, when planted, germinated and bore the same wheat grown in that ancient time. So today, when the seed of the kingdom is planted, it will again produce after its kind. Let us examine from the Scriptures the true relationship the church sustains to Christ. The seven short epistles to seven churches of Asia in the book of Revelation reveal the relationship the church bears to Christ.

Melqart Stele of Ben-Hadad-Ezer II: 845 BC ...

The later Ben Hadad of the Bible, the son of Hazael, should now be moved from Ben Hadad III to Ben Hadad IV. It is possible to interpret a statement in the annals of Shalmaneser III of Assyria in such a way as to indicate that Adad-'Idri/Ben Hadad II (if they are identical), against whom the Assyrians fought so frequently, died in battle in 845 B.C. and therefore did not live on as late as 842/841, as previously held. If that was the case, then it would have been natural for his son, the Bir-Hadad of the stele, to have accompanied his father into that battle. If Adad-'Idri was killed at that time, it is possible that Bir-Hadad may have been wounded.

Josh McDowell's Powerful Evidience for Resurrection In subsequent weeks, His disciples claimed that God had raised Him from the dead and that He appeared to them various times before ascending into heaven. From that foundation, Christianity spread throughout the Roman Empire and has continued to exert great influence down through the centuries. LIVING WITNESSES The New Testament accounts of the resurrection were being circulated within the lifetimes of men and women alive at the time of the resurrection. Those people could certainly have confirmed or denied the accuracy of such accounts. The writers of the four Gospels either had themselves been witnesses or else were relating the accounts of eyewitnesses of the actual events. In advocating their case for the gospel, a word that means "good news," the apostles appealed (even when confronting their most severe opponents) to common knowledge concerning the facts of the resurrection.

Psychiatry views faith in God as a brain trick! ... It seems that our brain structure predisposes us to spiritual belief." (Patchen Barss, Me of Little Faith," Saturday Night, October 2005) "When tribes living in remote areas come up with a concept of God as readily as nations living shoulder to shoulder, it's a fairly strong indication that the idea is preloaded in the genome rather than picked up on the fly. If that's the case, it's an equally strong indication that there are very good reasons it's there."

Bruce, Trinity, p 1298) The necessity to formulate the doctrine was thrust upon the Church by forces from without, and it was, in particular, its faith in the deity of Christ, and the necessity to defend it, that first compelled the Church to face the duty of formulating a full doctrine of the Trinity for its rule of faith." (New Bible Dictionary, J. D. Douglas & F. F.

Ellen G. White found guilty of plagiarism (copying) ... This kind of pronouncement, which has come to be called "conditional prophecy," is detailed in the Seventh-day Adventist Commentary. 8 A loose translation of its reasoning goes something like this: God, who can see the end from the beginning, may not be able to see all the end from the beginning. With this myopic condition, God has to cover his bets if he goes on record at any time, because much of this area is a gamble. If events should take a sudden turn for the worse and not conform to the record, or the interpretation of the record, it is the circumstances that have made a mistake, not God. Thus, with such a coin as conditional prophecy, all spokesmen for God can be assured that heads they win and tails you lose. But the spokesmen and God are always right in any case. One of the best examples of that type of reasoning was the statement on some inside information that Ellen received from the angel in 1856: I was shown the company present at the conference.

Kritt's tables generally support Newell's intuition that Seleucid bronze coinage was based on a series of doublings. The special virtue of these tables is that they illustrate both the considerable fluctuation of weights from series to series and also larger metrological drifts over time. They provide a longitudinal overview that allows us to relate coins of such different weights that they would, in isolation, be identified as separate denominations. This effect is particularly apparent in the case of largish bronzes in the range of 11-17 gm., which Newell usually called quadruples, but sometimes tentatively identified as triples; in the context of the charts these coins emerge as a single denomination.

Why is Christianity the only true world Religion? There is no way of knowing what part of Buddhist teachings came from Buddha himself since no record of his teaching seems to have been committed to writing for over 200 years. Then too, Buddhism in its original form was not a religion at all. It was more a system of psychological ethics. Buddha felt no particular need for a god. To him, worship was useless and prayer empty. Confucius claimed to be an agnostic concerning the next life and the world of the gods. His mind was immersed in the affairs of this life. To him, human nature was naturally good. He did not object to ancestor worship. His primary interest was in society and the state. Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was married and had twelve or thirteen wives, not counting slave girls in his harem. He did teach the concept of "one God".

In September 1950 the Scientific American magazine published a brief news item on earthquake activity. Parts of this have been quoted in Watch Tower publications, time and again, for about twenty years, as the principal proof of their claim that great earthquakes have increased in numbers since 1914.
