351: Which Old Testament text did Jesus prefer and quote from?
The rebuttal to this Catholic argument is that "Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther" were always included in the "history collection" of Jewish books and "Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon" were always included in the "poetry collection". By quoting one book from the collection, it verifies the entire collection. None of the apocryphal books were ever quoted in the New Testament. Not even once! This proves the Catholic and Orthodox apologists wrong when they try to defend the apocrypha in the Bible. I. What books were in each of the three collections: The Law (Torah) - Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy The Prophets (Neviim) - Joshua, Judges, 1 & 2 Samuel (one volume), 1 & 2 Kings (one volume), Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, the 12 Minor Prophets (one volume) The Writings (Kethubim) - Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Ruth, Song of Solomon, Ecclesiastes, Lamentations, Esther, Daniel, Ezra and Nehemiah (one volume), 1 & 2 Chronicles (one volume) II.

352: Official creed of the Methodist church
The Holy Scripture containeth all things necessary to salvation; so that whatsoever is not read therein, nor may be proved thereby, is not to be required of any man that it should be believed as an article of faith, or be thought requisite or necessary to salvation. In the name of the Holy Scripture we do understand those canonical books of the Old and New Testament of whose authority was never any doubt in the Church. The names of the canonical books are: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, The First Book of Samuel, The Second Book of Samuel, The First Book of Kings, The Second Book of Kings, The First Book of Chronicles, The Second Book of Chronicles, The Book of Ezra, The Book of Nehemiah, The Book of Esther, The Book of Job, The Psalms, The Proverbs, Ecclesiastes or the Preacher, Cantica or Songs of Solomon, Four Prophets the Greater, Twelve Prophets the Less.

353: Pentecost in Acts 2:1 was on Sunday
It is well documented beyond question that the Sadducees controlled the Temple worship and the feast days at the time of Christ. It wasn't until about 70 AD that the Pharisees view came into power and prominence. This means that even though both methods of calculating Pentecost agreed that it fell on the first day of the week in Acts 2:1, the Sadducces had the official say at this time to calculate the actual day. In other words, during Christ's 30 years on earth as a man, Pentecost always fell on the first day. Regardless of whether the Sadducee's or Pharisee's method of calculating Pentecost was used the year Christ died, both would calculate Pentecost in Acts 2:1 as the first day of the week. This means that all the discussion about whether Pentecost always fell on a Sunday is irrelevant to Acts 2:1 because even the method noted by Josephus and Philo and the Pharisees had Pentecost fall on the first day of the week in Acts 2:1. Even Samuele Bacchiocchi, the Seventh-day Adventist ... ...

357: Reasons why the Apocrypha does NOT belong in the Bible!
... However, in many of our Bibles there is much material that is uninspired, including history, poetry, maps, dictionaries, and other information. This may be the reason for the appearance of this material in the Septuagint. The apocrypha was not in the Hebrew canon. There are reputed to be 263 quotations and 370 allusions to the Old Testament in the New Testament and not one of them refers to the Apocryphal The usual division of the Old Testament by the Jews was a total of 24 books: The Books of Moses (51, The Early prophets 14; Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings ~, The Late Prophets (4; Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, the 12 Minor Prophets), and the Hagiagrapha (11; Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Song of Solomon. Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Esther, Daniel, Ezra-Nehemiah, and Chronicles i. These 24 books contain all the material in our numbering of 39. Josephus spoke concerning the canon, but his book division combined Ruth-Judges and Lamentation-Jeremiah for a total of 22 books rather than 24: ... ...

... He gets so excited over this "mount Everest" discovery, that you would think the "oral tradition" was the details of the Passover feast because the Holy Spirit never gave us Exodus 12. Well because Carlton is so easily excited, we carefully and quietly say the word, "Hanukkah" to him. (This will no doubt end up in his next revision of his book, and he will no doubt express his "gratitude" to me for pointing it out to him.) Hanukkah is a non-biblical Jewish feast day, of a purely human origin that was instituted by Judas Machabeus in 164 B.C. mentioned in 1 Maccabees 4:56, and referenced in the New Testament: "At that time the Feast of the Dedication took place at Jerusalem" John 10:22. Another human origin celebration was that of Jephthah's daughter: "Thus it became a custom in Israel, that the daughters of Israel went yearly to commemorate the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in the year." (Judges 11:39-40) The key is that if the Jews stopped celebrating Hanukkah or the 4 ... ...

360: Dancing and the Bible: Is it OK?
Numerous Old Testament instances of dancing being approved can be cited; however, a study of these accounts will reveal that each involved an expression of rejoicing or religious enthusiasm because of some victory or accomplishment. Such is the situation as Miriam led the women "with timbrels and dances" (Exodus 15:20), after the deliverance from Egyptian bondage, or Jepthah's daughter greeting him with "timbrels and dances" after a great victory (Judges 11:34). David's thanksgiving for the safe return of the ark of God was evidenced as he "danced before Jehovah with all his might" (II Samuel 6:14). Similar use of the term "dancing" is made by the Psalmist to express joy and praise unto Jehovah God. Since the term "dancing" is capable of expressing a broad range of man's thoughts, it may also portray that which is lewd and sinful. Moses, having received the law from God, returned from the mount to find the people dancing naked around the golden calf which they had formed (Exodus ... ...

... According to Awake!, February 22, 1961, page 7, the estimated number of annual deaths in earthquakes before 1914 was 5,000. But in 1974 the Watch Tower Society lowered that figure.

Estimating that at least 900,000 of these had died since 1914, the Society presented the following impressive statistics (page 73): Earthquake deaths each year Before 1914: 3,000 Since 1914: 15,000 These same statistics were published again in Awake!, January 8, 1977 (pages 15, 16). However, the book Happiness How to Find It, published in 1980, managed to "improve" the figures considerably, as the table on page 149 shows: Earthquake deaths Up to 1914 1,800 a year Since 1914 25,300 a year That the number of annual deaths could be increased in four years (from 1974 to 1980) to such an ... ...

(Gal 4:4-5; Eph 1:7) 83. Did you know that regardless of whether the Sadducee's or Pharisee's method of calculating Pentecost was used the year Christ died, both would calculate Pentecost in Acts 2:1 as the first day of the week. Did you also know that the official position of the Seventh-day Adventist church was that Pentecost in Acts 2:1 fell on a Sunday that year? 84.

He was excommunicated from the Presbyterian Church over his heretical Christological doctrines. (Strachan, George, The Pentecostal Theology of Edward Irving, Hendrickson Publishers, 1973, pg. 13) On March 28th 1830, a Miss Mary Campbell began to speak in other tongues and claimed she was divinely healed. The following year on October 30th 1831 her sister, Mrs. Cardale also began to speak in tongues and to prophesy. Edward Irving formed his own church called the Catholic Apostolic Church and he soon ordained its first twelve apostles on November 7th, 1832. "He also expounded a detailed teaching on the gifts of the Holy Spirit and gave the whole of his theology an immediacy by his expectation of the immanent second coming of the Lord.

375: Introduction to the history of psychiatry
... The first mad houses were to accommodate the rich, not the poor who were unable to afford such a luxury to hire out the room and board of an insane family member. Only the rich had the money. Today, the rich will put their aged parents into an old folks home that might cost $5-20,000 per month. Just as such a private option is out of reach of the average working person today, so too was a private mad house out of reach for the peasant, propertyless class. Imagine how impossible it would be financially for a poor working class family to pay for one of their children to live in a hotel room for a year and have a servant 24 hours a day to care and feed them. "William Battie, prime mover in the foundation of St. Luke's, owned his own madhouses on the side - in Islington and Clerkenwell - to which he transferred the more well-to-do private patients who came his way. A self-made man, at his death he left an estate valued at the astonishing figure of between one and two hundred thousand ... ...

377: Sola Scriptura and the Apostolic Fathers: 250 AD: Cyprian
But the text provides just as many problems for the Orthodox because it proves that the celebration of Easter began well after 100 AD, since at 250 AD the practice was all over the map. Had there been a true "apostolic tradition" these variations and differences would not exist! The issue has never been settled because Easter is a man-made holy day that developed long after the apostles died. Had scripture revealed it, we would know exactly how to celebrate it. Christ did not tell Christians to remember his birth at Christmas, but his death... and not once a year at Easter, but every Lord's Day, through communion. "Easter", therefore in the early church was a weekly event! The earliest apostolic fathers considered Sunday the weekly celebration of the Resurrection and the Lord's Supper the weekly remembrance of His death. "2. Let nothing be innovated, says he, nothing maintained, except what has been handed down. Whence is that tradition? Whether does it descend from the authority of ... ...

... The Jewish leader Herod left Jerusalem and unsuccessfully sought refuge with Malichus at Petra, after which he travelled to Rome to press his claim as leader of the Jewish Kingdom. Herod was installed by Rome as King of Judaea, and returned triumphantly to evict the Parthians from Jerusalem in 39 BC, subsequently forcing Malichus and others who had supported the Parthians to pay'large sums of money'. Herod and the Nabataeans went on to have several more military clashes in the following decade. Malichus died in 30 BC, after more than three decades in power, and was succeeded by King Obodas II (30-9 BC). Rome formally annexed Egypt the same year, after the deaths of Antony and Cleopatra. A period of considerable regional political intrigues followed, which resulted in a battle between the Jewish forces of Herod and the Nabataeans of Obodas in 9 BC. During the winter of 9-8 BC, King Obodas died. He was succeeded by the greatest of Nabataean kings, a certain Aeneas who was to rule from 9 ... ...

380: Eupolemus 158 BC chronology
Eupolemus dates creation to 5307 BC validating the Septuagint 1. "Again, Eupolemus in a work of similar scope says that the total number of years from Adam to the fifth year of king Demetrius (= the twelfth year of Ptolemy's reign in Egypt) comes to 5149 years. (5) From the point when Moses led the Jews out of Egypt to the same point comprises in all 1580 years. From that date to Cnaeus Domitius and Asinius holding the office of consul at Rome comprises 120 years. [~40 BC]" (Clement of Alexandria, Misc. 1.21.141, quoting Eupolemus who wrote in 158 BC) a. Eupolemus dates creation to 5th year (158 BC) of reign of Demetrius I Soter (162-150 BC) at 5307 BC b. Eupolemus: Creation to year 5 of Demetrius I Soter = 5149 years = (5149 + 158 BC) = 5307 BC. This is very close to the LXX at 5554 BC and far from MT at 4174 BC. c. Eupolemus: Exodus to year 5 of Demetrius I Soter = 1580 years = (1580 + 158 BC) = 1738 BC. Actual exodus was 1446 BC.

382: Conclusion to the 500 year historical overview:
... Its like the "Cash for Life" lottery, except you are guaranteed to win every time, provided you display a well understood pattern of behaviours in the presence of a psychiatrist who declares you "a winner". Most people are shocked to learn that street people, actually want to live and beg on the streets and have no desire to better themselves and refuse to work if it is offered to them. In this way, the Medieval people correctly ignored insanity as a separate category among those whom they viewed as "the poor". Our 500 year survey of psychiatric history coupled with the most up to date, state of art scientific biological testing, leads us to identify the key that unlocks the mystery of insanity today, namely, that insanity is a behaviour, not a medical disease that these behaviour have their origin in the spirit not the body. The mystery of insanity is solved when we ignore all psychiatric diagnosis' labels and focus on checklisting specific behaviours associated with insanity that are ... ...

Then, at 14 weeks, she started to suffer terrible cramp. An ultrasound scan was carried out to show the shape of the developing foetus and its position in the womb. When the picture emerged, it was the moment that every parent-to-be dreads. Their unborn son's brain was mis-shapen and his spinal cord was sticking out from a deformed backbone. He had spina bifida.

In Leviticus 16:12-13 God commanded, "Then he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from the altar" of burnt offering to burn the incense in the tabernacle. But Nadab and Abihu decided to do it their own way and get the coals of fire somewhere else. They offered unauthorized fire. They died a horrible death because they did something God did not authorize. They were presumptuous. God will not tolerate substitutes for His divine way. God is very particular about the way He wants things done. Just as Nadab and Abihu offered unauthorized fire, is there any excuse for us to offer unauthorized mechanical instrumental music to the Lord? According to Webster, presumptuous means, "to take upon oneself without permission or authority, taking too much for granted, showing overconfidence, arrogance." Being presumptuous as far as God is concerned is a sin. Psalms 19:13 says, "Keep back your servant from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, ... ...

On the faith, then, of all antiquity, we affirm, that the books in the Scriptures, containing these predictions were written before the destruction of Jerusalem, and we confirm this assertion by particular proof. The book of St. Matthew, who died previously to 'that event, supposed to have been written about eight years after the ascension of our Saviour, was published before the dispersion of the Apostles ; for Eusebius says, that St. Bartholemew took a copy Of it with him to India; and the dispersion of the Apostles took place within twelve years after the ascension of our Lord. St. Mark must have written his book at the latest in the time of Nero, for he died in the eighth year of that emperor's reign. The book by St. Luke was written before the Acts, as the first verses of that narrative prove ; and the Acts were written before the death of Paul, for they carry down his history only to A.D. 63 ; whereas he was not crucified until the 12th of Nero, the very year before the Jewish ... ...

She was bathing her children, first her four-year-old girl and then her two-year-old son. She lived in a country where the water supply was not perfectly hygienic; there was pure spring water for drinking, and tainted water from the river for bathing and washing. While she was bathing the little girl, she saw the child sucking at the sponge, but did not stop her. She even gave her little son a glass of the impure water to drink. Naturally, she did this unconsciously, or only half consciously, for her mind was already under the shadow of the incipient depression. A short time later, after the incubation period had passed, the girl came down with typhoid fever and died. The girl had been her favorite. The boy was not infected. At that moment the depression reached its acute stage, and the woman was sent to the institution. From the association ... ...

It is not a fairy tale or a fable, for the story of Jesus has been documented by not only reliable New Testament writers but by major historians as well. It is a story that can be exciting to you and might possibly change your life. Jesus was born in the year 4 B.C., in the city of David, Bethlehem. He was born of the virgin Mary, fathered in her by the Holy Spirit of God. Angels announced to the world in beautiful song, glory to God in the highest and on earth peace among men with whom He is well pleased. One angel in particular announced to them, "Behold I bring you good news of great joy, for to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior who is Christ the Lord." Thus the shepherds were invited to pay homage to the new King. Wise men were called from afar by the shining of a glorious star. Later old Simeon and old Anna saw their life's ambition come to pass as they viewed the new child, the Savior, as God had promised them they would before they died. Jesus was raised in the ... ...

He went to Bedlam and was treated by Monro who, "blooded him largely, confined him to a dark room, and put a strong blister on each of his arms, with another over all his head. But still he was as 'mad' as before, praying or singing, or giving thanks continually; of which having laboured to cure him for six weeks in vain, though he was now so weak he could not stand alone, his mother dismissed the doctor and apothecary, and let him be 'beside himself' in peace". Another case of madness he understood was triggered by extreme grief of a mother whose son died. Wesley stated that the mind can cause the body to get sick. "From fretting for the death of her son.

398: First Century Synagogue Top Plans: Sardis, Asia 49 BC
... Civil courts in the church: "Does any one of you, when he has a case against his neighbor, dare to go to law before the unrighteous and not before the saints? Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not competent to constitute the smallest law courts? Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life? So if you have law courts dealing with matters of this life, do you appoint them as judges who are of no account in the church? I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not among you one wise man who will be able to decide between his brethren, but brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers?" (1 Corinthians 6:1-6) D.

(Genesis 23:16) "When he cut the hair of his head (and it was at the end of every year that he cut it, for it was heavy on him so he cut it), he weighed the hair of his head at 200 shekels by the king's weight."

400: Seal of Baalis King of Bnei-Ammon: Bible Clay Bulla and seals ...
... Milkom-ʾor ("Milkom is light") or Milkom-ʾur ("Milkom's flame"), represents the first-known occurrence in which Milkom, the well-known Ammonite divine name, appears as one of the elements in an Ammonite proper name. According to his title, "servant," this individual would have been a prominent government official in the service of the Ammonite king, Baʿal-yishʿa ("Baal is salvation") or Baʿal-yashaʿ ("Baal saves"). The latter is identified with the Baalis of Jer 40:14, and this reference to him is his first extrabiblical confirmation-despite Wright's (1974:3) claim about "Baʿlay" being on the Tell Siran bottle (a misunderstanding of Cross 1973), misinformation perpetuated by Feinberg (1982:272). (ABD, Baalis) Line 1: [ע]בעלישׁ[לְ] ([l]b'lyš[']) "[Belonging to] Ba'ališ[']" Line 2: מלך (ml/k) "King of" Line 3: ן[נעם]ב (b[n'm]n) "B[nei Ammo]n." "When Jephthah subdued the Ammonites, "he smote them ... as far as Abel-keramim" (Judges 11:33), whose ruins today ... ...
