No. When the Julian calendar went to Gregorian YOU lost 10 days. Sorry, It is simple math. They SKIPPED ten days. What it means? You are no longer able,capable of following a Sabbath as any specific day. FACT. You don't GET to assert otherwise. Are Seventh Day Adventists only people who cannot do math properly? Okay, find people who cannot do mathematics and dupe them. Does that sound holy or above board to you? Does it sound like it champions the Savior? :think: You've really got to do some serious introspectiion, it is wrong to pass along a lie, even if you yourself are duped by it. This is a lie, specifically because it is very poor math.
Look, whether you do this on purpose, or because you aren't good at math, continuing a lie, is wrong, and evil if done on purpose. Such CANNOT honor our Lord Jesus Christ :nono: It CAN'T. Its a lie. 10 days, Don't be that person. It is wrong to pass along a lie, false information.
. Show me. Show me where 10 days 'can possibly' be shoved into a week. It cannot be done. The loss of ten days forced the Sabbath day, whatever that was, to jump. Does the Pope have godly authority to make 10 days become 7? He did, but from God? For observation of a sacred day? The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath. ANY attempt to make man 'for the Sabbath' is bondage. Israel was bound to it. For us, 'rest' is in Christ. Galatians 1 warns STRONGLY against Judaizing Judaizers. I'm sorry, the Bible tells me to strongly warned about those pushing Judaism. Whether you know it or not, you are Judaizing, worse? Against good mathematics. Its an insult upon and insult.
No dice. You don't even seem to realize the Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath. Worse? If you cannot do basic math, I cannot trust you to do scriptures well either. Show your scriptures, don't mindlessly assert here. "...deny the scriptures..." without even mentioning the scriptures yourself here? No dice. You are asserting and compensating for something.
Hebrews 4:
9There remains, then, a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
10For whoever enters God’s rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from His.
11Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same pattern of disobedience.
Acts 15:7After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe.
8 God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us.
9 He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith.
10 Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear?
11 No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”
19 “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God.
20 Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood.
Mark 2:27 Then Jesus declared, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 28Therefore, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
Now, dear Ang, how well do you know your bible? Read this: Romans 14:5 One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind. 6 Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. 8 If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.

You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. 11 It is written:
“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will acknowledge God.’” 12 So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.
13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.
You and I WILL stand before God for our assertions. Does your's make mathematical sense? :nono: Does it transgress this command (yes it does).
Nope, that has a backhanded slap. "You can go your own way, but you'll be cursed for it."
lain: You are slave-master with a message of slavery to a really mathematically bad idea. You just told me that I'm NOT really free to believe as I wish
lain:
Simply read our Lord God, again:
Romans 14:10
You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. 13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.
There was nothing wrong with the Sabbath or any other command to Israel in the Old Testament BUT
Hebrews 8:8b Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will establish a
new covenant...
Hebrews 8:10 I will put my laws into their minds,
and write them on their hearts,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
11
And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor
and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
for they shall all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest.
12
For I will be merciful toward their iniquities,
and I will remember their sins no more.”1 They shall not teach, each one his neighbor and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest.
If you are under an old covenant with external (laws, rules) motivators, it is worse than one that teaches internally with Christ living in you.
Hebrews 8:
13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
It is already passed away at this time, ang. The new is FAR better than the old which is ALREADY passed away. Scripture says so. Even a Seventh Day Adventist Jew must succumb to the new covenant, Jesus in you, the hope of Glory. Colossians 1:27 Don't just know the Jewish parts, Ang, know all of the Bible. Don't let anyone cloud your thinking from the whole of it.
WE will stand before the judgement seat. Make sure you aren't the one duped before it happens, even if ignorant, it is a problem and we are accountable. The math, I know for fact, is wrong. I will stand before Him accountable for basic math. -Lon
