Twisting scripture? This is why I said I was done with this thread.
You do not actually interact with points raised and explanations offered that are contrary to your own view. Instead you dismiss them, repeat your unfounded and unproven assertions as if simply asserting a thing is proof enough, introduce new "proof texts" in an effort to hurry along and then pretend none of your points are being answered. Like I said this is just going in circles. You have failed to actually rebut anything except by claiming my points are in error, without actually demonstrating (assertion alone is not demonstration or proof). Case in point the Galatian heretical calendar. I pointed out it is a PAGAN calendar and why, I believe I even included a link to an article which more fully deals with that very topic, and your response was to simply to repeat your claim without interacting with the evidence itself.
lol
More importantly I have pointed out the underlying premise and conclusion of your antinomian view: ANY argument you make against the fourth commandment applies equally against all the other commandments, and for exactly the same reasons.
One other thing: you accuse me of "avoiding verses" when I did in fact DIRECTLY address not only the specific verses you say I ignored, but YOU have in fact cut your citations short and ignored parallel passages to avoid the gaping holes in your case, as in your "to the Jew I became as a Jew" quote. What does the passage go on to say?
1Cor 9:22
To them that are without law, as without law,
(being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
My premise is very simple: sabbath breaking is a sin, because sin is the transgression of the law, and being under grace is not to be construed as permission to transgress, as Paul plainly taught and as I plainly proved. There is not one verse in all the Bible where Jesus said "the sabbath is abolished, repealed, done away with" nor did any apostle teach likewise. The only argument possible against the fourth commandment is that the law has been abolished which Jesus specifically warned us not to think is the case! And that argument will render EVERY COMMAND OF GOD invalid, making idolatry, adultery, murder etc as passe as sabbath-keeping supposedly is. THAT IS THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM YOU AND CERTAIN OTHERS CONTINUOUSLY AVOID.
Furthermore I have supplied proof that sabbath keeping was believed and adhered to for centuries until the rise of catholicism tried to stamp it out. Them's the facts of history (a subject you always seem to want to dismiss).
Anyway, there it is, everybody make of it what they will.
