How do we get the church and leaders to celebrate Passover instead of Easter? We need this change. We've been doing things the pagan way for too long. The same for Christmas as well.
Mark, I hope you will stick around and answer all the contrarians who only come here to argue with and lie to people inside and outside of the church. Because it will never end and you have decided to take this task on. I do hope the genuinely interested far outnumber the trouble makers, but a lot of them show up on Living Church of God's RUclips channel and it is not pretty. And to be prompt to answer someone does not necessarily mean on the RUclips circus. If they are serious they can contact the church through conventional channels like email and get a good, thorough and correct answer. And I am not a Philistine who is too old for current technology. I got my first computer back in 1992, perhaps before you were even born?
Glory to Almighty Creator God!!! Thanks so much for using technology/internet to reach many more than what the church has been spreading the gospel of God's Truth!! Bless you and all his disciples still doing Christ's command spread the Gospel of the Kingdom of God!!
Excellent presentation... An article on this topic in the beyond today magazine that I first read was the first thing that challenged my earlier beliefs I had before I came to know about the United Church of God. Since then, I learnt the truth of the 3 days and 3 nights, and I have never been the same
Jesus is called the lamb of God He was sacrificed like the lambs of passover for sins yet once and for all, He shed His blood for all replacing the yearly passover sacrifice, Jesus left an example for all to keep the passover in a new way this bread is my body the wine is my blood, it was never done away with jews greeks and gentiles kept it well after Jesus ascended
I BELEIVE IN JESUS THE WORD WAS GOD...HIS WORDS BRINGS LIFE IN FULLNESS...I DONT REQUIRE THE DAY OR THE EXACT TIME ..I BELEIVE IN MY LORD OF HOSTS..SO SPEAKER ...FIRST BE THE HEARERS AND DOERS OF GODS WORDS....
Good Today ! __" Jesus the Christ of GOD ", a simple trueth easily found in the early Writtings of the Jewish Be-Livers of the " Way, Trueth, Life ". __humbly, neighbour daniel __p.s. thanks for increasing knowledge in this our troubled time .
Add to Mt 12: 40 (the period of interment) what Mark records in Mk 8;31 (and also Mk 9; 31 & Mk 10: 34) and what John records in Jn 2: 17 to fix the period of death. The seeming time difference between the moment Christ died and the time of his burial can be explained by the fact that he needn't have left the tomb immediately upon resurrection, thus allowing a precise 72 hours for both the time period of his interment and that of his death
because they had to buy the spices and prepare them as the word states they bought and then rested of the Sabbath. They could not buy until Friday as Thursday was a High Holy Day.
This is how that ONE SIGN will be fulfilled. PROPHECY: The SIGN of JONAS Matthew 16:4 KJV A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed. ***When the “two witnesses” are killed, lie on display for 3 days, then ascend to Heaven…. That is the “SIGN of JONAS” being FULFILLED. It marks the END of the 1 st half of Tribulation. In the same hour “Sodom” (Las Vegas) will get a HUGE earthquake killing 7000 Men and destroying 1/10 the city. This earthquake starts the 2 nd half of Tribulation. Below is more Scripture to help. Matthew 12:40 KJV For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whales belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. Luke 11:29 KJV And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet. Enoch (PROPHET) (Watchman for the Last Generation)
While they are preaching Easter they will preach right up to Matthew 27:51 - give an invitation to hurry up and "accept Jesus" and send the kids out to hunt bunny rabbit eggs. Matthew 27:51 - 53 is one complete theme. It cannot be divided. This half-truth resulting from omitting this resurrection has deceived the whole world. Jesus did not rise alone. Many rose with Him. This is obvious when we connect Luke 2:34 and Matthew 27:52-53. Simeon said many would be resurrected and Matthew confirms the resurrection of many in Israel. Does your church have the faith? Jesus asked if He would find it when He comes. If you are not properly teaching Romans 10:9 then you are still in darkness. Jesus rose from out of the Dead. God raised Him from them. Then He raised them as well. To teach anything less is to deny the Redeemer. 2 Peter 2:1.
Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Matthew 26:64 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of Man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought him near before him. Daniel 7:13 Then the High Priest declared "He is guilty of death"
Anyone who claims that Jesus is not the Messiah because they twist the scriptures and deny what All the prophets of old testified about the One who would be sent for All mankind and NOT MANY would come and be resurrected for All mankind and the CLAIM to have READ THE ENTIRE BIBLE with clarity of the dates and times and cultures of the days is a complete hypocrite
This IS sound Doctrine. God says prove all things hold fast what is true.1 Thessalonians 5:21 Don't believe me believe your Bible. Social prophecy is proof of the Bible.
Wrong. Jesus was raised early Sunday. The Jewish day BEGINS AT NIGHTFALL. So Sunday morning starts around 6 or 7 pm on what we would call Saturday evening Also, He had just been resurrected when Mary got there that is why he told her not to touch him as he had not ascended to the Father. Then after he ascended he let people touch him. I believe he was crucified on Wed, but He rose just before dawn on Sunday morning.
Do not be deceived by this old argument. The expression of three days and three nights would have been understood by the Hebrew hearer. It would be a means to emphasize it was part of three days. There are many commentaries that would support this.
I believe Jesus was crucified on Thursday. The day after he was crucified was an annual Sabbath. If he had been crucified on Wednesday, that would have been on Thursday and the women could have gone to the tomb on Friday.. But they couldn't go until Sunday, that means the annual Sabbath was on Friday and Jesus was thus crucified on Thursday. Also note that in the instructions for the Passover, the sacrificial lamb was to be chosen four days prior. Jesus was hailed as the Messiah (chosen) on Palm Sunday, four days before He sacrificed Himself on Thursday. According to Jewish law, He was placed in the tomb before sundown. Thus, He was in the tomb on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and on Thursday night, Friday night, and Saturday night.
The problem with your time frame -- again -- no three 12 hour days and three 12 hour nights. If HE died on Thursday at 3 PM then the can be no 3 days and 3 nights., no 72 hours, Plus the women could not buy or prepare the spices on Thursday as that day was a High Holy Day, they had to wait until Friday to buy and then prepare the spices.
@@user-cv7cw1jm2p Jesus would have been in the tomb while it was still Thursday, so that would have had to have been the first day. I cannot be sure about this,. The women would have had time to buy and prepare the spices on Thursday after Jesus died and before sunset. The Wednesday time may be correct. The issue I see w with that is that we know the women were so eager to get to the tomb that they started as soon as they could on Sunday. So why would they have not gone on Thursday as soon as the spices were prepared? Again, I am struck by the correspondence of the four days between the selection and offering of the Passover Sacrifice and the Sunday - Thursday period, No reason is given for the four-day wait. God has a reason for everything and Passover foreshadows Jesus' death, so it fits and would be another link between the two ,but maybe not. This is interesting, but it is not an important matter of faith and I am not dogmatic. What is important is that prophecy was fulfilled and Jesus died and rose again for our salvation.
This makes the most sense as far as I can tell. However you claim that Jesus rose at sunset (start of the first day) and that would make sense. However you CANNOT PROVE that from the bible. And there are times in the bible where 3 days were only parts of 3 days. I would not at all say that because they believe in Thurs or Friday death of Jesus that they are any less Christian than we are. It's recieving Christ as our savior is what saves us.
Bullinger's reference correctly notes that parts of days do not count as full days when "3 nights" is specified. Jesus said the Bible is truth (John 17:17) and those God chooses to offer salvation to now (John 6:44) must be careful to seek it, prove it, and obey it. Actually, UCG teaches that Jesus rose just before sunset ending the Sabbath day, not later into the Sunday.
Nothing can be more true than this. Well-done.
How do we get the church and leaders to celebrate Passover instead of Easter? We need this change. We've been doing things the pagan way for too long. The same for Christmas as well.
Christians are completely SOAKED in these things. There is no way to get out except through the POWER of God!
We don’t follow Passover because we aren’t Jews. We observe the Lord’s Supper
@@jamesdick8681
Once a year at Passover as Jesus taught.
@@jamesdick8681 I hope you know Jesus and the 12 apostles were jews and they keep Passover and the Sabbath and the 7 Holy Feast of God
Easter is a Pagan holiday. Glad you finally open Comments Like God's word says Be prompt to answer someone!

They can't answer everyone, or they would be chatting until blue in the face probably

@@theresawilliams1323 very true!
I have pondered this for years. Now it makes perfect sense. Thank you for explaining it. I had no idea there were 2 Sabbaths that week.
Glory to Almighty Creator God!!!

the easter tradition seems to make a liar out of Christ.I do not want to observe a holiday that makes or calls Christ a liar.
Jesus is called the lamb of God He was sacrificed like the lambs of passover for sins yet once and for all, He shed His blood for all replacing the yearly passover sacrifice, Jesus left an example for all to keep the passover in a new way this bread is my body the wine is my blood, it was never done away with jews greeks and gentiles kept it well after Jesus ascended
The Friday to Sunday always bothered me I could never figure out how there were three days and 3 nights from Friday to Sunday
It was dark from noon to 3 pm. See Genesis 1:5 as to what that means. That is the missing link to the puzzle.
Christ was crucified on a wednesday
Very good explanation
I LOVE THESE TEACHINGS..THEY 'FEEL' RIGHT...TRUTH
Amen! Thank you.
LOVE these POWERFUL messages!! TRUTH!!!
I believe Jesus, God's son rose from the dead, and now sit's at the Right Hand of God. 🙏 Johnny W. Hampton

Another home run !👍
Why did the women go to the tomb on the first day of the week (Sunday) to anoint the Lord’s body instead of Friday morning?
because they had to buy the spices and prepare them as the word states they bought and then rested of the Sabbath. They could not buy until Friday as Thursday was a High Holy Day.

In answer to your very first question -- YES.
But YOU don't, because you're an "ANHILIATIONIST" !
