Do what now?
What you typed does not make any sense.
It’s hard to guess at what you were trying to say.
This guy is simply a First day Adventist. Good for him! He don’t buy that idiotic theology of today that does away with the 10 commandments. Sin is defined as “transgression of the law”....he knows what sin is. This guy is my new hero! A man with conviction! So rare these days. Protestants used to believe what this guy believes.
Today’s evangelicals are weak, shallow, will buy what their pastor teaches and all because the pastor hates the Sabbath. This guy must have read what John Wesley said about the 10 commandments......
Oh man this is so timely here! He makes you all look so weak and stupid frankly to believe the 10 commandments can be changed or are “jewish.”
It’s the Sabbath you hate. Football on Sunday, shopping on Sunday, Golf maybe.....you don’t even keep Sunday! Love this guy.
John Wesley on the Sabbath too:
This ‘handwriting of ordinances’ our Lord did blot out, take away, and nail to His cross. (Colossians 2: 14.) But the moral law contained in the Ten Commandments, and enforced by the prophets, He did not take away.... The moral law stands on an entirely different foundation from the ceremonial or ritual law. ...Every part of this law must remain in force upon all mankind and in all ages.
—JOHN WESLEY, Sermons on Several Occasions, 2-Vol. Edition, Vol. I, pages 221, 222.
Christ Jesus stated (paraphrasing) that He did not come to refute or oppose the Old Testament. He came in fulfillment of the Old Testament. The Old Testament is the word of God Almighty. The Holy Father to whom Christ Jesus prayed while here on earth in the flesh.
>>>Can you translate that into the common English vernacular?>>>>
Yeah, unlike most here who think the 10 commandments were nailed to the cross, here’s a guy who doesn’t fall for that lie. And he’s willing to lose a job for his conviction to keep the Sabbath which is for him......Sunday. I admire that. So rare.
He keeps the wrong day, but good for him, he’s showing conviction. Read the comments here, these, today’s evangelicals keep no day because they think the 10 commandmets were nailed to the cross. LOL....yeah, until I steal their car.
This guy keeps the Sabbath the way Protestants used to keep it and I respect that. Problem is you can’t find any protestants today who even keep Sunday. They have talked themselves out of the 10 commandmants all because of the Sabbath! funny, they ain’t kiddin anyone.
I’ts not the law they hate.....just the Sabbath. They got laws against abortion, Homosexuality, etc. They are picky choosey on their laws.......this guy isn’t! Good for him! I think God honors his conviction at this time too.
I think he’s saying the Sabbath use to be observed and honored…….
…in the South we had Blue Laws and liquor wasn’t sold and stores were closed, etc
Maybe he should refuse to deliver pork or shrimp.
>>>Christ Jesus stated (paraphrasing) that He did not come to refute or oppose the Old Testament. He came in fulfillment of the Old Testament. The Old Testament is the word of God Almighty. The Holy Father to whom Christ Jesus prayed while here on earth in the flesh.>>>>
What this guy who keeps the 10 commandments, including Sunday as the Sabbath? Isn’t that awesome! LOL.....he don’t buy that twisted theology of yours.
>>>Maybe he should refuse to deliver pork or shrimp.>>>
ahahaha....now your mocking a guy who got the US Supreme Court to uphold the 10 commandments. LOL....u funny.
The Postal worker just out Christianed everyone on FR who has a different religious belief in the opinion of vespa300.
IN YOUR FACE!
That is what he or she said.
Not sure that is a very Christian attitude.

Yeah, Protestants used to keep Sunday as the Lord’s day and you are right....there were even Blue’s laws. Today’s evangelicals with their twisted theology have managed to talk themselves out of the 10 commandments.
I admire and respect this guy. Good for him! He’s a first day Adventist.

Ahahaha.....I love this guy who still believes in the 10 commandmment. Don’t you just love it! Wow!!!
But, am I? Really?
>>>But, am I? Really?>>>
I love this guy. He kinda told those who think the 10 commandments were nailed to the cross what time it is. He actually still believes in the 10 commandments...as in ALL 10.
Imagine that? I didn’t think there were any evangelicals who kept Sunday anymore. I’d be kind of embarrassed if I was one of those who’s twisted theology says the 10 commandments are done away with.
This guy is a throwback. Hard to find. Rare. Like back to the John Wesley type of Christian. John Wesley is a hero to Seventh day Adventists.....a Protestant who said this about the 10 commandments which today’s evangelicals have talked themselves out of just because of the Sabbath!
This is pure gold:
This ‘handwriting of ordinances’ our Lord did blot out, take away, and nail to His cross. (Colossians 2: 14.) But the moral law contained in the Ten Commandments, and enforced by the prophets, He did not take away.... The moral law stands on an entirely different foundation from the ceremonial or ritual law. ...Every part of this law must remain in force upon all mankind and in all ages.

Whoa buddy, step away from the bottle
Yeah, the Pharisees were after Jesus for breaking the Sabbath and healing people and gleaning wheat and eating it on the Sabbath.......Oh...Wait, Um....Hm.
I really didn’t think he would win.
