You’re absolutely right SkyDancer, it’s BC (Before Christ). Another attempt at political correctness-type censorship.
So accordingly the Christian Era is over??? ACE??? Thought it was CE ... the Current Era which is the Christian Era ...
BCE has been in used for a while in the Jewish community, but it’s the Jehovah Witness’ that started the main trend back in the 60’s...magritte
Exactly.
I mean, the days of the week are still as they are:
Sunday - Suns Day
Monday - Moons Day
Tuesday - Tiws Day (Norse god of combat)
Wednesday - Wodens Day (Norse god of souls)
Thursday - Thors Day (Norse god of thunder)
Friday - Fríges Day (Norse goddess of love)
Saturday - Saturns Day (Roman god of harvest)
Agreed, and I’m familiar with that verse, but I have pondered what “change the times” exactly mean. In my youth I always thought it was the seasons. And I’ve never quite understood why the Lord would give that authority to him to begin with, but I guess if youre going to clean house anyway, why not?
I agree with you on the BCE etc. stuff. Dumb in my estimation.
But AD means In the day of YHvH.
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
make them really mad by referring to BCE as:
before Christian era
The agreed upon protocol in Archeology is: CE & BCE.shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
I believe there is only ONE G-d and His NAME is YHvH. how many gods do you believe in ?
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
Deu 6:4 "Hear, O Israel! YHvH is our God, YHvH is one!
Peter tells us through the writings of his amanuensis that
Yah'shua repeats it for those who are "grafted in" Mar 12:29 Jesus answered, ... 'HEAR, O ISRAEL! YHvH OUR GOD IS ONE YHvH;
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God...And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:1,2,14.
That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. I John 1:3.
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit you at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool. Psalm 110:1
I think youre Jewish but I also thought you were a believer that embraces the New Testament of the blood of Christ. Was I mistaken?
Facts of the age we're living in bear this out. Much of the "Church" denies Christ and the age as a whole has basically rejected the claims of Christ and the Bible. This is the first and only age to do so since Christ.
This is also the last age before the Day of the Lord, the Tribulation, and the setting up of Christ's rule on earth.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God...And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:1,2,14.

It is blasphemous on it's face as YHvH (Lord) is the creator of the universe YHvH took on a suit of flesh to tabernacle with His people in 3 BCE There is only ONE YHvH. Yah'shua is quoted by Peter as captured by Mark his amanuensis citing NAU Deuteronomy 6:4 "Hear, O Israel! YHvH is our God, YHvH is one! BCE/CE is the accepted protocol for dates in Archeology. Shabbat Shalom ! BC/AD is a relic of the Pagan Roman "church"
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
and He was not born in 3 BCE. NAU John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt(tabernacled) among us,
at His commanded Feast of Tabernacles. 29 Jesus answered, 'HEAR, O ISRAEL! YHvH OUR GOD IS ONE YHvH
It is used to facilitate communication not to echo the Roman "church"
Nah, BC and AD are acceptable except to cultural progressives who are anti Christian.
Even Jews accepts the importance of Christ in time and history, they just missed the coming of the Messiah.
Shabbat Shalom ! BC/AD has everything to do with the earthly power of the Roman "church"
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
BC and AD have everything to do with the power of Jesus Christ and his impact on the world. Thus his name is used to divide THE most important Eras in history. “Before Christ” and “In the Year of Our Lord Jesus Christ”.
And it was most assuredly not at christmas. If YHvH were in it,
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
I can assure you that it would not have been 3 BCE.
Uriel, it seems that you don’t believe in the Trinity: one God in the three persons of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. To help me understand your point of reference, again I ask, have you received Jesus Christ as you personal Savior and Messiah?
