The Gospel of Luke [The Alternative Facts gospel]

Riiiiiiiiiight

Is your authority on the faith the Oxford dictionary? Or is it the scriptures, the apostolic tradition, and your hierarchical authorities in the Church?

This highlights a problem with the notion that the bible is the complete and infallible word of God. As any detective will tell you, witness statements are unreliable. If you ask ten different people about an event they just witnessed, you'll get ten different versions of that event. The gospels are witness statements, and as such, they contain contradictions. However, the Christian church is handcuffed by their idolatrous view that the bible is infallible and so they have to bury their head in the sand whenever a contradiction is pointed out.

Luke wasn't trying to write a better gospel or fix problems with the existing gospels, he was writing down the witness statement of Peter.

How do we know you aren't claiming Saturday is the Sabbath because you've gone retarded from veganism? 7th Day Adventists are vegan and veganism has been shown to cause mental retardation.

No, that was Mark. Luke was a disciple of Paul and used a bunch of sources in and around Jerusalem including the Blessed Virgin Mary herself.

Check out tektontv (J.P. Holding on youtube). He's done a lot of videos refuting this guy.

I have faith that Oxford is an expert in the English language, more so than some user on a latin waffer making forum.

"The Lord's Day" = The Sabbath Day

It isn't hard to figure it out. Just because the word Sabbath scares you, doesn't make it bad.

I'm not a Protestant. It is actually 7th-day Adventists who claim that we moved the Sabbath to Sunday, in case you did not know.


That you say that my claim that the Sabbath is on Saturday, the Day of the Lord is on Sunday, and they are two different things, is just a random user's claim online, makes me seriously, seriously doubt that you know anything about Christianity. Are you Catholic? Protestant? Orthodox?
As to what kind of stupid crap Anglophone Christianity has come up with, I don't care. I can understand something like Passover being renamed to Easter, it doesn't change a whole lot since the Christian Passover is not the Jewish Passover. But to simply conflate two distinct holy days? What saint, what council, what scriptures say that the Sabbath is on Sunday, or that the Day of the Lord is the Sabbath? Can you cite a more religious source than the Oxford dictionary?

"Sabbath" does not "scare" me. The Sabbath is a holy day, although not the day we are bound to commemorate anymore as Christians. To say that the Sabbath and the Day of the Lord are one and the same thing is an insult to both, and therefore an insult to the whole faith.

This idea comes from the epistle of Barnabas which, if I remember correctly, was speaking against the Jewish sabbath.

This idea comes from the Apostles. And yes, we do not honor the 7th day, but rather the superior and final 8th day. Sabbath is still on Saturday, and we do not honor it like the Jews do, but we honor Sunday, the Day of the Lord. To say Sabbath is on Sunday is against the Bible, against the apostolic tradition, and against our current practice as well - as we still consider the Sabbath a holy day, even if the commandment isn't to honor it, and therefore we do not fast on that day and we pray for the dead. And in Greece, Saturday is literally called the Sabbath and Sunday the Day of the Lord…
