Whose Thanksgiving Bible...Hebrews Or Christians?

That means you have a lot of loved ones gathered around--a blessing! No turkeys here, we're going mid-state to my in laws. I'm dessert crew. Pies done!


Sis is an editor at one of the big foodie publications....she's doing sides.

We are on two sides of the political divide, so no arguments are allowed.

All in all....we all look forward to it. I posted pics of one of our dinners, with Thanksgiving Kimchee.

Lately, I have been using the Jerusalem Bible but I collect all different types of Bibles and dictionaries. LOL, I love them and the interpretations. I like to meditate or pray about what others thought the stories mean and God guides the way in my heart and thought from there.

I like folks who read.
Have a great Thanksgiving.
 
7. Perhaps the author should have mentioned The Old Testament laws remain in effect…as per Matthew 5:18, the eighteenth verse of the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament and is part of the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus has just reported that he came not to destroy the law, but fulfil it. In this verse this claim is reinforced.



Matthew 5:17–18 is a key text for interpreting the Sermon on the Mount and the entire gospel of Matthew:

Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished.

Here Jesus says that not one iota (jot) or dot (tittle) will pass away from the law. These most likely refer to the smallest strokes of the Hebrew alphabet, indicating that the Old Testament is completely trustworthy, even to the smallest detail. This is consistent with Jesus’ attitude elsewhere. Never do we find Jesus disagreeing with Scripture.



It is the Bible….Old and New Testaments that inveigh against the Marxist/Progressive/Democrat worship of government.


And, no......there is no endorsement of socialism in the Bible.
 
Actually not, though you can believe whatever you wish. Archeologists have found homes of Jews in Palestine with shrines to Yahweh and to other gods. When Moses was on the Mount and the Hebrews had a crisis of faith they didn't become atheists they turned to other gods they thought more powerful.

:rofl:

The Old Testament is full of stories of the Israelites engaging in idolatry, the worship of false gods.

I'm only saying that move took a very long time.

You are not well versed in the subject, not at all.

That is human nature. Every religion had it's gods and Demi-gods. Christianity has angels.

You appear to have absolutely no knowledge of the subject at hand.

True. Seems to me if you believed in many gods, like the Israelites did, you would turn to another if you thought yours had let you down. If you believed in only one God why would you think an idol had any power?

Saying I'm wrong is easy but not very convincing. Show me I'm wrong and I'll be convinced. I'm betting you can't because, unlike me, you have only faith, not facts to back you up.

Did you light a candle to Beelzebub today???

Sacrifice any infants???

No??? What kind of Democrat are you????
 
The Founders of this nation understood the interrelationship between Jews and Christians.


8. “President George Washington, in his First Thanksgiving Proclamation, declared, "Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor ... I do recommend and assign [this Thanksgiving Day] to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be."
Thus, Out of Small Beginnings...


9. “From George Washington to the Hebrew Congregation in Newport, Rhode Island, 18 August 1790

May the Children of the Stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other Inhabitants; while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and figtree, and there shall be none to make him afraid. May the father of all mercies scatter light and not darkness in our paths, and make us all in our several vocations useful here, and in his own due time and way everlastingly happy.
Go: Washington”

Apparently unlike any you've ever met. Curiously, all the Dems I know are smart, educated, successful, and compassionate. You need to adjourn your home school and see more of the world. After the turkey (or whatever your traditions) of course.

But you're a government school grad who doesn't read books.....

Yup....a Democrat.
 
The gov't schools here don't even have books. They've gone digit. You really should join the rest of us in the 21st century.
"... don't even have books...."

Quite an inducement for Democrats, huh?


One more test, just to prove you're a true Democrat: knowing what we now know about Democrat's "achievements" since stealing the election.....

.....still copacetic with your vote????

Seems you need a few minutes to mull (I almost said 'think') it over, huh?

Still happy I didn't vote for Trump.

- Highest crime rates in decades - which of Biden's policies led to that?
- Afghanistan taken by Taliban - after it was given to them by Trump
- Crippling debt and inflation - Biden screwed it up
- CDC discredited - discredited by the Right, respected by Biden.
- DOJ fully weaponized - By Trump, just ask Jeff Sessions
- Border crisis - There was a crisis under Trump too.
- No longer energy independent - which of Biden's policies led to that?

If it was raining soup you'd be standing outside with a fork.
