Pagan usage in Christianity: The True Sabbath New Testament proof continuation of Part 5

The Sabbath like we have said before has never been abolished by Jesus Christ throughout the New Testament. Rather the scriptures prove that he kept the Commandment Sabbath. The Sabbath remains and we were only taught to do good on the Sabbath day. He did not say Sunday. Also Jesus’ resurrection did not change the Sabbath, it only magnified the Sabbath.

The four kinds of love

What a power is love! It is the most wonderful, the greatest of all living powers.
Love gives life to the lifeless. Love lights a flame in the heart that is cold. Love brings hope to the hopeless and gladdens the hearts of the sorrowful.
In the world of existence there is indeed no greater power than the power of love. When the heart of man is aglow with the flame of love, he is ready to sacrifice all -- even his life. In the Gospel it is said God is love.

Pagan Usage in Christianity:
The True Sabbath New Testament Proof Part 5

This week we will continue from where we stopped in last weekend’s article. Exodus 31: 16 proves that the Sabbath is a perpetual covenant between God and the Jews throughout their generations. It reads “Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations for a perpetual covenant.” God made this covenant with the Jews because they are his chosen people. Now does that mean that God has no dealings with people belonging to other nations?

A GOOD QUESTION FOR THE MUSLIMS Continued from last weekend

As already mentioned, no calculated account is available for “Jesus’” twenty-seven years of existence, before his ascension at age of thirty. He left behind no written manuscripts of his Gospel with his disciples who were with him during the three-years of his career. The twenty-seven books that make up the New Testament were written no less than 60 years after “Jesus” ascension. In one of those books (John 16: 1-4), tells that “Jesus” warned his disciples of the persecution and fight-down that awaited them – imposters infiltrating propagated things, which he did not teach.

The Progress Of The Soul

‘Does the soul progress more through sorrow or through the joy in this world?’
‘Abdu’l-Bahá. -- ‘The mind and spirit of man advance when he is tried by suffering. The more the ground is ploughed the better the seed will grow, the better the harvest will be. Just as the plough furrows the earth deeply, purifying it of weeds and thistles, so suffering and tribulation free man from the petty affairs of this worldly life until he arrives at a state of complete detachment. His attitude in this world will be that of divine happiness. Man is, so to speak, unripe: the heat of the fire of suffering will mature him. Look back to the times past and you will find that the greatest men have suffered most.’
