Look in a mirror Nancy. You fly on one wing all the time.

PS I responded to the first post before I read your second. I agree that the poking at each other is pointless and does not please the Lord. My belief that you post a lot of error will not change but our attitude about it does not have to be antagonistic. We both earnestly desire to know the truth, you as well as me. The Lord will judge the motives and intent of the heart. I believe we both stand approved before the Lord in His mercy. We don't have to be doctrinally pure and correct to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I just believe in these last days we will suffer less if we can discern the signs of the times, listen to the Holy Spirit, and avoid the pitfalls of being snared in any of the devil's traps.
It is intersting that there is a Temple and Ark in heaven. So little is said about it, it is hard to make any conclusions. It is logical to me that during the time of the practicing of the law in the Temple in Israel that the earthly Ark and Temple were a representation (extention, earthly branch office) of the Temple in Heaven which already existed before the earthly Temple was constructed. I believe that when Jesus died on the cross and the veil of the earthly Temple was torn from top to bottom that signified God closing the earthly branch office in favor of the perfect way, His Son Jesus Christ. The old was not perfect and the new is. The old could save no one but in the new everyone has freedom from sin and death. You are under grace, if you keep festvals and events in the law that's your business. As long as you put absolutely no faith in those practices for your salvation they will not harm you. But Paul wrote don't let your faith that you can do those things cause your brother to stumble because he then believes they have some benefit to his salvation. It would be better for you to not practice them than to cause your brother to stumble. Or do it privately and not talk about it so that what you do talk about is grace and Jesus Christ not any keeping of the law. For if your brother seeing you keep any law or festval then believes he should keep them or that they have any benefit to his salvation you have caused him to stumble by placing a ritual between him and Jesus. I hope that is all clear to you what my concern is.

In Jesus,

Bob
