The Misunderstanding

Hi TD, you've given whereu some sound advice, me, personally would say he's a believer, but been affected by people such as ourselves always bickering, this alone, the damage that it has caused has been a prime mover of today's atheism
The bickering about the CC is by no means the only factor that led to my atheism, but it was for me the last straw.
To me, denying the celebration of Jesus's birthday on the grounds that it effectively is the worship of Paganism is vile and only worth spitting out.
The celebration of Jesus's birth is recorded in the Bible, which TD claims to be his source of information.
The fuss that he stirs up about marking the Sabbath on a Sunday instead of from Friday evening, when it was changed to Sunday by Peter, who was given authority to do so by Jesus, is not called for and may even be damaging for some seekers.

You are correct in wanting to follow Jesus fully, but you’re keeping yourself from doing just that, when you keep away from the Eucharist, as this is where He’s physically found today, the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, truly present under the appearances of bread and wine, Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ
For me, keeping away from the Eucharist is denying Jesus. He put in place what is today known as a sacrament with the words "this is my body and this is my blood", which means a deep relationship between himself and humanity.

I don't think that you should be concerned with @The Disciple… I think he is in the process of seeking, even if that process is in your face. I think he has chosen HC as a vehicle for this process, even if it's not that obvious.

It would appear, some faiths original mission, was to find what they feel is a couple of Key points, and cling to that like it's the be all to end all, and to show "WE" are the ONES LOL.

JW's for example, the name of God, but at the same time there, regardless as to how you pronounce it, is was supposed to be for all time.
So the mystery is, 'said' scholars ignore a clear message???

The likes of Angus's Key theme, there MUST be a pre-existing literal Son to send = no passage says such.
A human sacrifice, apparently not good enough, but the Bible no where mentions such a creation????? lol.
But the Bible is clear, He became the Begotten Son at the Baptism and was then sent Gal 4:4 and His defining timeline John 17:18 = Compares His sending, exactly as He sent others into the world..and they didn't come floating down out of the sky LOL.

Penny for your thoughts on a passage.
When the Son comes, every eye will see = I believe it should be perceive, to the extent, that it's = to, or more than seeing, via the Spirit, as in a Download type thing.
Now it says they will mourn, as it appears, the penny will drop.
So, the question is, why would a non follower mourn?
Most it would seem, claim they mourn because they miss out - But it doesn't say that = adding.
So, if one is going to add ----- one could say, perhaps it means a big turn around???
...............
I could be wrong even thinking such, but perhaps, regardless of the differing Christian followings, so long as you believe the key core basics, you get through the door, so to speak???
And then it may just come down to ones position on the ladder, so to speak.

As in rewards, one example, many may end up with Nye Nye's, for the 1,000 year period, and then wakies lol, at the end of that, which would still account for the numbers, that cannot be counted?
Many claim after the 1,000, it's doom for all those raised at that time - Not what the Bible says.

The mysteries abound, and it's not just with the Bible, but the creations people do with many passages, very creative indeed LOL.
