Re: Christians and Trans
Trans people are mentally ill. Mentally ill people are much more delicate and prone to things like suicide. I think they are to be handled with a soft type of compassion. They, much like gay and lesbian people identify as their sin rather recognizing the choice they have so any attempt to be straigh...

Re: Evil and Violence
But some of the things you state are so far off from what CA’s believe, do and are about that you have convinced me (and some others it seems) that you don’t have a close idea in reality what Conservative Anabaptists are about, or what you call CA’s is drastically different than what others do.

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper
My God, just when I thought JudMac could not possibly lose more credibility he quotes Jack Chick. I do not understand the confusion of the other posts. Maybe I am missing something. Catholics are required to attend Mass on Sunday (or the Sat night vigil mass) and holy days of obligation which vary ...

Re: Government!
The founders of the US were corrupt in themselves using rebellion and war to achieve power. Not Christlike. I would say it has always been corrupt, not different than any other civil government. I do believe it is a necessary evil as well that God allows and even ordains in a fallen world but someth...

Re: "Good Friday" and Matthew 12:40
So, if I understand correctly we do agree? The Jews viewed the start of a new day as soon as the sun went down so Sunday morning to them would have been what we call Saturday evening. I don’t see us disagreeing with you if this is what you mean?

Re: Ethnicity and the Resurrection
There is only one race; Acts 17:26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; And if anyone is concerned about ethnicity, then it falls under the category of genealogies;...

Re: Keys to Peace of Mind ?
I think Philippians 4 as quoted is as much possible to us as we follow Christ in Philippians 2: Philippians 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Philippians 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, an...

Re: "Good Friday" and Matthew 12:40
It does bring another question…
Where does the scripture say Pentecost was fifty days after Christ’s resurrection?
That might help clear things?

Re: "Good Friday" and Matthew 12:40
But what does Sabbath mean? If it automatically means Saturday - I think that misses the whole point. If it brings a focus on God and resting from our own work it makes more sense. Hebrews 4:8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. But then again Ch...

Re: "Good Friday" and Matthew 12:40
Did the disciples believe the first day of the week was right for worship? I think so. Why would they do that? Acts 20:7 And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnigh...
