Deceitful souls!
Re: Understanding Colossians 2
#3 To Don (#2)
you refuse to learn the truth
No, otherwise I would still be a Protestant. It is Roman Catholics and Protestants, stuck in the muck of Babylon, who refuse to let the plain truth set them free. I can see clearly now, having dealt with so many Christian reprobates, "Christians" in denial, it's due to their traditional dishonesty with the Word of God, themselves and others, preferring idolatrous traditions and traditional darkness to the light, condemning themselves. Such drunks and whores, deceitful souls, have been warned and are left without excuse.

Do you know who the Two Witnesses are?
Re: Philadelphia Church of God Leads Laodicean Era (Conclusion)
When you see two men in Jerusalem wearing sackcloth and performing all sorts of miracles, and yet are absolutely HATED by the world for what they're saying, you'll know they're the ones prophesied.
The Two Witnesses of Revelation 11
The Two Witnesses of Revelation 11. Who are these two prophets? What do they have to say? Why are they called the two witnesses? How will their message be proclaimed? And is there any special significance to the fact that they're headquartered in Jerusalem?
Two Witnesses to Testify in Jerusalem Against Europe
Two controversial figures, referred to in the Book of Revelation as two witnesses, two olive trees, two candlesticks and two prophets, will boldly declare GOD'S JUDGMENTS and proclaim the LORD'S CONTROVERSY (Micah 3:8; 6:1-2), delivering a BLISTERING MESSAGE and a SCORCHING CONDEMNATION -- just before NUCLEAR FIRE AND BRIMSTONE RAINS DOWN upon those who've rejected GOD'S ULTIMATUM (Isaiah 41:27; 30:27).
Will the Church of God Welcome the Two Witnesses?
The Work of God Must Go Forward!
I took particular notice of the last paragraph about the two witnesses who you say are soon to take the stand. There seem to be a lot of people who know about these two. I have recently seen a few people saying something similar. It's almost as if something is in the air. How did you find this information out?? Do you know who they are? Could you point to where I can contact them? - Paul Lambert

The New Covenant: Does It Abolish God's Law?
From the publisher of The Good News magazine.
Introduction
"This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds" (Hebrews 10:16, New Revised Standard Version).
Does the New Covenant negate God's law and do away with any need to obey the Ten Commandments and other laws of God?
The belief that it does has long been a popular teaching in traditional Christianity. We'll thoroughly examine this question in this booklet.
Even more important, we'll address the real purpose of God's biblical covenants—more than one—and their vital role in the Creator's overall plan for mankind. It's highly important that we understand their true meaning.
How many people even know that the structure of the Bible is organized around a series of divine covenants—what we might call contracts or agreements—that reveal and describe the relationship God would like to have with every human being?
These covenants reveal God's promises. They also define the conditions that every person must meet to receive the blessings of those promises. God's covenants are the foundation of His divine plan to properly shape the way all people should think and behave.
God has a specific goal in mind. The final result of His plan is a divine family of sons and daughters who have developed the same righteous character that was evident in Jesus Christ when He was with mankind as a human being.
That character can be created only through an interactive process that takes place between each individual and God. It is a very personal process.
Why freedom of choice?
To make it possible for us to build that divine, holy and righteous character, God gives us freedom of choice. By giving us the liberty to make choices, He allows us to learn by our own experiences that we, with our limited abilities, cannot foresee all of the hurtful consequences that wrong choices produce. Only by relying on God's guidance will we learn how to avoid making bad choices.
Making wrong choices began with our very first human parents, Adam and Eve. They had to choose between two critical options.
They could allow God to fully guide their thinking and their way of life, or they could experiment and try to discern the best way to live by their own experiences.
They chose to learn by personal experience instead of fully putting their trust in God's instruction, guidance and help. All of mankind has followed that same path, reaping the same sad results.
God's covenants reveal His plan to reverse that dangerous pattern of harmful choices. In these covenants, He promises His divine help and blessing to those who turn to Him with their whole heart for the guidance and help they need.
Some of the blessings He gives for accepting His guidance and help are spiritual, offering us eternal benefits. Others are physical, designed to bless us in this temporary, physical life.
Why was the promise of a new heart so necessary?
God's latest and most important covenant revealed in the Bible is centered on His promise—His unwavering commitment—to create a new heart in those who unconditionally turn to Him for help.
Why is divine intervention essential in receiving that change of heart? It's really very simple. We were created incomplete!
God indeed made human beings with an amazing ability to think creatively—with an intellectual capability that far exceeds the creativity of any other physical creature. The unique talent He has given to us to design and produce what we imagine is patterned after His own astounding creative capacity (Genesis 1:27).
But there remains a missing dimension in our thinking, a dimension that needs to be added so we can properly control our thoughts and the actions they produce. The Bible reveals that God is committed to creating in us that additional ability.
He promises to give us the knowledge, understanding and the power to rightly manage how we think, feel and behave—if we choose, willingly and sincerely, to give Him our full cooperation. We desperately need that added ability! The sad record of human history shows that we cannot consistently make right choices or maintain right attitudes without God's divine help.
Instead, each of us naturally weaves his own web of thoughts and patterns of behavior into a conflicting mixture of good and evil. Not everything we think and do is wrong. But neither is it always right. Like Adam and Eve, we reap the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil.
Whether our life will be only physical and temporary or will last forever depends on whether we allow our Creator to actively change our hearts and minds.
As He told the people of ancient Israel: "I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice" (Deuteronomy 30:19-20, emphasis added throughout).
From the beginning God has wanted all human beings to walk the path that leads to eternal life. Yet only one person has ever heeded His voice completely and walked that path perfectly—Jesus Christ!
All the rest of us have fallen short (Romans 3:23).
At His crucifixion, Jesus, through His death, implemented the New Covenant. This is why, on the evening before He was crucified, Jesus "took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is [figuratively speaking] the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you'" (Luke 22 :20).
In that new covenant God gathers together all of the carefully planned details of His plan of salvation. To benefit from that wonderful plan, it is essential that we correctly understand the meaning and purpose of the New Covenant that Christ implemented. Far too many people still misapply or distort what the Bible actually says about that New Covenant. Let's now unravel those distortions.

Colossians
Understanding Colossians 2
Colossians 2
16 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase that is from God.
20 Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations— 21 “Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,” 22 which all concern things which perish with the using—according to the commandments and doctrines of MEN? 23 These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh. [emphasis mine]
Those who rightly divide the Word, who submit to the plain truth of the Bible, know that Colossians was speaking of both pagan Gentile and strict Jewish criticism of the Church of God for keeping the biblical Sabbath and biblical festivals in spirit and in truth.
I encourage those who are interested in what the Bible really teaches, and who love the plain truth more than the idolatrous traditions of apostate Christians, to check out:
Colossians 2:16-17 by Larry J. Walker
Colossians 2:16-17: Are God's Laws Obsolete?
Colossians 2:16 Shows Gentile Christians Kept the Holy Days
Furthermore, it is making reference to the commandments and doctrines of MEN - not the dietary laws of God! How do so many manage to read right over that? They're wearing traditional blinders!

House of the God of Jacob
The God of Jacob
All nations must learn about the God of JACOB [not Esau or Ishmael] or they'll become history.
Isaiah 2:3
And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the [Temple] mountain of the LORD, to the [temple] house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law [it wasn't done away], and the word of the LORD [not allah] from Jerusalem [not Rome or Mecca or Medina].
Here's a wonderful description of how the God of Jacob works and how He teaches the nations:
Zechariah 14
16 And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles [not pagan Christmas or pagan Easter that apostate Christians observe or Ramadan]. 17 And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, on them there will be no rain. 18 If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which the LORD strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.
Traditional Christians, counterfeit Christianity, reprobate Christians, must repent of their accursed replacement theology that cheaply substitutes Sunday for Sabbath and pagan holidays for biblical festivals.
Plea to Protestants and Catholics to Repent!
