Why the Sabbath (Saturday) to the Lord's Day (Sunday)?

Why the Sabbath (Saturday) to the Lord's Day (Sunday)?

Apostle John himself and his disciple Bishop Ignatius said so:

Revelation 1:10 Living Bible (TLB)

10 It was the Lord’s Day (Sunday) and I was worshiping, when suddenly I heard a loud voice behind me, a voice that sounded like a trumpet blast,

Bishop Ignatius of Antioch, Letter to the Magnesians 8 [A.D. 110]:

"Those who were brought up in the ancient order of things [i.e. Jews] have come to the possession of a new hope, no longer observing the Sabbath (Saturday), but living in the observance of the Lord’s day (Sunday), on which also our life has sprung up again by him and by his death."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Ignatius of Antioch (Ancient Greek: Ἰγνάτιος Ἀντιοχείας, Ignátios Antiokheías) (c.35 – c.108), also known as Ignatius Theophorus (Ιγνάτιος ὁ Θεοφόρος, Ignátios ho Theophóros, lit. "the God-bearing"), Ignatius Nurono (lit. "The fire-bearer") was an Apostolic Father, student of the Apostle John, and the third bishop of Antioch.

Adventists ask: Does God's Law CHANGED?

My response:

God does not change His law to the original meaning of it. The reason why SDA apologists accused catholics of breaking the law about Sabbath, because, their interpretation regarding it is not according to what God meant it to be.

For Example: According to the Bible, the Sabbath is the 7th-Day AFTER SIX DAYS WORKS. Not necessarily the 7th-Day OF THE WEEK (Saturday). Strictly speaking, 7th-day after six days works, is not the 7th-day of the week. For, when we say 7th-day after six days works, the 7th-day is not specific on what day is it in a week in the calendar. Because it depends on what day we shall start working with. Jews of the old covenant, start to work on the first day of the week, that is why, we could say that their Sabbath falls on Saturday (7TH-DAY OF THE WEEK).

So if we correctly interpret what the Sabbath is. The Divine or Moral element of the Sabbath, that could not be changed, is, 7th-DAY AFTER SIX DAYS WORKS. The ceremonial element of the Sabbath, that could be changed, is the day, whom we start working and the day that falls the 7th.

Therefore, catholics are right in saying that according to the literal meaning of the Sabbath, the Sabbath is MOVABLE. Adventists interpret it IMMOVABLE.

So again, Jews of the old covenant start to work on Sunday the first day of the week, that is why, their Rest Day or Sabbath falls on Saturday the 7th-day of the WEEK. And what catholics in mind, that, in selecting what day in the week we shall start working is a CEREMONIAL element. Therefore, that could be changed. And according to St Paul, ceremonial laws, would end in its validity to the death of our Lord Jesus Christ (Col 2:14-17). And since, the Sabbath has a divine or moral element, that should be continued (Heb 4:9), the 7th-day AFTER six days works, so it demands, a change of the day that if falls (Heb 4:8).

The Bible and Christian history books, will guide us to the conclusion, that, it is the Lord's Day, Sunday:

Acts 20:7 Living Bible (TLB)

7 On Sunday[a] we gathered for a Communion service (act of worship), with Paul preaching. And since he was leaving the next day, he talked until midnight!

Footnotes:
Acts 20:7 On Sunday, or “On Saturday night”; literally, “On the first day of the week,” by Jewish reckoning, from sundown to sundown.

Revelation 1:10 Living Bible (TLB)

10 It was the Lord’s Day (Sunday) and I was worshiping, when suddenly I heard a loud voice behind me, a voice that sounded like a trumpet blast,

Revelation 1:10 New Living Translation (NLT)

10 It was the Lord’s Day (Sunday), and I was worshiping in the Spirit. Suddenly, I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet blast.

Bishop Ignatius of Antioch, Letter to the Magnesians 8 [A.D. 110]:

"Those who were brought up in the ancient order of things [i.e. Jews] have come to the possession of a new hope, no longer observing the Sabbath (Saturday), but living in the observance of the Lord’s day (Sunday), on which also our life has sprung up again by him and by his death."

Why we CHRISTIANS used to be INDIFFERENT to the plan of our master Jesus Christ, that we people will become ONE in FAITH or RELIGION?

Why we CHRISTIANS used to be INDIFFERENT to the plan of our master Jesus Christ, that we people will become ONE in FAITH or RELIGION? (Eph 4:5; John 17:21-22; James 1:27; John 10:16)

John 10:16 New International Version (NIV)

16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.

_________

We used to be OKEY to our divisions. For we used to like that we owned a certain groups. And we are the HEADS.

Christ established only ONE CHURCH (Mat 16:18). And he commissioned St Peter to be the ONE VISIBLE SHEPHERD in his invisible presence (John 21:15-17).

Acts 1:20 demanded that when an OFFICE is vacant somebody shall takeover. The question is, when the office of St Peter was vacant, who succeeded him?
​
All I could say regarding this very very important unifying question. It is very easy to pinpoint what is that ONE TRUE RELIGION implied, that we should be united. The one religion that can show us a ONE SET of LIST, regarding the office of St Peter. From Peter to the present holder of his office, now Pope Francis. No other list, except, the list of the office of the PAPACY. And not the list of the office of the Executive Ministers of the INC, from, Felix Manalo to Eduardo Manalo.

Here is the list of Popes, from Peter... (click the web link below)

If you want a religion to make you feel really comfortable, I certainly don't recommend Christianity. - C.S. Lewis

I agree. For Christianity is Theocracy. People don't feel comfortable in Theocracy form of government, for they think and feel, that Theocracy is a dictatorship.

If Theocracy is dictatorship, I really LOVE this kind of dictatorship.

I Love the dictatorship of God, than, the dictatorship of Relativism. For Relativism is Polytheism. Dictatorship of God is Unity, while, dictatorship of Relativism is divisions.

The Keys to Unity, is the Keys entrusted by Christ to St Peter (Matthew 16:18-19) as His Vicar or Representative (John 21:15-17).

__________

One of the reasons why it may be difficult to hear God in the modern world is that we often hear people in our secular culture who disagree with the BASIC PRINCIPLE. That the True Church of God, is the Pillar and Foundation of Truth (1 Timothy 3:15). And the Final Arbiter here in this world (Matthew 18:17-18).

When our TRUST to the FAITH and MORALS to the Church is lost. It is very difficult to hear God. Why? Because the depository of TRUTH is in the CHURCH (1 Tim 3:15).

May isang nagpakilalang kaanib ng ADD. Binabato niya ako bilang katoliko. Ang sabi niya sa akin may nahuhuli dawng dalawang Pari ang nambababae.

At ito naman ang sinagot ko sa kanya:
​
Kung totoo man iyan hindi naman iyan DOKTRINA ng katoliko ang pambababae. Iba ang doktrina at iba din ang sin o abuso ng kaanib maging pari man. Hindi ako nagtatanggol ng kasalanan ng mga kaanib. Nagtatanggol lang ako sa Catholic Faith, hindi catholic sins o abuses.

Protestants teach Sola Scriptura, Catholics teach Sola Verbum Dei. Who is right?

Protestants teach Sola Scriptura, Catholics teach Sola Verbum Dei. Who is right?

The approach to authority is very different in the ancient Church than in the modernist Protestant church. The Catholic Church follows the “Word of God alone” while the Protestant ecclesiastical groups follow Sola Scriptura which states that only God’s written word is authoritative. The latter is a sixteenth century man made doctrine designed to destroy the unity of the Church and fragments the entire body of Christ by exponentially increasing schisms caused by accepting only part of God’s word by the Protestants. Sola Scriptura is not a doctrine for a better understanding of the Logos but instead is designed to circumvent the legitimate authority of the Church given by Christ. 

It is the belief of the ancient Church that is the Magisterium of the Church that has the authority given by Christ to expound on, recognize and guard the Word of God. The Word of God is not only the written Scriptures but all that is handed to the Church by the Holy Spirit. In so doing and carrying out her responsibility the Church is the true servant of the Word. 

God’s people have never been Sola Scriptura advocates. In Jesus’ day the orthodox Jews were not, nor were Jesus or the apostles. The continuation Sola Verbum Dei is a theological continuation of God’s Word from the Old Covenant to the New. The only ones who believed in anything resembling Sola Scriptura were the Sadducees who were the theological liberals of their day. We know that the first century Christians did not believe in Sola Scriptura by the teaching of St. Paul in Holy writ: 

(2Th 2:15 DRB) (2:14) Therefore, brethren, stand fast: and hold the traditions, which you have learned, whether by word or by our epistle.

The Church teaches that the Word of God is the Logos:

(Joh 1:1 DRB) In the beginning was the Word: and the Word was with God: and the Word was God.

(Joh 1:2 DRB) The same was in the beginning with God.

(Joh 1:3 DRB) All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made.

(Joh 1:4 DRB) In him was life: and the life was the light of men.

So the question among Christians should not be what is the Word but instead how is the Word revealed to man. To the Protestant the Word is only revealed in written form called Sola Scriptura. To the Catholic Christian the word has a much broader meaning and is revealed to man in more than a written form where men were inspired to reveal God’s Word. Catholics believe that inspiration is not only personal as with the biblical writers but is also revealed to and through the Church such as in the Ecumenical Councils and through the authority exercised through the Church to recognize, guard, interpret and teach the Word. The Church throughout history has faithfully exercised her authority to guard the word of God against the attacks of heresies, such as Sola Scriptura.

In Christ 
Fr. Joseph

Update: Mikearion,

If it is God's will that the Church be divided why did Christ pray in His last prayer in the garden that we all be one?
Update 2: Kait,

"The Bible declares itself to be God-breathed, inerrant, and authoritative. We also know that God does not change His mind or contradict "

The Bible also declares that the Sacred Traditions are equal to the written Word and that the Church is the "bulwark and ground of the truth". Why should one not believe these teachings in Scripture in favor of a more prejudicial interpretation limited to favorable proof texts instead of understanding the Scriptures as a body of work without contradiction?

Best Answer: Catholics are right.

Ironically, Scripture Alone Disproves "Scripture Alone"

Gen. to Rev. - Scripture never says that Scripture is the sole infallible authority for God's Word. Scripture also mandates the use of tradition. This fact alone disproves sola Scriptura.

Matt. 28:19; Mark 16:15 - those that preached the Gospel to all creation but did not write the Gospel were not less obedient to Jesus, or their teachings less important.

Matt. 28:20 - "observe ALL I have commanded," but, as we see in John 20:30; 21:25, not ALL Jesus taught is in Scripture. So there must be things outside of Scripture that we must observe. This disproves "Bible alone" theology.

Mark 16:15 - Jesus commands the apostles to "preach," not write, and only three apostles wrote. The others who did not write were not less faithful to Jesus, because Jesus gave them no directive to write. There is no evidence in the Bible or elsewhere that Jesus intended the Bible to be sole authority of the Christian faith.

Luke 1:1-4 - Luke acknowledges that the faithful have already received the teachings of Christ, and is writing his Gospel only so that they "realize the certainty of the teachings you have received." Luke writes to verify the oral tradition they already received.

John 20:30; 21:25 - Jesus did many other things not written in the Scriptures. These have been preserved through the oral apostolic tradition and they are equally a part of the Deposit of Faith.

Acts 8:30-31; Heb. 5:12 - these verses show that we need help in interpreting the Scriptures. We cannot interpret them infallibly on our own. We need divinely appointed leadership within the Church to teach us.

Acts 15:1-14 – Peter resolves the Church’s first doctrinal issue regarding circumcision without referring to Scriptures.

Acts 17:28 – Paul quotes the writings of the pagan poets when he taught at the Aeropagus. Thus, Paul appeals to sources outside of Scripture to teach about God.

1 Cor. 5:9-11 - this verse shows that a prior letter written to Corinth is equally authoritative but not part of the New Testament canon. Paul is again appealing to a source outside of Scripture to teach the Corinthians. This disproves Scripture alone.

1 Cor. 11:2 - Paul commends the faithful to obey apostolic tradition, and not Scripture alone.

Phil. 4:9 - Paul says that what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do. There is nothing ever about obeying Scripture alone.

Col. 4:16 - this verse shows that a prior letter written to Laodicea is equally authoritative but not part of the New Testament canon. Paul once again appeals to a source outside of the Bible to teach about the Word of God.

1 Thess. 2:13 – Paul says, “when you received the word of God, which you heard from us..” How can the Bible be teaching first century Christians that only the Bible is their infallible source of teaching if, at the same time, oral revelation was being given to them as well? Protestants can’t claim that there is one authority (Bible) while allowing two sources of authority (Bible and oral revelation).

1 Thess. 3:10 - Paul wants to see the Thessalonians face to face and supply what is lacking. His letter is not enough.

2 Thess. 2:14 - Paul says that God has called us "through our Gospel." What is the fullness of the Gospel?

2 Thess. 2:15 - the fullness of the Gospel is the apostolic tradition which includes either teaching by word of mouth or by letter. Scripture does not say "letter alone." The Catholic Church has the fullness of the Christian faith through its rich traditions of Scripture, oral tradition and teaching authority (or Magisterium).

2 Thess 3:6 - Paul instructs us to obey apostolic tradition. There is no instruction in the Scriptures about obeying the Bible alone (the word "Bible" is not even in the Bible).

1 Tim. 3:14-15 - Paul prefers to speak and not write, and is writing only in the event that he is delayed and cannot be with Timothy.

2 Tim. 2:2 - Paul says apostolic tradition is passed on to future generations, but he says nothing about all apostolic traditions being eventually committed to the Bible.

2 Tim. 3:14 - continue in what you have learned and believed knowing from whom you learned it. Again, this refers to tradition which is found outside of the Bible.

James 4:5 - James even appeals to Scripture outside of the Old Testament canon ("He yearns jealously over the spirit which He has made...")

2 Peter 1:20 - interpreting Scripture is not a matter of one's own private interpretation. Therefore, it must be a matter of "public" interpretation of the Church. The Divine Word needs a Divine Interpreter. Private judgment leads to divisions, and this is why there are 30,000 different Protestant denominations.

2 Peter 3:15-16 - Peter says Paul's letters are inspired, but not all his letters are in the New Testament canon. See, for example, 1 Cor. 5:9-10; Col. 4:16. Also, Peter's use of the word "ignorant" means unschooled, which presupposes the requirement of oral apostolic instruction that comes from the Church.

2 Peter 3:16 - the Scriptures are difficult to understand and can be distorted by the ignorant to their destruction. God did not guarantee the Holy Spirit would lead each of us to infallibly interpret the Scriptures. But this is what Protestants must argue in order to support their doctrine of sola Scriptura. History and countless divisions in Protestantism disprove it.

1 John 4:1 - again, God instructs us to test all things, test all spirits. Notwithstanding what many Protestants argue, God's Word is not always obvious.

1 Sam. 3:1-9 - for example, the Lord speaks to Samuel, but Samuel doesn't recognize it is God. The Word of God is not self-attesting.

1 Kings 13:1-32 - in this story, we see that a man can't discern between God's word (the commandment "don't eat") and a prophet's erroneous word (that God had rescinded his commandment "don't eat"). The words of the Bible, in spite of what many Protestants must argue, are not always clear and understandable. This is why there are 30,000 different Protestant churches and one Holy Catholic Church.

Gen. to Rev. - Protestants must admit that knowing what books belong in the Bible is necessary for our salvation. However, because the Bible has no "inspired contents page," you must look outside the Bible to see how its books were selected. This destroys the sola Scriptura theory. The canon of Scripture is a Revelation from God which is necessary for our salvation, and which comes from outside the Bible. Instead, this Revelation was given by God to the Catholic Church, the pinnacle and foundation of the truth (1 Tim. 3:15).

We made computers, tablets, vehicles, anything, out of the things made by the Creator God. We could not made it all, without the raw materials made by Him. And yet we are only busy on these things, without being busy, on how to worship Him properly.

__________

We build our family house and then we do something in order to beautify it. And restore it when it is dilapidated.
​
Christ build a Church and then we are lazy in doing something in order to make it a nice Church. When problems arise, we are lazy in cooperating to solve it. Why? Is it because we allow Satan to make us feel the Church is irrelevant?

If the Church is irrelevant why is it Christ's apostle St Paul, declared, that the Church is the Pillar and Foundation of Truth? (1 Tim 3:15)

If there is only ONE GOD, there is also ONE TRUE RELIGION.

If there is only ONE GOD, there is also ONE TRUE RELIGION.

It is also true, that, talking about the membership of this one true religion, it is not one. It is many, more than one. So as when we talk about the talents, functions, local churches, organizations, it's in DIVERSITY.

But talking about FAITH or RELIGION it is ONE (Ephesians 4:5). For God is not the author of confusion. He is not the author of divisions. He is the author of UNITY (John 17:21-22).

Therefore:

It is a must to find this ONE TRUE RELIGION, among the FALSE RELIGIONS.

Caution:

It is not easy to indentify the false religions. For even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14).

__________

Yes, there is the what we call FALSE ONE WORLD RELIGION, a fantasy one. But there is also a prophecy in the bible, that all will be one. Meaning, all will be converted to the TRUE ONE UNIVERSAL RELIGION (Daniel 2:44; Matthew 24:14; John 17:21-22; John 10:16). We don't know when will this to happen. But surely it will happen. For with God nothing shall be impossible (Luke 1:37).

And now the making of this one universal religion is ongoing. And maybe, your the one of the architects, engineers or workers of it. And you should be proud of it.

Si Mayor ang IDOL ko !!!

Ang Panginoong Jesu Christo ay nagtatag ng iglesia o simbahan (Mateo 16:18). At sabi niya, dito sa mundo, ang simbahan niya ang dapat masusunod (Mateo 18:17). Pero, bakit ba ang gusto ng simbahan ay minamali ko at hindi ko gusto. At ang ginawa kong tama, at gusto kong susundin, ay ang gusto ni Mayor/President?

Ito na nga kaya ang katuparan sa hula ng Isaiah 5:20, na darating ang panahon na ang tama ay gagawing mali. At ang mali naman ay gagawing tama?

Parang nakakalimotan ko, na ang CRISIS pala ngayon, ay hindi lang crisis sa DRUGA at CORRUPTION. Kaya ko nagugustohan si Mayor. Pero, ng binasa ko ang mga salita ng Dios, sa bibliya. Nakakalimotan ko pala, na kasama pala sa crisis ng mundo, ang pagdating sa RELIGION o PANINIWALA. Sabi kasi sa bibliya, ONE FAITH (Ephesians 4:5). At anong mga nangyayari ngayon, MULTIPLE FAITHS. Division o hati-hatian sa relihiyon. Sabi pa nga ni Mayor sa media na gagawa siya ng sarili niyang religion, ang "Iglesia ni Duterte." So madadagdagan na naman ang religion kung mangyayari ito. Si Mayor ang concern niya ay sa problema lang sa DRUGA at CURRUPTION o kayay sa KAHIRAPAN lang. Kung naniniwala si Mayor sa Dios ng bibliya, bakit hindi siya concern sa PROBLEMA sa RELIGION? Hindi ba niya naiisip sa ngayon ang kagustohan ng Dios sa bibliya?

__________

Ang kahirapan, problema sa druga at corruption ay resulta sa disobedience ng mga tao sa aral ng simbahan, halimbawa, sa sampung utos ng Dios. Isa sa sampung utos ay igagalang ang mga magulang. Ang mga magulang ay dapat magtuturo sa kanilang mga anak na maging masunurin sa batas ng tao na sang-ayon sa batas ng Dios. Kung hindi ito tutuparin ng mga tao, KAYA TAYO MAGKAKAPROBLEMA. We people now are only reaping the bad results to our disobedience to God. At kung pagdating sa pag-desisyon sa kung ano ang dapat na kaparusahan sa mga suwail sa batas, hindi po aral sa bibliya ang hindi tayo susunod sa PROTOCOL of AUTHORITY. Sa bibliya, ang FINAL arbiter pagdating sa kung ano ang tama at mali. Hindi po ang kahit sino lang ang magpapasya nito. Dahil, WALA PONG UNITY ang kahit na sino na lang ang magpapasya. Dahil paiba-iba ang isip ng mga tao. Sa bibliya, ang Final Arbiter, ay wala pong iba kundi ang simbahan (Mateo 18:17). Wag lang pangunahan natin ang Dios. Dahil kung pangunahan natin ang Dios, Dios na din ang ating mga sariling pag-iisip. Ang mangyayari, lilitaw na hindi na iisa ang Dios. Dadami na ang Dios. Dahil hindi iisa ang desisyon.

Ang ating simbahan ay sang-ayon sa Death Penalty ng Dios. Pero, hindi sang-ayon ang simbahan sa Death Penaty ng tao. Pero, hindi nangangahulogan, na walang mali o walang pagkukulang ang simbahan, pagdating sa pamamahala ng simbahan. Tao lang sila na maaring magkakasala at magkakamali ng personal. Kagaya ni Judas noon at Pedro, na natawag siyang SATANAS ng may nasabi siyang mali (Mateo 16:23). At tayong lahat, haharap sa hukoman ng Dios sa langit.

__________

Don't we know that Both PRO and AGAINST DEATH PENALTY is Biblical?

Pro - "Wages of Sin is Death." (Romans 6:23)
Against - "You shall not Kill." (Exodus 20:13)

Explanation:

It is lawful to kill, when it is God's will. Meaning, if it is reasonable and needed.
It is unlawful to kill, when it is NOT God's will. Meaning, if it is unreasonable.

__________

Now, the question is, is it reasonable to impose Death Penalty, without referring and asking permission to Church's authorities?

My Biblical Answer is BIG NO (1 Tim 3:15; Mat 18:17-18).

(God's PROTOCOL Philosophy)

__________

Dapat kong lilinawin sa inyo ang posisyon ko tungkol sa Death Penalty. Hindi ako against o tutol sa Death Penalty if reasonable at naayon sa aral ng simbahan. Ibig sabihin kung mag-a approve ang simbahan nito. Dahil, I really believe God's PROTOCOL sa ating mundo. Anong silbi sa tatag na Simbahan ni Cristo kung itoy hindi naman natin susundin.

Impossible bang pag-iisahin ang Religion ng Mundo?

Sabi ng isang kaibigan, mahirap at parang imposible yata ang mission mo. Ang pag-iisahin ang paniniwala (religion) sa mundo.

Ang sabi ko, kung ganon, imposible pala ang gusto ng Panginoon sa loob ng bibliya. Ito ang mga talata:

John 10:16 New International Version (NIV)

16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd (Jesus/Pope, John 21:15-17).

John 17:21-22 New International Version (NIV)

21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one--

Ephesians 4:4-5 New International Version (NIV)

4 There is one body (ONE CHURCH, Col.1:18) and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; 5 one Lord, one faith (ONE RELIGION, James 1:27), one baptism;

James 1:27 New International Version (NIV)

27 Religion (singular not plural) that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

One Religion... ha!.... impossible..???!!!!

Luke 1:37 King James Version (KJV)

37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.

Bakit daw maniwala sa POPE na hindi naman daw ito mababasa ang office o katungkulang ito sa loob ng bibliya?

Ang salitang TRINITY ay hindi din ito mababasa sa loob ng bibliya. Naniniwala tayo sa trinity hindi dahil mababasa ang salitang ito sa loob ng bibliya. Naniniwala tayo nito, dahil, ang tinutumbok natin nito ay nasa bibliya. Ang kaisahan sa Ama, Anak at Espiritu Santo (Mateo 28:19).

Ganon din ang salitang Pope. Naniniwala tayo nito, hindi dahil mababasa ang salitang ito sa loob ng bibliya. Naniniwala tayo nito dahil, ang tinutumbok natin nito, ay ang tungkulin (office) ni Pedro bilang pinagkakatiwalaan ng mga susi ng kaharian ng Dios (Mateo 16:19).

The Power or Authority of the POPE in the Bible:

Matthew 16:19 Good News Translation (GNT)

19 I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of heaven; what you prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and what you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven.

____________________

The office of the POPE is a Prime Minister, the one entrusted the KEYS of the KINGDOM (Matthew 16:19):

"When Jesus entrusted the 'keys of the Kingdom' to Peter (Mat 16:19), he is referring to an important Old Testament passage, Isaiah 22:20-22, where Hezekiah, the royal heir to David's throne and King of Israel in Isaiah's day, replaced his old Prime Minister, Shebna, with a new one named Eliakim. Everyone could tell which one of the royal cabinet members was the new Prime Minister since he was given the 'keys of the kingdom'. By entrusting to Peter the 'keys of the Kingdom', Jesus established the office of Prime Minister for administering the Church as his Kingdom on earth. The 'keys' are a symbol, then, of Peter's office and primacy to be handed on to his successor; thus it has been handed down throughout the ages."

~ Dr. Scott Hahn ~

Question for INC-1914:

What then is the biblical foundation of the OFFICE of the Executive Minister of the INC, if the OFFICE of Peter, entrusted the KEYS of the Kingdom, whom catholics called it Pope, is invalid?

Question for SDA-1844:
​
What then is the biblical foundation of the OFFICE of the Prophet, Ellen White of the SDA, if the OFFICE of Peter, entrusted the KEYS of the Kingdom, whom catholics called it Pope, is invalid?

Hindi po ito totoo. Ang "last days," na tinumbok sa hula ng bibliya ay nagsisimula ito sa panahon pa ito mismo ng Panginoong Jesu Cristo.

Ito ang patotoo o patunay natin sa bibliya:

Hebrews 1:1-2 King James Version (KJV)

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these LAST DAYS spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
