Growing up in a small Southern town situated in the Bible belt, there were more than a couple denominations with sins that I couldn’t find in the Bible.

Two days ago, I witnessed what was easily the most stunning rainbow I have ever seen. My camera phone does not do it justice. It was so close and so vivid the tree it appears to come from literally looked like it was on fire. Amazing!!

I cannot look at a rainbow, though, without remembering the Sabbath. God uses EXACTLY the same terminology when He gives the Covenant of the Sabbath as He does with the Covenant of the Rainbow.

First, that big ‘The Conversion of Saul,’ is inserted by the editors. It is not inspired Scripture, and the only thing it does is set the reader up with a FALSE premise! Continue reading “The Apostle Paul was NOT a Christian!”
