If you don't stand for something, Will you fall for anything?

Question

I stand for Jesus Christ, Do you? or will you fall for anything?

Answer 1

Many people(Matt.7:13) don't stand for Jesus because they're not following Jesus(Phil.2:21). Their blinded by their faith; they only see one side instead of the whole picture. They think they're following Jesus, but in reality their following their own righteousness(Rom.10:3). Their foundation will fall!

I build my house upon the rock(Matt.7:24-25); while others build their foundation on the sand. I stand firm on Jesus & his foundation!
To help you undsterstand better how my foundation won't fall--I will give you three examples.
One will be the Sabbath, other Jesus's Birth and Jesus's Death.

SABBATH DAY
"Ye worship ye know not what; we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews." John 4:22

Notice Jesus was saying that we should worship Saturday like the Jews.
Have you ever looked up Sabbath in the:
Encyclopaedia Americana, vol.24, pp.68-69; it tells you it's Saturday.

Look in Hebrews 3:18-19; 4:1-11 (Jesus didn't change the day to Sunday and the resurrection wasn't Sunday either--2Tim.2:18).
Look in Heb.10:26.
Look in 2Peter 2:21.
Now look at Rev.14:7; doesn't that go back to the 4th Commandment?

Now let's see if the Catholics know when the seventh day is.
"Ques.--Which is the Sabbath day?
"Ans.--Saturday is the Sabbath day.
"Ques.--Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday?
"Ans.--We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday."--Peter Geiermann, The Convert's Catechism of Catholic Doctrine (1946 ed.), p.50. Geiermann received the "apostolic blessing" of Pope Pius x on his labors, Jan.25,1910. [bible readings pg.194]

Dan.7:25 "he shall think to change times and laws"

JESUS'S BIRTH

Scripture doesn't mention Jesus's birthdate or any christians celebrating His Birthday. The only birthday mentioned besides Pharoah is the heathen king Herod. "Christmas" means "mass of Christ"; the celebration coexisted in Rome before there was any in Jerusalem. The early Roman Church however did establish a pagan festival that (Jer.10) coexisted with Jesus's Birth and that was the birthday of the sun god. (Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th ed., article: "Christmas"). The Catholic sources admit that Christmas didn't co-exist with the earliest festivals. Jesus wasn't born Christmas; even scripture makes this evident. "On the night of Jesus's birth, the shepherd's were still keeping watch over their flocks." (Luke 2:8). The rainy season in Ancient Israel began after the Feast of Tabernacles which generally is early October. In November, it would be cool and wet; the flocks from the pasture had already been brought and kept in winter quarters by the shepherds. This tells us the shepherds were no longer in the fields at night. Another peice of evidence is overlooked is in Luke 1:35-36; it tells us John the Baptist was born to Mary's cousin Elizabeth six months before Jesus. And as we look further in verse 5-17, we see Zacharias an elderly priest burning incense on the altar and then an angel appearing to him and telling him that he and his wife would have a son to prepare Christ's Way. We know however when this announcement was made by the angel because of Zacharias was "of the course of Abijah" Please look at 1Chron.24:1-19; it tells us that King David divided these priests into 24 "courses" that served in the temple by rotation. The Course of Abijah would be the 8th of the 24 courses which usually would occur around the end of May. Pentecost came the week after the 8th course served and he had to serve all 24 courses during the three festival seasons. So Zacharias came home approximately after the first week of June; in which John the Baptist was conceived around mid-June and 9 months later would be his birth. John Baptist's birth came around mid-March while Jesus's was around mid-September. Also notice every year people claim 3 wise men seen Jesus in a stable; is this really true? The Bible nowhere states "3 wise men" or "that the wise men visited Jesus in a stable". Read for yourself: (Matt.2:11); these Magi came from the east beyond the Euphrates River which in the 1st century was called the Parthian Empire (the eastern border of the Roman Empire).

JESUS'S DEATH
***JESUS DIED WEDNESDAY APRIL 14, 31AD

A good foundation (1Tim.6:19) has solid ground evidence. The foundation should include 2Tim.3:16; Isaiah 28:9-10; 2Peter 1:19-21; 1Thess.5:20-21 & Ephes.5:9-10,13. To understand deeply--you must use these websites:

If you read Daniel 9:27; it says "he died in the middle of the week"; that would be Wednesday. This is followed by "3 days & 3 nights" = Matthew 12:40 which equals 1-24hr.day x 3days equals 72hrs. in grave. Next the Bible tells us it would be "after 3days and "not before = Matt.27:63-64 and Mark 8:31. It tells us in three days (John 2:19-21) and not after. The Bible also reminds us a day is 12hrs. not including the night(John 11:9-10). Remember also Gen.1:5 and Lev.23:32 tells us "evening to evening" is considered to be a day.

Now I know this is true because the MAJORITY(Matt.7:13) is always wrong. Also there's many clues that it wasn't a Friday crucifixion and a Sunday resurrection; look at 2Tim.2:18. But you will point out Mark 16:9 which says "Now when Jesus was risen[the perfect tense is correct here--he was already risen] early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene." Now the original Greek didn't have no punctuation. If the King James translators put a comma after the word "risen" and not after "week", this would make complete sense. The Centenary Translation renders it this way: "Now after his resurrection, early on the first day of the week he appeared first to Mary Magdalene."

Answer 2

Although a clever play on words, it is actually only those who have fallen for something that stand for anything.

Those who are rational in all aspects of life, avoid arbitrary stances, and simply let the chips fall where they may. It isn't at all clear to me that 'standing for something' is even the slightest bit virtuous. It seems to be the behavior of narcissists who think they are incapable of error.

Answer 3

I am a very loose christian....meaning, that's the religion i am i suppose, but i don't go to church (even, like i've never been in my entire life), but i have a brother and many friends who are athiests, and it's not like their lives have no purpose just because they dont believe in Jesus Christ. Don't be so narrow minded.

Answer 4

YES, BUT how bout falling for THIS: ASK the Government to Laser-Scan the Signature's on the Declaration of Independance and DECODE the SOUND VIBRATION's that were CAPTURED in the Drying INK!!!!! We could hear what was being said in the room while they Signed It!!!! They used Quill-Pen's and we got Super-Computer's!!!!!
Came up with that'n, all by maself!!! Ditto!!!!

Answer 5

Who is Aaron Tippen? Does he stand for Jesus, I certainly
hope so. Jesus is Lord.
I Corinthians 13;8a, Love never fails!!!!!

Answer 6

Is it really needed to put stuff like this up....

This site is for fun and for boredum. Why do you need to post things like this...... let people think for themselves. Jesus Christ doesnt promote pressuring your religion on yahoo answers ;)

Answer 7

I dont stand for marriage but I fall in (for)love.
I stand for election but fall for corruption

Answer 8

Can't you be more original than to copy the title of an Aaron Tippen song?

Answer 9

no not if you sit on the fence

Answer 10

I don't fall for fairy tales of your religion

Answer 11
