Then go heal a cancer ward, or is your faith lacking today?
Jesus wont ask you that question eh, because of all the things you're doing now? Okay.....
You've proved yourself ey, good one.
I'm not laying a trap, theyre both Biblically grounded questions.
You say none are worthy, that includes your worship then. Also, what's this about Jesus visiting you? You must be an apostle!
Tell us what Jesus says because everything revealed by the spirit is gospel! Preach it!
Faith comes by hearing the word of God, and believing it. We already have Gods word through the scriptures, yet you get yours in visions and dreams..... Why is that?
What does Jesus say of me to you? Sincere question because if you reveal my innermost fear, I will repent of my position toward you. Sincerely
Oh and if someone forgets my birthday I'm not hurting if they're nice to me every day. I'm not that petty.

So true Christians who are taken into the New Covenant are commanded to observe Christ's death every year on Nisan 14. It is a yearly observance, just as was the Passover.
Thank you brother,
EXACTLY ............. COMMANDED
A command to the Christians.......
So how many wannabe Christians failed to follow this command on 14 Nisan.???
REPENT
and get over it. Ask your Father in heaven for forgiveness and CHANGE!!!
FOLLOW stop trying to lead!! (not you brother, I am talking to those who disagree)

I really shouldn't chime in on this thread seeing the spirit being displayed in here. Hopefully everyone can calm down. If you are serious about serving God then it should allow you to display the fruitage of the spirit of peace and patience. Not bickering and fighting.
But since I am here I will expound upon some of the questions regarding the observance of Christ's death.
Firstly it is the only anniversary, or observance the Christian Bible commands a Christian to commemorate, or celebrate: "Keep doing this in remembrance of me."-Luke 22:19.
That Jesus didn't have to literally say this was to be a yearly celebration but that it was implicitly implied can be seen in when and how he initiated the special event.
Firstly, when did it happen? It was on the night of Passover, Nisan 14, 33 C. E. Now if you recall Passover is called just that because it is the night the angel of death passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt when all the firstborn of Egypt were put to death. Only those who had the blood of the lamb sprinkled on their doorposts did the angel pass over their house.
The blood of the lamb represented the blood that the Lamb Jesus Christ was to pour out on behalf of all humankind that puts faith in his ransom sacrifice.
The Israelites were told to celebrate the Passover during the week of unleavened bread which started on Nisan 14. And they celebrate this day even today!
Now before Jesus started the observance of his death he first celebrated the Passover with his chosen apostles. The 12 were with him, but he dismissed Judas before celebrating. Then after celebrating the Passover he then commemorated the Lord's evening meal. When he told his followers to "keep doing this" he was replacing the Passover celebration for the commemoration of his death.
So true Christians who are taken into the New Covenant are commanded to observe Christ's death every year on Nisan 14. It is a yearly observance, just as was the Passover.
Today when does a new day start? It is as 12AM, in the middle of the night. During Jesus' time, the day started at sundown. So Jesus waited until the sun had set before celebrating the Passover. The next day it was still Nisan 14 until sundown. By then Jesus had been hung on the stake, murdered, taken down and buried. For it was not lawful to keep a man hanging until sundown.
Your zeal is commendable. But remember this:
"But sanctify the Christ as Lord in your hearts, always ready to make a defense before everyone who demands of you a reason for the hope you have, but doing so with a mild temper and deep respect."-1 Peter 3:15.

I really like you actually.
You have conviction and that is rare.
I'm not testing the Lord. Nor will I. I have been divisive here, forgive me. L
I am still learning and don't want a new Christian to read this and stumble.
I have nothing against you, you obviously love Jesus as do I. I wont trouble you any more.

Then tell me WHERE in any gospel account does it say "to be saved, remember Christs anniversary of his death to be saved". Just one will suffice.

Hey Kets, what year was it when Jesus was executed
It’s a tricky answer, don’t guess

Exactly Kets, what calendar
Nobody knows the year of Jesus birth, it is just not a salvation issue, nor is the date He was born
Petty arguments to cloud a persons mind
Jesus commanded love, ended religion, nobody decides but God what is in a humans heart
