In reply to Kitty. On the particular Sabbath discussed in the article, Paul did not go to the synagogue because he was traveling by boat. Perhaps you should read the article prior to commenting.

Your article claims that after Jesus Paul didn’t kept Sabbath right??
So I say to you prepare your homework and come again. Acts 18:4 clearly says that he is to go to synagogue on every Sabbath.

The way I understand it is the Feast of UL bread only 1 day long. However, it doesn’t disrupt the calculation because the Feast of First Fruits is always on the 1st day following the 1st Sabbath after PO.

Let’s say today, 2/11 is PO. 2/12 is the Feast of UL. 2/16 is the Feast of FF.
Let’s say 2/13 is PO. 2/14 is the Feast of UL. 2/16 is the Feast of FF.

My question lies.. How do you know the PO Paul supposedly kept was on a Saturday? I’m genuinely confused.

I have the same question. I have a friend who is in this cult and I can obviously see through the chart above that he could not have celebrated those feasts but I still am confused on how we know the days of the week to start counting. I would really appreciate a breakdown of calculating this out.

In reply to Explained Titan. Hello Explained Titan, Like you said, the days of the week would not be affected so the calculations would still show that Paul did not keep the Feast of Firstfruits. Besides, the World Mission Society Church of God uses the "sacred calendar" to calculate the dates of their "feasts" despite the fact that the rest of society follows the Gregorian Calendar. I hope this helps. I would suggest starting a thread in the forum so that others can contribute to this topic.

i think it is important to note that the church believes that the feast of u.b is one day in the NT according to MArk 2:19-20. so that would change the calculations a bit thought the result would still show Paul didnt keep the sabbath and also FF. BUt this is my delimma, at that time i believe Paul was under the Julian calendar, which means though we calculated from the basic Jewish calendar the day might be different as it is for us now. with out knowing those calculations from the Julian Calendar we cannot know the exact days of pauls trip and celebration of the feast. i hope that makes since. Pls respond and let me know what u think.
