He had no income during his ministry's and relied on the kindness of strangers, should we do that to? While you are mindlessly following all of Gods commandments, here are a few more for you to consider: Lev 19:19 Keep my decrees. Do not mate different kinds of animals. Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. Lev 19:27 Do not cut the hair on the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard. Lev 19:28 Do not... put tattoo marks on yourselves. All of this right next to Lev 19:30 Observe my Sabbaths and have reverence for my sanctuary. I am the Lord. I'm not offended or angry, I just think there are more important things to care about then what day you go to church.

I might understand why we have traffic lights, and so can make a judgement to break the road rules if it's safer, but I don't understand why God created the Sabbath, or why he asked us to keep it holy. 2. We're not talking about road rules here, we're talking about God's word. God - the creator of the universe. Do we have to follow his rules 'cos THAT'S THE LAW? Yes. No exceptions. I'm sorry Rhys, usually I can accept your opinions on this kind of thing, 'cos I know it's impossible to dissuade you, but on this one I think that you are VERY very wrong. We can NOT just dismiss the bible because we think we understand the reason for it. By this logic you can pretty much do whatever you like, and justify it. Seriously, take some time out and think and pray about it. I completely disagree with you Rhys. 2 reasons.

But what about at those pedestrian crossings and you see the person walk in front of you and the lights stay red for 20 more seconds. should we just wait in the road like an idiot? no. God doesn't want us to blindly follow his law, he wants us to understand the reason for the law and the consequences for breaking it and then make the correct judgment. I think your leaning more towards "We HAVE to stay stopped at the traffic light because THATS THE LAW". But why dose the law exist in the first place? Are you any more or less safe when makeing the decision to safely drive through the superfluous red light then when you are mindlessly sitting there for no reason?
