So you've gone from scoffing to quoting scripture? What do all the quotes have to do with what we've been discussing? I don't see the connection.

God has always had His church. I don't believe there is a whit of difference between them as the ceremonial laws pointed forward to Jesus and we are looking back at Him. The new covenant is just about writing all 10 commandments in our hearts. God placed the 4th commandment in the 10 so they are all moral laws whether or not a person believes it or not. Our belief, or unbelief, changes nothing.
Honor father and mother is the fourth?

We don’t look back to Christ!
Christ and His church are one!
Matt 28:19-20 acts 9:4 eph 5:32
 
He has been glorified but He is still a human being. How do millions of people fit in His body? Besides He is in heaven until it is too late to use His body as a temple.

Revelation 22: 10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Mystical body of christ
 
Where does scripture say otherwise?
Heb 8:1 Christ is high priest
Requiring low priests of the same order

With priestly ministry:
Mk 3:14 “ordained”
Matt 22:14 Jn 15:16 “chosen” “ordained”
Jn 20:21 “sent by Christ with His authority”
Jn 20:23 “power to forgive sins”
Acts 1:8 “anointing with power”
acts 1:15-26 “ministry / bishop”
Acts 2:38-39 “administered sacraments”
acts 14:23 “ordained”
Acts 16:4 “ordained “
Rom 15:16 “minister / sanctify”
1 cor 9:14 “ordained”
1 Tim 2:7 “ordained”
1 Tim 3:1-2 “bishop”
1 Tim 4:14 “priest” “priestly ministry”
Phil 1:1 “bishops deacons”
James 5:14 “anointing with oil”

The ministerial priesthood acts in “the person of Christ” so it is Christ who acts thru them vicariously.
2 cor 2:10 Jn 15:5 eph 5:24
 
Not a single one of those verses say anyone was ordained as a priest.
Christ reformed the mosaic covenant into the new covenant heb 9:10 with many similarities

They had a high priest
We have a high priest

They had a royal priesthood we have a royal priesthood

They had a ministerial priesthood it follows that we also have a ministerial priesthood

They had and ark
We have an ark

They a sacrifice we the eternal sacrifice of christ

Fundamentalism reduces everything to absolute minimum

Least possible for God!

The true Christian faith does the most possible for God!
 
My statement was a question.
Here it is again...."Where is there any scripture saying I need an ordained priest in order to worship God ?"
Shows you don’t understand the nature of worship

Worship requires a priest offering sacrifice

Public worship you can have private prayer and praise all you want
 
Not a single one of those verses say anyone was ordained as a priest.
The church is a kingdom not a democracy
We don’t get a vote
We must submit to the king and His kingdom and his authorized ministers

Doctrines are to be understood in that sense which the perpetual consent of the Catholic Church hath held and expressed it.

Truth must be revealed by God thru Christ to His church (the apostles Jude 1:3) then must be proposed by the church, (Matt 28:19 gal 3:23) without error by the Holy Spirit! (Jn 16:13) one faith (eph 4:5) the faith delivered to the apostles (Jude 1:3)

Otherwise we fall under the condemnation of scripture!
2 pet 3:16

It’s not a Bible study but a covenant with requirements

Example you cannot enter on your own by faith alone but by baptism

Really? He doesn't understand worship? This discussion has been about public worship. Your scoffing side is showing again.

Who has made that claim? I certainly haven't.

Also you left out something.

Ephesians 2: 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

The word grace is translated from the Greek word has the following meaning:

05485
χάρις cháris, khar'-ece
from 5463;
graciousness (as gratifying), of manner or act (abstract or concrete; literal, figurative or spiritual; especially the divine influence upon the heart, and its reflection in the life; including gratitude):--acceptable, benefit, favour, gift, grace(- ious), joy, liberality, pleasure, thank(-s, -worthy).

Saved does not refer to salvation but redemption

Eph 2:8 does not refer to your faith

Grace always proceeds any salutary act on our part
 
Your still just in a Bible study not a covenant which requires an outward sign
Faith and baptism Jn 3:5
 
Saved does not refer to salvation but redemption

Eph 2:8 does not refer to your faith

Grace always proceeds any salutary act on our part
Salvation and redemption are separate concepts?

Noun: salvation sal'vey-shun
  1. (theology) the act of delivering from sin or saving from evil
    - redemption
  2. A means of preserving from harm or unpleasantness
    "tourism was their economic salvation"; "they turned to individualism as their salvation"
  3. The state of being saved or preserved from harm
  4. Saving someone or something from harm or from an unpleasant situation
    "the salvation of his party was the president's major concern"
As you can see by the first definition they are synonyms. Your apparent compulsion to disagree with me puts you in some very awkward positions. It makes you appear a good deal less than intelligent.

Redemption :

God gives all men sufficient truth and grace for salvation.

Glorification:

Suffering required for glorification with Christ!

So sanctification, justification and all the rest you listed aren't part of salvation? They're all unrelated concepts? The aren't part of redemption? That's off as the Bible says differently.

1Corinthians 1: 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

The word translated as righteousness means the following:

[*StrongsGreek*]
01343
δικαιοσύνη dikaiosýnē, dik-ah-yos-oo'-nay
from 1342;
equity (of character or act); specially (Christian) justification:--righteousness.

All are in the process of salvation

But only those who are in Christ ad his church by faith and baptism as who endure to the end att 24:13 and abide in Christ Jn 15:4 shall be saved
 
It’s true it’s not part of your fundamentalist Bible study!

Absolute minimum!

Titus 3:5 baptismal regeneration
1 pet 1:2 washed in Christ’s blood
1 pet 2:9 the kingdom of light
1 pet 3:20-21 baptism saves us!

Faith and baptism are required Mk 16:16 eph 4:5

Faith alone even all faith avails NOTHING! 1 cor 13:2

Not called to “faith alone” Phil 1:29
 
The Christian sacrament* of baptismal regeneration is required for the new covenant and salvation!

*this promise acts 2:38-39 is a sacred oath from God ez 36:25-27 and a sacred oath is a sacrament!

Initiation!!!


Faith & Baptism is the initiation of the new and eternal covenant!

You cannot enter on you’re own or by “faith alone”!

You cannot receive Christ or grace by “faith alone”!

“Accept Christ as you’re personal lord and savior” is fundamentalist tradition not found scripture!

Jn 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

2 pet 1: 11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Baptismal regeneration a new creation in Christ! 2 Cor 5:17

A sacrament is an oath! A sacred promise from God! Ez 36:25-27
Acts 2:38-39 (this promise)

No baptism no grace!
No union with God and His saints thru Christ the mediator!

A sacrament is an outward sign for all men including infants And a gift from God to help us see what he does inwardly and invisibly by his grace!

As grace Washes our souls in the merits of Jesus blood from original and personal sin, so the outward action of washing is visible!

without the outward action the inward action cannot take place!

Jn 3:5 Titus 3:5 water and washing
acts 22:16 wash away your sin!

Jn 3:5 Born again BY water and the spirit! Not by “faith alone”!

They did not go to Jerusalem and preach “accept Christ as you’re personal Lord and savior “

They went to the river (water) and they baptized! Jn 3:22

A covenant requires an outward sign of the inward action of grace!

Ez 36:25 I will sprinkle you with clean water and you shall be made white as snow.

Acts 22:16 washing away your sins.

Eph 4:5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism.

1 pet 3:21 baptism saves you.

You cannot enter on you’re own or by faith alone! Jn 3:5

2 pet 1: 11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Heb 2:11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,


Baptism!

God breathed life into Adam, gen 2:7 and we received this life from our fathers!

Christ breathed on the apostles our spiritual fathers, we receive the new covenant life of God’s grace from them thru faith & baptism! Jn 20:21-23 Mk 16:16 acts 8:36-38 eph 2

Born again! Born from above!

'The Father has set his seal' on Christ (John 6:27) and also seals us in him (cf. 2 Corinthians 1:22; Ephesians 1:23, 4:30). Because this seal indicates the indelible effect of the anointing with the Holy Spirit in the sacrament of Baptism,

Baptism indeed is the seal of eternal life." 87 The faithful Christian who I has "kept the seal" until the end, remaining faithful to the demands of his Baptism, will be able to depart this life "marked with the sign of faith," 88 with his baptismal faith, in expectation of the blessed vision of God - the consummation of faith - and in the hope of resurrection.

St. Paul tells the faithful at Ephesus that they have been “sealed with the promised Holy Spirit.” This is in terms of an indelible character imprinted on the soul in the sacraments of baptism and confirmation. It is not as if this invisible mark is simply decorative. Rather, through it, we are enabled to participate in Christ’s mission and in his offices of priest, prophet, and king. Eph 1:13

Sealed by God eph 1:13 sealed by God (ez 36:25-27) in the ark of salvation by baptism just as Noah was sealed by God in the ark of the flood gen 7:16

1 Pet 3:20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us!
(Ark of Noah a type of the church, member of Christ and his church and salvation by baptism!)
(Outside the ark of Noah none were saved, outside the church (the ark of salvation) none are saved!)

Sealed in the ark, sealed in the church the ark of salvation by God thru baptism!


Christ instituted the holy church to teach and sanctify all men unto eternal salvation. (repent and believe the gospel) with the institution of the sacraments to convey grace to sanctify souls!
Matt 28:19

“Faith alone” accomplishes nothing!
1 cor 13:2 even all faith (alone) without charity avails NOTHING!!!

Faith and baptism!

Scripture says none of the things about “Faith alone”!

Only James 2:24 a man is justified by works and not by “faith alone”

2 Peter 1:11
For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

The Christian sacrament of baptism is the Initiation into the new covenant and must be ministered to you by the apostles!
 
Every day is God's day
But make double sure that Saturday is a day you do no work and that you fellowship with the brethern.
The Sabbath is Holy, not to be profaned. = No work + Torah study.
The other 6 days you can work 24/7 if you like. ..well Sabbath starts 6pm Friday, and ends in my book Sunday sunrise.
I am a Christian, and not an OT Jew.
I am dead to the Law, and not subject to the Law's ordinances.
The Law, and the prophets, were all shadows of things to come.
There is no need to keep honoring the "shadows", as the real rest of God has come.

Everyday is the Lord's day.

Scripture, please.

Which is it ?
Mal 1:11 For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the Lord of hosts.
