QUIZ

    • It is never safe to assume!
    • Assuming can lead to persecuting others who do not believe as you do.
    • If a belief is based on a faulty assumption, the religious practice or observance will be in error.
    • Assumptions show you really do not know why you believe what you say you do.
    • That is how they were raised.
    • That is when church services are held.
    • The Roman Catholic Church says to do so.
    • They believe Christ was resurrected on Sunday and the day should be honored.
    • Everyone else does then!
    • It is the day before when the Catholic Church worships, so it must be right.
    • Because it is the seventh day of the week, therefore it must be the Bible Sabbath.
    • The fourth commandment says to worship on Saturday and the commandments are still binding, so they worship on Saturday.
    • That the modern week has cycled continuously and without interruption ever since Creation.
    • That as long as you are keeping the day your pastor tells you to keep, you are keeping the correct day.
    • That as long as you worship once a week, that is all Yahuwah requires.
    • True.
    • False
    • The solar year.
    • Lunar phases.
    • The sidereal (stellar) calendar.
    • Nothing in nature. It was independent of any astronomical tie.
    • The chair of the National Calendar Committee.
    • The Senator from Rome.
    • The high priest, or pontifex maximus.
    • No one needed to be 'in charge' of the calendar - they just made a new one each year as we do now.
    • A new calendar is printed.
    • Extra days or months are inserted into the year to align the shorter lunar year to the longer solar year.
    • The pontifex maximus declares that a new year has begun.
    • He wanted to - all the emperors did. It was a sign of their power and he wanted to establish a legacy that would be remembered.
    • The pontifex maximus told him that it needed to be.
    • The Roman Senate voted that it be done and he was just obeying them.
    • The months were out of alignment with the seasons and as pontifex maximus he had the right to do it.
    • He was worshipped as a deity and he wanted to prove to the people that he was indeed a deity.
    • Augustus Cæsar, his brother, after whom the month of August is named.
    • The previous pontifext maximus.
    • Sosigenes, an Alexandrian astronomer.
    • The college of pontiffs.
    • Abandon lunar calendation and use a strictly solar calendar.
    • Use the sidereal (stellar) calendar.
    • Just use the Egyptian calendar.
    • Create a perpetual calendar not linked to nature and name it after Julius Cæsar. This would please the emperor and guarantee Sosigenes of a job.
    • Getting permission of the emperor. Julius Cæsar was emperor so this was no problem.
    • How to get the calendar to align the months with the phases of the moon and yet still keep the year with the seasons.
    • Getting people to accept the new change. Most people do not like change and resist it.
    • How to do it. Calendation is complex and mathematical!
    • Was different from the week in use today.
    • Was identical to the week in use today.
    • 10 days long.
    • 8 days long.
    • 6 days long.
    • The third century A.D.
    • The second century A.D.
    • The time of Cæsar Augustus to Tiberius Cæsar (thus spanning the life of Yahushua and the early apostolic ekklesia).
    • Only from the days of Julius Cæsar.
    • True.
    • False.
    • Eight days: six working days; seventh day Sabbath rest; eighth celebration looking forward to Yahushua's death on the cross.
    • Seven days: six working days; seventh day Sabbath rest.
    • Used the sidereal calendar instead.
    • Used the Julian calendar, worshipping on the seventh day of the eight-day Julian week. It was part of rendering unto Cæsar what was Cæsar's and unto Yahuwah what was Yahuwah's.
    • Used the original luni-solar calendar of Creation, ignoring the Roman Julian week.
