concerning issues such as these days of observance, whatever they are.
I believe the following verse, which Paul wrote twice in the scripture tell us this to be true. So what Phil does, or anyone else concerning certain issues, that is up to them. And I believe that because of what is written in 1st Cor. 6:
12. All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
And again he said almost the same identical thing in 1st Cor. 10:
23. All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
The problem is, sometimes we think everybody should be doing the same thing we are doing about almost everything. And that is not true. Not that it hurts to discuss it either. Because discussion keeps us balanced when we do celebrate and when we do not celebrate, making sure we are not in bondage to doing either way, but are doing what the Lord is telling us personally we should be doing for whatever reason He has for doing so, because we abide in Him, thus being bound to Him as His wife.
That is what I believe.
luv ya,
