No this not Sesame Street. Brought to you by the letter Q.

This is about Scripture.

So before you bolt.... This won't take long.

3
Representing God shown as 3 persons. No it's not 3 gods. It's one God manifested in the Trinity.

Like an apple is only one apple with skin, meat or flesh, and seeds or core.

One fruit three visually manageable parts.

7
Creation. God spoke the universe into existence in six days and rested on the seventh.

Each segment of the creation had: a habitat and then an inhabitant.

This was a very short process engineered to look very old so we would have a mental picture of Him.

8
This is the first day if the second week.

The significance is taught to Abraham in the obedience of circumcision. This was a new practice for him and his descendants. To teach us to separate from the unnecessary flesh.

Yes, the foreskin is not necessary. And it is very much a part of Christian faith now as it was then.

It very much teaches us the object lesson of resurrection.

It happens on the eighth day

He who has ears let him hear

I have learned the hard way that foreskin is not unnecessary flesh. It's an important lubricant to ease up sex and has 20000 nerve ending to increase sexual pleasure.

If you want to make that quite significant sacrifice to your god then it's up to you. But a child can't make or consent to that sacrifice. Than't something only an adult can do.

Leave children alone and sacrifice your foreskin when you reach adulthood.

Precisely why Paul wrote in Galatians 5:2 that if you accept circumcision. Christ is of no value to you. Thank you for having the courage to stand up for Jesus! And His Resurrection!
