That is a great question and as several may have said, the scripture doesn't reveal why.
Here's what I find interesting,
We know John was the forerunner preparing the way for the Lord.
He was to bring in what was prophesied by the Prophets.
When he required of Jesus the Lord reminded him a passage from Isaiah, which he also stated when he begin his ministry in
Luke 4:17-21.
I believe the Holyspirit was on John his entire life to fulfill his ministry which was to prepare the way for the Lord.
It's also interesting John was never given a visual description of Jesus to identify him. Just that he would see the spirit descending and remaining on him.
John 1:31-34. And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
And I knew him not: BUT HE THAT SENT ME TO BAPTIZE WITH WATER, THE SAME SAID UNTO ME, UPON WHOM THOU SHALT SEE THE SPIRIT DESCENDING, AND REMAINING ON HIM, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.
John ministry was unique and was to bring to Israel what was prophesied. And when that was done he said this.
"He must increase, but I must decrease.
He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.
He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. John 3:30-34."
John was mighty in bringing in our Lord, afterwards he decreased.
Jesus is the only one given the spirit without measure.
Deity is the only explanation for all that He was and all that He did.
(1) He was pre-existent with the Father. "The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made" ( John 1:2, 3, KJV). (Also see John 17:5 and Colossians 1:17.)
(2) He is the Son of God.
His enemies admitted: "He...said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God" ( John 5:18, KJV).
Peter confessed: "And we believe and are sure that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God" ( John 6:69, KJV).
Jesus affirmed: "I and my Father are one" ( John 10:30, NIV).
(3) He was sinless, as only God can be.
Jesus challenged His enemies: "Which of you convinceth me of sin?" ( John 8:46, KJV).
Peter testified: "...Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example that ye should follow his steps: who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth" ( 1 Peter 2:21, 22, KJV).
Paul stated: "For he...made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him" ( 2 Corinthians 5:21, KJV).
(4) He forgives sin, as only God can.
The Scribes said: "Who can forgive sins but God only?" ( Mark 2:7, KJV).
Jesus said: "But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins..." ( Matthew 9:6, KJV). (Also see John 8:11.)
Peter wrote: "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed" ( 1 Peter 2:24, KJV).
(5) He performed miraculous works.
He healed the sick: Matthew 8:9-13; Luke 4:31-44; 5:12-15; John 4:43 to 5:16; and other references.
He fed the hungry: John 6; Mark 8, etc.
He raised the dead: Luke 7:11-18; John 11:1-46.
Jesus Christ Became Man:
"And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us...full of grace and truth" ( John 1:14, KJV). (See also Philippians 2:7, 8.)
According to Strongs Exhaustive Concordance of the KJV Bible there are three variant Greek words translated devils.
The root word in his Greek dictionary of the New Testament is:
1142.
Transliteration daimn (Key)
Pronunciation dah'-ee-mown
Part of Speech masculine/feminine noun
Root Word (Etymology) From daio (to distribute fortunes)
a daemon or super-natural spirit (of a bad nature); - devil.
Matthew 8:31; Mark 5:12; Revelation 16:14; Revelation 18:2.
1139.
Transliteration daimonizomai (Key)
Pronunciation dahee-mon-id'-zom-ahee
Part of Speech verb
Root Word (Etymology) Middle voice from (G1142)
to be exercised by a daemon;-have a (be vexed with, be possessed with) devil (-s).
Matthew 4:24; Matthew 8:16; Matthew 8:28; Mark 1:32; Luke 4:36
1140.
Transliteration daimonion (Key)
Pronunciation dahee-mon'-ee-on
Part of Speech neuter noun
Root Word (Etymology) Neuter of a derivative of (G1142)
a demonic being; by extension a diety:-devil, god.
Matthew 7:22; Matthew 9:34; Matthew 10:8; Matthew 12:24,27,28; Mark 1:34,39; Mark 3:15,22; Mark 6:13; Mark 9:38; Mark 16:9,17; Luke 4:41; Luke 8:2,27,30,33,35,38; Luke 9:1,49; Luke 10:17; Luke 12:15,18,19,20; Luke 13:32; 1 Corinthians 10:20-21; 1 Timothy 4:1; James 2:19; Revelation 9:20.
demon - The Modern English word demon derives from the Middle English demon: from medieval Latin demon, from Latin daemon, from Greek daimn 'deity, genius'; in demon; also from Latin daemonium 'lesser or evil spirit', from Greek daemonion, diminutive of daimn.
devils - The Modern English word devil derives from the Middle English devel, from the Old English dofol, that in turn represents an early Germanic borrowing of the Latin diabolus.
The KJV translation is not a word for word or uniquely and infallible inspired representation of the Greek New Testament, and we should be cautious in choosing which English words in it we want to make our hills to die on without first consulting the Greek.
Note Genesis 3:24 "drove out the man" singular, Genesis 3:23, "from the Garden of Eden" Genesis 3:22, "the man" is become like one of us, to know good & evil" is this religion?
* Note, Genesis 4:14 ._._." everyone thst findeth me shall slay._." proof more people in earth. Genesis 4:15,
* Genesis 4:16, appears she was from Nod.
Likewise in Genesis 4:23, the man that was slain wasn't mentioned here.
If you read & study the WORD of GOD, many times you will notice names & several other details are left out at times. 1Kings 17:9-24, same Widow? = Luke 4:26, Luke 7:12, Luke 21:2-3, yet many names are mentioned, when studying often times their names come up again, helping understand a more vast picture. Genesis 6:1-2, is this also in reference to Genesis 4:19, ?
Note Genesis 5, generation of Adam leaves out Cain, Abel & all other people. Again: Genesis 5:1-2, Gen 5:3, "male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day they were created" = them, their, they.
Dearest Brother Remember One very important thing here
John 5:39 You search the scriptures for in them you think you have eternal life and these are they which testify of Me, But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.???
We are in Spirit with Christ Not flesh, it is the Spirit that guides you to the Truth Not a Man called preacher or a building called church. The Spirit is free outside.
We are Not Christ Yeshua for he was perfect.
I heal on the Sabbath if God sends me to do his will.
Now you gave me LUKE 4:18 let me show you.
The Spirit of he Lord is upon Me
because He Has ANOINTED ME.
To preach the gospel to the poor
He has sent Me to Heal the brokenhearted etc
Can you see ANOINTED ME who is Anointed dear brother do you think every church in the World has this Anointed pastor or priest.
NO we are the Church You and Me and if you have been Anointed you will know because we hear the Father speak to our hearts and we go where he tells us to go.
If we teach or Heal on the Sabbath its because he has asked us to.
99.9% of building called church has NO Anointed Man nor Women dear Brother. This why our Father calls you out of them.
Gods servants walk with God outside and touch people in secret. We are NOT Christ for thousand to follow us NO
We find you in secret dear Brother....God shows us where you are. You are called the Little Church and his little flock does Not sit in a Building made with hands. ACT 17:24 God Dose NOT dwell in a Temple made with hands.
JOHN 14:17 The Spirit of Truth whom the world CANNOT receive because it neither sees Him nor Knows Him but you know Him for He dwells with you and will be in You. Now if any of you had this Spirit of Truth you would not be questioning the Sabbath Day Saturday for you would know not to be sitting a church on the Sabbath for some pastor to be teaching a Child of God.
Get out of the Building come and Sit with your Heavenly Father God on the Sabbath and feel HIM.God bless you
You ever notice after a wedding difference people will focus details on certain aspects of things? Sometimes it's things that you yourself didn't notice or didn't seem as significant as something else. Some talk about the cake, another about the people that attended, another can't get over how white the dress was, others saw the doves released.
There's also differences in personalities It may be one of reasons that Jesus chose the varying difference in people that wrote the Gospels. Knowing each would have a unique perspective & emphasis on different details.
Matthew speaks much about angels, major significant events pertaining angels. Matthew 4:6,11, Matthew 13:39,41,49, Matthew 18:10, Matthew 22:30, Matthew 24:31,36, Matthew 25:31-46, Matthew 26:53, in context: Matthew 26,
Mark 1:13, Mark 8:38, these following 3 Matthew & Mark both discuss: Mark 12:25, Mark 13:27,32,
Luke has emphasise on several events others do not mention: Luke 1, Luke 2, but, like Matthew & Mark mention Luke 4:10,
Luke 9:26, mentioned by atleast 1 other. Luke 12:8,9,
You asked also if the others were present or witnessed the angels, it looks like Luke 24:23, testifies to that question. & John 20:12, testifies to angels being present.
I also observe Sabbath on Saturdays. Luke 4:16 as provided in one of your replies is also advising when the Lord's Day is. As for those who worship on Sundays, I feel they had been lead to believe a false belief that Sunday is the Lords Day. I have come by this false belief through bible study and reading the Lords Word KJV as well as other material. National Sunday Law by A Jan Marcussen is a read many people of FAITH should take the time to read. It will explain "Who, How and When" the Sabbath was changed to a Sunday. It is not a secret and you are able to refer to what is written to the Lords Word and writings/ Bibliography. it is a constitution from Emperor Constantine who introduced Sunday Worship as Law in 321 A.D, is the earliest recognition of Sunday as a legal duty. Here are a couple of the references you can go to. The Latin original is in the Codes Justinian (Codes of Justinian), lib 3, title 12, lex. 3, Philip Schaff's, History of the Christian Church, Vol 3 3d period, chapter 7, sec 75 pg 380, footnote 1. The last days is near and there are so many Christians who have been mislead and given false scriptures and teachings that it breaks my heart and also our Lord Jesus Christ.
Daniel 7:25
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
Ezekiel 20:12,
Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them.
Ezekiel 20:16
Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
You stated: "When the Sabbath Ends that is why we go to Church on Sunday."
Jesus regularly went to teach, fellowship, and heal in the synagogue/church on Saturday - the Sabbath Day.
Luke 4:16
"And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read."
Jesus set examples like the above, for us to follow. Why would we not follow Jesus lead on this, and worship and help others on Saturday/Sabbath Day as He did?
Also, I said, and I do believe that I am correct; that we can go to church at anytime, on any day. But, if you believe I am in error, on any of the above, please provide me with scripture to the contrary, and I will review, and change if I am wrong.
Deuteronomy 28, note: Deuteronomy 28:58, Deuteronomy 28:15, Deuteronomy 28:28, Matthew 15:22-28, Matthew 17:14-21, Mark 5:2-13, Mark 7:27-30, Luke 4:33-43, Luke 8:26-40, Luke 9:35-50, Acts 10:38, James 4:7, 1John 3:8, Jude 1:9,
Satan is permitted, for a time, to rule over the majority in this world as we see when he tempted Jesus, Luke 4:6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
We see again Satan who deceived the whole world when he is cast down to earth permanently, Revelation 12:7-9. He then gives his power, his seat, and authority to the beast over the world, Revelation 13:2. But Satan is limited in accordance with God's will and he dwells in darkness and that is the boundary of his territory. Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
That is why we must do as in Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
If we walk in the Spirit and the true light is in us, darkness will have nothing to do with us, we have victory in Christ. The time is coming when Satan is cast down and gives his authority to the beast, those of us who are still living will see the darkest time and go through it, Jesus does not return until after the tribulations of those days, Matthew 24:29-31Mark 13:24-27.
So, walk in the light and not in the manners of the world where there is darkness.
Just wanted to bring clarity to what I posted and what has been presented. I used 2 Corinthians 4:4. You see the work of Satan that hinders the mind of most of the world.
All the blessings mentioned in the other post is offered to the "whole world" but few will receive it. Mathew 7:13-14.
The Lord is calling a people OUT of the world."His Church" starting with the Apostles who was to be a whiteness but to be separate from the world where Satan is the prince.
Here is just a few scripture references of the Lord and our relationship to the world as we stand.
John 17:9-16.
John 12:31.
1 John 2:15-17.
John 1:6-12.
In Revelation-12:9. Scripture says Satan deceives the whole world. You see by then the church is taken out of the world Gods children Will be with him, They're children of the light. Satan is the ruler of darkness. Ephesians 6:12.
When a person is not born again "Born from above", He is what is called "In the flesh" and that flesh is controlled by principalities, powers, and rulers of darkness. His father is the prince of this world! Satan rules in his heart.
The Lord came to give you a NEW heart and a new spirit as he promised the Jews in Ezekiel 36:26-27.
More references:
Beginning with Luke 4:5-7. Here you see Satan tries to temp Jesus to bypass the cross where he will bruise Satans head and have the final climax in Revelation.
Did you notice, Jesus never refuted satans claim?
This is why Paul stated this in Romans 8:19-22.
This is why Abraham pitched tents looking for a land who's maker is God.
Peter says we are strangers and pilgrims.
When Christ come set up his literal kingdom he will rule with a rod of iron and rule in mans heart.
1 Cor 12 is the chapter you need to read concerning spiritual gifts. The Book of Acts records the acts of the disciples in obedience to Jesus great commission to go into all the world carrying the message of repentence, baptism in His Name and the receiving of the Holy Ghost they had experienced. I cannot give you all you need to know in this format, but Jesus said, "If you seek, you shall find." First, repent, be baptized into the new covenant , in Jesus Name, then you shall receive the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. Acts 2:38 This is the new birth and essential to be a disciple of Jesus and do what the original disciples did. Be careful that you believe God's Word and not allow, as Eve, the voice of the deceiver, satan to cause you to question God's Word, for the Word of God will be the judge of our lives, whether we have obeyed it. Rev. 19:11-21. The very fact that you are seeking understanding is a sign that the Spirit of God wants to lead you into all that Jesus died to give humanity. Except the Spirit of God draws man to Him, they cannot be saved from His wrath and many have hardened their hearts and are refusing to believe that God is the only God, who made a fleshly body for Himself and lived, taught, suffered Calvary, was buried and rose again to leave us the example and the plan of redemption from our state of sin into which all are born. God chooses to use people to speak His words because He is God and we must obey Him even though we will never understand His ways, nor His thoughts, for that is why we must know Him, love Him and trust Him in faith that He will do what His Word has said. Luke 4:4 Jesus said,"Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." Jesus is the answer to all your questions, so seek Him and His presence and study His Word, for He is the Word made flesh.
I will pray that God lead you into greater revelation of Him and the relationship He desires to have with humanity.
Mark 16:1 "And when the Sabbath was past" (the 7th day) 2. "And very early in the morning the first day of the week..." (Sunday) How can this be misinterpreted? Luke 23:54 And that day was the preparation, and the Sabbath drew on. 56. ....they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the Sabbath day according to the commandment. Luke24:1 Now on the first day of the week... (Sunday) early in the morning, they came to the sepulcher...
Luke 4:16 ....and as his custom was He (Jesus) went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day.... Luke 13:10 ...and He (Jesus) was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. Genesis 1:5....He called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. Genesis 2:2...and on the seventh day God ended his work which He had made. 3 And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it. (to set apart, to declare Holy)
Exodus 20:8-11 (4th commandment) Remember the Sabbath day to keep it Holy. Six days shalt thou labor and do all thy work, but the 7th day is the Sabbath. So we have established that the preparation day and the Sabbath drew on....was Friday. The Sabbath was the 7th day.... Saturday. He rose very early the first day of the week...Sunday. The Sabbath was established in the first week of creation to commemorate his work. A reminder that he is Creator God. The sabbath commandment starts with...remember. God knew that someday the world was going to forget the true Sabbath and worship a man made Sabbath. This happened under Constantine in the 3rd century when he declared Sunday to be a National day of rest. But he could not change the true Sabbath. He could only counterfeit a new day of rest. Then the Roman Catholic Church established it as a "Holy Day" but it was not Gods holy day. The Catholic Church claims the change and declares it as a "Mark" of their authority! There's that word "mark." Could it be the "Mark" of the Beast is making the false Sabbath (Sun day) law?

A good REFERENCE Study Bible (KJV)with a "center column reference cross scriptures" is very God for cross reading other relevant passages. It's the best.
We see the kinsman redeemer in Leviticus 25:25. and we see it carried out in the book of Ruth chapters 1-4.
we see in Revelation 5:1-5. we see a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. and no one was able to open the book but the Lord Jesus. If you notice verse 3 it had to be a "MAN"/Human. And he had to be able. Perfect/Sinless. and he has to be willing. This could only happen by the deity of Christ in his Human form.
(His deity, He cannot sin.) (His humanity, He can take on our sin.) His humanity makes him our kinsman redeemer.

Jesus chose not to sin. He is the perfect Lamb of God. His sacrifice for us was acceptable and accepted.
By faith Abraham obeyed God and almost sacrificed Isaac. The willingness and obedience is what saved US.
Generations flew by, bring the sinless blood of Jesus through generations of ancestors; until Joseph and Mary. Jesus would be fully God and LEGALLY human. Satan isn't human. He is an outlaw spirit/fired archangel.
Satan didn't know the plan. All he knew was Genesis 3:15. Many times attempts were made against Jesus in his ministry but he was protected by God. On the day of the fulfilling of Isaiah 61/ Luke 4:18__They tried to stone Jesus.
When Jesus was fasting 40 days He was tempted by satan. Jesus fought back with scriptures. He never sinned in 33 years. He did it FOR US! His children. He fulfilled every single prophesy spoken about Him. Look at the charts on Google. Every jot, every tittle.
The day Jesus was crucified Satan turned the crowd into a demon and Jesus was found guilty. If Satan knew the plan, he would not of done that. THE PLAN WAS THAT THE sinless Son of God would die for sinful mankind: dead, alive and future. He would also TAKE WHAT SATAN STOLE FROM Adam. DOMINION, and the KEYS. He stripped Satan. Hanging on the Cross, Jesus's Blood ran down the Cross into the EARTH. Jesus secured ALL AUTHORITY.
He gave us permission to use HIS NAME, HIS POWER, HIS LEGAL AUTHORITY__to absolutely act in His Will towards earth and man; Satan and demons.
OUR PRAYER LIFE could be powerful. We're Not orphans. We are children OF THE KING OF KINGS, LORD OF lords.
Pray for the lost to come to Jesus. Fight against their spiritual chains of sin. Like Jesus did, Use the Scriptures. Those are your weapons to use against spiritually deaf and blind, sinners.
GO YE MEANS EVERYBODY. The Lord of the Harvest is waiting on the BODY OF CHRIST to join with THE HEAD. Jesus!! Do it.

It's also interesting John was never given a visual description of Jesus to identify him. Just that he would see the spirit descending and remaining on him.
John 1:31-34. And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
And I knew him not: BUT HE THAT SENT ME TO BAPTIZE WITH WATER, THE SAME SAID UNTO ME, UPON WHOM THOU SHALT SEE THE SPIRIT DESCENDING, AND REMAINING ON HIM, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.
John ministry was unique and was to bring to Israel what was prophesied. And when that was done he said this.
"He must increase, but I must decrease.
He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.
He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. John 3:30-34."
John was mighty in bringing in our Lord, afterwards he decreased.
Jesus is the only one given the spirit without measure.
Just a thought.
God bless.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
Jesus gave us the Lords Prayer as a frame so we could fit our daily prayers into each verse. He starts the prayer__OUR FATHER
So that's what I pray personally. Respectfully I say In Jesus Name at the end.
Then I pray Luke 4:18-19, and follow with Matthew 9:37-38; that I might be anointed and sent; that day.

Deity is the only explanation for all that He was and all that He did.
(1) He was pre-existent with the Father. "The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made" ( John 1:2, 3, KJV). (Also see John 17:5 and Colossians 1:17.)
(2) He is the Son of God.
His enemies admitted: "He...said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God" ( John 5:18, KJV).
Peter confessed: "And we believe and are sure that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God" ( John 6:69, KJV).
Jesus affirmed: "I and my Father are one" ( John 10:30, NIV).
(3) He was sinless, as only God can be.
Jesus challenged His enemies: "Which of you convinceth me of sin?" ( John 8:46, KJV).
Peter testified: "...Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example that ye should follow his steps: who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth" ( 1 Peter 2:21, 22, KJV).
Paul stated: "For he...made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him" ( 2 Corinthians 5:21, KJV).
(4) He forgives sin, as only God can.
The Scribes said: "Who can forgive sins but God only?" ( Mark 2:7, KJV).
Jesus said: "But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins..." ( Matthew 9:6, KJV). (Also see John 8:11.)
Peter wrote: "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed" ( 1 Peter 2:24, KJV).
(5) He performed miraculous works.
He healed the sick: Matthew 8:9-13; Luke 4:31-44; 5:12-15; John 4:43 to 5:16; and other references.
He fed the hungry: John 6; Mark 8, etc.
He raised the dead: Luke 7:11-18; John 11:1-46.
Jesus Christ Became Man:
"And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us...full of grace and truth" ( John 1:14, KJV). (See also Philippians 2:7, 8.)

Matthew 7:22; Matthew 9:34; Matthew 10:8; Matthew 12:24,27,28; Mark 1:34,39; Mark 3:15,22; Mark 6:13; Mark 9:38; Mark 16:9,17; Luke 4:41; Luke 8:2,27,30,33,35,38; Luke 9:1,49; Luke 10:17; Luke 12:15,18,19,20; Luke 13:32; 1 Corinthians 10:20-21; 1 Timothy 4:1; James 2:19; Revelation 9:20.
demon - The Modern English word demon derives from the Middle English demon: from medieval Latin demon, from Latin daemon, from Greek daimn 'deity, genius'; in demon; also from Latin daemonium 'lesser or evil spirit', from Greek daemonion, diminutive of daimn.
devils - The Modern English word devil derives from the Middle English devel, from the Old English dofol, that in turn represents an early Germanic borrowing of the Latin diabolus.
The KJV translation is not a word for word or uniquely and infallible inspired representation of the Greek New Testament, and we should be cautious in choosing which English words in it we want to make our hills to die on without first consulting the Greek.
Note Genesis 3:24 "drove out the man" singular, Genesis 3:23, "from the Garden of Eden" Genesis 3:22, "the man" is become like one of us, to know good & evil" is this religion?
* Note, Genesis 4:14 ._._." everyone thst findeth me shall slay._." proof more people in earth. Genesis 4:15,
* Genesis 4:16, appears she was from Nod.
Likewise in Genesis 4:23, the man that was slain wasn't mentioned here.
If you read & study the WORD of GOD, many times you will notice names & several other details are left out at times. 1Kings 17:9-24, same Widow? = Luke 4:26, Luke 7:12, Luke 21:2-3, yet many names are mentioned, when studying often times their names come up again, helping understand a more vast picture. Genesis 6:1-2, is this also in reference to Genesis 4:19, ?
Note Genesis 5, generation of Adam leaves out Cain, Abel & all other people. Again: Genesis 5:1-2, Gen 5:3, "male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day they were created" = them, their, they.

John 5:39 You search the scriptures for in them you think you have eternal life and these are they which testify of Me, But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.???
We are in Spirit with Christ Not flesh, it is the Spirit that guides you to the Truth Not a Man called preacher or a building called church. The Spirit is free outside.
We are Not Christ Yeshua for he was perfect.
I heal on the Sabbath if God sends me to do his will.
Now you gave me LUKE 4:18 let me show you.
The Spirit of he Lord is upon Me
because He Has ANOINTED ME.
To preach the gospel to the poor
He has sent Me to Heal the brokenhearted etc
Can you see ANOINTED ME who is Anointed dear brother do you think every church in the World has this Anointed pastor or priest.
NO we are the Church You and Me and if you have been Anointed you will know because we hear the Father speak to our hearts and we go where he tells us to go.
If we teach or Heal on the Sabbath its because he has asked us to.
99.9% of building called church has NO Anointed Man nor Women dear Brother. This why our Father calls you out of them.
Gods servants walk with God outside and touch people in secret. We are NOT Christ for thousand to follow us NO
We find you in secret dear Brother....God shows us where you are. You are called the Little Church and his little flock does Not sit in a Building made with hands. ACT 17:24 God Dose NOT dwell in a Temple made with hands.
JOHN 14:17 The Spirit of Truth whom the world CANNOT receive because it neither sees Him nor Knows Him but you know Him for He dwells with you and will be in You. Now if any of you had this Spirit of Truth you would not be questioning the Sabbath Day Saturday for you would know not to be sitting a church on the Sabbath for some pastor to be teaching a Child of God.
Get out of the Building come and Sit with your Heavenly Father God on the Sabbath and feel HIM.God bless you
You ever notice after a wedding difference people will focus details on certain aspects of things? Sometimes it's things that you yourself didn't notice or didn't seem as significant as something else. Some talk about the cake, another about the people that attended, another can't get over how white the dress was, others saw the doves released.
There's also differences in personalities It may be one of reasons that Jesus chose the varying difference in people that wrote the Gospels. Knowing each would have a unique perspective & emphasis on different details.
Matthew speaks much about angels, major significant events pertaining angels. Matthew 4:6,11, Matthew 13:39,41,49, Matthew 18:10, Matthew 22:30, Matthew 24:31,36, Matthew 25:31-46, Matthew 26:53, in context: Matthew 26,
Mark 1:13, Mark 8:38, these following 3 Matthew & Mark both discuss: Mark 12:25, Mark 13:27,32,
Luke has emphasise on several events others do not mention: Luke 1, Luke 2, but, like Matthew & Mark mention Luke 4:10,
Luke 9:26, mentioned by atleast 1 other. Luke 12:8,9,
You asked also if the others were present or witnessed the angels, it looks like Luke 24:23, testifies to that question. & John 20:12, testifies to angels being present.
John also notes John 20:30-31, John 21:25,
Hopefully this is helpful
I also observe Sabbath on Saturdays. Luke 4:16 as provided in one of your replies is also advising when the Lord's Day is. As for those who worship on Sundays, I feel they had been lead to believe a false belief that Sunday is the Lords Day. I have come by this false belief through bible study and reading the Lords Word KJV as well as other material. National Sunday Law by A Jan Marcussen is a read many people of FAITH should take the time to read. It will explain "Who, How and When" the Sabbath was changed to a Sunday. It is not a secret and you are able to refer to what is written to the Lords Word and writings/ Bibliography. it is a constitution from Emperor Constantine who introduced Sunday Worship as Law in 321 A.D, is the earliest recognition of Sunday as a legal duty. Here are a couple of the references you can go to. The Latin original is in the Codes Justinian (Codes of Justinian), lib 3, title 12, lex. 3, Philip Schaff's, History of the Christian Church, Vol 3 3d period, chapter 7, sec 75 pg 380, footnote 1. The last days is near and there are so many Christians who have been mislead and given false scriptures and teachings that it breaks my heart and also our Lord Jesus Christ.
Daniel 7:25
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
Ezekiel 20:12,
Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them.
Ezekiel 20:16
Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
Happy Sabbath
Thank you for your response and input.
You stated: "When the Sabbath Ends that is why we go to Church on Sunday."
Jesus regularly went to teach, fellowship, and heal in the synagogue/church on Saturday - the Sabbath Day.
Luke 4:16
"And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read."
Jesus set examples like the above, for us to follow. Why would we not follow Jesus lead on this, and worship and help others on Saturday/Sabbath Day as He did?
Also, I said, and I do believe that I am correct; that we can go to church at anytime, on any day. But, if you believe I am in error, on any of the above, please provide me with scripture to the contrary, and I will review, and change if I am wrong.
God Bless

Satan is permitted, for a time, to rule over the majority in this world as we see when he tempted Jesus, Luke 4:6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
We see again Satan who deceived the whole world when he is cast down to earth permanently, Revelation 12:7-9. He then gives his power, his seat, and authority to the beast over the world, Revelation 13:2. But Satan is limited in accordance with God's will and he dwells in darkness and that is the boundary of his territory. Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
That is why we must do as in Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
If we walk in the Spirit and the true light is in us, darkness will have nothing to do with us, we have victory in Christ. The time is coming when Satan is cast down and gives his authority to the beast, those of us who are still living will see the darkest time and go through it, Jesus does not return until after the tribulations of those days, Matthew 24:29-31 Mark 13:24-27.
So, walk in the light and not in the manners of the world where there is darkness.
God bless,
RLW
Ephesians 6:12.
Just wanted to bring clarity to what I posted and what has been presented. I used 2 Corinthians 4:4. You see the work of Satan that hinders the mind of most of the world.
All the blessings mentioned in the other post is offered to the "whole world" but few will receive it. Mathew 7:13-14.
The Lord is calling a people OUT of the world."His Church" starting with the Apostles who was to be a whiteness but to be separate from the world where Satan is the prince.
Here is just a few scripture references of the Lord and our relationship to the world as we stand.
John 17:9-16.
John 12:31.
1 John 2:15-17.
John 1:6-12.
In Revelation-12:9. Scripture says Satan deceives the whole world. You see by then the church is taken out of the world Gods children Will be with him, They're children of the light. Satan is the ruler of darkness. Ephesians 6:12.
When a person is not born again "Born from above", He is what is called "In the flesh" and that flesh is controlled by principalities, powers, and rulers of darkness. His father is the prince of this world! Satan rules in his heart.
The Lord came to give you a NEW heart and a new spirit as he promised the Jews in Ezekiel 36:26-27.
More references:
Beginning with Luke 4:5-7. Here you see Satan tries to temp Jesus to bypass the cross where he will bruise Satans head and have the final climax in Revelation.
Did you notice, Jesus never refuted satans claim?
This is why Paul stated this in Romans 8:19-22.
This is why Abraham pitched tents looking for a land who's maker is God.
Peter says we are strangers and pilgrims.
When Christ come set up his literal kingdom he will rule with a rod of iron and rule in mans heart.
That has not happened yet.
God bless.
I will pray that God lead you into greater revelation of Him and the relationship He desires to have with humanity.
In Jesus Name.
Luke 4:16 ....and as his custom was He (Jesus) went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day.... Luke 13:10 ...and He (Jesus) was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. Genesis 1:5....He called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. Genesis 2:2...and on the seventh day God ended his work which He had made. 3 And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it. (to set apart, to declare Holy)
Exodus 20:8-11 (4th commandment) Remember the Sabbath day to keep it Holy. Six days shalt thou labor and do all thy work, but the 7th day is the Sabbath. So we have established that the preparation day and the Sabbath drew on....was Friday. The Sabbath was the 7th day.... Saturday. He rose very early the first day of the week...Sunday. The Sabbath was established in the first week of creation to commemorate his work. A reminder that he is Creator God. The sabbath commandment starts with...remember. God knew that someday the world was going to forget the true Sabbath and worship a man made Sabbath. This happened under Constantine in the 3rd century when he declared Sunday to be a National day of rest. But he could not change the true Sabbath. He could only counterfeit a new day of rest. Then the Roman Catholic Church established it as a "Holy Day" but it was not Gods holy day. The Catholic Church claims the change and declares it as a "Mark" of their authority! There's that word "mark." Could it be the "Mark" of the Beast is making the false Sabbath (Sun day) law?

1 Corinthians 12:1-31 explains all the gifts, titled, administrations that God gives to the Church that Jesus has planted on earth Now.
Those that He calls, he anoints for the work. Luke 4:18. The Bible says the gifts and callings are without revocation. If we try to operate without the Holy Spirits anointing; we will not bear good fruit. Can even become apostate.
It's not something to treat carelessly. The Head of the Church is Jesus Christ. All parts of the Body are connected to Jesus.
God lives outside of time and inside of time.
Romans 1 says that if we dispute the evidence of the reality of God; we are without excuse.
I'm not debating this. It's for whomsoever Will believe God is. Can the clay say to the Potter, " what are you doing?!!
A good REFERENCE Study Bible (KJV)with a "center column reference cross scriptures" is very God for cross reading other relevant passages. It's the best.
We see the kinsman redeemer in Leviticus 25:25. and we see it carried out in the book of Ruth chapters 1-4.
we see in Revelation 5:1-5. we see a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. and no one was able to open the book but the Lord Jesus. If you notice verse 3 it had to be a "MAN"/Human. And he had to be able. Perfect/Sinless. and he has to be willing. This could only happen by the deity of Christ in his Human form.
(His deity, He cannot sin.) (His humanity, He can take on our sin.) His humanity makes him our kinsman redeemer.

sinless blood also spirit holy and a body that was subjected to all the five senses input from the world. In his
whole life He walked perfectly with His Father I.E. saying the right thing being at the right place at the right time
remember he read the word also and new it luke 4:17 He found the place where it was written, there were no
punctuation marks or chapter headings in the scrolls, also the number of times he quoted to the religious leaders
exactly using scripture with two edge sword precision. So He studied and knew who he was and who sent Him.

Generations flew by, bring the sinless blood of Jesus through generations of ancestors; until Joseph and Mary. Jesus would be fully God and LEGALLY human. Satan isn't human. He is an outlaw spirit/fired archangel.
Satan didn't know the plan. All he knew was Genesis 3:15. Many times attempts were made against Jesus in his ministry but he was protected by God. On the day of the fulfilling of Isaiah 61/ Luke 4:18__They tried to stone Jesus.
When Jesus was fasting 40 days He was tempted by satan. Jesus fought back with scriptures. He never sinned in 33 years. He did it FOR US! His children. He fulfilled every single prophesy spoken about Him. Look at the charts on Google. Every jot, every tittle.
The day Jesus was crucified Satan turned the crowd into a demon and Jesus was found guilty. If Satan knew the plan, he would not of done that. THE PLAN WAS THAT THE sinless Son of God would die for sinful mankind: dead, alive and future. He would also TAKE WHAT SATAN STOLE FROM Adam. DOMINION, and the KEYS. He stripped Satan. Hanging on the Cross, Jesus's Blood ran down the Cross into the EARTH. Jesus secured ALL AUTHORITY.
He gave us permission to use HIS NAME, HIS POWER, HIS LEGAL AUTHORITY__to absolutely act in His Will towards earth and man; Satan and demons.
OUR PRAYER LIFE could be powerful. We're Not orphans. We are children OF THE KING OF KINGS, LORD OF lords.
Pray for the lost to come to Jesus. Fight against their spiritual chains of sin. Like Jesus did, Use the Scriptures. Those are your weapons to use against spiritually deaf and blind, sinners.
GO YE MEANS EVERYBODY. The Lord of the Harvest is waiting on the BODY OF CHRIST to join with THE HEAD. Jesus!! Do it.

about Jesus Christ and the family.
This full thought of the scriptures you want clarity on : Acts 10:26-46, starts in Acts 10:10-15, with the vision.
Acts 10:28 , I believe Peter was referring to Leviticus 10:10-11, Old Testament Law,
Acts 10:26, Peter didn't want Cornelius to worship him, or reverence him that way, he corrected him.
Mark 1:1-11, Luke 3:21-22, Luke 4:14-15,
Mark 16:6-17, New tongues, Jesus risen from the (grave), ate with them,
