View Profile History	keeping the sabbath holy Posted : 29 Apr, 2015 09:14 PM Amen brother! Welcome to the board. I provided a Bible study for all whom are interested. Gods grace to you:bouncy: Sabbath Bible study on the Sabbath. Gen. 2:1-3; Ex. 31:13-17; Heb. 4:1-10 God's rest on the seventh day, following creation, did not set forth an ordinance men observed from the beginning. It foreshadowed the Jewish Sabbath that was instituted after Israel's exodus from Egypt, and the saints' eternal rest (i.e., eternal Sabbath) in heaven. Deut. 5:1-4, 12-14 The Jews were commanded to keep the Sabbath after God freed them from slavery in Egypt. The Sabbath was not given to their fathers (e.g., Adam, Noah, Abraham). The Sabbath was not observed by men until God commanded Israel (after crossing the Red Sea) to observe the Sabbath. Ex. 31:13, 17-18 The Sabbath was a sign of the covenant God made with the Israelites, instituted after their exodus from Egypt. Israel had not previously observed the Sabbath. The Sabbath was not commanded to the Gentiles. Ho. 2:11 Hosea prophesied that God would put an end to sabbaths. God put an end to the observance of Sabbaths at the cross, at which time the Mosaic Law was abolished and put to death (Eph. 2:15-16; Col. 2:13-14). Ex. 31:14; 35:2 Anyone desiring to keep the Sabbath must kill anyone in his household who profanes the Sabbath. Ex. 16:29 If anyone keeps the Sabbath, he must stay at home. Therefore, he cannot go to a church service on the Sabbath. Ex. 16:23; 35:3 If someone keeps the Sabbath, he cannot kindle a fire or cook food on that day. Num. 28:9-10 Anyone keeping the Sabbath must have a Jewish priest offer an animal sacrifice for him. Neh. 9:14 God made His Sabbath known to Israel, not to the Gentiles. Rom. 14:5; Col. 2:16 Christians can observe the Sabbath if they choose. But, they cannot bind it upon other people and they cannot make observance of the Sabbath a part of the church's worship. Heb. 7:12-14 God changed the law. We do not worship on the Sabbath as God commanded the Jews. We must obey Jesus (Heb. 5:9) and worship as He commands, in fulfillment of His law (Gal. 6:2; 1 Cor. 9:21). If we try to worship God as prescribed in the law of Moses, rather than worshiping as commanded in Christ's law, we are severed from Christ and have fallen from grace (Gal. 5:4), and our worship is vain (Mk. 7:6-9). Heb. 8:7-13 Corresponding to the fact that we live under a different law than the Jews who came out of Egypt, we also live under a different covenant (Heb. 8:7-13). The Sabbath was sign of the covenant God made with Israel when they came out of Egypt. When the covenant ceased to exist, the sign also ceased. Men do not keep the Sabbath as a religious ordinance from God today, because the old covenant is no longer in effect. Acts 20:7; 1 Cor. 16:2 The day of worship to partake of the Lord's Supper and take up a collection for the saints is the first day of the week (i.e., Sunday). This day of worship cannot be changed to the seventh day of the week (Col. 3:16-23; 1 Cor. 4:6; Rev. 22:18-19). The first day of the week is the day following the Sabbath. The first day of the week is Sunday (Matt. 28:1; Mk. 16:1-2; Lk. 24:1; Jn. 20:1). Biblestudyguide.org Post Reply

View Profile History	keeping the sabbath holy Posted : 7 May, 2015 10:28 AM There is So much debate and controversy about the Sabbath...Do Gentiles Keep it ?...Are we supposed to ?... I asked God to help me with this...and what I got besides some Scriptures in favor of it and some that make it clear that it is not nessesary for Gentiles...is "Rest"...from "Labor" and there is Nothing Wrong with "Rest". We all need Rest to Recooperate and Refresh our Physical being otherwise we can get RunDown or even Sick...and that is No fun!!!...Its a time to take a break form all the Distractions and Demands of this Fallen World. We also need it to Build Up our Spiritual connection with the LORD...whether it be a Friday to Saturday or Any other time frame...as long as We be gettin some "Rest"....I'd say its All GOOD!!! :bouncy: IMHO...I think folks spend way to much time arguing about differances instead of "Resting" in the completed work of our LORD Jesus and telling folks about Him!!!

SeriousPraise View Profile History	keeping the sabbath holy Posted : 8 May, 2015 02:13 PM The old Testament does in fact record God's handiwork. It shows us that God worked by speaking this world into existence. After the fall mankind had to work at the relationship to receive salvation until the appointed time of atonement. After Christ died there was an earthquake that rent the veil temple. In addition to the Holy Ghost being given as a comforter, the wrath of God was satisfied. Thus, bringing us into "Rest". It is my belief that the "Rest" that you speak of is the ceasing from being your own god, leader, and saviour. Christ said to "Come unto me, and I will give you rest". We can rest in God's soveriegnty, power, wisdom, leadership, etc., when we are being lead by the spirit and not our flesh. We enter in when we let go and let God... Post Reply

View Profile History	keeping the sabbath holy Posted : 26 Aug, 2015 02:49 PM God never changes....He made the Sabbath holy....the last day of the week and so the feasts and so the sabbatical year and jubilee year. I am finding now...after a life of sundays worship that His word is the same....we are Israel, the lost sheep He came for....wake up !! The real life is obeying YHVH and not a man made church and all kind of "laws".... Shalom Post Reply
