      Obedience to God is by keeping his laws_teachings and instructions.... One of which is keeping the Sabbath. Satan comes in different forms to deceive people with wrong interpretation of Scripture__No where in the Bible that says_keeping the Sabbath is a choice. All early Christian and the Apostles kept it by obedience to God's commandments... Jesus said He has come to fulfill the law not to abolish it..

      You seem to be doing just the opposite. You want to be justified by holy days and spread the word of how great you keep the Sabbath.
      Make no mistake. Paul is clear. Christians are saved by faith not by practices and those true believers share the Good News of Jesus Christ not bragging about the Sabbath.

      You will find there is much more to the 4th commandment than most talk about.
      1. It is the only day God made Holy.
      2. It was made for man, not man for the sabbath.
      3. It contains God's seal between Himself and mankind. ( A seal always contains 3 points. The Name, the Title and the jurisdiction.
      Remember: this is a Holy Day of worshipping our Creator. Honoring Him.
      The very thing satan was coveting, desiring and extremely jealous about.
      The satanic push to change the sabbath confirms satan trying to appoint his own day of worship.
      Most do not understand this because bible prophecy is not studied.
      Don't take my word for it. Study it out for yourself.

      It's true about Saturday Sabbath I have been spoken to from Father Jehovah in 2014 when I was chained to alcohol and had a demon haunting me! Father warned me that morning after the Holy Spirit revealed my sins to me that I am judgemental a liar and a hypocrite I was surprised because I thought I overcame all that and was just a drunk. But Father told me I must humble myself and then said If I obey no harm would come to me People were trying to kill me and people were getting murdered around me and even my newlywed husband after only 2 months of marriage! He wouldn't surr to God. But after I started practicing Sabbath in 2015 because I felt convicted, I started staying out later and later around 2019. I had a bad feeling something bad was going to happen because I forgot Father is slow to anger. But sure enough, stay out getting rent money order and shopping past dark, me and my 14 lb puppy was attacked on the bus coming back from Walmart! This dog was around 200 lbs! His face was as big as Sammys whole body! I went into shock and couldn't look back while the dog had Sammy. I just kept on pulling on his leash. And it seemed like forever but that monster just let go! And I took Sammy and put him on the seat and hovered over him! The dog started biting my arm but I thought it was strange I didn't feel any pain! Even in shock I knew I would feel something horrific! But nothing! I leaped with Sammy underneath me to the front by the bus driver and you know as I was screaming hysterically I only saw a little blood! It was mine and out of that whole ordeal Sammy only had 2 small bites to his right paw opposite of the attack and I only had 2 small bites that didn't need stitches! So you know what the chances of that are? 0 Sammy should have been ripped apart DEAD! I should have been ripped up as well with a dog that size! I saw a demon in the dogs eyes when he came after Sammy. But Father didn't punish me that night, He saved me with the angels. I wasn't sure even still because my faith was pathetic for a long time, but we had 2 more attacks after that exactly 2 months from the first one and this time i was walking too far from home and couldn't understand what i did wrong, and Holy Spirit let me know and thr last attack nothing happened at all because I was only going around the block. So I know absolutely that for those who don't obey the Sabbath but believe they love God, They are not Born again in the Spirit! If we are Born again and sin against God we will either be attacked by the devil or Father will chastise us somehow. We cannot serve 2 masters and when we sin we give authority to the devil! Please teach everyone how important God's holy Sabbath is because if it wasn't important He would have never made it a 10th commandment!!

Not in the New Testament. Of course, I quite well know that Sunday did come into use in early Christian history as a religious day, as we learn from the Christian Fathers and other sources.

      If truly you know and understand the scriptures as you presume, then please answer these seven (7) questions without skipping any one.
      1. Is there a substance without a shadow?
      2. Is a shadow not a reflection of the substance?
      3. Why did the Gentiles on the Sabbath day plead with the Apostles to rehearse the words that they’ve heard again to them on the next Sabbath day as recorded in Acts 13: 42, 44 if they were not observing the Sabbath even when Christ has died, resurrected and ascended up to heaven?
      And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath. Acts 13:42
      And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God. Acts 13:44
      4. Why will all flesh, all mankind come to worship before God from one Sabbath to another in the new heavens and in the new earth as recorded in Isaiah 66:22-23 if the Sabbath is no longer valid?
      For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
      Isaiah 66:22
      And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. Isaiah 66:23
      5. Why did Jesus say that the Sabbath was made for man as recorded in Mark 2:27 if not for the benefit of man?
      And He said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Mark 2:27
      6. Does being Lord over something mean that it is no longer valid?
      Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath. Mark 2:28
      7. If the law nor the Sabbath is no longer valid, why then is a righteous man not lawless nor disobedient according to
      1 Timothy 1:9-10?
      Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 1 Timothy 1:9
      For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 1 Timothy 1:10

    A very good debate. I was a Pentecostal Christian for 20+ years and know how difficult it was to come out of tradition, which is the case for a majority of Christians. Only through Bible study and Holy Spirit guidance does one truly understand and keep the Sabbath. Part of the Three Angels message in Revelation is a warning to God’s professed people to come out of Babylon (confusion and false system of worship).

      @@kac0404 quote---What does Acts 21:26 mean?
      To prove to legalistic Jewish Christians that Paul still reveres the Mosaic law, the elders of the church in Jerusalem have asked him to help four men complete what was likely a Nazirite vow. A Nazirite vow is a voluntary, temporary commitment to total dedication to God. The adherents, in this case men, abstain from anything made from grapes and do not cut their hair. At the end of their vow, they must present a sacrifice and shave their heads. If they become unclean, particularly by accidentally contacting a corpse, they must go through an eight-day cleansing ritual and restart their time (Numbers 6:1-21).
      Since the men's purification takes seven days (Acts 21:27), some scholars think this is a reset-the difference between eight and seven days may be because Luke counts days in the Greek way and not the Hebrew way. But the offering for a reset is merely two birds each; eight birds wouldn't cost much. The offering to fulfill the vow includes a female lamb, a male lamb, a ram, unleavened bread, loaves of bread, crackers, oil, and a grain and drink offering. Such an expense for four men would go a long way in proving Paul's devotion to the Law and be a sacrifice for someone who supports himself on the field (Acts 18:2-3; 1 Corinthians 9:4-7; 1 Thessalonians 2:9).
      Paul arrived in Jerusalem with several men-Jews and Gentiles-who came from modern-day Turkey, Greece, and Macedonia. He presents money collected by their home churches for the church in Jerusalem (Acts 20:4). One of these is Trophimus from the city of Ephesus in Asia, the large district in western Turkey. At some point in this week, Jews from Asia see Paul with Trophimus in the city. When they later see Paul in the temple, they assume Trophimus is with him. Legally, Trophimus is allowed to be outside the temple, in the court of Gentiles. To bring an uncircumcised Gentile into the temple is against the Mosaic law and, since it would be the defilement of a religious structure, it is also against the Roman law. The false witnesses accuse Paul as he stands amidst the temple crowd. The people beat him, and the tribune of the Roman outpost arrests him (Acts 21:27-36).
      ------As I have said b4--The sabbath feasts WERE abolished at the cross. NOT the Jewish laws of purification!!! Nor many others!!
      Sabbth feasts days-POINTING to the sacrifice of Christ!!! I NEVER said ALL the 613 laws were abolished!!
      --quote--- Animal Sacrifices: Acts 21:26--unquote--
      ESV Then Paul took the men, and the next day he purified himself along with them and went into the temple, giving notice when the days of purification would be fulfilled and the offering presented for each one of them.
      As i said--the purification laws WERE NOT abolished.
      ----quote---Circumcision: Acts 16:3
      Paul recognized God's favor on Timothy's life and wanted him to accompany them in ministry, but Paul had Timothy circumcised first because of the significant Jewish community living in the region, and everyone knew that Timothy's father wasn't a Jew.

    It just so happens that today Friday 14th, 2023 is the day that I chose to begin keeping The Sabbath. I must add, that there were doubts in me on whether I should keep The Sabbath or not. But something inside of me kept telling me I should, because it’s part of the Ten Commandments. I kept thinking that if I’m breaking one I’m breaking all of them.
    But just as soon as I was about to begin my Sabbath, I came across this debate which by the way; it’s the best debate I have witnessed. I truly congratulate these two teachers. They were both fantastic presenting their point of view on The Sabbath. I must say that this debate strengthened my belief of The Sabbath, and Pastor Jim put it in a clearer way for me. I honestly think that our LORD & SAVIOR JESUS wants us to keep all The Ten Commandments. Like Pastor Jim said, how can you not keep The Sabbath? By not keeping The Sabbath your abolishing the other commandments which means we can then murder or commit adultery without being convicted? These laws are the ones keeping us closer to GOD. I believe The Ten Commandments were given to all of us. How can I not keep The Sabbath when GOD himself made it a day of rest and also holy? I will most definitely try my best to serve THE LORD with all my heart, with all my soul, and with all my strength. Keep it Holy, for HE is Holy.
    GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

      The ONLY Sabbaths that were abolished were the feast sabbaths- ALL pointing towards the sacrifice of Jesus. The weekly Sabbath pointed BACKWARDS to creation!!!

      They are observed by Jews and a minority of Christians. Two of the shabbath (holy assemblies) occur in spring on the first and last day of the Feast of unleavened bread (Matzot). One occurs in the summer, this is the Feast of Weeks (Shavuot). And four occur in the fall in the seventh month.

      --Does God lie, especially to His people???
      --------quote--which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, --unquote
      I suggest you research what the ordinances are that were given to Israel.
      In the second part of his second speech, Moses describes in detail the “statutes and ordinances” that God charges Israel to obey (Deut. 6:1). These rules deal with a wide array of matters, including war, slavery, tithes, religious festivals, sacrifices, kosher food, prophecy, the monarchy, and the central sanctuary. This material contains several passages that speak directly to the theology of work. We will explore them in their biblical order.
      In case the commandments, statutes, and ordinances in God’s covenant might come to seem like nothing but a burden to Israel, Moses reminds us that their primary purpose is to bless us.
      If you heed these ordinances, by diligently observing them, the Lord your God will maintain with you the covenant loyalty that he swore to your ancestors; he will love you, bless you, and multiply you; he will bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the issue of your flock, in the land that he swore to your ancestors to give you. (Deut. 7:12-13)
      If you obey the Lord your God: Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the field. Blessed shall be the fruit of your womb, the fruit of your ground, and the fruit of your livestock, both the increase of your cattle and the issue of your flock. Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out…. The Lord will make you abound in prosperity, in the fruit of your womb, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground in the land that the Lord swore to your ancestors to give you. The Lord will open for you his rich storehouse, the heavens, to give the rain of your land in its season and to bless all your undertakings. (Deut. 28:2-7; 11-12)
      Obeying the covenant is meant to be a source of blessing, prosperity, joy, and health for God’s people. As Paul says, “The law is holy, and the commandment is holy and just and good” (Rom. 7:12), and “Love is the fulfilling of the law” (Rom. 13:10).

For a start, if you are in US, you go to Norway and try to observe the Sabbath there especially from the month of April till August. Have a great time resting there by observing the Sabbath.

      Shalom! Many Hebrew Israelites have been led into believing that Sunday is the right day of worship, not knowing that the Roman and Gentiles leaders changed the Shabbat to Sunday in order to celebrate the Sun gods. The Church tried to holds that they observe Sunday as Jesus’ resurrection day, but if that was the case, then, their “Jesus” would be risen in less that two days after His crucifixion. Because sundown to the next sundown is one day, it is not possible to get three days base on what the Scriptures said about YAHOSHUAH’S death, burial and resurrection.

      It is common knowledge that the ancient Jews considered that any part of a day constituted a whole day when using a phrase like Jesus did reoeatedly "in 3 days I will rise". Jesus died about 3 in the afternoon on Friday, was in the grave all day Saturday, and rose in the morning on Sunday. In the Jewish reckoning, this was "3 days". It is foolish and ignorant in the extreme to employ your argument. This is a matter of change of Covenant and what the Apostles taught and practiced, as the Gospel was committed to them, not to you or I. Paul was far more an expert on this subject than anyone alive today, and he clearly refutes this Sabbath continuation idea, ss well as the practice of all Jewish ceremonial laws and customs.
      Jesus is the end of the Law for all who believes in Him.
      It is not helpful to use the Law for any purpose than to reveal sin to the lost and unrefenerate. It is a schoolmaster to lead one to Christ. The Spirit then empowers one by Grace to Agape Love that exceeds the righteousness of the Law.

      @@eswn1816 Hebrews 4 the author addresses the issue of the Jewish day of rest, the sabbath. He sets the tone saying in v3: “We who have believed have entered into rest.” Hebrews 4:8-9: “If Joshua had given them rest God would not have spoken about a later day of sabbath (rest) to come. Therefore there is a Sabbath-rest for the people of God. For anyone who enters into His rest must also cease (rest) from their own works, as God did.”
      This is why Jesus said in Mark 2: 27 and 28: “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.”
      Jesus here made the case that HE is the Sabbath-rest long predicted with each day off every Jewish person took through the centuries. HE is the Sabbath-rest who was made for man because that Sabbath day off was made for man - and so was He. With each bull and goat and sheep and bird offered as a blood sacrifice it spoke to a time where a final sacrifice would be made to bring a rest between God and human kind once and for all. Jesus is that rest. Jesus brought that Sabbath-rest.
      But to enter into His rest, you have to cease from your own works. You have to accept the grace. And once accepted, you can’t go back to working formulas to find peace with God the Father. Once you have Jesus, as Paul stated in Romans 8: 32, you have all things.
      This is why Paul in his letters to the Corinthians and Colossians and as we see in Hebrews, the teaching that Jesus is our Sabbath-rest, which makes every effort on our part to make peace with the Father obsolete. Jesus is all we need. Once we have Him, it is proof we have ceased from our own works (efforts) to get to God.”

So this September I made it official (so far just me, husband and children are still doing sun) and although this world (especially here in CA) is set up to go completely against keeping the true sabbath, I am doing my best to learn how to honor my Jesus and spend time with Him on the sabbath.

      and will remember their sins no more.”[b]

      Jesus in Mark 2:27 said, we are not made for Sabbath that we should become the subject of the Sabbath like how the Pharisees regarded it. But now with the coming and dying and resurrection and glorification of Jesus Christ who is the Lord of the Sabbath, He turned our worship into a heart based worship in truth and in spirit and not a place or day based worship like Sabbath or Sunday (John 4:21-24). Most importantly, it is not on which day we worship that matters but who we worship on whichever day ( Rom 14:5).

    As a Sunday keeper I see that Jim speech is straight to the point. Every word he is speaking is straight to the point. Now I see that Sabbath is the remnant church of God and it's a day that every people on this earth should respect and worship the creator. My father is a Sunday pastor but I have now decide to join Sabbath. John Huss once said, seek the truth, love the truth and defend the truth. Live life in the truth of GOD in accordance with God's word.
    So, for now I'd like to encourage everyone that seek the power of the Holy Spirit to understand the truth and which day to worship. For now and onwards I'll keep the Sabbath Holy until my last breath.

I encouraged her that she knew more than she realized, and that God would guide her as she followed her convictions according to His Word.
    She went to her boss’s home and as she entered, the woman asked if she was ready to study the Sabbath. My friend noticed two tall stacks of books on the table. She said, yes, if we study only the Word of God. Her teacher looked at the table for a second, and said, well then I guess we have no study.

      In Acts 18:4 the Bible says:
      "And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks." Acts 18:4
      "And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath." Acts 13:42
      These two verses show that the Gentiles and or Greeks observed the Sabbath.
      I struggled with and wrestled with GOD about the Sabbath. GOD won when I surrendered. It was a battle until GOD asked if I loved my family more than living in LOVING obedience to HIM. (John 14:15).

    There's a reason why the fourth commandment says *REMEMBER* the Sabbath. Because people have forgotten that the 7th day of the week is Saturday. Through reading the scriptures, it's also important to bear in mind we don't keep the Sabbath for righteousness, we aren't under the law but grace. However that doesn't mean we don't follow the commandments, but rather our reasons for following the commandments have changed. How many times do the scriptures read "if you love me, follow my commands?" So for me, I keep the Sabbath because I love God and that is the way I show it.

      Yes there is a reason but the reason was not given to you Gentile. It was given to Israel. They are the reason it was said to and to who it was said to REMEMBER the Sabbath.
      No mention of creation or God resting or the blessing the Sabbath received appears in the
      commandment in the book of Deuteronomy. Instead, Moses states, “ *Remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt and the Eternal your God freed you* from there… therefore the Eternal your God has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day.” This explanation appears somewhat removed from the day itself, not as closely tied to it as the other [which links it to the seventh day of creation on which God rests]. How does God’s freeing Israel from Egypt lead to sanctifying the Sabbath?
      The answer unfolds in layers. To begin with, the image of God in this version of the commandment matches the image of God in the first commandment, which reads, “I the Eternal am *your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt* ….” This is a familiar God. This is the God who works through history, the God whose liberation of the Israelites from Egypt forms a central theme of the Bible and lies at the core of Jewish life. In addressing the Israelites shortly before his death, Moses is speaking to people who witnessed that liberation or heard about it directly from their parents or other family members.
      For them, God as creator may seem remote. God as redeemer is the God they know. Calling up that aspect of the divine in the Sabbath commandment stirs in them memories of the slavery they suffered and God’s feats in delivering them from it. Observing the Sabbath God ordained is a way of memorializing their deliverance and honoring the deity who brought it about.
      (Exodus 31:16,17 Artscroll Translation). The Sabbath was given as a sign and covenant to Israel, a Gentile is forbidden to observe the Sabbath or to make a Sabbath of their own, a Halachah codified in the Mishneh Torah, Laws of Kings 10:9.

    • @justthink8952
      @justthink8952 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Seventh Day Adventists and other Sabbath keepers are trying to observe the Sabbath of Israel, but not God's true Sabbath. Here's how.
      When God gave the law through Moses, it was for the people of Israel, not the gentiles.
      Israel's Sabbath is just a foreshadow of God's Sabbath. It is just a copy.
      What Israel were commanded to do was just a copy of what God has in store. If you disagree, then substantiate your arguments against mine given below.
      To start with, use your common sense and think outside of the box. Keep these facts in mind.
      1. Before God make appear the dry land and create the sun, God had his day 1, day 2, day 3 .... which had morning and evening. This fact is read from Genesis.
      Now if our day and night coincides with God's day and night, then the duration of God's day and night is a 24 hours cycle. If this is not the case, then Israel's Sabbath is not coinciding with God's true Sabbath. That means Israel's Sabbath which God gave them to observe is not God's true Sabbath. In that case, Seventh Day Adventist's main pillar of faith is destroyed the Seventh Day Adventist's Church will be a false Church. Thus, to sustain the claim of Seventh Day Adventist's Church, they must prove that God's Sabbath day coincides with Israel's Sabbath. I hope you will attempt to prove this.
      2. God's day and night were not because of the sunlight and the shadow of the earth. But if God's day 1 is equal to 24 hours duration, then it could very well coincide with Israel's Sabbath which has 24 hours duration.
      Now, if God had his Day 1, Day 2 ...., then it is fair to imagine that the time duration should be of equal duration because God's time will not be determined by the rotation of the earth in its axis or the revolution of the earth in elliptical orbit around the sun.
      3. Now, God is the God of all people. And if we say one day is equal to 24 hours, then day and night is not the issue to determined the time duration. Therefore, there is no need to start the Sabbath at sunset on the sixth day in Israel. However, if sunset and sunrise is used to determine the duration of the Sabbath day, then the people of Norway will have to observe lengthy Sabbath day during April to August. This means the time period of Sabbath for Norwaygians will be more than thousands hours while for Israel, it is only 24 hours. So, how can Norwaygians observe Sabbath like the Israelites? Isn't the God of Israel also the God of Norwaygians?
      This problem shows that either the God of Israel was a liar and not the true God or Israelites are not keeping God's true Sabbath. Either way, the Seventh Day Adventists are in error because they are neither following God's instruction on Sabbath given through Moses nor do they keep God's true Sabbath.
      While a Seventh Day Adventist start keeping the Sabbath in Israel, his fellow Adventists in US will be working and his fellowmen in Norway will be wondering how to keep the Sabbath because God did not say look at the watch to keep the Sabbath. There is no way Seventh Day Adventist will be able to keep the Sabbath around the world at the same time when they all worship the same one God.
      Since Sabbath keepers claim they keep God's Sabbath while they break it by not being able to observe the Sabbath at the same time worldwide, the Seventh Day Adventist Church as a whole has errred and therefore, it cannot be the true Church.
      4. History does not support the claims of Seventh Day Adventist Church

    Thanks to everyone involved in this production. Thanks to everyone who shared their experience with the sabbath. It has really really moved me; that I have felt compelled to comment as well...
    When our people also first got the sabbath truth these are some of the words that came with it
    “Where did the light break out? Let thine angels teach us where the light broke out! It commenced from a little, then Thou didst give one light after another. The testimony and commandments (Rev 12:17) are linked together, they cannot be separated; that comes first the ten commandments, by God.”
    “The commandments never would be struck against if it were not to get rid of the Sabbath commandment. That one that has relaxed it is very foolish. It was very small, and when it rose, though it rose in strength, it was weak back there, when it came up it increase, (or increased.) If they won’t hear it they are as accountable as though they did hear it.”
    “He was well pleased when His law began to come up in strength, and the waste places began to be built up.” (Isa 58:12-14)
    “Out of weakness it has become strong from searching His Word. The test upon it has been but a short time. All who are saved will be tried upon it in some way. That truth arises and is on the increase, stronger, and stronger. It’s the seal! (Rev 7:2) It’s coming up! It arises, commencing from the rising of the sun. Like the sun, first cold, grows warmer and sends its rays.”
    “When that truth arose there was but little light in it, but it has been increasing. O the power of these rays.”
    “It grows in strength, the greatest weight and light is on that truth for it lasts forever when the Bible is not needed. (Isa 66:22-23)It arose there in the east, it began with a small light, but its beams are healing. O how mighty is that truth; it’s the highest after they enter the goodly land, but it will increase till they are made immortal (1st Cor 15:51-54). It commenced from the rising of the sun, keeps on its course like the sun, but it never sets.”
    “The angels are holding the four winds.” (Rev 7:1)
    “It is God that restrains the powers.”
    “The angels have not let go, for the saints are not all sealed.” (Rev 7:1-4)
    “The time of trouble has commenced, it is begun. The reason why the four winds have not let go, is because the saints are not all sealed. It’s on the increase, and will increase more and more; the trouble will never end until the earth is rid of the wicked.”
    “At that time neighbor will be against neighbor (Zec 14:13). That time has not yet come, when brother against brother and sister against sister (Matt 10:21); but will come when Michael stands up.” (Daniel 12:1)
    “When Michael stands up this trouble will be all over the earth.” (Daniel 12:1)
    “Why they are just ready to blow. There’s a check put on because the saints are not sealed.” (Rev 7:1-4)
    “Yea, publish the things thou hast seen and heard, and the blessing of God will attend. Look ye! that rising is in strength, and grows brighter and brighter. That truth is the seal, that’s why it comes last. The shut door we have had (Rev 3:8). God has taught and taught, but that experience is not the seal, and that commandment that has been trodden under foot will be exalted. And when ye get that you will go through the time of trouble. (Daniel 12: 1)”

      @metathoughts732 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Here is what Paul did on the Sabbath:
      Acts 17
      Now when they had traveled through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. 2 And according to Paul’s custom, he visited them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and giving evidence that the Christ had to suffer and rise from the dead, and saying, “This Jesus whom I am proclaiming to you is the Christ.” 4 And some of them were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, along with a large number of the God-fearing Greeks and a significant number of the leading women.
      Is this what you do on the Sabbath?
      Do you go to the lost and share the Good News?
      Now that would be something to boast about.

God created the earth and rested on the seventh day and blessed it. It is His holy day(not yours to change or disregard) and we are required to keep it the way He set it as a commemoration that He is the creator.

      @nat turner Yeshua for sure! But when He said that did He mean that it was no longer valid? Wasn’t He the Lord of the Sabbath from the very beginning when He instituted it in the garden? Does being lord over something mean it’s no longer valid? He is also lord over the rest of the Ten Commandments. Does that mean He doesn’t expect us to keep them too? The context of him saying that was the Pharisees were misinterpreting the application of the sabbath and they had changed the original meaning from when he wrote it. Yeshua is saying that HE wrote it and HE is the master of it, not them. If He came to change the day of the sabbath then He cannot be the Messiah because He also said in Mt. 5:17-21 that “not one jot or tittle would pass from the law until heaven and earth pass away.” If the number 4 commandment is now passed away then his statement in Mt. 5 is untrue. And if it’s untrue then he lied. And if he lied then he can’t be the messiah. The Sabbath was made for man and is one of the BIGGEST blessings he ever gave. Certainly we are not to believe He took that away from us when He said he made it for us and meant for us to keep it forever before man even sinned. If Adam doesn’t sin we are keeping the sabbath and there would be no debate. Besides, why on earth would we not want to rest and enter into something that was specifically made for us!

They were not keeping it like the Pharisees that were riddled with traditions. The gnostic jews were stuck in tradition and killing the simple meaning behind many of the commandments. Paul’s not warning them against the Jews trying to get them to keep gods commandments. Paul already said in Roman’s 7 that the law is good and keeping it is the very thing he wants to do. He’s against the religious Jews trying to get his converts to keep the TRADITIONS. That’s why he said in verse 8…Colossians 2:8
      Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ” and he ends the whole chapter saying the same thing: 2:20 “Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the WORLD, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations- “Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,” which all concern things which perish with the using-according to the commandments and doctrines of MEN?” it’s commandments of MEN they were pushing. Not the commandments of God.

      Obviously Luther did NOT read the Bible.
      The Law of Moses--Given to the JEWS!!!! Written in a book in pencil, by Moses.. Spoken by God.-- Kept in a pocket OUTSIDE the Ark.
      The Moral Laws of God--The Ten Commandments---- Spoken by God. Written with HIS finger IN STONE!!
      Kept INSIDE the Ark!!!
      ---The Law of Moses
      In regard to the book of the law or Moses’ law (Deuteronomy 29:21; 30:10) , the Lord commanded Moses saying, “Take this Book of the Law, and put it beside the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there as a witness against you” (Deut. 31:26).
      Jewish commentators are in disagreement in their views regarding the above verse. Some claim that the written scroll that contained Moses’ Law was placed inside the ark with the two tables of stone (Ten Commandments), others, say that it was put outside the Ark in a compartment formed at the right side held by a bulging board.
      But the clear statement in the Scripture that says, “there was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put therein at Horeb” according to 2 Chron. 5:10 and also 1 Kings 8:9, clearly affirms that Moses’ law was placed outside the Ark of the Covenant. The Revised Standard version confirms this view in its translation that says, “by the side of the ark” (Deut. 31:26).
      The Law of Moses ended at the cross.
      The Mosaic Laws that pointed to Christ’s ministry and death (the priesthood, sacrifices, rituals, meat and drink offerings, etc.) were temporary as they foreshadowed the cross. When Christ died, they came to an end. Because of sin, Moses’ law was given (or “added” Galatians 3:16, 19) till Christ should come and die. The yearly or annual feasts (which were also called sabbaths) or holidays of Leviticus 23 were nailed to the Cross (Colossians 2:16).
      The moral Law of God remains
      God’s Law has existed at least as long as sin has existed (Romans 4:15). When people sin they break God’s moral law (1 John 3:4). Unlike the Mosaic law, the Ten Commandments (God’s law) “stand fast for ever and ever” and therefore, are binding today (Psalms 111:8). And the weekly seventh-day Sabbath of the fourth commandment remains in effect (Matthew 5:17,18; Luke 16:17; Romans 7:12; Hebrews 4:9…etc.).
      Paul confirms that God’s Moral Law is still in effect: “What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, thou shalt not covet” (Romans 7:7); “Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law?” (Romans 3:31)
      MOSES’ LAW
      Called “the law of Moses” (Luke 2:22).
      Called “law … contained in ordinances” (Ephesians 2:15).
      Written by Moses in a book (2 Chronicles 35:12).
      Placed outside the ark (Deuteronomy 31:26).
      Ended at the cross (Ephesians 2:15).
      Added because of sin (Galatians 3:19).
      Contrary to us, against us (Colossians 2:14).
      Judges no one (Colossians 2:14-16).
      Carnal (Hebrews 7:16).
      GOD’S LAW
      Called “the law of the Lord” (Isaiah 5:24).
      Called Ten Commandments-”the royal law” (James 2:8).
      Written by God on stone (Exodus 31:18; 32:16).
      Placed inside the ark (Exodus 40:20).
      Will stand forever (Luke 16:17).
      Points out sin (Romans 7:7; 3:20).
      Not grievous (1 John 5:3).
      Judges all people (James 2:10-12).
      Spiritual (Romans 7:14).
      Perfect (Psalms 19:7).
      Thus, we can conclude that the Ten Commandments that were written upon the two tables of stone were of such an important nature as to place them in a separate and distinct class by themselves- inside the Ark while Moses’ Law was placed outside the Ark.

      Not that keeping the Sabbath grants us salvation. That is only achieved by accepting the saving grace thru faith that is Jesus Christ. Not by his works, but by sacrifice for without sacrifice there is NO forgiveness of sin. Therefore once we accept Jesus we are covered by His righteousness bc Jesus is the door into the sanctuary and it is He that is our advocate to God. Then we have sacrifice, we sacrifice our old self and bc we have confessed our sins over the Lamb of God that died once that all MIGHT be saved;(You first have to accept. Otherwise there is no coverage of grace) you are forgiven. Afterwards is the lavor the cleansing the justification. Then we walk in the doctrine of Christ seeking always to be sanctified by obedience to His law bc it is a law of liberty sets us free from sin and once we obtain that thru our walk with Jesus who is the holy we are cleansed and sanctified blood and sacrificed and once we are sanctified whether we live or die on this earth we will be allowed into the most holy the inner sanctuary that is in the presence of God. It is the entire sanctuary message even though I may not have worded it all with proper English

      I think it is strange to not give examples of what you do and to give YaHUaH all the glory for it. The humbleness comes by giving God all glory. Just saying I accepted Christ, I got baotised, I preached, I went to church, I testified, I pray, I glorify God, I repented, I did this, and do that is all boasting?
      That is what is strange. Reread the Bible and find everytime, people told what they do. The person above simply stated she loves Jesus and keep the Sabbaths.
      I don't believe in Jesus, I only believe the Hebrew Bible, not the Greek one. Human sacrifice and atonement is way of the heathen. Jesus is fake Greek plant. YaHUaH says every human must pay for his own sin. Brainwashed into believing human sacrifice is holy. YaHUaH is the Name of Elohim, not Jesus (Yeshua, Yahushua, Joshua, etc.....). The Greek Bible was written by Greeks, not any Jews because no Jew or ex-Jew would ever write antisemitic writings as the Greeks wrote. Book of Hebrews says Moses took blood and hyssop branch and sprinkled the tabernacle and all vessels of ministry with blood. Moses would never do such ungodly thing. Never make unkosher vessels by making them bloody. It is no where in the Hebrew Bible. Greek idiots. I HATE Christianity with Passion. It is idolatry, the worship of a human. Demons aren't real and neither is Lucifer. If they were real, they would steal everything from all humans, they'd steal everything out of your bank and destroy your home. The Hebrew Bible is the truth mostly, it has some false things in it by lieing scribes. Jeremiah 8:8 says it... behold the pen of the lieing scribes.... God has the verbal final say. He never accept any human blood to atone for any sin for it is truly way of the heathen. Sabbath keeping is a fact of truth.

Joel 2:32 doesn't say to call on name of Yeshua but the Name of YaHUaH for Almighty Deliverance from all sinning. YaHUaH alone is Savior and doesn't do heathen human sacrifice, only animals. Greek Catholic priests decieved billions. The Hebrew Bible promises salvation to those who call on the Name of YaHUaH. So no need for name of Jesus who is a supposed heathen human sacrifice. Jesus blood didn't atone anyone's sins. If you repent, you won't have to deal with the confusion of Greek Bible anymore. Learn Biblical Hebrew. "We aren't under the law but under grace." "Sin is lawlessness". We obey the law of God in Christ". "We say and conclude the gentile believers observe no such thing but to abstain from blood, from things strangled, from idol sacrifice foods, and from fornication". "All things are clean to eat". Oh, but things strangled foid is unclean? Ahhhhhh what does that mean daaah. Yeah hardcore confusion. The Greek Bible also says Moses took blood and hyssop and sprinkled the tabernacle, altar and all vessels of ministry. Blood makes vessels of ministry unkosher. Moses never sprinkled any vessel if ministry as Greek Bible says. Also Isaiah 7 in Hebrew doesnt say he shall be born of virgin but young lady. Learn Hebrew.

      2. In order to be eligible to keep the Sabbath, you must be an Israelite, a servant of an Israelite, or a stranger staying with an Israelite. Gentiles were not allowed to keep the Sabbath, as it was a special sign between God and Israel to "sanctify them," or set them apart from the Gentiles (Exodus 31:12-17).

      6. You must not kindle a fire (Exodus 35:3).
      7. You must not buy or sell anything (Nehemiah 13, Amos 8:5).
      8. You must not carry a load (Jeremiah 17).
      9. Whoever violates the Sabbath must be put to death (Exodus 31:14-15).

      This is what gets me messed up when someone says, "if we break one command, we are against God's Law". It is impossible for man to follow God's Leviticus Law. No one can follow the Law, that is the sole reason Jesus died on the cross so we would not have to do sacrifices nor follow a Law that we can't follow. If we violate just one little law, we are guilty of violating all of it and deserve Hell. I know Leviticus, says for us to keep the Sabbath forever but then when Christ died and the veil in the Temple was torn from the top to the bottom also told me that no more sacrifice is needed and I don't need a mediator between God and me and that we have a new Covenant. I have been a Christian for over 50 years and I will humble myself to say I studied this myself and I have no answer. I have no choice but to have faith that Jesus grants me Grace to have Salvation and to forgive me of any errors I have made because of my ignorance. I get comfort this way and I believe I will receive Grace and not be condemned either way.

    Pastor Jim I appreciate your defense of the Sabbath . And I will be please to Add that Jesus Christ said do not think I came to destroy the law and the prophets I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. Mth 5vs17.

      And he adds how to fulfill the law;Mathew7:12 Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. (As you can see here, the sabbath is not in the equation). The new Law is Love, which is the natural law in the 10commandments. As mentioned in Mathew 19:16-20.

      Pastor Chris, you have quoted church fathers, other, and some out of context Bible verses. This does not prove Sunday is the Sabbath! Do you not think God would let his people know if He was changing the day He sanctified to something else (Sunday) Amos 3:7 God does nothing without revealing his secrets to his prophets. You are gonna be responsible for all the people you are deceiving. 😢 Shame😢

      Mathew 17:16 Now behold, one came and said to Him, “Good[d] Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?”
      17 So He said to him, [e]“Why do you call Me good? [f]No one is good but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”18 He said to Him, “Which ones?”
      Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder,’ ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’ 19 ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ ”
      20 The young man said to Him, “All these things I have kept [g]from my youth. What do I still lack?”
      21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” (Notice that Jesus teaches only the commandment of love , consistently as written in Mathew 7:12,John15 etc. Even when he wanted the man to be perfect ,it was still love, "' Go sell everything & give the money to the poor"'. I would have expected Jesus to tell this man, "' if you want to be perfect , never break the sabbath!!!!), why is he avoiding this ? Answer: Romans13:8 Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9 For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” [b]“You shall not bear false witness,” “You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. Galatians5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: [d]adultery, [e]fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, [f]murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Paul keeps forgetting that sabbath keeping is necessary for eternal life?NO he knows the master did not teach that . There is another day , today he adds, in saying today, he is not random but rather is talking about the day of the church , the day of the resurrection. Hebrews 4:6 Since therefore it remains that some must enter it, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter because of disobedience, 7 again He designates a certain day, saying in David, “Today,” after such a long time, as it has been said:“Today, if you will hear His voice,
      Do not harden your hearts.”8 For if [b]Joshua had given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day. 9 There remains therefore a rest for the people of God.
