He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked." 1Jn 5:3-5: "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?"

REVELATION: 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, AND THE FAITH OF JESUS.

[@piptaac101]

Thank you for the message! You may have mentioned this in other parts to the series and if you did i apologize but in addition to the reality of the Sabbath truth originating at creation, it is also tied typologically into the Gospel message. As God "finished" His work of creation on the sixth day in Genesis 2 He then "rested" on the seventh. What did Adam and Eve do during their first full day of being alive? They simply entered into a "rest" that God provided for them and set in motion a pattern for humanity in developing an intimate relationship with their Creator. Time is how we nurture relationship. They entered into the rest God provided and this was outside anything Adam and Eve could supply or add to this blessing. Fast forward 4000 years to the cross of Calvary. Jesus is breathing out His last breath on the cross and says "It is finished". It happens to be the sixth day! Then He is taken down and put in the tomb where He "rests" on the Sabbath from His work in the recreation of man. We enter this salvation by faith! The seventh day Sabbath is truly a message of righteousness by faith. "There now remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God". Hebrews 4:9 When the Sabbath is seen in the light of the Gospel of Christ, its beauty shines forth and brings about the fruits of righteousness. God bless my friend!

@@mitchellosmer1293 Essentially, what they believe is that God established the first day as the Sabbath in creation (1st day for Adam and Eve since they were created on God’s 6th day, and that it was only the 7th day for God). Then, when Moses gave the law, they kept in on the 7th day to model God’s rest. Then, they say that when Jesus resurrected, it re-establishes the first day as the Sabbath, through his “finished work” on the cross. This is the Presbyterian position (First Day Sabbatarianism).

[@michaelstanley4698]

Hebrew Christians still observe the 7th day (Lu.23:56) 'according to the commandment'. Resting on the sabbath was a commandment before the 10 commandments were given (Ex.16:28-30). The word 'sabbath' is not mentioned in Scripture until Ex.16:23. It is then revealed to be 'the seventh day', as Heb.4:4 mentions. God did bless 'The seventh day' and sanctify it (Gen.2:3), and God does not change His mind. Scripture confirms, that 'whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it , that men should fear before him' (Eccl.3:14). This proves that, 'the seventh day' is still blessed and sanctified. There is no mention of a change of day in Scripture. 'The seventh day' is biblical; the saying "one day in seven" is not. The moral law is still to be observed, including the moral 'sabbath day', but the ceremonial sabbaths were fulfilled by Christ on the cross. The first day may be an extension of the sabbath, in a gospel sense, because Jesus is 'the resurrection and the life'. Those that ignore the significance of 'the seventh day' are ignoring Hebrews chapter 4, that plainly reveals that it still points to the everlasting rest of God, and eternal day (no more night there). The Apostolic Constitutions exhorted Christians to observe both days, the 7th and the 1st each week. This obviously is the 'peacemaker' view, that gets rid of conflict and variance about 'the sabbath', a day to rest and honor God.

THE TEN COMMSNDMENTS DID EXIST AT CREATION, The Commandments is the transcript of GOD's Character. The reason they were written in stone in the wilderness by the finger of GOD, is because GOD enter into a covenant with these people and both parties receive a copy of the covenant agreement. The old and new covenant are the same; the old is where GOD enter into a covenant with man who then broke the covenant, and then re-enter the covenant with his SON JESUS who kept it.

Revelation 1:10 mistranslated into Greek is the basis for the justification of Sunday as the “LORD’s Day.” In Hebrew that reads “Day of the LORD,” which is what all of Revelation is actually about. It has absolutely nothing to do with a day of the week, it is the Day of the LORD spoken of throughout the Old Testament. Christianity was CREATED as opposing Judaism. That’s why scriptures were “interpreted “ such that the only way Christians could PLEASE God was to disobey His commandments.

[@tombanta6500]

Wow.. Very interesting

[@ashersian2563]

Biblical Perspective on Sunday Worship 1. No Direct Command: - The New Testament does not explicitly command or even provide a slight indication for the replacement of the Sabbath with Sunday worship. The focus of the New Testament is on the resurrection of Jesus, rather than instituting Sunday as a new day of rest or worship. 2. Continuity with Sabbath Observance: - Jesus observed the Sabbath regularly, as seen in Luke 4:16 and Matthew 5:17-19. The apostles’ observance of the Sabbath is also documented in Acts 13:14, 15:21, 16:13, 17:2, and 18:4. These references underline the Sabbath's importance in their practice. 3. Gentile Converts and the Sabbath: -Gentile converts to Christianity continued to observe the Sabbath, indicating its ongoing importance in early Apostolic Christian practice and highlighting its continued significance. In Acts 13:42 and 44, we see that these converts were present in the synagogue keeping the Sabbath, showing their continued observance and respect for this day. 4. Unscriptural Theological Development: - The practice of Sunday worship developed gradually over time during the post-apostolic era, influenced by theological reflections and traditions prevalent in the Roman Empire at that time. These aimed to honor Sunday observance, using Jesus' resurrection on that day as an unwarranted justification. This development was not based on an explicit New Testament command or practice but diverged from the original Sabbath observance, which is one of the commandments in the Decalogue. 5. Deviation from Apostolic Practice: - The early Church Fathers deviated from the original teaching and practice of Jesus and the apostles regarding the Sabbath commandment. As prophesied by Paul in Acts 20:29 (KJV), "For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock", there was a significant departure from the original apostolic teaching and practice. 6. Pagan Origins of Sunday Worship: -Sunday worship has pagan origins steming from historical and cultural practices that predate Christianity. Here's a summary of this perspective: 1. Roman Sun Worship: - In ancient Rome, Sunday was dedicated to the sun god, Sol Invictus. This day was considered auspicious for sun worship, and various sun deities were honored on this day, including the later imperial cults. 2. Heliocentric Influence: - The influence of heliocentric (sun-centered) religion was widespread in the Roman Empire. Sunday was already a day of rest and celebration in honor of the sun, a practice that was integrated into Christian worship practices as Christianity became more entrenched in Roman culture. 3. Early Christian Adaptation: - As Christianity spread through the Roman Empire, church leaders adapted certain cultural and religious practices to facilitate conversion and integration. The observance of Sunday as a day of worship was influenced by the existing Roman tradition of sun worship, helping to bridge the gap between pagan practices and Christian worship. 4. Constantine’s Edict: - In 321 AD, Emperor Constantine issued an edict making Sunday a day of rest from labor, aligning with the established Roman practice and facilitating the transition to Christian observance. This move was part of a broader effort to merge Christian practices with prevailing cultural norms, which is basically paganism. Conclusion The New Testament does not provide a direct command or indication to replace the Sabbath with Sunday. Gentile converts to Christianity maintained Sabbath observance, reflecting its ongoing significance. The emphasis on Sunday as a day of worship developed through tradition and theological reflection, diverging from the original Sabbath observance as established by Jesus and the apostles. The association of Sunday worship with pagan sun worship reflects historical developments where post-apostolic Christians adapted cultural practices to their new religious context with in the Roman Empire. While the Christian observance of Sunday ultimately became centered on the resurrection of Jesus, its timing and some associated practices were influenced by pre-existing Roman traditions dedicated to the sun as a god.

[@ashersian2563]

The 2 most commonly use are: Acts 20:7 Verse: "On the first day of the week, we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight." 1. Timing: According to Jewish reckoning, a day begins at sunset. Thus, the "first day of the week" (Sunday) would begin at sunset on what we consider Saturday night. The gathering in Acts 20:7 occurred on Saturday night, a continuation of the Sabbath worship that day. 2. Breaking Bread: The phrase "to break bread" can refer to a regular meal. In Acts 2:42, it is noted that the early Christians "devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer," suggesting that breaking bread was a daily practice, not confined to a specific day of the week, and not exclusive to a sacred day of worship. 3. Context: This verse describes a specific event where Paul and the disciples gathered on the first day of the week to break bread and Paul preached. The context shows this as a narrative description of a one-time event rather than an establishment of a regular practice or commandment, undermining or replacing the Sabbath worship found in the Decalogue. 4. First Day of the Week: While it mentions the first day of the week (Sunday), the emphasis seems more on Paul's departure and his long sermon rather than instituting a new worship practice. The meeting may have been more practical due to Paul’s travel plans rather than a doctrinal statement about worship. In fact, Paul traveled the next morning (sunday), further proving that Sunday is an ordinary day. 1 Corinthians 16:2 Verse: "On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with your income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made." 1. Context: Paul is instructing the Corinthians to set aside money for the collection for the saints (no indication as tithe). This practice of setting aside money on the first day of the week was more about logistical convenience for collecting funds rather than establishing a worship day. 2. Private Action: The instruction is for individuals to set aside money privately ("each one of you"), not necessarily implying a communal gathering for worship, but rather a common earning or working day. It is an organizational matter, ensuring the fund is ready when Paul arrives. 3. No Mention of Worship: The verse does not mention worship, prayer, breaking bread, or any other elements typically associated with a worship service. It focuses solely on preparing a financial collection. Summary Acts 20:7 describes a gathering on what would be Saturday night, and breaking bread was a daily practice for early Christians (Acts 2:42), not confined to a specific day. Both Acts 20:7 and 1 Corinthians 16:2 describe practices occurring on the first day of the week but do not explicitly prescribe Sunday as a day of worship. Acts 20:7 is a narrative of a particular event, while 1 Corinthians 16:2 is an instruction for financial preparation. Neither verse directly commands or establishes Sunday as the new Sabbath or a regular day for Christian worship services.

[@FredHenry1850]

As our culture goes more secular and the difficulty of finding a church that does Sunday evening services, I'm actually thinking about starting a "Worship at the park" service. I could set up under a public pavilion, open with prayer, set up my electric piano, sing a few songs and preach a message. I want to not only give believers an opinion for Sunday evening worship, but also use it to evangelize my local community. I used to be a frontier missionary, but, now being stuck in America in this season, I still desire to work in the ministry. I might start a public, outdoor worship service on the Lord's Day.

The calendar answers that question, though many claim that the calendar was changed (not valid). The best way to know is to ask an eye witness. Jews have been keeping the Sabbath on Saturday for thousands of years. The seventh day ( not one day in seven) is the Sabbath of the Lord your God.

[@luisarroyo9285]

Sabbath now has a third meaning. It pointed to the future when Jesus would make us free from the chains of sin that lead to death by He himself dying and atoning for our sins. In the future it will have another meaning when Jesus returns and we reign with Him for a thousand years. A day is like a thousand years to God so we expect Him to come at the 7th millennium to bring a “day” of rest! Why the church threw away the Sabbath is beyond me. Probably to distance themselves from the Jews when they were hated during the dark ages.

[@InTheGarden1960]

When man says; "I think" one needs to be wary of what is being taught. Any time man tries to explain God and his ways, you can bet that man is going against God.

[@daniloplanas]

In conclusion, the two great works of God, Jesus Christ, are creation and salvation, with the latter, was reflected in the 4th commandment and was not anymore mentioned in the New Testament, having been fulfilled by Jesus Christ, the Lord of the Sabbath, where Lord means having power by His ressurection through the spirit of holiness, giving spiritual rest to man by repentance i.e. from unbelief to believe in Christ Jesus, giving faith for the forgiveness of sins. Christians are not to be deceived to do this or to do that regarding Sabbaths.

[@returntoeden]

Aren't Christians suppose to follow Christ? (Matthew 4:19) And He saith unto them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. (John 10:27) My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me: (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. (1 John 2:6) He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked. Acts 18:4 & 11---Paul preached 'every Sabbath' to the Jews and Gentiles for 1.5 years, which equates to about 84 Sabbaths with no mention of the holiness of the 1st day or the day of resurrection. Shabbat shalom.

4 primary phases of the moon. Each phase lasts 7 days. 4*7=30. I suppose one can still ask, why 7. But I think the 7 churches in revelation have something to do with it. Maybe something like God is not only God of the material,but of the immaterial. Imagine,a guy from Galilee and Bethlehem,a bruised reed he did not break, wound up in the higher society,and was killed by them,but changed the world as we know it. "I have overcome the world."

The seventh day is Saturday or Sunday ?

[@mitchellosmer1293]

SATURDAY--Sunset Friday -to sunset Saturday

[@rick382]

Dr. Godfrey need to take a second look at which day he calls the Sabbath in Genesis. The Sabbath is not Sunday, sunday is the first day of the week. The Bible says after the Sabbath ends (Saturday) the first day of the week ( Sunday) the wemon went to Jesus grave. I realize this today a lot of Christians mixed up the 7th day and the 1st day.. SUNDAY CANNOT BE THE 7TH DAY AND THE 1ST DAY. there are nowhere in scripture Dr. Godfrey that says Sunday is the 7th day and that the early Churches keep Sunday holy.... the jewish nation which God preserved is one of the biggest example that the Sabbath of creation is on Saturday not Sunday. Infact history and the Catholic Church confirm Sundsy is their institution, they change the rest day from Saturday to Sunday.... You must take another look. SUNDAY SABBATH IS A CATHOLIC DOGMA, ITS NOT OF GOD

Insightful. I am not 100 percent convinced that the weekly cadence of 7 days is completely detached from the natural lunar phase cycle of 28 days. Jews observe lunar months and add one additional month to the year as we do with leap days every four years. I'm not arguing that the week came after the month, but the beauty of the lunar month being divisible by 4 and 7 can hardly be overlooked.

[@Psychiatrick]

1. There is NO SUCH "THING" AS A "JEW" IN THE BIBLE! ALL tribes are set out in Genesis yet no such THING as a "Jew" tribe ... who is the patriarch of the "Jews"? 2. There are anywhere from 29 to 30 days in a lunar month. The new moon is day 1 of the lunar month but doesn't factor into the Sabbath day count. ONLY the illuminations, NOT REFLECTIONS OF THE SUN, which dictate the days of the week. The New Moon is an "off-set" ... sometimes 2 day New Moon but mostly 1 New Moon. The Weekly Sabbaths of Heavenly Father fall on the: 8th., 15th., 22nd and 29th day of each and every month. Next pagan Woden'sday is the last Sabbath of the 4th Month. for example: look up: "fourteenth day of Abib" or "Nisan". Nisan or Abib is the 1st month. The first month begins at the New Moon after the even/summer equal nox. The fourteenth day is Passover ... the 15th is the 2nd Sabbath of the New Year. The Edomites celebrate New Year in the winter Equal Nox in the fall ... going into desolation! Incidentally, the Diaspora of the Israelites ended shortly after the Edomites gave the DNA from the Cave of the Patriarchs, to the Cana'anites, during the 6 Days War June 6-11 1967 ... The Edomites claim to be God's Chosen and worked 6 Days and Rested on the 7th day ... ahhhh .... if you look at the lunar phases for that week you will find the Edomites worked on the Lunar Sabbath of that week! Thanks to the Edomites we now have mRNA to attack the DNA sequences peculiar to the seed of Abraham .. Covid is Divoc in Hebrew .. 19 is Aleph/Omega ... 1/beginning/seed of Abraham/TWINS Jacob and Esau ... Omega/9/end of the Seed of Abraham-TWINS Jacob and Esau/TWIN towers-911 the foreboding!

If you read Genesis chapter 7 in the story of the flood, you will notice the months had 30 days. So how if they wanted perfect division of the month, Six days week would have been the perfect number. Then there would have been five weeks every month.

This teaching is way off out into left field. Honouring the sabbath for Christians is resting from the works of the flesh to follow Godliness and holiness. It has zero to do with physical day rest. This was God's plan from the very beginning when he rested on the 7th day. He made it a physical day before Christ came to foreshaddow things to come when Christ would come, and now it is possible for Christians to follow the sabbath by the work of Jesus Christ who conquered the flesh. How important is the sabbath for Christians? Answer: crucial to follow. But it is simply not a physical day of rest.

[@manuaiipondraken8376]

7th day Sabbath was given to Israel as part of the previous covernant and was never change. Jews continue to observe the 7th day Sabbath, so nothing has change. Jesus also kept the 7th day Sabbath because he is a Jew born under the law, and as his Jewish custom was, that is correct thing for him to do. However, under the new covernant, which we gentiles comes in, there is no 7th day Sabbath and Jesus never teach the keeping of 7th day Sabbath. In fact, his disciples broke the 7th day sabbath law according to the Jews, and he defended them, because he is the Lord of the Sabbath. The apostles and the early christians began to break bread and sharing the Word of God on the first day of the week (Acts 20:7). Breaking of bread is the same as our worship service today. Emperor Constantine only endorse what was already practice by early christians. And the Jews continue to keep the 7th day Sabbath as it was part of a covernant made between them and God. We gentiles were not part of that covernant. Gentiles enjoy the same blessings but under a new covernant by Jesus Christ. We continue to obey God but not through the law written on a stone tablet, which was part of the old covernant. We obey God through Jesus Christ who put his laws in our heart, the substance of the stone tablet. Just as the animal sacrifice is the shadow of Christ as sacrifice, animal's blood is the shadow of the blood of Jesus, the 7th day Sabbath is the shadow of God's Sabbath rest made available to us in Christ. (Mathew 11:28-29), a rest for our soul. God rested on the 7th day after creation, and remain in his Sabbath rest to this day. He never kept it every 7th day of the week, the way he commanded Israel to keep, because that was the shadow (Colossians 2:16-17) of his true rest made available in Christ. The 7th day in Genesis only begins with evening but no morning which means, we are still in the 7th day today and God is still in his rest. So the Jews were commanded to keep the Sabbath day (Shadow), but more importantly, they were expected of God to enter the land of Canaan (type of God's Sabbath Rest, Hebrew 4:8) and remain in it. Unfortunately, They didn't because of unbelief. So under Christ, we still keep the Sabbath, but not the way Israel kept it. We keep it the way God kept it since creation. It must be a dwelling place for our soul to rest from worries, stress and all anxieties of life that suppress our soul and not a one day church service in week. With regards to the day, let no one judge you (Colossians 2:16-17) as we now have access to the Sabbath rest (substance), Sabbath day(Shadow) no longer matters. Hebrew 4:7, We have a new Sabbath day called "TODAY". Today we must enter into the Sabbath Rest of God and remain in it For God entered into his rest after creation and he remain in it to this day. That is the way we should keep the Sabbath under Christ and his covernant. This is not disobedience to the law, it's fulfilling the Sabbath law under the new covernant. (Matthew 5:17). Even the Jews or the Adventist who observe the 7th Sabbath day must also enter into the Sabbath Rest of God. It is possible for you to keep the shadow(Day) and miss out on the substance (Rest). Worship shall be a daily lifestyle. Isaiah 66:23 From one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath to another, all mankind will come and bow down before me," says the Lord. That means, worship must be your daily life style, not an activity you perform one day in a week When Jesus returns, we will enter into his Sabbath rest and remain in it for the entire millennium just as God enter and remain in his sabbath rest since creation. We will not keep it the way he commanded Israel to keep under the previous covernant which was only the shadow. God never change, but the way he relates to man and man relates to him change under the new covernant in Christ.

His giving us rest doesn't mean the 7th day Sabbath is done away. It is the day that the Father started in Creation week when He "ceased" from His work. Yeshua /Jesus said the Sabbath was made for MAN not for the Jews. He knows that we need to cease from our work and rest for a day and He chose the day! It is a mark of His authority. 1Sa 15:22 KJV And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD?

No command to Worship the Lord on tbe Sabbath

[@returntoeden]

Worship is an expression of 'love' which He does not force, we have to be willing to worship Him on the day He set aside. Eze 20:12,20; Isa 58:13-14; Exo 20:8-11; Rev 14:6-7 uses the word 'worship' in the context of the Creator, not Redeemer nor day of resurrection. Same language is used in the 4th commandment, which also points to the day it was sanctified in Gen 2:3. Rev 14:9-12 reveals more about what the false worship is and in verse 12, it is evidently clear that all 10 commandments are essential to not receive the mark.

@@mikemccormick9667 Greetings, there is a great misunderstanding amongst Christians today regarding Col 2:14-17. I believe that there is only one way to not be deceived, and that is to accept the plain words of scripture as truth. Yeshua said "Sabbath was made for man" not "made for Jews". When was Sabbath made? At Creation before sin, after He made Adam, which means "man" in Hebrew: Gen 2:1-3->>word "rested"=Shabbat. When did Jews first appear on earth? Around 2 millennia after the 7th day was sanctified/made holy/set apart/hallowed. Why does the 4th commandment make explicit reference to Creation before sin? I urge you to study the difference between "ordinance" and law of God. The Hebrew tabernacle/sanctuary service is a beautiful imagery (type) of what was/is to come (anti-type) upon the believers/followers of YeHoVaH/ Yeshua for all of mankind, and encompasses the entire blip of the fallen race until Yeshua returns, which is symbolized as the "feast of tabernacle" ceremony, which is also represented as the marriage supper: Matt 25:1-10; Luke 14:12-24; Rev 19:7-9 Leviticus 23 gives a clear description of the difference between "feast" (related to meat/drink) Sabbath vs 7th-day Sabbath. They were treated alike, but one is an ordinance, and the other is a commandment of YeHoVaH/Yeshua. Lev 23:37-38 gives you a clear "thus saith YHVH" answer to distinguish the two types of Sabbath here and the one in Col 2:16 is referring to the "feast" Sabbaths because it includes "meat/drink". Hope this helps. Praise YeHoVaH for the marriage supper is at hand!

Quote----There is no command in scipture to worship on a sabath. Yes we worship our Lord Jesus... unquote So, you just "REST"????? Sleep?? Sit on the couch and do nothing??? Watch football ? Drink beer and eat chips??? What day is SANCTIFIED by GOD????? The ONLY DAY--seventh day!!! John. 14. [15] If ye love me, keep my commandments. [21] He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. --WHAT commandments is that about?? 613? Nine?????? 613??? ----1 John 2:4-6 New King James Version (NKJV) He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. -----WHAT commandments is that about?? 613? Nine?????? 613??? How many?? Or only the ones you like??? Hebrews 4:10 In-Context 10 for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his. 11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience. What "rest" is that about?
