Because the Sabbath was the sign of the covenant of Ishmael that ended with the New Covenant, this is why Christians do not keep the 7th day Sabbath.
Well, I have never seen a better, this is the best reason ever why Christians do not keep the Sabbath.

Do you hear, dear Lord Jesus Christ why you no longer are Lord of the Sabbath?

Jesus' three point test for a false spirit:
Does he witness of himself? Yes?
Does he convince of sin? No?
Does he testify of Righteousness in Christ or of unrighteousness in others? Of unrighteousness in others?
Well, then you should know with whom you have to do, with the devil himself!

Can think of better ones,

Exo_31:16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.

Lev_24:8 Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.

Lev_25:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.

God never made that covanent with us.

God bless

There you have it again, the LORD GOD no longer is the LORD GOD of his People, THOSE WHOM HE SAVED FROM THEIR OWN EMOLUMENT. <<God never made that covanent with us>>.. you, your bad. God however made His Only EVERLASTING Covenant with HIS PEOPLE, exclusively, OF GRACE, NEW, IN JESUS CHRIST. Hence, the Sabbath of the LORD for a sign of HIS LORDSHIP which, as his People, as He, never changes, never lies, never betrays, never forsakes, never gives up, BUT ACCOMPLISH. For God is the Omnicompetent, the Omnificent, the Omniscient, the Omnipotent, the Omnipresent in heaven and on earth and in TIME : THE SAME, THE ONLY, "I-AM-WHO-I-AM". <<God never made that covenant with us.>> You say it; you're finished; you finished yourself off. But you cannot drag me into hell with you, "For GOD thus concerning the Seventh Day COVENANTED BY THE SON : IF JESUS GAVE THEM REST, THEREFORE, FEAST-OF-SABBATH FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD FOREVERMORE REMAINS!"

Just thought I'd set up this thread for people 2 come and ask each other questions about the bible, and just 4 people 2 learn things they didn't already know!!

fill free 2 ask me a question!! and I'll ask u also a question now?

where did the Ishmaelite's come from? what tribe!! and also what were they known 4 wearing?

Hello DoveSpirit05,

Good question. :)

Genesis 25:1-18 records the offspring of Ishmael, Abraham's son (Ishmeelites).
Genesis 37:25-28; 39:1 they were known for the jewellery they wore in their noses (nose rings), The Midianites were Abraham's sons too by Keturah (Genesis 25:2), The two tribes were mixed together (Judges 8:24-25) and were only distinguishable by their nose-rings (Genesis 24:47; Genesis 35:4; Exodus 32:2 & ch).

----------------------------------

Q) Paul was shipwrecked on what island?

Death of the First-born.

Who appeared with Jesus at the mount of Transfiguration?

Hi @Sabertooth,

* Moses and Elijah appeared with the Lord Jesus Christ in a vision, portraying His resurrection power, glory and majesty when coming in His Kingdom. (Matthew 17:2-3; Matthew 17:9), which was the fulfilment of the Lord's words in Matthew 16:28. Referred to also by Peter in 2 Peter 1:16-18.

--------------------------------

Q) What sign was given to King Hezekiah that God would heal him?

In Christ Jesus
Chris

The sign of circumcision was still present during the time of the Law, and became a law, itself. Abraham's covenant would not end until the Seed came. The Seed was Jesus, and He put an end to both the Abrahamic covenant and the Ten Commandment covenant. But the Ten Commandments was a covenant by itself, and had its own sign. What was it?

Both Jews and Muslims circumcise their boys, because of Abraham, and the fact they do not recognize the Seed.

The Abrahamic Covenant was a type of the New Covenant.

But the Rahab who Matthew famously mentions in the genealogy of Jesus, as the mother of Boaz of Bethlehem(MATTHEW 1:5) is spelled Ραχαβ: Rachab. Most commentators will report that the Rahab in Christ's family line is the converted Rahab the prostitute of Jericho, but that is by no means certain because Matthew uses the other version of the name Rahab (what we call Rahab II: רהב). In English these names sound the same but in Hebrew and Greek they're as different as Johnny and Ronnie.

And if Rahab of Jericho had married someone important, such as Salmon, the great-grandfather of king David(Ruth 4:20), we would have surely heard about it at some point in the fifteen hundred years or so between Rahab of Jericho and Matthew. In HEBREWS 11:31 Paul says that Rahab's faith kept her from perishing along with the rest of the disobedient townsfolk. If her survival would have given her the opportunity to become the ancestor of Jesus Christ, Paul would have likely made a note of that too. It seems that Matthew isn't talking about Rahab of Jericho but of an other, to us unknown Rahab..."
It could be another one since the Jewish tradition says Joshua married her and that the prophet Ezekiel is one of their descendants.

Correct. :)

But when the Seed came, promised to Abraham through Isaac, and fulfilled His mission, then died, the resurrection brought the confirmation that the New Covenant was about to begin. Then when Jesus ascended He told the disciples to wait in Jerusalem for His Spirit to descend upon all of them. On the Day of Pentecost, Abraham's covenant officially ended, and circumcision as a sign was no longer in force. Now circumcision is of the spirit and not of the flesh.
