You were commenting on Pearl's uploaded article in post 144 which argued that the Sabbath observance is not required. Here is the conclusion of the article you commented on:- 'The Sabbath was given to Israel, not the church. The Sabbath is still Saturday, not Sunday, and has never been changed...

The 4th Commandment is specific regarding our relationship to work and time for ourselves and those 'within our borders'. It is clear just like the other nine. No excuse for murder because one is at war....no excuse for adultery because it's irresistible or convenient....no excuse for bearing...

Your colourful language Gerhard reminders me of the various accusations that Jesus endured from the religious leaders.

I'm afraid Cooper you won't find that rational in the scriptures. What it is doing is ratcheting the scriptures around to say what it's not saying. Jesus chastised the religious leaders in his day for doing the same thing.

You need to go back and check the question in the original post re Sabbath or Sunday...that is the point you've missed. Secondly....you have not clarified what you mean by 'the principle', you have just repeated the same statement.

Besides missing the point of the post Gerhard you mention 'the principle' three times. What is the principle?

Paul, you might want to revisit what Jesus said here noting that punctuation marks where not in the original manuscripts. Luke 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, today thou shalt be with me in paradise. The translators here have put the comma after 'thee' but if you put the...

You are correct, we are to worship every day yet in saying that the point is missed. It is in fact fudged. The Commandment we are dealing with instructs us to rest from our work and keep it Holy (set apart). Its specificity cannot be clearer when it says the 7th day of the week.

Some of her writings. What I have read is inspiring and insightful. If you haven't read her I could recommend the Conflict of the Ages series. Easy to find online. You will be surprised at how beautifully she presents Jesus in the book 'Desire of Ages' Here's a copy of Desire of Ages

Hope you don't mind if I jump in here to answer your request. John 19:31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that...

Paul, I don't wear a denominational tag but I am persuaded that the primary SDA exegesis of the the scriptures is correct. That said, I do not necessarily agree with everything that goes on or what people say in that institution. I take every person on their own merit.

Israel Jennifer, are the descendants of a man called Jacob whose name was changed to Israel. These descendants are also known as the Children of Israel. This all happened in a place we today call Palestine in the Middle East. After some years these people went to Egypt and where tricked into...

The Commandment to keep the Sabbath holy is one of the Ten Commandments found in Exodus 20 where we are instructed to rest one day a week. Notice it says the seventh day is the Sabbath. The seventh day is Saturday. Notice why it says we are to rest. It is a reminder that God is the Creator. If...

I'm sorry BJ, straw men and smoke screens don't cut it!

I suppose the World would call that astute or switched on.

Dear Bobby Jo....I notice you seem to have an opinion on lots of peoples utterances however, have you noticed the lack of response from most?. I wonder if you wonder why that is?

Let's say this whole coronavirus thing is a lie....would it make any difference in regard to the effect its having on the masses? Personally I don't think so. I have not found evil in whatever form it presents to be transparent. The boundary between truth and error is conveniently permeable and...

I think you've missed the point mjrhealth

A 'high day' Enoch, as I understand it was when a ceremonial Sabbath and a regular 7th day Sabbath coincided ie, occurred on the same day. I have looked at the view that says Jesus was crucified on the Wednesday but the information doesn't stack up all round. Juggling the scriptures to make...

Cooper, please get your information sorted out. Only accuracy delivers clarity.
