In the cool of the day... and you say seventh day evening...
I am of the opinion that it could have been, early in the morning as it began to dawn, the first day of the week.
While it was yet dark...
Jhn 20:1 The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.
Gen 3:8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
Jhn 19:41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.
Jhn 20:9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
Jhn 20:10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.
Kind of the same thing with Cain, when God came to see their offerings, and God didn't like Cain's offering.
I believe there is another "week" from the time God finished talking with Adam until he appeared to Cain.
And I judge this according to what Paul says here:
1Co 16:2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
Gen 4:3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
in the process of time..
process:
- end
- end, at the end of (of time)
- end (of space)
Even the first day God created the earth it was without form and void and covered with darkness.
darkness like ignorance, unknowing, no light in it.
Off to a rocky start..
Adam heard the voice of the Lord walking in the garden.. Adam wasn't expecting the Lord and he hid himself.
Kind of like Peter who was out fishing and when he knew it was the Lord walking on the shore,
he hid himself among the other fish in the ocean LOL
Because he was naked.
revealed, exposed, uncovered.. he aught to have been out fishing for men.
He got caught like a fish in a net.
I believe Peter was fishing on the first day of the week.
No, I don't have scripture to prove it..
I just try adding 2+2 and see what I come up with an answer.
And I'm no fan of commom core. I prefer the right balance.
So could the cool of the day have been early while it was yet dark, the first day of the week?
just thinking..

They are actually trying to change this. They want Juneteenth to be the "official" Independence day.
Not based on a free country, but based on freedom from slavery which the very last proclomation was given in Texas on June 19th, I think it was 3 years after Lincoln penned the proclomation of emancipation.
People just like changing things.. like clothes..
ha, made me think of a leopard trying to change their spots.
I think they call it camoflauge..
anywhoo.

Which reminds me of when Ananias brought an offering to Peter and Ananias died, and so did his wife.
"comparing spiritual with spiritual"
I wonder what day this was:
Act 5:1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
Act 5:2 And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
Act 5:3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
Act 5:4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.
Act 5:5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
Gen 4:5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
Gen 4:6 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
Gen 4:7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
thou shalt rule over him.. sounds like Cain gets to rule over death.
Jesus has the keys now though. Because Jesus overcame death.
Which makes me think of Satan and Jesus in the wilderness. If you are the son of God, prove it.
Jesus proved it.
He took the keys away from Cain.
just thinking..

Here we go again ring a ring a rosies. Barny Fife, as long as you agree with Catholicism's Antichrist's HEART of all LIES, you ought to keep silent on the isSue whether the Sabbath is the Seventh Day of the week or not.
ALL FALL DOWN of the Plague!
O how we love our Antichrist quacks and nurses.
Leave God's Sabbath DEAD for lack of life's blood. We, big in our own eyes LIE-SPAWNING little horns, DIVERTED LIFE'S SUPPLY to the Heart and Head of Christ's Gospel, to the Devil's POISONED spring of life, the resurrection from the dead of the Queen of days.
I give up. NO HOPE FOR Seventh day Adventism : HERE'S THE PROOF!
There is no hope the Harmed Word of God to be revived back to Edenic strength and purity or ever as at the Red Sea's shores be preached triumphantly again.
Revelation's call fell on unwilling rebellious ears. The Pope has spoken, his priestess acclaimed, now let all creation rejoice for the day of joy and gladness ANTICHRIST is raised up from the dead again! Desire of Ages, E.G. White of EVIL prophetess true and faithful.
NO HOPE FOR Seventh day Adventism : HERE'S THE PROOF!
According to Scripture, Christ died on Friday, Barny Fife though echoing your high priestess, is YOU, lying in God's face against Scripture the Holy Spirit breathed. Jesus said, such false witness against Him, is the false witness of man against the Spirit of God, which shall not be forgiven him in eternity. Mark 15:42 the Sixth Day of the week IT IS WRITTEN, IS WITNESS AGAINST YOU.
That Christ <<rose on Sunday, the first day of the week>> practically all churches acknowledge! Not <this fact> but this FICTION, <<when they observe Good Friday and Easter Sunday.>> Here is the Bible evidence!

Narrow is the Way
Some of the most astonishing prophecies in the Bible have to do with the proportion of people who will be saved at the coming of Christ. Jesus clearly taught that only a comparative few would be ready to inherit His kingdom. He said, “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Matthew 7:13, 14).
In Luke 18:8, by asking a very penetrating question, Jesus implied that the “few” might be even less than we could hope or imagine. “Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?” Again, the Master spoke of the final separation in these words: “And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man” (Luke 17:26). Only eight people were saved from the flood and “as it was then” so shall it be at His coming. Other Bible writers and prophets use similar language to portray the “little flock,” the “remnant,” and the “few” who will prove faithful to the very end.
The fact that so few will be saved is not nearly as shocking as the reason given in the Bible for their loss. It seems obvious that great multitudes will be excluded from heaven even though they professed Christ, worshiped Him regularly, and spent much of their time doing wonderful works in His name. Jesus said, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity” (Matthew 7:21-23).
These verses reveal that the earth will be flooded with a lot of false religion in the last days. Millions will be spending their time, their effort, and their money in promoting a religion that involves apparent miracles, apparent spiritual gifts, and much enthusiastic activity. All of this is explicitly spelled out in the teaching of our Lord. Yet those many will finally be utterly rejected by Jesus and shut out of heaven. Talk about startling truth! More people need to get their eyes open to this little-understood situation that will characterize the end time. Then we need to find out how to avoid the vast spiritual delusions which will cause so many religious people to be lost.
Why will they be rejected in spite of their devoted worship and ministry in the name of Jesus? It has caused some people almost to despair of salvation. How can one know that his own religion will not finally be found in this category? Let us seriously look for the answers to these questions. Our salvation does not depend upon our sincerity, but upon finding the truth in God’s Word and obeying it!

Obedience is the Acid Test of a Valid Religion
The first point we must understand is this: RELIGIOUS ACTIVITY IS QUITE USELESS IF WE ARE NOT DOING THE WILL OF GOD. Christ declared that calling on God’s name, and even leading out in great selfless humanitarian programs, will be wasted if obedience to God’s will is excluded. Mark this fact upon the table of your mind and never forget it—the Scriptures exalt OBEDIENCE as the distinguishing test of a valid religion. Those who engage ever so fully in the preaching of the name of Jesus—with time, talent, and money—and do not keep His commandments, cannot meet the approval of God. In fact, because they are not obeying Christ, such worshipers actually open a door by which Satan can enter unrecognized and work miracles through them, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, which they ascribe to the power of God. The plaintive plea, “Have we not prophesied . . . and in Thy name cast out devils?” is proof positive that their miracles had been done by some other power than that of Christ, albeit in His name. If Jesus never knew them, who else could work such miracles? Only Satan. The Bible speaks of “the spirits of devils, working miracles” (Revelation 16:14).
By the way, what did Jesus mean when He said, “I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity”? How does one really come to “know” the Lord? The beloved John tells us, “Whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him” (1 John 3:6). “He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him” (1 John 2:4). Knowing Him means we obey Him. Biblically, it is impossible to be a true child of God while refusing to obey the commandments of God. Willful disobedience cuts off the relationship, drives away the Holy Spirit by which we are sealed, and effectively removes the individual from the position of grace.
Now we begin to see how simple it is to test the religious spirits that are in the world today. It is time that we look past the stimulating music, the spellbinding oratory, and even the exciting witnessing programs and apply the test set up by the great Author of all truth—Jesus Himself. He made it exceedingly clear that the original requirements of God have remained unchanged. The condition of obedience which would have kept man in Eden becomes the condition for his restoration to Eden. “If ye love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15).
Love is Not Legalism
We must not fail to emphasize at this point that element of love which must also attend all acceptable obedience. Forcing the forms of compliance without a personal love-experience with Christ the Savior is fully as fatal a mistake as omitting all obedience. Jesus had to deal with the cold formalism of the Pharisees over and over again. And because He so thoroughly condemned the program of salvation by works, many have hastily assumed that He considered obedience unimportant. Now we need to see the beautiful balance in Christ’s doctrine of faith and works. He taught that obeying in order to be saved is the worst kind of legalism, but obeying because we are saved is the acid test of a true religious experience. Obedience follows true faith just as surely as day follows night. Incidentally, the word “legalist” has been thrown around with too much abandon. I greatly fear that many sincere Christians have been accused of legalism only because their love for Christ led them to be more particular in their obedience than their accusers. Never forget that a legalist is one who believes that he can be saved by his works. The person who keeps the commandments because he doesn’t want to displease the God he loves is not a legalist at all. The old argument is often heard, “I’d rather see a happy, loving Christian who doesn’t keep all of the commandments than to see an unloving one who strictly obeys the law.” Why try to measure degrees of guilt? Both are completely wrong. Our feelings have nothing to do with it. Christ has established the standard of measurement. Nothing less than a “faith which worketh by love” will be accepted.
But let us return to the alarming proposition that most of mankind will be lost, including the fervent religious activists. Worship is commanded in the Bible and is a necessary ingredient of true religion, but will a host of worshiping Christians be lost? Jesus said, “But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men” (Matthew 15:9). Another shattering statement of truth! People will engage in vain worship if they reject true doctrine in favor of man’s tradition.

When is Worship Vain?
On several occasions Jesus urged the necessity of walking in all known truth. “If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin” (John 15:22). “If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth” (John 9:41). When a man learns a point of truth in the Bible and refuses to obey it, he is guilty of practicing sin. Such a man is fighting the Holy Spirit whose primary work is to guide into all truth. This refusal to obey hardens the conscience, causing the Holy Spirit to finally withdraw and leads to the unpardonable sin. No wonder such worship is vain. By rejecting the commandments of God in favor of human traditions, the Holy Spirit is spurned. According to Acts 5:32 only those who obey are eligible to be filled with the Spirit.
Let us pause now and consider the profound significance of what we have discovered. The vast majority of people will be lost, including many who work miracles in Christ’s name, worship Him, and claim to know Him as His children. The reason they will be lost is that they do not love Him enough to keep all of His commandments. For some reason these ardent church workers have learned to look lightly upon the law of God. Most of them consider it legalism to believe that disobedience could keep them out of heaven. Satan has blinded their eyes to the beautiful, intimate relationship of love and obedience. Millions of Protestant Christians have actually been taught that their obedience or disobedience can have no effect whatever upon their ultimate salvation.
In view of the deep-rooted tradition of popular Christianity today, we can see how Satan has manipulated millions into a state of mind to reject the claims of God’s moral law. Under the twisted interpretation of a cheap grace (someone has called it “sloppy agape”) the stage has been set for the devil’s master strategy of deception. The final contest between truth and error will revolve around the basic issue of loyalty or disloyalty, obedience or disobedience. And the focus will be squarely on the fourth commandment which contains the great distinctive sign of God’s creative power and authority.
Sunday—A Tradition of Man
It seems more than coincidental that Jesus spelled out “traditions of men” as the false doctrine that would lead into vain worship. The chief tradition today which has turned multitudes from keeping the Ten Commandments is the doctrine of Sunday-keeping. Almost any Christian of any persuasion can defend and extol nine of the Ten Commandments. It is only the Sabbath which has stirred deep hatred and prejudice against the holy law of God.
Who inspired that attitude of contempt for the only part of the Bible which God wrote with His own hand? How have so many millions been led to equate obedience with legalism? The tragedy is that ministers have largely been responsible for turning people away from obedience. People tell me of angry tirades made by their own pastors against the Sabbath. Unable to give any Bible reason for Sunday observance, and frustrated by the insistent questions of their flock, many pastors turn to emotional attacks upon the validity of the law. I have found that these attacks generally follow two lines of argument. The fundamentalist group of preachers emphasizes the “spirit of the law” while insisting that the letter is not binding. This allows for the specific seventh day to be set aside for Sunday. The other group of more liberal theologians contends that no special day of worship is necessary and the believer is entirely free from all claims of the law.
Since sin is defined in the Bible as “the transgression of the law,” and Paul affirms that “Where no law is, there is no transgression,” any attack on the law serves only to weaken man’s convictions about sin (1 John 3:4; Romans 4:15). James tells us that the breaking of even one commandment is a violation of all ten, and constitutes transgression or sin (James 2:10-12).
Is it a serious matter to tear down confidence in this great hand-written moral code of God? Do men take sin more lightly when they lose faith in the authority of the Ten Commandments? Without question they do. The strange circumstance of ministers teaching people to sin is not easy to comprehend. It is only when we study the great lines of prophecy concerning these last days that we can begin to understand the phenomenon.
Apparently, God had to deal with unfaithful pastors in both Old and New Testament times. Some strong judgments had to be pronounced against the shepherds who misled the flock. Watchmen who would not tell the truth about approaching dangers were held accountable for the deaths which resulted. Such preachers are actually turned into agents of the evil one. Paul wrote, “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness” (2 Corinthians 11:14, 15).
Only the inspired Book would label these ministers in such a blunt manner. Apparently, God looks upon such men as actual ministers of Satan because they fear to tell the truth and, instead, give their own ideas. It is time to understand the great conspiracy of Satan to lead men of the cloth—high-placed religious leaders—to teach perverse doctrines in the name of Christ. Paul predicted that “the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine . . . And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables” (2 Timothy 4:3, 4).
It is interesting to note that these last-day teachers are described as turning their ears away from the truth. This means that they saw it, understood it, but did not want to acknowledge it. God made exactly the same charge against His priests in the Old Testament. “Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them” (Ezekiel 22:26).
The priests of the Old Testament hid their eyes from the Sabbath and the ministers of the last days would turn their ears from the truth. How tragic! In other words, they would see it but would try to get away from it by refusing to keep looking. I have often talked to ministers of various persuasions on the subject of the Sabbath. Some have honestly admitted that Saturday is the true Lord’s day of the Bible. Others reject it for various reasons. A few just could not believe that God was so particular about which day to observe. They reasoned that God would be understanding with those who found it more convenient to keep a different day than the seventh day. Some ministers that I talked with do not really accept the Bible as the inspired Word of God.
On several occasions Jesus urged the necessity of walking in all known truth. “If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin” (John 15:22). “If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth” (John 9:41).

In other words, they would see it but would try to get away from it by refusing to keep looking. I have often talked to ministers of various persuasions on the subject of the Sabbath. Some have honestly admitted that Saturday is the true Lord’s day of the Bible. Others reject it for various reasons. A few just could not believe that God was so particular about which day to observe. They reasoned that God would be understanding with those who found it more convenient to keep a different day than the seventh day. Some ministers that I talked with do not really accept the Bible as the inspired Word of God.

Preachers in Doubt
It is shocking to realize how skepticism and higher criticism have robbed many pastors of their faith in the Bible. Even many of the old-line conservative evangelical denominations are becoming riddled with doubts about the inspiration of the Scriptures. Often that is used to justify their rejection of the Sabbath.
I spent an interesting afternoon with a Southern Baptist minister. Some of his members were attending the Amazing Facts crusade and had questioned him about what they had learned. For the first time in his life he delved into the subject in order to find answers for his people. I listened in amazement as he explained why he could not accept the Sabbath. I was amazed because the Southern Baptists have had the historic reputation of being fundamental, Bible-believing Christians. But this young man, who graduated from the Louisville Southern Baptist Seminary, did not believe in the Genesis story of creation. He denied the flood story and affirmed his belief in evolution as the explanation of man’s existence. He explicitly rejected the story of Jonah and the whale. Finally, I asked him if he believed in the virgin birth of Jesus. His answer was, “I don’t believe it is necessary to believe in the virgin birth to be saved.”
I wish I could tell you that this attitude is exceptional among the Baptists, but it is not. This pastor assured me that over half of the Southern Baptist ministers believed just like he did. I certainly hope he is mistaken about that estimation, and I’m frankly of the opinion that he was exaggerating the numbers. Nevertheless, I’m convinced that the majority of this young preacher’s classmates had lost their faith in the inspired Word while studying at the seminary, just as he had.
Finally, under close questioning, he weakly affirmed some kind of personal faith in the virgin birth even though he didn’t think it was too important. I asked him if his congregation knew about his views on the Bible, and he assured me that they did not. He did not dare preach the things that he believed. I said, “Dave, if your church knew what you have expressed to us, they would fire you on the spot.” I could understand perfectly why he was afraid to preach his convictions.
It should not be too great a surprise to see this wave of skepticism growing. Basically, it is one of the signs of the end of time. We are watching prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes. What I have just told you is only one of the dramatic signs that Jesus is coming very soon.
Do you wonder how the seminaries and great denominations have drifted into this sort of open doubt of the Word of God? One reason is obvious. By denying the Sabbath they opened the door to doubts about the literal six-day creation. Another easy step led to the vast periods assigned to evolution. God gave the Sabbath as a divine reminder of His sovereign creative power. Representing His authority as the only true God, the Sabbath was to be a weekly reminder that the only God deserving of worship is the One who alone had the power to create and recreate. As a sign of both creation and redemption, observance of the Sabbath would be a perpetual protection against the evil of evolution as well as modernism. When the churches rejected the Sabbath, they also rejected the strongest bulwark which would have protected them from the kind of deadly disbelief which the young minister expressed. No man can be an evolutionist or a modernist who truly believes and keeps the Sabbath.
If the Sabbath Can Be Changed Then the Bible Can Be Changed
This state of confusing doubt is also the fruit of antinomianism which has been so widely espoused. By trying to do away with the moral law of the Ten Commandments, the churches have compromised the doctrine of an infallible Bible. If the Sabbath can be explained away, if the great basic moral law can be nullified, then almost any other part of the Bible can be rationalized. And it has been, by millions who were taught to do so by the preacher behind the pulpit.
What does God think about those who have created this shameful breach in His law? Through the prophet Malachi God describes the failure of His ministers to uphold the law: “For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts. But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law . . . according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law” (Malachi 2:7-9).
God charges the preachers with being partial in the law. That means they preached part of it but not all of it. They caused people to stumble at the law, which indicates that they influenced people to break it. Throughout the Old Testament God outlined the development of a Satan-inspired program to set aside His law.
Closing this subject, I would like to trace one chain of such prophecies, all links of which are related by a common symbol. I want you to notice the connecting thread which is picked up by both major and minor prophets and woven through their writings.

God’s Law—A Protecting Wall
The chief symbol of God’s law seems to be that of a wall, and it is used extensively throughout the Old Testament. Isaiah dramatically represented disobedience to the law as a break in the wall. “This is a rebellious people . . . children that will not hear the law of the LORD . . . Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall” (Isaiah 30:9-13).
Follow closely now as we allow other inspired writers to enlarge upon this basic concept of the breached wall. Ezekiel indicated that some transgressors of the law would try to cover their act of sin by smoothing over the break in the wall. Unfortunately, they would substitute some weak, counterfeit material to make the wall look good but which would not prove to be acceptable at all. “Woe unto the foolish prophets . . .Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge . . . and one built up a wall, and lo, others daubed it with untempered mortar” (Ezekiel 13:3-10).
Here God rebukes the spiritual leaders for not making up the gaps and breaches in the wall. As the watchmen on the walls they were to be the very first ones to notice any weakness and to warn of the break immediately and make restoration of the defenses. In this case, not only were the priests not making proper repair of the breach but were condoning a dangerous substitute of weak materials which God could not approve. The untempered mortar represents an effort to gloss over the seriousness of the defect by false teaching instead of leading the people back to full obedience. Repeatedly God had to warn the priests against weakening the authority of His law. Malachi warned the priests: “Ye have caused many to stumble at the law . . . ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law” (Malachi 2:8-9). It was such an attitude that caused God to rebuke them for daubing the wall with untempered mortar.
The Wall Broken — The Sabbath Breach
Now we are ready to establish the interesting fact that the primary breach in the law had to do with the fourth commandment. The prophet picked up the theme of the wall again in Ezekiel 22:26-28. “Her priests have violated my law, and profaned mine holy things . . . and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths . . . And her prophets have daubed them with untempered mortar saying, Thus saith the LORD GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken.”
Here we have a specific breach of the law (Sabbath breaking) connected with the untempered daubing. Again, it is the priests, or preachers, themselves who are responsible for the error. As we have already noted, they have broken the law by hiding their eyes from the Sabbath. This indicates that they clearly saw it but deliberately turned away and refused to recognize or obey it. But what does it mean that they daubed the wall with untempered mortar? It doesn’t take a lot of intelligence to see that they were trying to fill up the Sabbath breaking with counterfeit material that did not really restore the wall at all.
Furthermore, they would try to make it seem that God had approved what they had done, saying, “Thus saith the LORD GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken.”
Question: Have religious leaders tried to put some false, un scriptural day in place of the true Sabbath and tried to make it appear that God condones it? Indeed they have! Instead of restoring the true seventh-day Sabbath, which had been breached by pagan infiltration of the early church, they brought in a day dedicated to ancient sun worship. Without a line of biblical authority they honored that day with the title “Lord’s Day” and continually say, “Thus saith the LORD, when the LORD hath not spoken.”

Authors - good but bad as well - find Internet the only option of its era for them to publish. So we all must suffer together. Gold-rushers be warned

Bigot!
Hey, Pentematic Grambass, it's only ONE who here argues idiotic bickering <<OF THE LAW of THE SHADOW of "ONE DAY of the week!">> and that's you. Bigot!

Being a good neighbor means we are all first responders no matter what day it is, and I likewise believe America as a nation began to fall, when Americans began to put all such responsibility to others paid to do so.It's interesting to me that everytime Jesus is confronted by the "religious authority" , it always falls on a Sabbath.
This "Those that keep a Sabbath by law cannot be... "
First responders.. Was Jesus a first responder when it came to helping the man at the pool?
Emergency Care Workers... Was Jesus an Emergency Care Worker when the woman who had an issue of blood was healed?
Commercial pilots.. lol .. Did the disciples follow Jesus as their "pilot" as they travelled through the corn fields to pick corn?
This is what the Pharisees did. They accused Jesus of breaking his own law.
Did Jesus and the disciples keep themselves from interfering in public affairs, did they withdraw themselves from society?
Or did they inject themselves smack dab in the middle of the fray?
God has no exemptions for His Commandments of law...
And this is true..
Your not supposed to go about doing your own thing, regular commerce (buying and selling carnally speaking)
A big thing back then and probably today as well was manufacturing idols to bow down to.. works of their hands...
The difference is doing ones own work and doing the works of the Lord.
And there is a whole list of what is acceptable to the Lord to do on the Sabbath days.
These are His exemptions:
Isa 58
And this is exactly what Jesus did do on the Sabbaths.
As our example of how we aught to follow His example.
Don't be a Pharisee

Nonetheless, your non-answer is admission:
No Sabbath-keeper can be hired into the military, police, emergency care, fire department, political office, etc...as a career. They must keep to themselves and not interfere in any public business and affairs of authority.
No Sabbath-keeper can do any work of employment that by its' very nature demands weekend duty, whether it be Saturday or Sunday according to the day held by them as a Sabbath.
Sabbath-keeping by commandment in modern society is not just a cessation of employed work on a certain day, but is of necessity a withdrawal from any and all paid public authority and duty. They also cannot own businesses, nor be managers and bosses in businesses that remain open on their Sabbath, because then they would be managing and bossing people to work on a Sabbath, which they would then be partakers of breaking the Sabbath.
Neither should they accept any paid service from employees on their Sabbath, lest they partake of the employee's sin on the Sabbath. That would now also include deliveries to home.
They also can conduct no buying nor selling in markets, lest they likewise partake of others breaking a Sabbath:
And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
There are no real Sabbath-keepers today, as there was in the old covenant, where such a Sabbath was commanded, and every Israelite was indeed supposed to be a first responder to neighbors in any matter of emergency, care, and war.
Sabbath keepers cannot live in nursing homes, nor accept such paid service in their homes on their Sabbath day. If they are taken unwillingly to an emergency ward, then they must depart before the next Sabbath, or have their fellow Sabbath keepers come and release them. They cannot schedule any surgery nor medical aid on their Sabbath days.
Since all such things are now done by employed Sabbath breakers, no such assistance by them while employed can be allowed, lest a Sabbath-Commander partake of their sin of employment on the Sabbath.
There are no Sabbath-keepers anymore, only Sabbath-commanders who like to think they truly keep a Sabbath, as the Israelites of old, who were commanded to do so. A real Sabbath keeper must live out of range of any such employed responders, lest they partake of their Sabbath breaking sins: I.e. them that dwell in the rocks and caves, seeking surety against partaking of other men's sins of Sabbath breaking by employment duty.
Finally, all Sabbath keepers by commandment are judges of others according to their Sabbath days, even judging one another in the day of the Sabbath. There is no commandment of God, that God does not judge by. Nor are there any keepers of His commandments that do not judge with His judgment. James judged that people who do not fulfill their royal law of loving their neighbors are dead in faith: that is a judgment made according to the royal law, which is a commandment of God.
There are no commandments of God that are not law of God, and no commandment of God is without judgment of God, even as no law of God is without transgression of it, by them that do not obey.
Every Sabbath keeper by commandment must judge Sabbath breakers as transgressors of God's law, and wilfully sinning by breaking His commandment.
Don't be a hypocritical Sabbath commanding Pharisee

All we do is snap at each other, try to prove how much smarter we are than the next guy..it's pathetic.
Then stop doing so.
Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry. Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.
And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus. This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord.
The very moment anyone puts forth anything as Scripture of God, they immediately place themselves at the ready to defend their teaching, whether it be Scripture of truth or not.
Otherwise, if they will not hear correction of their teaching through Scripture, then they must flee, and refuse to hear any.
That is not a teacher of Scripture, but a wanna be cult leader.
We are to study, so that we can show ourselves approved of God by Scripture, when we choose to minister to others what we have studied.
We show ourselves approved by defending our teaching as Scripture indeed.
Jesus' ministry often required Hi to dispute the Scriptures with them, that did not believe Him, but believed their own reading of Scripture, which was their own tradition, rather than truly Scripture.
Therefore, disputing in the Scriptures is Scriptural and Christ-like. Arguing from our own minds about things of God is vain argument of the world.
Disputing the things written in the Bible with one another is no different than disputing history or science written in other books, based upon what is written in them. No scholar expects to be believed without serious interrogation of his work. In fact, a real scholar seeking to teach the truth of their field, welcomes such interrogation, because it can only confirm his theory, or better yet correct his scholarship
Show me a religion that allows for no reasoning and dispute pertaining to the things of that religion, and I will show you a cult.
When the Bereans went to Scripture to see if what Paul told them out of Scripture, was really Scripture or not, he did not object. Neither would he have objected, if someone brought Scripture to him to challenge what He preached.
I welcome any and all Scripture brought against my arguments of Scripture. Those who only want to preach, but not be challenged, are cult-leaders in the making,and I have no time for them, because they refuse any correction of Scripture.

How did Jesus keep the Sabbath?
This is the example we are told to follow.
Did Jesus do anything that was outside or different than the Sabbath day given in the 10 commandments?
I'm going to work on this.. work on it with me.
