How many people believe this then go to eat lunch religiously, making a kitchen crew serve them, and call that sabbath?
When God said go two miles with the one who asks you to go one, to give your coat also to a thief who takes your shirt, that you're no better than a heathen if you only love those you think aren't heathans, that great love is setting aside your own life for someone else, considering everyone more important than you, doing good to your enemies without grumbling and making yourself the servant of your neighbors - when God said whatever you do to the one you call 'least' you do to Him and that you should give to everyone who asks you without demanding it back...
Whose yoke is He telling us to put on by doing this, and does He stop working?
Entering His rest is ceasing to do your own work, and joining Him in His.
IMO anyone who is claiming 'sabbath' to refuse all these commands & think they are justifying themselves through inaction does not understand Who He is and what He does.
He is talking about boasting in self righteousness while ignoring the commandment 'love your neighbor' and thinking of his boss as his own unclean servant instead of considering himself the servant and walking in the shoes of the Son of Man who came not to be served, but to serve, Whom they sought to kill because He did good works serving sinners on sabbath days, healing them.
he would murder me in his heart if I made myself someones servant on some day he thinks is special serve-not day.
Sorry, but I don't like your accusations. They are not fair, and it sounds like you are doing what you are accusing him of and it isn't pretty.
