Whoa now!! Before you go off on a tangent. Where is evidence that anyone kept the Sabbath before Moses? We are children of Abraham by faith, not Moses.Raeneske said:Your scriptures tell you why God rested. Because God finished from His work. Therefore God rested, and set that day apart for holy use. Jesus also reveals why the Sabbath was made:
Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
There is also no record where God did not give the command not to take the Lord's name in vain, or not to murder. This is not sufficient evidence to believe none of the 10 Commandments existed.
You have failed to prove that anyone kept the Sabbath before Moses. The Sabbath was a non-issue before Moses, Rae. No one died as a result of profaning the Sabbath before Moses because it was not a law given to men. If it was so important for men before the Law why didn't God mention it and why don't we see any mention of men before Moses keeping it? It's just not there, Rae.Raeneske said:There is also other commandments which showed that for breaking it you are condemned to death.
Leviticus 20:10 And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
Leviticus 20:9 For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
Do we kill people for committing adultery now? Or when a son or daughter dishounours their parents? No, Jesus abolished the condemnation of immediate death for the breaking of God's law. Therefore, you are not condemned to immediate death, but have a lifetime to repent for breaking the Sababth Commandment, much like any other commandment. So, is this to say we are not punished for committing adultery, or not for dishounouring our parents. Those who do not repent shall be punished.
The 10 Commandments have not passed away. Not one jot or tittle has changed. So, why does the earth think it's been changed?
Daniel 7:25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
The only reason this power THINKS to change the law of God, is because they cannot. No one can, no matter what words they use, it will never change the law of God.
Genesis 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
Abraham was found obeying the commandments. The Sabbath was purposely classed with the Moral law, the 10 commandments.
Galatians 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
The Sabbath is mentioned 59 times in the NT. Never is sacredness detached from it. Sunday keeping is mentioned 8 times in it. Never is sacredness attached to it.
Acts 13:42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
I am beginning to see how you infer your beliefs (eisegesis) into the scriptures now on multiple topics. You take great liberty in doing that and it is very troubling and shows a lack of respect for the Scriptures.
Without any conjecture or inference or eisegesis, show me where anyone kept the Sabbath before Moses. And show me where God instructed anyone to keep it.
