Son of Man,
Again you are wrong as scripture tells us that the Seventh Day is the Sabbath of God. And NO the Seventh Day has not changed possition in the week. There have been changes in the calendar, however they have not affected the possition of the days only the numbers, as going from the 15 to the 26 in one case, yet the day possition never changed. Plus God the Son does mind which day you worship on, as by worshiping on the first day you dishonor Him and His Father. How can you expect salvation form God when you turn your back on His Holy Days. The book of revelation tell the tale of those who do just that and it is not pretty.
Rev 18:1-5
8:1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
KJV
This warning is to all of the Protestant Churches as they are the ones who have fallen from grace, because of their apostecy, following Papal traditions instead of the Word of God.

The lunar calender has 360 days in a year. This is the calender that was used in the day of Moses. The modern calender has 365 days which is five more days per year.

The calender and keeping track of the days was severely butchered and botched during the dark ages. Some scientists say plus or minus 40 years or more and one group says there is a four hundred year discrepancy.

They do not know where the days should be placed and if you think they do you deceive yourself.

Do you know why God allowed this to happen? It was to bring to nothing the knowledge of those who want to be in bondage to the beggarly elements instead of walking with God as part of Christ's body 24/7.

Son ofMan,
There could have been years missing without disrupting the days of the week. The Jews have keep the days of the week as that is for their prides sake. So, no the days of the week are still in order 1-7 just as they were from the beginning. Even when the french had a 10 day week, which did not work, they still came back to the 7 day week in line with the rest of the world. Did you realize the first people to come here were the Puritains who were Sabbath keepers as to rmain in Europe ment death for them, as the Roman Church still had power over the secular world leaders. The main group that they went after were the Waldensians, who were also Sabbath Keepers out of Italy. The Church had them killed by the thousands at one time. So Sabbath keepers have always been here form the beginning and will still be here until the end. First day worship has no place with God, as He only ordained the 7th day as His day of worship and to turn your back on His day is to turn your back on him. The Sabbath day is His most precious day and has been the cause of his wrath many times in the past and will be the cause of His wrath in the end. Do you have any idea what is the sign and seal of God? It contains His name and His right to command obedience. It only appears in the decalouge. The people of God will suffer the tribulation, but the rest will suffer the wrath of God poured out without mercy.

The Jews kept track of nothing. They were dispersed into the nations and even their language was lost. The oldest Hebrew scriptures are 1006 AD. They are the work of the antichrist masoretes of 600 to 1100 AD.

How could the days possibly be in their proper slot since the orbit of the earth around the sun has gotten five days longer? There was a reason for the modern calender. The old 360 day calender no longer fit. This was also Gods doing. Even by this fact the days are displaced by five days each.

Gods Sabbath day is His Rest which is the millennial reign of Christ here on earth. (The kingdom of God)(The Kingdom of Heaven)

Remember it and keep it Holy 24/7 just as Christ taught.

Son of Man,
The earth has moved away from the moon approximately 247' since the time of Christ and there is no way that cam account for 5 days of time. You forger the Dead Sea Scrolls, which line up perfectly with the present Bible without the creative license taken by those who did the translating. The only scripture the apostles had to preach from was the Old Testimate, as the new had not been written at the time they began to preach.
Ex 20:8-11
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
KJV
Deut 5:12-15
12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
15 And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
KJV
Both of these scriptures are from the Word of God, do you have an argument with scripture? Both are from the Old Testimate, the one that the Apostles had to preach from.

The dead sea scrolls can not be read without the lexicons written by the antichrist masoretes, so why wouldn't they match.

I have no argument with scripture but your understanding of Scripture is lacking.

The sabbath is the millennial reign of Christ.

Man has had six days (six thousand years) to do all his evil work but on the cusp of the seventh day the Lord will put an end to it.

None of mans will or things will pass through into Gods rest.

Christ did not rest on the seventh day from doing the work of God.

He did His work especially on mans sabbath.

The millenial reign of Christ is certainly the culmination of the Sabbath rest. However, all of creation still requires rest in this present age.

None of the other Ten Commandments have been rescinded or time-shifted to the millenium.

You are missing the point, Son of Man. 'Doing the work of God' is ALWAYS acceptable. It is the arduous chores of this earthly life which we are to obstain on the Sabbath. Jesus was demonstrating to the Pharisees that the Sabbath was intended as a blessing unto mankind (and all creation) and should not to be used as an excuse to judge one another's conduct.

You'll not find Christ or any of his disciples doing anything BUT the 'work of God' on the Sabbath throughout the New Testament.

In the old way of observing the sabbath the temple priests on duty actually had an increased work load. Today we are the temple and we are the priests so how should we fulfill any and all sabbath requirements in the new covenant?

Son of Man,
Every seventh day we are to rest and commune with the Creator on the very day which He Himself rested on after His Creation was finished. He Himself sanctified and made Holy that one day out of the seven for us to rest from our worldly endevors and do just as He did when He rested. I explained where the first day worship came from and until you can find any scripture that changes that there has been no change. If you find any scripture where the change has been made by God, it is worth a million dollars to you put up by the Adventists. If they are sure enough to to post that large of a reward for anyone who can find where God Made the change, it stands to reason that it can not be found. "O," by the way the Papacy laugh at Protestants for celebrating their changed day of worship, as it shows obedience to the Pope, so if you are obescent to the Pope then keep on doing your worshiping on the first day.
Jiggyfly,
We are to celebrate the Sabbath as it was done from the beginning. The only change is the sacrifices have been fulfilled by Christ. It is necessary to understand that God never changes nor do His words, given to us from the beginning. In Genesis He gave us the sun and moon in order for us to be able to calculate when to celebrate His Holy Days. Genesis 1:14 and since there is no scripture nullifying His Sabbath only Catholic doctrine, which does not count, then the original commandment for us to worship on the seventh day is still in force.

You sound like those bron again Christians who just terrify me, hang on to your wallet boys.
Rev 22:18-19
18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
KJV
Now show me where it states that you do not have to separate the Sabbath Day from all of the rest of the week. The one day sanctified and made holy by the Creator. The one day that you are to leave all of your secular doings aside and commune with the Creator.

Keep your wallet O ye of mammon mind. You have nothing in it of interest to a disciple of Christ. Amazing you'd even say such an unchristlike thing as that. Hmmm

I am in Christ's rest always. His rest is eternal. His rest is righteousness. Every day on the calendar. The "land of Promise" is also known as the "land of rest". Heb 3 and 4 cover the fulfillment of those who, by faith, enter into the land of promise in Christ.

The O.T. "type" of keeping one day served its purpose and is abolished. It only existed to point forward to NOW, when we who ARE in the "Day of the Lord" Are at REST IN CHRIST. (which is everyday of course)... fulfilled at Pentecost and in all who receive the Holy Spirit of Christ.


We are in His Rest. Jesus showed that with the corn with His disciples. He made it clear that it is ok to do righteousness every day. This "Day of the Lord" is eternal. And I am in this awesome rest. A free gift of rest forever!

If you are in "that Day of the Lord", then you are in ultimate rest forever in Christ, as am I.

Act 2:320 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come.


Fulfilled only in Christ. Not by a religious group's own O.T.sabbath day that the Jews were commanded to keep by Moses under the law, which was abolished by the death of Christ on the Christ.. Are you an unrepentant Jew? Are you under the law? Let us sure hope not. That would be the only reason anyone would yoke themselves with elements of that law. Word to the wise...

Phillip,
How to get through to you? Christ was not following Jewish tradition during His Priesthood, as the Son of God He fulfilled the will of the Father. Why did Paul have gentiles in his Sabbath services in the Synagog? They even returned the next week for more teaching on the Sabbath Day. Why did Christ and Paul both celebrate all of the Holy Days of God, if they were done away with at the cross? There was nothing done away with at the cross, as the words of Christ clearly say.
Matt 5:17-18
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
KJV
Do you call Him a liar? If He did not destroy the law, but fulfilled it then it is still enforce, with the exceptions noted by Him. Circumcision is of the heart not of the flesh and the sacrifices were fulfilled by His blood. No testimony stating that we are not to celebrate Passover, Days of Unleaven Bread, Pentacost, Attonement, Feast of Tabernacles. He died on Passover and is our Passover. Remember the blood placed on the lentiles of the houses when the destroying angel came over Egypt. That kept those in the house safe from the angel of death? I realize that it is hard for most to accept that you have been lied to most of your life, but if you actually read scriptures and question what you are being told is according to scripture the difference is of singificence. That is why in Revelation some of the Churches were commended for comparing scripture with the sermons to make sure that the sermons were according to scripture.I was not always a Sabbath Keeper, I had to make the change. I questioned the Sabbath and found that there was no place in scripture where it was done away with or changed, so I changed to aline with scripture.

Yes Christ fulfilled the law. That is how it was abolished and is no longer in force. All Christians know this. A no brainer.

(Eph 2:15) having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; that he might create in himself of the twain one new man, so making peace;

No, Christ doesn't lie. Only men lie. Let God be true. I only speak His Word and I advise you not to go mixing and matching a dead law in with Christ. It doesn't work. Remember the New wine in old wineskins parable? a word to the wise...



What is amazing to me, is that some people only worship on certain days of the week rather than every minute of every day. I would never "join" a organization that says such appalling and unscriptural things as "worship on one day of the week". Especially a Church that purports to be "Christian", when it is in fact adopting dead Jewish traditions (sabbath day, unclean meats, etc) that have nothing to do with non Jews.
Rom 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment.

...so why do so many worship on Sunday, the first day of the week?

Regardless of what day they opt to worship, they evidently don't Love Jesus enough to worship Him every day of the week.

Which purpose WAS achieved at the cross, for true Christians. That is how it was abolished.
ABOLISHED

(2Co 3:11) For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
(2Co 3:12) Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
(2Co 3:13) And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:
(2Co 3:14) But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
(2Co 3:15) But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.

A question.

If you believe that the scripture teaches that the NT Sabbath is Sunday and that is why we meet on that day and not Saturday, and at the same time teach that we are in a time of permanent sabbath rest so that means every day, why is it that you don't meet every day to worship the Lord?

A question.

If the NT church met on Sunday, why did Constantine decree that the day of rest was Sunday, not Saturday?

A question.

Bearing in mind that the NT church was a Jewish church and they worked six days a week with their day off being Saturday and Sunday a normal work day, how could they meet for a meeting during the day as they did on Saturday, on Sunday?

A question

As the NT church only had the OT, where did they get the idea of meeting on a Sunday?

Very good questions Marksman, maybe you will get a response.

Jiggyfly,
We are to celebrate the Sabbath as it was done from the beginning. The only change is the sacrifices have been fulfilled by Christ. It is necessary to understand that God never changes nor do His words, given to us from the beginning. In Genesis He gave us the sun and moon in order for us to be able to calculate when to celebrate His Holy Days. Genesis 1:14 and since there is no scripture nullifying His Sabbath only Catholic doctrine, which does not count, then the original commandment for us to worship on the seventh day is still in force.
humble servant of the Lord God Most High
Can you elaborate how the sabbath was kept in the beginning?
