The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

[Cooper]

The Bible was written by God ... FOR all those who would obey His Commandments and follow His (Jesus') Ways.

Goodness gracious!

The doctrine of most of you naysayers is so foul and unholy it's hard to believe.

Then read the New Testament and pray for a Damascus Road experience.

Do you even know that the New Testament is only 20% of the entire Bible? 1/5th of the book.

Can you honestly convince yourself that God wrote a book that He expected Christians to completely toss out 80% of?

Does that make any sense at all?

The New Testament is not only impossible to understand, but wouldn't even exist, without the OT.

Are you aware of all the verses where Jesus claims that He is the Father; or the verses where He tells His disciples of all the events from the OT that He was personally responsible for? Luke 24:27

Modern Christians are woefully uneducated on scripture due largely to the lack of OT teaching/preaching by modern churches.

Hosea 4:6

And Paul was a Keeper of the 10 Commandments long after the Damascus Road experience.

Acts 13:42
Acts 21:24

SDA’s remain on the old covenant plantation of law by mixing the old and new covenants together creating a hybrid gospel of “salvation by grace plus law, faith plus works.” (Galatians 1:6-9)

Ohhh, the mailman.

What have you got for us today, dan?

Did the disciples of Christ mix the covenants when they observed the Sabbath Commandment immediately after Christ's death?

Did Paul, the writer of a majority of the NT, mix the covenants by keeping all the Law long after his conversion?

Did Barnabas mix the covenants when he observed the Sabbath?

The New Covenant is simply the writing of the 10 Commandments upon fleshly hearts as opposed to the stone of the Old Covenant.

Are we to mix the covenants when we live just as Jesus lived?

Did Jesus mix the covenants?

All 6 appearances of Jesus happen on two Sundays, none on Sabbath. Mk 16:9; Mt 28:5-9; Lk 24:34; Lk 24:13-15; Lk 24:33,36+Jn 20:19; Jn 20:26

Christians assembled three times on Sunday after the resurrection and before the ascension, never on the Sabbath. Jn 20:19 Jn 20:26 Acts 2:1

The only time Christians assembled together was on a Sunday in Acts 20:7, never does it say the disciples assembled on the Sabbath.

The only day ever mentioned when Christians broke bread was on Sunday: Acts 20:7

Christians are commanded every Sunday to give into a common treasury of the church: 1 Cor 16:1-2

Jesus was declared the Son of God on Sunday: Rom 1:4

Ps 2:7 “Today I have begotten thee” was fulfilled on Sunday when he rose: Acts 13:33

The sign that Jesus was glorified was given on Sunday: Jn 7:39+Acts 2:1,32

The church officially began on Pentecost Sunday: Acts 2:1

Jesus was crowned king on a Sunday: Acts 2:33-36

The disciple's reception of the promise of the Father on Sunday: Acts 1:4-5; 2:1-4

The Holy Spirit first fell upon the apostles on a Sunday: Acts 2:1-4

Salvation first preached by Peter on Sunday: Mt 16:19; Acts 2:1,38,40-41

The Keys to the Kingdom of God were first used on Sunday: Mt 16:19

The great “Triumphal entry” (also called “Palm Sunday”) happened on the first day: Luke 13:32

The time between the Lord’s resurrection (sheaf waving day) and Pentecost was Sunday to Sunday counting 50 days. The starting and stopping time was on the 1st day.

The first time Jesus worshipped after the resurrection was on the first day, by Thomas (Jn. 20:26).

The first time we could be born again to a living hope was on a Sunday: 1 Pet. 1:3

The first time Jesus had communion, after his resurrection with His disciples, was on a Sunday: (Lk. 24:1, 13, 28-35)

 

[Cooper]

The first time Jesus had communion, after his resurrection with His disciples, was on a Sunday: (Lk. 24:1, 13, 28-35)

"The first day of the week is the day after the Sabbath, or Seventh Day, and is therefore the Eighth Day. Indeed, as the number Seven is the Sabbatical number, or number of Rest, in Holy Scripture, so Eight is the Dominical. Seven is expressive of rest in Christ; Eight is expressive of Resurrection to new life and glory in Him. In accordance with this principle, the Eighth Day was the Day of Circumcision (cp. Luk_1:59, Php_3:5),—the type of Christian Baptism,—the Sacrament of Resurrection,—in which we rise from the death of sin to newness of Life in Him. Our Lord received the name Jesus on the eighth day (Luk_2:21); He as our Jesus, Joshua, Saviour, brings us to the heavenly Canaan,—to the glory of the Resurrection. The Name Jesus, Saviour, given to Him on the Eighth Day, makes in the universal language (Greek) the number eight in hundreds, tens, and units,—888, The great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles—the type of His Incarnation—was the Eighth (Joh_7:37). And in His Sermon on the Mount He pronounces eight Beatitudes describing the way that leads to the fruition of heavenly glory. Hence we also find, that the Transfiguration—which was a figure and a glimpse of the future glory of the bodies of the Saints after the Resurrection—is mentioned as having taken place eight days after our Lord had said, "There be some standing here which shall not taste of death till they see the kingdom of God" (Luk_9:27)" (Wordsworth, Greek Testament, vol. 1, p. 252). **Act_20:7 note. **1Co_16:2, Rev_1:10.

Dominical
Of or pertaining to Jesus Christ as Lord. Pertaining to the Lord's Day, Sunday. Pertaining to the dominical letter, an ancient system for determining Sundays (particularly Easter Sunday) in any given year. (Webster's 1913 Dictionary)

Dominical letter
the letter which, in almanacs, denotes Sunday, or the Lord's day (dies Domini). The first seven letters of the alphabet are used for this purpose, the same letter standing for Sunday during a whole year (except in leap year, when the letter is changed at the end of February). After twenty-eight years the same letters return in the same order. The dominical letters go backwards one day every common year, and two every leap year; e. g., if the dominical letter of a common year be G, F will be the dominical letter for the next year. Called also Sunday letter. Cf. Solar cycle, under Cycle, n.

n. The Lord's day or Sunday; also, the Lord's prayer.

[BarneyFife]

Pentecost was a Sunday – Sunday duration of 50 days. The starting point and stopping point of counting the 50 days was a Sunday – Sunday period!

While the Sabbath was significant to the Jews, there is no New Testament significance of the Sabbath in connection with anything of Christ, Christianity, the church or heaven!

A. Before Pentecost Christians met on Sunday:

1. The day Jesus was raised: Jn 20:19

2. The very next Sunday: Jn 20:26

3. On the day of Pentecost: Acts 2:1

B. After Pentecost Christians met on Sunday:

1. To partake of the Lord’s supper or communion: Acts 20:7

2. To give money every Sunday: 1 Cor 16:1,2

C. Biblical significance of Sunday as the Lord’s day:

1. Jesus raised from the dead on Sunday: Mk 16:9; Lk 24:1,13,21

2. Jesus was declared the Son of God on Sunday: Rom 1:4

3. Ps 2:7 “Today I have begotten thee” was fulfilled on Sunday when he rose: Acts 13:33

4. Jesus appeared 6 different times on at least 2 different Sundays:

 

[BarneyFife]

a. Resurrection Sunday:

Mk 16:9 Mary

Mt 28:5-9 Other women

Lk 24:34 Peter (by way of inference)

Lk 24:13-15 Two on Emmaus road

Lk 24:33,36+Jn 20:19 The apostles

b. One Sunday later: Jn 20:26 The apostles

5. The sign of Christ's glorification was on Sunday: Jn 7:39+Acts 2:1,32

6. The church officially began on Pentecost Sunday: Acts 2:1

a. Signified by the reception of the promise of the Father: Acts 1:4-5; 2:1-4

b. Salvation first preached by Peter on Sunday: Mt 16:19; Acts 2:1,38,40-41

7. The 1st day is specifically pointed out in scripture:

a. There is no example of Christians assembling on the Sabbath (7th)

b. No other day is ever specifically mentioned in NT: i.e. “4th day”

8. “Lord’s” is used only 2X in NT: “Lord’s day” & “Lord’s supper” 1 Cor 11:20

a. It makes sense to partake of the Lord’s supper on the Lord’s day.

b. We know the Lord’s supper was partaken of on Sunday.

9. The Holy Spirit first fell upon the disciples on a Sunday: Acts 2:1-4

The Pentecost of Acts 2:1 fell on a Sunday.

I commend you on your expertise in not answering direct questions.



Even if these were all true, they are circumstantial and have nothing to do with the perpetuity of God's (NOT Moses's) moral law.



It's probably just a bunch of stuff you copied and pasted.



Now would you like to answer the question about why you care what the commandment is about since you've made it clear that you believe it's all just obsolete Jewish law, to begin with?

I do not think you should be doing that.
From your posts, not mine, it is clear that Saturday is the day of rest from work, and Sunday is the Lord's Day. So you need to be attending church, tabernacle, synagogue etc on Sunday.

Nope.

All you have to do is rest from labor and honor and revere God. He makes His Commandments pretty simple.

Doing what?

Sunday is not the "Lord's Day." There is only one verse in the Bible that uses this term and it makes no mention of which day of the week it is. There is only one day of the week that is made holy by the LORD and it is the SEVENTH day of the week, which is called "Saturday."

That verse is Revelation 1:10 and it is defined by Isaiah 58:13 speaking specifically of the 7th Day Sabbath.

You and everyone have been saying Saturday is the day of rest from work. So what is Sunday for?

God didn't institute the two-day weekend, silly.

You got my vote but, fact is, the term "Lord's day," verbatim is mentioned once in Scripture. Maybe the Septuagint has something similar, but there you could run into Parousia/"the day of the Lord." I don't know.

 

[BarneyFife]

Work. Just like M-F. Or whatever you want.

The Sabbath is more than a day of rest from work:

Rest in God - Keeping the Sabbath Holy | Sabbath Truth
Is it necessary to go to church on the Sabbath? | Sabbath Truth
What About the Lord's Day? | Sabbath Truth

I was agreeing and supporting your claim. I agree it's only mentioned in Rev. 1:10.
