Jesus Christ did not do away with the Sabbath Day

  "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.

  Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

  But the seventh day is the Sabbath of Yahweh 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:

  For in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yahweh blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it."

(Exodus 20:8-11)

 

     There has been a doctrinal proclamation issued by church denominationalism which supposes that we do not any longer need to honor the Sabbath Day of Rest (The 4th Commandment) because it has been fulfilled by Christ and has now been done away by the New Testament.  As this relates to the present national state of America, there could not arise a more untimely and detrimental doctrine.  Christian America has its backs to the wall at the hand of state atheism in the very land our forefathers settled.  Yet The Almighty gives us the answer for coming out from under the socialist yoke put upon us --- "Ye shall keep my Sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am Yahweh. If ye walk In my statutes , and keep my commandments, and do them --- ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword --- for I will have respect for you ---" (Lev.26:2,3,7,9)   Do we grasp the enormity of that divine statement???  Beyond Yahweh taking note of our respect for Him, the All Holy and All Powerful Creator of everything in existence said that HE would respect US --- if we would but keep His Sabbaths and commandments. That is an amazing statement!  Yet with one sweeping stroke of the pulpit hand, "Jewdao Christian" American preachers have forsaken our national salvation by ignoring Yahweh's Sabbaths for our victory over our antichrist  captors.

     The mistaken points of thought which teach that the Sabbath day is no longer to be honored or observed can be summarized as follows:  [It is reasoned that since the word "Sabbath" means "cease/rest" and not specifically "to worship", that we can worship God at any time and in any place, so we don't really need to gather together on a Sabbath.  Since the Old Testament says that the Sabbath was a "sign" to teach us that God is our salvation and our rest, the Sabbath was just a shadow of the real rest who is Jesus Christ. Therefore since Christ has arrived, we now have done away with the "sign" and honor the real Sabbath (Christ's fulfillment of it) every day by our Christian belief.   Colossians 2: 16,17 instructs us "Let no man judge you in --- respect of an holy day, --- or of the Sabbath days: which are a shadow of things to come ---".  Thus, we do not need to celebrate the Holy Days of Yahweh listed in the Old Testament, nor honor the Sabbaths, and if we do we are fallen from grace and are trying to seek salvation by works of the law.]

     This anti-Sabbath teaching basically finds its roots within two fallacies. First, that the Bible is two books (Old and New Testaments) written to two distinct groups of people (Jews and Gentiles).  Second, that Christ fulfilled the Law for the purpose of doing away with that divine law. The Bible tells us that both of these views are completely wrong.  Needless to say, those of you who have been with the Israel Kingdom message for even a short while have become aware of the reality that the people calling themselves "Jews" today have neither a physical bloodline descent nor a spiritual connection with the Israelites of Bible days.  Today's "Jews" are not Israel.  Both the Bible and history clearly teach that Caucasian Christian Saxons (I-saacs-sons, the sons of Isaac) are the Israelites of the Bible ,but that our people have forgotten who they are as part of God's punishment upon Israel (us) for our disobedience against Him.  Furthermore, the Bible is specifically one book (not two) merely written at an "older time" and a relatively "newer time". As such, the Old Testament is about Israel while the New Testament is still to the same people --- Yahweh's Israel, His covenant people who are now called "Christians".  According to Yahweh's promise in Isaiah 62:2, Israel would receive a new name in the latter days --- the name of their Savior, the Christ. Yahshua (Jesus) made this clear when He emphatically said, "I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the House of Israel." (Mat.15:24)  This mission has never been changed by Him although the churches have done their best to make a world wide religion out of the Gospel which was given only to Israel. (write for more on this if it is new to you, as the evidence of this truth is so overwhelming in amount of text from both the Bible and history that we can't stop to cover the enormity of it right here)

         As for Christ "doing away with the law" because He "fulfilled it", this is hardly the case.  "Fulfilled" does not mean "done away with" as some teach.  The verse usually cited is Matthew 5:17 where Jesus says, "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill".  If "fulfill" means "to do away with", the total absurdity of Christ's supposed statement would be "I didn't come to destroy the law, just to do away with it".  Simply because Christ fulfilled all that was written by the prophets concerning the circumstances of proof of the Messiah's arrival, does not mean He would do away with God's laws.  If so, we would all now be free to murder, steal, lie, cheat, etc. Our Savior plainly said that He did not come to destroy the law and in verse 19 of this very same chapter He tells us, "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."   The only part of the law that has been done away with since Christ arrived is the animal sacrifices of shed blood on the old altar.  The Old Testament animal sacrifices were temporary ordinances symbolic of the Lamb of God (Jesus) who would come according to Yahweh's promises, and die on the bloody cross as atonement for our sins. (Heb.9: 11-28). Since the time of the Cross of our Messiah we have clear instruction from the Bible that the animal sacrifice has now ended.  However, all the other laws of commandments, statutes, and judgments for the family and nation are still in effect, including all of the Ten Commandments (Rom.3:31). Our Master Jesus beckons us, "If you love me, keep my commandments." (Jn.14:15)  

     We can apply this same established understanding to the Sabbath issue.  Just because the Bible teaches that Christ is indeed our eternal rest into life everlasting, it does not mean that honoring the 4th Commandment Sabbath Rest of one in seven days has been nullified.  If anything, the opposite is true. We now even more realize the importance of our rest in Christ and testify to it by our action of loving to honor the Sabbath to show our faith. "Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works , and I will shew thee my faith by my works." (James 2:18)  As baptism is a sign that shows our inner true faith, so is the Sabbath a sign showing that we are loyal to the crown of our King, Yahshua (Jesus) the Christ. It is a sign most reverently held by those of Saxon Christendom blessed with the revelation that we are physical Israel.  It is also a reciprocal sign of the same on the part of Yahweh Almighty.  "Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant." ( Exodus 31:16)   "Perpetual" means everlasting and it is still in effect today!  If a person is an obedient Israelite, then he/she has it in their heart to keep the Sabbath until the far end of the ages, when the Only Begotten Son delivers up the Kingdom to the Father and time as we know it is not applicable any longer. (I Cor.15:24; Eph.2:7)  If a Saxon Christian does not know that he or she is an Israelite then they are susceptible to the chicanery of the Jewdao preacher who tells them that "the Old Testament is just an obsolete book to the Jews, who were stuck under the yoke of the Sabbath."  Let's review a clear perspective of the Sabbath issue correcting, with help from the Bible, the contentious attempt to nullify one of Yahweh's Ten Commandments, namely, that of obeying the fourth commandment, "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy." (Ex.20:8)

        Colossians 2:16 & 17 reads,  "Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon (note: literally "new month") , or of the Sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body  is  of Christ." (KJV)

     This letter from the Apostle Paul to the church (Ecclesia) at Colossae is repeatedly used by antiSabbath promoters to supposedly "prove" that we don't have to honor Yahweh's Sabbath day or His seven Holy Feast Days, and that judging anyone for violating the Sabbath is unbiblical and unchristian.  Basically the assumption surrounding this verse is that the Sabbath Day was a rest required in the Old Testament and it was only a menial shadow of the real rest who is Christ. On the surface this concept is launched with a cloak of semi-truth, as Christ indeed is our rest (Mat.11:28), but the final conclusion to void the Sabbath is twisted beyond Scriptural authority. Some liberal renderings of new Bibles (which are not even actual translations)  quote this verse as "the substance of the shadow (Sabbath) is Christ".  Such renderings smack of ecumenical councils of men doctoring verses to promote their pet opinions .  These verses in Colossians, instead of being the banner against keeping the Sabbath claimed by some, are in reality some of the strongest statements in the New Testament proving the opposite --- that 1st century Christians were most assuredly honoring the Sabbath well after Christ's crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension.

      An overview of what was happening in the city of Colossae will help us understand what Paul was really telling the believers when he wrote to them concerning this issue.  Colossae was a city in Asia Minor on a well traveled trade route and as such became a center of philosophical asceticism and Talmudic Judaism.  The Christian gathering there was under a lot of religious pressure by way of heated debate and heathen influence.  On the one hand there were early Gnostics teaching doctrines that we still find on our "New Age" book shelves, while on the other hand  there were assemblies of Jews practicing an adulterated religion of altar sacrifice, Torah Holy Days, and Babylonian superstitions.

     The Westminster Dictionary of the Bible , 1944 ed., pg. 114 is quoted concerning  Colossae as, "The reports of Epaphras (Paul's friend) has shown that the Colossian Christians were threatened by false teachers, who seemed to have combined ritualistic, ascetic, and speculative tendencies."  This flock was being seduced away from the faith by non believers speaking enticing words, philosophy, vain deceit, and traditions of Jewish men trusting in circumcision and rites (Col.2:4,8,11).   In 2:14 Paul makes a point to remind the assembly that the altar ordinances (animal sacrifices, Heb. Ch. 9 & 10) were nailed to the cross; that is, not ALL the laws, but the bloody ordinances. That being the case, there would be no more need for altar sacrifices  on Feast Days or Sabbaths.  These Sabbaths are perpetual memorial days to which altar sacrifices laws were added because of sin. (Gal. 3:19)  The purpose of the memorial days themselves is separate from the old sin offerings performed on those days. These holy memorial days were not solely sacrifice days.   "Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a Sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation." (Leviticus 23:24)     "And this day (Passover) shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to Yahweh throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by statute for ever." ( Exodus 12:14)

     The city religious fervor in Colossae was that of a heathen ascetic religion of severity based on self denial and salvation by formal rites.  As this crept into the assembly of the flock, Paul  was quick to advise this group of Christians about how to deal with those who were bringing ritualistic tendencies and vain philosophies into the Sabbaths and Feast Day memorials WHICH THESE CHRISTIANS WERE OBSERVING!!  Paul retorts:

    " Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon (month), or of the Sabbath days:  Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ." (Col.2:16,17)

    However there are two glaring and obvious errors in the translation of these verses, inserted into our Bibles by those who would deny the obedience of following the Laws of our heavenly Father. 

    First, the word "respect" in verse 16 is the Greek word MEROS (see Strong's # 3313) meaning  "a part, any particular, to some degree".  Promoters of the metropolitan Colossian Jewish and ascetic influence were trying to dictate "particulars" of the Sabbath memorial days which were being honored by the Christian assembly. Paul's response when he heard of this? To paraphrase, he said, "Don't let any (Colossian city) man judge what you are doing on these Sabbath days as to the particulars about rites or other practice --- I'm telling you that the altar sacrifices were ended at the cross."  The Concordant Literal New Testament, page 470 clarifies the verse which reads "respect of an holyday" to have been literally  written by Paul as "in the particulars of a festival". 

 

     Secondly, the word "is" in the last part of verse 17 (above) was not in the original Greek manuscript texts.  In the King James Version please notice that "is" is in italics which means it was added by the translators of that English Bible.  It makes all the difference in the world as to the correct meaning.  Anti-sabbath people even take an extended liberty saying that this should read the "the Sabbath was a shadow but Christ Himself is the substance", which surely confuses the specific intent of Paul's message here, (even though  all believers automatically know Christ is our salvation rest).     With the verb "is" properly removed to correct the blatant error of this verse, we clearly realize what Paul is teaching, as it is now in context with the rest of the chapter and makes complete sense.  Greek manuscripts substantiate this truth. Paul tells the Colossian Christians to not let any mere man of the city  attempt to enter the fold and judge what will transpire on the Sabbaths and Feast Days, but the believing "body of Christ" itself must makes these decisions (judgments)!  What is the body of Christ in an assembly?  We know from I Corinthians 12:27, "Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually."

       Colossians 2:16 & 17 correctly reads from a literal Greek perspective into our English comprehension:  "Let no 'common city' man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in the particulars of an holyday, or of the new month , or of the Sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the true body of Christ (knows how to honor those days)"

     Yes brothers and sisters, the Colossian Christian assembly was most definitely celebrating the Sabbaths and Feast Day as were ALL New Testament Christians.  The apostle Paul certainly knew about it, and he took the time and effort to tell them to never let these days become adulterated by unchristian doctrine!!  Nowhere in this chapter does Paul ever hint that the Sabbath was supposedly "done away with" by Christ's arrival. To assume so is mere speculation, which we have absolutely no authority to stretch from the Scriptures.  The viable reference in Colossians 2:17 (above) to the Sabbath day being a shadow of salvation, and in Hebrews chapter 4 of a Sabbath remaining in Christ's eternal rest, is by way of comparing the two rests (Sabbath & Salvation), never in destroying the fourth commandment of keeping the Sabbath, or it would have specifically stated so as is unambiguously stated about the altar sacrifices (now past).    It is not stated in either of those chapters that the Sabbath is now void, but only a comparison between the physical Sabbath and the spiritual Sabbath rest in Christ is drawn.  Comparing two things does not entail a destruction of one of them.  The "weekly" Sabbath depicts the millennium reign of Christ at the end of the age, and the memorial Feast Days collectively all tell the story of our redemption.  We are commanded to celebrate these as a testimony to the lasting salvation given to us by our Kinsman Redeemer.  Where would America be right now if every generation arising in our land willingly and lovingly obeyed Yahweh and honored the glorious Feast Days where our children would learn our Biblical heritage as told by these memorials? As it turns out, Colossians 2:16&17 is a strong and convincing part of the New Testament which proves that those Christians knew they were Israel and that the Sabbath day was refreshed and never destroyed by the New Covenant in Jesus Christ.

 

   Our Savior observed the Sabbath as He walked the Earth, and He said that His believers would continue with Sabbath keeping after He left.  Jesus gave us His clear support for observing the Sabbath and told us how to honor it with a more sincere heart than the Pharisees --- "that it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."  Helping friends in an emergency, or aiding them in their illness are acceptable works on the Sabbath day. (Lk.14:3-5; 13:16;6:9;Mat.12:11;Mk.2:27)  He also taught the Word in Galilee on the Sabbath.  " But He passing through the midst of them went His way, And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the Sabbath days.  And they were astonished at His doctrine: for His word was with power." (Lk.4:30,31)  Jesus was the ultimate example of how to "walk the walk" of the Sabbath not just "talk the talk".  There is no doubt that He kept the Sabbath while He was on Earth.  Decades after Jesus had gone to the heavenly dimension, in 90 AD the Apostle John wrote in his first epistle I Jn.2:6 "He that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked".  This is a New Testament command!  Jesus was our example of how to live and what to do.  The Bible says that we are to follow the footsteps of our Master.  Our Master honored the Sabbath day.

     Jesus expected His followers to be observing the Sabbath in the future tense (after He was gone) as is clear from His warning about tribulation. "But pray that your flight be not in winter, neither on the Sabbath Day." (Mat.24:20)  Additionally, we have the promise of prophecy from the book of Isaiah that during the future reign of Christ the Sabbath will still be observed.   "For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith Yahweh, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new month to another, and from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith Yahweh"(Isa.66:22,23)    No, Christ never did come "to do away with the Sabbath" as some claim, for He will demand  observance of it in His Kingdom.  So we see that the Bible teaches that the Sabbath was kept in Old Testament times, New Testament times, and will be kept in the future Kingdom --- yet certain men tell us that we should not keep it now.  Such is not sound doctrine.

      Another illogical deduction used by the Sabbath violators is that supposedly the Sabbath is so little spoken of in the New Testament that it proves Christ did away with it.  This reasoning is in error from the outset as we have seen from our study so far that the Sabbath is most certainly mentioned in the New Testament.  In any event, let's assume for the sake of argument that it is not.  Can something be proven from a negative, that is, from a silence about a matter?  Absolutely not!  For instance, we could not declare that Jesus rode a Harley motorcycle just because it is not mentioned in the New Testament.  If some think that the Sabbath is not mentioned enough in the New Testament they are reading the book from a biased position of not wanting to admit an error of denominationalism, or from not taking time to reference the Greek texts on the matter.

    For example, we have all heard the phrase "the new church met on the first day of the week."  Then it is taught that this is Sunday which is now the "new day of rest".  But, once again,  this was a non existent Bible phrase until fabricated by denominational translators of English Bibles.  Acts 20:7 reads, " And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight."  The words "first day of the week" never did appear in the New Testament.  That Scripture phrase in the 1st century Greek is "mee-ah sabbaton", literally "on one of the Sabbaths".  Please check Strong's Concordance at #'s 3391 & 4521, or note the following literal translation of Acts 20:7 from The Concordant Literal New Testament at page 336. "Now on one of the Sabbaths, at our having gathered to break bread, Paul argued with them, being about to be off tomorrow. Besides he prolonged the word unto midnight."  Yet another reference of the apostles keeping the Sabbath is in Acts 13:44 "And the next Sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God" Preachers quote Mt.28:1; Mk.16:2; Lk.24:1; Jn.20:1; Acts 20:7; & ICor.16:2 as reference to support the Roman Catholic "the first day of the week/Sunday" theory, yet NOT ONCE do any of these verses say it.  In the book of Daniel, the fourth beast of that prophet's vision is symbolic for the Roman Empire ("EXCEEDING DREADFUL" 7:19).  In Dan.7:25 this Roman Beast is guilty of changing Yahweh's "times and laws" to increase it's Earthly power.  The Papal decree of Sunday Sabbath/Rest robbed our ancestors of the divine national and family Sabbath for centuries world wide.  The Bible makes it clear that this forced day of Sunday worship is THE MARK OF THE BEAST (see my Sabbath Lesson Manual & tapes for details on this) by which western civilization could not buy, sell, or exist without participating in.  For nearly 1000 years in Europe, under the dictates of Rome, if a person did not attend compulsory Catholic Mass on Sunday they were excommunicated from the church and ostracized from the economic community!  In other words, there was no life for those refusing to take the "mark" of the Holy Roman Empire and it's Sunday Mass Day of Rest. 

     Jesus told us that "He is master of the Sabbath" and that "the Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath" (Mat.2:28; Mk.2:27) and that He "did not come to destroy the law." (Jn.5:17)   All things were made by Him and for Him (Col.1:16) and He has given man the Sabbath to sooth and refresh our souls as we work, and as a reminder of our very creation and salvation we have in Him. 

    There is also the belief that the New Testament doesn't recognize the Sabbath because of what Paul says in Romans 14:5&6  "One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.  He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto Yahweh."   A hasty conclusion is drawn that Paul is saying "It doesn't matter about the Sabbath any longer and we can each decide on any day for regarding Yahweh."  This is not what Paul is teaching.  He is giving instruction on how to handle new believers who are babes in Christ and have just left their former pagan religions. These folk are still "weak in the faith" and by rashly judging their doubts we can be a stumbling block. (see verses 1-4,15).  Coming out of pagan religions where all manner of holidays are engrained in the mind takes some time.  A Christian has to grow into the strong faith.  Any of Yahweh's days that are to be observed must be "regarded unto Yahweh", and that means by faith in the heart as persuaded by the Holy Spirit unto the renewing of the mind. (Rom.12:2)  If a "person weak in the faith" is forced to observe a day to Yahweh because they are pressured by other believers to do so, then that observance is for the wrong reason!  The person must be "fully persuaded in his own mind" of the love of regarding a day to Yahweh.  Look at the last verse (23) in this chapter and you will see that Paul explains that "whatsoever is not of faith is sin."  Not only should the true Bible Holy Days be regarded unto Yahweh and the pagan days not regarded unto Yahweh, they must be sincerely regarded or disregarded for the correct motives --- that is, faith and love in obeying Yahweh and comprehending what the Sabbath and Feast Days mean.  This takes time, and Paul is advising those more mature in the faith to be patient and understanding toward those still weak in the faith by not judging them harshly as they work out their doubts.

     Likewise, for those who were more versed in the faith yet desired to revert back to pagan days such as Christmas and Easter after knowing better, Paul instructs on that as well.   This is where we read the comment by Paul " Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.  I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain". (Gal. 4:10,11)  This was not pointing to Yahweh's Holy Sabbaths, but it was a warning about  Roman, Greek, or other pagan days/times and services to false gods which times were held by those when they were yet previously in unbelief. (see v. 8 "Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods." also Acts 17:29;Rom.1:23)  Paul was never "afraid" that the true believer was observing the correct Sabbath and Feasts Days of Yahweh, since he instructed Christians on how to correctly celebrate those days!

      Another Biblical proof that we must keep the Sabbath is that it is not our day to disavow in the first place.  It is Yahweh's day which He Himself has made holy.  "And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it" (Gen.2:3)  Sanctified means "to separate it and make it holy".  The 4th commandment doesn't tell us "Make the Sabbath day a  holy day", but it tells us "TO KEEP IT HOLY"!  YAHWEH GOD HAD ALREADY MADE IT HOLY JUST AFTER CREATION!! Man doesn't make it holy by honoring it.  The Sabbath was already holy before man existed and we didn't have anything to do with it!  The Sabbath was in effect long before the law for the nation of Israel was given to Moses at Mt. Sinai.    The Sabbath is repeatedly called Yahweh's day, a day that belongs to Him.  Why is the Sabbath day holy?  Because only Yahweh is holy and His very presence is connected to the everlasting Sabbath covenant. "Ye shall keep my Sabbaths ---- and keep my commandments, and do them --- and I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people."  (Lev.26:2,3,12)    "Who shall not fear thee, O Yahweh, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy:"  (Revelation 15:4) 

     Yahweh owns the Sabbath day for it is "a Sabbath unto Yahweh"(Ex.16:25) making Him creator and master of the Sabbath. "But the seventh day is the Sabbath of Yahweh thy God" (Ex.20:10). "Verily MY Sabbaths ye shall keep" (Ex.31:13).  Do we now want to tell Yahweh that we have decided to not honor His day, the seventh day, the only day of the week He has claimed as being holy and belonging to Him?    "Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the Sabbath of rest, holy to Yahweh: whosoever doeth any work in the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death." (Ex.31:15) 

     Rebellious Israelites that are Sabbath violators live under a curse.   "But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and my Sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them. --- Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my Sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols --- "I am Yahweh your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and HALLOW MY SABBATHS; and they shall be a sign between me and you , that ye may know that I am Yahweh thy God. Notwithstanding the children of Israel rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which if a man do he shall even live in them; they polluted my SABBATHS: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them ---" (Ezek.20:13-16;19-21).

 

     Let's not make the grave mistake to think that Yahweh has today changed His mind about these everlasting laws. The Ten Commandments, all of them, are eternal  concepts which proceeded forth from our non changing God, and they apply today just as they did thousands of years ago.  "For I am Yahweh, I change not.." (Malachi 3:6)   "All his commandments are sure. They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness" (Psalm 111:7-8).  "Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments" (Psalm 119:21).

    Just who are these in our nation who dare to challenge the sovereignty of our King by having the gall to do away with HIS DAY, thus bringing the curses of the Bible upon America?   May the remnant in Christ stand firm in loving to honor what Yahweh God has made holy... the keeping of His special day for our blessing from Him!
