1 | Lord of the Sabbath is he not | Bible general Archive 1 | Reformer Joe | 42968 | ||
As you say, Jesus broke TRADITION, but did he break the LAW of God by what he did on the Sabbath? There is a difference, in that tradition may or may not be consistent with the law of God. The biggest problem I have with "abolishing the Sabbath" mentality is that we are then saying that the Sabbath was not part of the changeless moral law of God. If the Ten Commandments are a summary of the moral will of God, why would he change his mind about one of them (and only one, for that matter)? Here are a few well-articulated, yet opposing views on the Fourth Commandment and the Christian: http://capo.org/sermons/Luke4.html http://web2.airmail.net/billtod/ch10.txt http://www.gty.org/Curiosity_Shop/sabbath.htm --Joe! |

joe- Something mulling in my mind....Could it be that the first two commandments deal with our relationship with the Lord and the last 7 deal with relationship with others. But the one about the Sabbath was made for us - pre-Christ when sacrifices had to be made regularly? The ultimate sacrifice was made when Christ died, therefore, a specific day is not needed anymore. Only a time to meet regularly for mutual edification in the Lord. Paul says we are not to be observers of days and festivals. I think this is the only time a commandment was contradicted. Debbie |
