1 | 4th commandment has been done away? | Ps 111:7 | GraceResting | 57706 | ||
Colossians 2:14 says that Christ cancelled the written code, having nailed it to the cross. In Hebrews 7:17-22, the author states that Christ, as High Priest of the New Covenant, set aside the old because it was weak and useless. It was given to the Jews by God to demonstrate humanity's inability to live according to rules. Now he has written the true law of God on our hearts and minds! In Matt. 5:17, jesus said that HE had come to fulfill the law and the Prophets, so when He said, "It is finished!", He meant that fulfillment had come! In Hebrews 1, Jesus is said to be better than, creation, angels and prophets. Do you want to live under the condemnation of the old covenant or in the victory and peace of the new where we can come to God with confidence at His throne, the throne of grace! Besides, Christians have been breaking the Sabbath every week for almost 2000 years! The Sabbath is from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday! And james is talking about someone trying to go back under the law. The question is not IF we have broken the Law but have we EVER kept it! |

Graceresting, I thank you for sharing your your ideas. It's great though I want you to see respectHim answer, it might make a difference for you. On the other hand, it's not safe to just generalize Christians breaking the Sabbath, Our Adventist friends do keep the Sabbath from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset. And its not amazing to know that there are those who really keep it, the Bible tells us Revelation 14:12 says "This calls for patient and endurance on the part of the saint who obey God's commandments and remain faithful to Jesus." God Bless! |
