1 | Must Christians keep the Sabbath today? | Ex 20:8 | waynesanderson | 14964 | ||
The problem is clarity of the question. Is it for gentile or for jewish beleivers. Is it for both. The answer is found in whether we r talking about a "must do law" or "a faith do grace". Whether u keep shabbot or don't; do so in faith. The same can be said of tithing. Do so as your faith and G-d's grace encourages, allows, "calls for". The resounding message to the jew is; don't throw the baby out with the bath water. The baby being Jesus (Yeshua HaMashiach). Some (not all) jews that were "in power" back then, wrongly judged Him and were blinded for a higher purpose. Remember, the higher purpose was for the jew, and has been bequeathed upon the gentile, until the "alloted time" is completed. The same "saying" applies to the gentile believer, don't throw out the baby with the bath water; baby being, a wonderful blessing, that can be as precious a part of your faith as tithing, or daily devotionals. All these including sabbath (or shabbat), are worthless, unless done in faith and grace to enhance the relationship we have "with Him", "through Him", and "to Him". Him being none other than Yeshua (Jesus),,,, of course. From a Jewish believer to you my friends and precious siblings; Shabbot shalom! |

Thank you, Nolan, for the kind welcome and encouragement. In G-d's timing (though it seems far too long to me) there is finally a place for a jew who believes. Though perhaps only but words, I find more and more love and acceptance in the body of believers by those beginning to understand this term; "Messianic Jew". G-d's grace and peace to us all who have found hope, grace, and peace in Him, Jesus. I am not ashamed! I like to say it often as possible, so please indulge me as I say so here: "Baruch haba bashem Adonai, Yeshua Ha Mashiach" Meaning, blessed is He who comes in the name of the L-rd, Jesus Christ. See Matthew 23:39 for it's deeper, even prophetic meaning. But it wont be fullfilled until the "set" time, so don't get anxious on me folks, right? Be patient with us Jews. His peace always, Wayne |
