1 | Do we play or pray? | Col 2:16 | There | 25947 | ||
I don't believe any of the ten commandments are "out". I just think we need to be able to look at the 4th commandment from the Lord's perspective. (Just like the 6th and 7th (Matt. 5:21-30), and all the others.) God's understanding of His laws have never changed... only man's understanding has changed because of more in depth teaching. Yet I do not think the 4th commandment says we are to sabbath on Saturday. The Hebrews kept the sabbath on Saturday because they understood the 4th commandment to tell them to do so. Yet I think God's intention (and I said "think") was not that they keep the Sabbath on Saturday, but that they rested every 7th day. God knew man needed physical rest and a time to rest in Him - spiritual rejuvenation -- at least once a week. Here's a bit of Jewish tradition based on their historical accounts. The Ten Commandments were given to Moses on a Sunday -- the same Sunday as Pentecost. The first time God wrote His law on stone (the first time before Moses threw them down and broke them), and the second time (Pentecost) He began writing His law on hearts. If the law was given to the Hebrews on Sunday, would the following Sunday be the 7th day that God was referring to in the 4th commandment?? It is a possibility. Did it matter to God which day they kept... as long as they kept every 7th day?? Again, I don't think so. The 4th commandment basically says to do our customary work for six days and then rest the 7th. I think when the command states "but the 7th is the Sabbath of the Lord"... God is stating that He was making it for man... but it was God doing the making and it was therefore God's Sabbath. He owns it, but he made it for man. And God used the example of creation to show man what He meant. Work six days, rest one. I think it's possible that the millennial Sabbath will be on the Lord's day, just as it is now. |

Unfortunately, for some it will be too late and others will refuse to admit that they could possibly be wronmg all because of the strong stands they have taken previously. | ||||||
