Exodus 20 does NOT say to observe *a* day of rest or sabbath. What it says is: NASB Exodus 20:8 "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy." NOTE: "THE sabbath", not "A sabbath." Exodus 20 does not say "that can be any day as long as it is once every seven days." What it says is: NASB Ex 20: (9) Six days you shall labor and do all your work, (10) but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God;... (11) For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and made it holy. According to the text of the 10 Commandments, the sabbath day is not "any day"; it is THE SEVENTH DAY. We learn what the Bible means by what it says. |

Thank you for your feed-back. When we as Christians look at the Old Testament we must do so through the eyes of the new covenant of spirit rather than law. Gal 5:18 says, But when you are directed by the Holy Spirit, you are no longer subjet to the law. (New Living Trans.) So we must look at the spirit of Ex 20:8 and following which is for us to have a day of rest every seven days to reenergize ourselves for service in His name. If my work week starts on a Tuesday and I work for 6 days (v.9) then my day of rest falls on Monday. Can you tell me what day of the week God started creation on? Romans 14:5,6 states One man considers one day more sacred than another, another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. He who reguards one day as special, does so to the Lord. (NIV) Paul in addressing the Romans made no mention of a certain day of the week, only that if I reguard one day special, I do so to the Lord. I happen to observe my sabbath on Sunday. I make time for worship, [everyday really], fellowship (family and friends), resting my body, and recharging my spirit. We learn what the Bible means through the interpretation of scripture by our Counselor the Holy Spirit, and the spiritual gift of knowledge. Peace----Jason |

We learn what the Bible means by what it says. It does NOT say one thing and mean the opposite or reverse of what it says. This is the first time I've ever heard anyone imply that the wording of the 10 Commandments is ambiguous, uncertain, or in dispute. Nice work -- take one of the 10 Commandments and then twist it and explain it away until it no longer means what the words say. |
