I would like to refer you to Colossians 2:15-16. Now that Jesus dwells within us by the Holy Spirit we are not bound by the rituals of the OT laws that were a mere shadow of His coming. Just like we may see a shadow of something coming at us that puts us on alert but when we see the object that is coming we focus our attention on it and forget about the shadow. We now fulfill the law by loving one another (Romans 13:8)and when we love God and love one another, we won't intentionally offend anyone. Since Jesus lives within us, every day should be a holy day for the believer. By the righteousness of Jesus, we are being made righteous (2Timothy 4:8). The law is to expose sin by those who are separated from God, (Romans 3:19), and not for the righteous, (1Timothy 1:9). When we choose to trust our eternal souls to Jesus, His law of loving one another,(John 15:12) is written in our hearts, (Jeremiah 31:33). How can someone have the Holy Spirit living within them, loving each other with God's love and proceed to commit adultry, murder, worship idols and covet? If they do these things it's because they are not truly saved (1John 2:4)and if that is the case all the sabbath days in the world can't save them from distruction, only the cross of Jesus will accomplish that. |
