doclinda2 stJohn is absolutely right. Colossians 2:16 Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day - things which are a mere shadow of what is to come; the the substance belongs to Christ. Romans 14:5, 6a One person regards one day above another, another regards every day alike. Each person must be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes the day, observes it for the Lord. We are no longer under the covenant of the Law, we are under the new covenant of grace in the blood of Christ Jesus. There is liberty in Christ. A good book to read on this aspect of being free from the Law is all of Galatians especially chapters 3-5. According to Paul you are not dishonoring God by gardening or whatever else on Saturday. Another way of looking at this thing about the law is to try to understand that there were the Ten Commandments and then about 600 more laws in the OT to be keeping. No one could keep them all, and if you fell in one, you fell in them all and were automatically guilty of all. But now, righteousness has been put to our account with God by the blood of Jesus, fulfilling the whole requirement of keeping the whole Law. So keep on worshipping, praising, meditating, and honoring Him to His glory and don't worry about keeping laws. blessings abound, bowler |

I'm still trying to figure out how to work this site. I have just read your answer. It allows me not to go around feeling condemnation all of the time. I will do as you have said, worthipping, praising, meditating and honoring Him to His glory. Thank you for your words of encouragement and scripture that I can refer to and build on my faith. God bless you too. Linda |
