Friend, It's not a sin to worship God on any day. We all should worship everyday. But make no mistake there is one day, the Sabbath that is Holy, sanctified and set apart, and we are commanded not to do any work on it. We are also commanded to keep the Ten Commandments, the fourth stating to keep the Sabbath (seventh day) Holy and not to do any work. Looking at the example of the disciples...they kept the Sabbath Holy, even when Jesus had died. They waited until the Sabbath was over before going to Jesus early the next morning, first day of the week (our Sunday). God is very systematic and this follows suit of when the heavens and the earth were created, God rested from all his works on the Sabbath (seventh day). Can you show me any where in the bible where it says Sunday or the first day of the week is a holy day set apart to Worship God? Can you show me anywhere in the bible it tells us to worship together on the day of resurrection? Can you imagine if every "Christian" kept all the Ten Commandments? We would really be a witness for our God. The church would be set apart known to the world. Thanks for letting me share! |

Is this passage in Hebrews not a simple and clear picture that the seventh day sabbath of rest is still binding today? This passage is in the NT. Jesus is our example! Read the entire chapter of Ex. 16 they refused to obey God. Hebrew 4 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. 2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unt them; but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.3 For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said. As I have swarn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest; althought the words were finished from the foundation of the world (creation I presume)4For he spoke in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the sevent day from all his works. 5 And in this place again, if they shall enter into my rest. 6. Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief;7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, Today after so long a time; as it is said today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. 8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. 10For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his works, as God did from his. 11 Let us labour there to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. |

47 | 4th commandment has been done away? | Ps 111:7 | rferg | 57990 | ||
Chris, The Ten Commandments are good, spiritual and holy why wouldn't God want us to obey them? Can you imagine what this world would be like if every person obeyed them. No more murder, adultry (broken homes), etc. The first four commandments teach US how to love GOD. 1)Thou shall not have any other gods before me 2)Thou shall not make unto thee any graven images,thou shall not bow down to them for serve them, for I am a jealous God. 3)Thou shall not take the Lord thy Gods name in Vain. (say we believe in God and live opposite to what his word teaches) 4)remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shall you labor, and do all they work; but the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God. (Not resurrection Sunday) HOw do you know if you love God? By obeying his commandments. The last 6 teach US how to love one another. 5)honor your father and mother 6)Thou shall not kill 7)Thou sall not commit adultry 8)Thou shall not steal 9)Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor. 10)Thou shall not covet they neighbours house. Why wouldn't you want to learn to practice these commandments because you love God. You have a choice. When you are born again God places them in your heart and writes them on your mind. I believe the only issue with the Ten Commandments is trying to justify why we keep 9 of the Ten. This is called taking away from the Word of God. There is no bondage in keeping the Ten Commandments. All of us break the Ten Commandments, bless God He is merciful and forgives us when we realize and repent. |

Greetings! The 4th commandment was changed from Sabbath (Saturday) to Sunday many years ago by the Catholic Chruch. Read their book of Caticism (I don't have the name of the book in front of me.) This book explains their doctrine. On pg 51 the Ten Commandments are listed and it is plains that God gave the pope the authority to change Saturday Sabbath to Sunday. We know this is not true. How come the Christian Church worships on Sunday?Because of the doctrine of John Wesly who broke off from the Catholic Church, he brought this doctrine with him. There is nothing and I mean nothing in the bible that says we are to worship on Sunday. We get the names of the days of the week from the false Roman gods they worshipped, such as Sun god, Moon god (Monday), etc. Satan always has a counterfiet for the truth. There is only one TRUE God! The God who created the heavens and the earth and everything in it. He set ONE day aside, sanctificed ONE day, and ONE day is Holy, that is the Sabbath. Read Is 66:23 in heaven we are going to worship on the Sabbath shouldn't we be practicing it now? The bible says in Rev. not to add to or take away from this book. We here a lot about Mormons and other religions but why aren't we mentioning the religions who take away from this book. When you take away a commandment, look out! |

52 | repost of circumcission and baptism? | Col 2:12 | rferg | 57151 | ||
The Sabbath (seventh day of the week, which is Saturday), is a different day than the first day of the week, which would be what we call Sunday. The first day of the week, which we call Sunday is not a Sabbath day. The Sabbath is kept from sundown on Friday until sundown on Saturday (approx. 6pm) after 6pm consider it a new day which would be no longer the Sabbath but the first day of the week. I have found when studying the Sabbath to determine truth you should read all scripture with this time factor in mind. The world does not live by this time factor which, could cause confusion when studying the subject of the Sabbath. |

Greetings Kalos, Your response is flat rude! This person hasn't twisted scripture, the Protestant doctrine has. He's just trying to figure out the truth and I can tell you from experience it's not that easy after you have been taught years of false teachings. If you know so much why don't you try teaching what you know or sharing from your experience, how we can no the truth! Where is the love of Jesus in this response? Maybe you need a vacation! I don't know who is worse you or Nolan in your responses. Is this forum only for "scholars" such as you two, or can't average people ask question and share their beliefs. I am not opposed to learning something new as long as it can be proved with scripture and I don't mean just one pluck here and there to make a point. I also like to hear other peoples questions because it makes me think and it also answers my questions many time. Sincerely |

Jesus was not teaching a new kind of Sabbath, the Sabbath is to worship the "true creator" God. That will never change. Even in heaven we will be worshiping on the Sabbath (Is. 66:23). He only made Holy ONE day and that was the Sabbath (Saturday) and sanctified it, he was showing by example that it was okay to do "good" on the Sabbath. There were many "man" made rules pertaining to what you could and couldn't do on the Sabbath. In Colossians 2:16 KJV Let no man there for judge you in meat or in drink or in respect of a holday or of the new moon or of the sabbath days. I have noticed in other versions the word "days" is "day" or "Sabbaths", which would mean the seventh day Sabbath. But in the KJV is say "days" which is referring to the festivals (ordinances). This has nothing to do with the seventh day Sabbath God has commanded us to keep Holy. Also read starting at verse 14 through 17 and Eph. 2:15 |

I agree, it seems if we don't agree with a few people on this forum there is a smart retorte. I will continue to study the bible, right or wrong about a subject at the time, and God by his holy spirit will continue to sort things out for me. | ||||||
56 | question | Col 2:12 | rferg | 57145 | ||
Why do think Jesus was baptized? He didn't have any sin in him! It is clear that the Holy Spirit decended upon him. Matthew 3:16,17 He didn't start his ministry until he had been baptized in water and the Spirit of God decended upon him. | ||||||

58 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | rferg | 57037 | ||
A covenant is a contract between two. I willing made a choice after hearing the gospel. The covenant I made with God was that I believed that by looking to the Ten Commandments I realized I was a sinner and needed a savior. I believe that God the Father sent his Son through a virgin birth, who died, was burried, and rose again and took my place on the cross. Through baptism I died with Christ and was raised anew. I was filled with the Holy Spirit of promise. I agree to obey God and his commandments. Baptism was also my signature to the covenant that I have with God. Flesh and blood cannot enter the kingdom of God. You have to be Spirit. My concern is for those who have excepted Christ and for the unsaved. Many have not heard the entire gospel. When they are not preaching the entire gospel, which is including if you "believe" you should be baptized. When or if a new believer reads their bible and see's the word baptism they will not know what it means or it can cause confusion. I have also been asking many teenagers who are in Christian families if their kids are baptized and they say no and we wonder why we have kids raised in a christian home and they have no power to live like Christians. These same kids say they believe. Where is the power from the Holy Spirit to lead them in paths of righteousness? |

Again one scripture quoted by itself. Act 16:31 is a good EXAMPLE of why we who do believe need to be baptized. The story starts in Act 16:22 Paul and Silas were imprisioned and the jailer was commanded to guard them securely; 25 and after midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hyms to of praise to God. 26 and there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison house were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone's chains were unfastened. 27 And when the jailer had been roused out of sleep and had seen the prison doors opened, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisioners had escaped. 28 Paul cried outwith a loud voice, saying, Do yourself not harm, for we are all here! 30 And after he brought them out, he said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" 31 And they said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you shall be saved, you and your household." 32 They spoke the word of the Lord (the entire gospel of Christ) to him together with all who were in his house. 33 And he took them that very house of the night and washed their wounds (Paul and Silas from their blows), and immediately he was baptized, he and all his household. We know they used water here to baptize because they washed their wounds also and you need water to wash wounds. Notice they went they very hour of NIGHT to be baptized after him and his household had heard the entire word of the Lord preached to them. |

In 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Paul in speaking to the bretheren (saved), , I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also you have received (already received), and where in you stand (I take this to mean they have already "believed" were baptized and now they are believers (belonging to the family of God). 2By which also you are saved (already baptized, born again, saved), if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless you have "believed" in vain.3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scripture. 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.5 And that he (Jesus) was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve. The reason baptism is not mention is because Paul is speaking to the brethern, believers, born again already. |
