Subject: why isn't the fourth commandment kept? |
Bible Note: And another Heb 10:23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; 24 and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, 25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near. I realize that Paul (assumed author) doesn't here cite in this book the preference for the first day of the week for christians as the day of worship but the Apostles do so in numerous other books in Acts 20 and in 1 Cor 16:1 Now about the collection for God's people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do. 2On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made. Notice here, he even tells the Corinthians that he has provided the same instructions about the day of worship to Galatia. Sounds like a universal endorsement from the Holy Spirit if you ask me. The most important point about all this is the fact that the Law of Moses with its mention of the Sabbath has been done away with its being nailed to the cross with Jesus. God bless. --Rowdy |
