Bible Question:
Are Christians to keep the Sabbath? "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." Exodus 20:8 (ESV) 1. Are Christians obligated to keep the Sabbath—the Sabbath of Old Testament Judaism? 2. Are Christians obligated to turn Sunday into a kind of a Sabbath with similar restrictions? 3. Are Christians to reject all Sabbath Law and enjoy freedom from that Sabbath Law and leave any other designated day alone, as to prescribing any specific restrictions? 4. What is the Lord's Day, as Sunday is called in the Scripture? Who instituted it, and to what degree are we obligated to it? Before you submit an answer to one or more of the above questions, make sure your post is biblically based and, whenever possible, you have included Bible references to support it. |
Bible Answer: Don't put me back under the law! Rom 8:2 says, "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death". Isn't it great news! We thankfully have a new covenant, the old is past away. If you're saved, Christ is your Sabbath Rest. No more law.....if saved, we are under liberty. In Him, Luke |
