Bible Note: No, I am not a SDA. I believe with the 'Reformed Church', 'Doppers' in South Africa. In other words, I am a Calvinist. I do not however believe Sunday is the Lord's Day of worship-rest. Like Calvin, I believe Jesus resurrected on the Seventh Day Sabbath. Unfortunately Calvin said, that as Christ resurrected on the Sabbath Day, he abolished it. I believe though by having raised on the Sabbath Day Christ invested the Sabbath with a property and worthiness it before did not have but in the figures from the Old Testament dispensation like the creation and the redemption from the bondage in Egypt. Like Karl Barth - also a Calvinist - I believe "what made this day" - the day of the Church's worship-rest - "what it is, is that which happened on it and to it, namely, the resurrection of Christ from the dead". Unfortunately (once again) Barth attributed this privilege and right of the day of Jesus' resurrection, incorrectly and inappropriately, to the First Day of the week, Sunday. Because it is written for ever: "In the Sabbath's fullness of day mid-afternoon as it began to dawn towards the First Day of the week ...." and the circumstance of Jesus resurrection, occurring. With this Truth ALL TRUTH of the Scriptures perfectly agree. That is why I am a Sabbath's believer and follower of Jesus Christ, despite all opposition holding to the Head and the Corpus Christi, nourishment being ministered at Sabbath's feasting on Christ Jesus, growing with the growth of God. Col2:12-19. |
