Bible Question:
Are you advocating using Colossians 2:16-17 (taken out of context) to destroy the authority of the 10 commandments? In Zechariah 14:16-19 it states that the Feast of Tabernacles will be kept in the soon coming Kingdom of God when Christ will rule from Jerusalem. There is a CURSE promised in these verses for any nation who will not keep this HOLY SABBATH (or festival). The question for you my freind is this - are you willing to publicly deny and rebuke the 4th commandment of GOD (which as a result condemns the other 9) for the sake of one misquoted scripture? Brother in agape love please go back and read 1 John 3:4 "Whosoever committeth sin TRANSGRESSETH ALSO THE LAW: for sin is THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW" Thank GOD for the 10 commandments Brother Billy Joe |
Bible Answer: Brother Billy Joe Break the Ten Commandments? May it never happen. Let's read the 4th commandment. Exodus 20:8-11 "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. [9] Six days you shall labor and do all your work, [10] but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. [11] For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it. Did you attend church Saturday? Did the preacher preach? He was working. Did you drive? You were working. Did your wife fix dinner after service? She was working. The Sabbath isn't for worship it is for rest. Read it again. Now what did Jesus mean when He said He was Lord of the Sabbath? Jesus meant He was the Rest Giver He had fulfilled the Sabbath Rest once and for all. It is not that anyone is breaking the fourth commandment, the fourth commandment has been fulfulled for once and for all. Sunday is not the Sabbath nor is it a replacement for the Sabbath that is misteaching that started fairly late in church history. Sunday in the first century church was a day of celebration and worship on the day our Lord arose from the gave. That is what it should be today. To call it the Sabbath is an error, the Sabath wasn't changed it was fulfilled. EdB |
