Bible Note: My keeping of the Sabbath is because my Creator said to. No, it doesn't aquire grace. Grace is undeserved favor. I did nothing to deserve favor, I deserved death. However, the price was paid for what I deserved by another who had the power to do so. My faith in Yah'shua is what saves me, and because I am saved I follow the commands of my Savior. Keeping the Sabbath is one of his commands. Sabbath is a blessing of rest and devotion. Gen 2:2 And on the seventh day Elohim completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. Gen 2:3 And Elohim blessed the seventh day and set it apart, because on it He rested from all His work which Elohim in creating had made. It was from the beginning that he set this day apart for rest, and this day was kept even in Yah'shua's life, and even now. Even those close to Yah'shua kept the Sabbath: Luk 23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment. Luk 24:1 Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. Notice the first day of the week followed Sabbath, which is on the 7th day just as started immediately following creation. Those who keep the Sabbath do a weekly acknowledgement that they are created beings, and keep this day special out of respect for their Creator |
