Study the word rest. It means to guard or keep safe. Our lives are caught up in the six days we work to make a living here. Work that is good for us. The seventh day sabbath reminds us of our Creator. It also reminds us to worship Him and to desire transformation back into His image. O how I love Jesus 🎶
Amen to that Pastor Randy, observing the Sabbath you will be bless and consecrated by obeying his commandment, He is forever bless and he is a Holy God...He is the Lord of the Sabbath..Pastor Oliver PNG..
So many childish comment don't study the history of any church, study the word of God and the Holy Spirit of God will open your eyes that you can clearly See the truth and understand it, if you are spiritually blind. The Holy Spirit is the Author if the Word of God, that why Jesus declare in John 16: 7 It is for your advantage that I must go that your helper will come, John 14:16, 26,15:26 He will pray the father to send our helper, Jesus already pray that the helper will be with us and in us, we have to study the word carefully Joshua 1:8 read it..Pastor Oliver PNG..
In civil law the "intent" often decides the outcome. In God's eyes we intend to keep the Seventh day (Saturday) holy and that has been my practice for over 7 decades; I am not changing regardless of the calender debates.
Nobody can Change what My God has Said!!- Nothing And No one can change His Word😊For His Word Endures forever!! Not Mans Lies!! Or Any Useless Opinions!! Doesn't Matter👍God's word Always Matters!!+ Christ Kept it and still Today and Forever👍😊
Why emphasis on a day ? Mark 12:28-34 28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?” 29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 👉 *There is no commandment greater than these*👈
Sabath is rest day, to rest is to finish, accomplish. I rest on the sabath day, but worship everyday of the week. I don't judge those who fix a day convenient to them, God's intention was to make man not forget him, observing a day does not bring salvation, trusting and accepting Jesus Christ does. I thank God through Jesus Christ am a child of God, If you are also save praise the Lord we will meet there at his feet with rejoicing that we were counted worthy to be God's children, shalom.
Defending standards and preaching the truth is not Judging. If I love stealing and the preacher preaches from the Commandments Do not steal .He's not Judging you , he's simply saying the truth . Chrst Himself spoke of this "I came not to judge the world but the words which I speak shall judge you" and as we know, the words which Christ spoke were God's words which are truth.
Colossians 2:16-17 (KJV) Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
This is why the sabbath was given: Deuteronomy 5:15 (KJV) And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
Then what you are saying is that I should have many Gods since the first commandment also gives a reference on God savind the children of israel from the land of bondage.
Please pastor haven't you wondered yet HOW could a God that "never slumber nor sleep" REST on a certain day?...What was that very DAY? Why Jesus nor His disciples or Apostles NEVER emphasis on Saturday? Thank you.
Sounded good until the moment the preacher said, "God rested THEN He blessed the Sabbath Day. " The Hebrew Text says AND (Ve'Shabat) the Rest/Shabbat AND Blessing took place simultaneously. We MUST not try and explain away what is written. Why would the Prophets prophecy the sanctity regarding His Sabbath Day. Much more regarding this.
Colossians 2:13-14 (KJV) And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
@@iskaykabeya609 Yes of course. I know that will be your response every time the LAW is referenced even thought Deuteronomy 5:15, Nehemiah 9:14, Ezekiel 20: 11-12, Psalms 147:19-20, Amos 3:2, Romans 9:4, etc. say otherwise. At this point all i can do is keep you in my prayers. Grace and peace
God has given us enough evidence about his sacred Day, I don't understand why People don't get it, its one of the commandment that got me out of the Catholics church and I cant praise God enough for the truth yet its only those who love God with all their heart will understand this deep Truth
Whenever love to God is mentioned in the new testament is the expression of the 10 commandments. ...and loving your neighbour as yourself.. Everybody will be judge by the 10 commandments James 2:10-11
If the Jews are keeping the Sabbath on Saturday which day you prefer.. Every country has their constitution and bylaws to live by if you are a citizen of that country that similar to the Kingdom of God Almighty, his Commandments is the constitution of his Kingdom, if you don't want to obey because you belongs to another kingdom, disobedience God will punish..Pastor Oliver PNG
Sabbath or no Sabbath,what difference does it make to honour a day while one is immensely and drowning in sin? My view is that,God deeply longs for people to repent and accept Jesus Christ of Nazareth than to honour days,events and so forth?
How can you say "what difference" does it make when it comes to a commandment THAT GOD SAID? Whenever GOD says something IT ALWAYS MAKES A DIFFERENCE!!!
Romans 3:21-22 (KJV) But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
11-23-2024. Why Sabbath is important to GOD. There has to be a day set off to be with FAMILY. GOD is all! Time a day with Him is family time. We spend time with Earth family should we also spend time with Heavenly Father?! Answer yes.
The Sabbath Day is The Lord's Day of Rest👍Not Sunday👍I Repeat!!- Sunday is Not The Lord's Day!!- Not At All!!- Period👍😄 The Lord God and Jesus Has Nothing to do with Sunday Worship!!- Nothing!!+ Never went to church on Sunday!!- Never!!- he only went to Church on The Sabbath!!- Not on Sunday!!- That's in the Bible!!
Let's hope this explanation is by revelation, because already am not convinced if the rest is from the spiritual or physical perspective, God doesn't get tired the Bible say he never sleeps no slumbers.
There is only 1 Sabbath in existence which is on the seventh day. Thanks brother for putting this in the simplest form. Please elaborate since others are confused about the Sabbath in the Mosaic laws which are no longer valid since Jesus became the sacrificial lamb to save humanity.
Joshua 6.15, I don't see the Israelis resting on the seventh day. Joshua 6:15 [15]And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
This is when the sabbath command was given: Nehemiah 9:13-14 (KJV) Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments: And madest known unto them thy holy sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses thy servant:
@@danenehuntting3404 Beloved of God try again, that answer has been disproven. The Genesis account tells us what God did not what he commanded to man. Stop repeating what others have told you and let the Holy Spirit together with your brain give you discernment. At any rate the day of worship is not a salvation issue. Have you heard about the 16 essentials of the faith? The sabbath issue does not make the list. Grace and peace
He’s telling you keep his commandments! He said the Sabbath is a sign between him and his people! If you don’t have that sign or mark you have the other mark, mark of the beast! And Easter is a pagan festival! SDA is nothing more than hybrid pagan worship!
Jesus told the rich young ruler to keep God's 10 commandments if he want to inherit eternal life. Matthew 19. Revelation 22: 14 Blessed are they that do his commandments that they may have right to the tree of life..etc...
If it was nailed to the cross with Christ, why do police people who steal and commited adultery, this is part of the ten commandment so why removing the Sabbath, Jesus observe the Sabbath, recorded on Luke 4:16 , Dont think I have come to abolish the law but to fullfil it, not even any part of the Law will disapear untill heaven and earth will pass away..God declare 7th day in Genesis 2:2,3, John 20: 1 the first day of the week which Jesus arose. Is not wrong to worship on another day but which one that Yahweh bless and declare it Holy, when God demand us to bring or offer somethings for his glory; there is no subtittute for it, lamb and bulls and other ceremonial activity is the substitute of Jesus Christ who is the sacrificial lamb of Yahweh, infect he is the High priest of the new covenant and His Holy Spirit is the Fire for the sacrifice, I hope this comments can help you understand..Pastor Oliver PNG
Jews are hard core about keeping the law. If anyone had altered the calendar since the time of Jesus to disrupt the 7 day pattern we would know by rabbinical writings.
Yes there are a few random exceptions like a Pacific island or two, but in most of the world Jews have been carefully keeping the Sabbath for thousands of years. If anyone doesn't believe that, the burden of proof rests on them to prove them wrong. Jewish sects will debate fine points of the law ad nauseam. If the weekly cycle changed we would have heard about it.
@@derekriethmeier4366 When you retrace the date of Christ death Nissan 14 ad31, it does not align with Friday. This shows that we are not on the same cycle. When was the first time that we were introduced to the Babylonian names for the days of the week? If we can honestly use the crucifixion of Christ to show the 7th day Sabbath it would be on a solid foundation. The actual time of Easter is imperfect and will not give an accurate result. Therefore we can no longer use Easter to prove that Saturday is the Sabbath.
Gal 1:11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. Gal 1:12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. Gal 1:13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it: Gal 1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
Genesis 1:14 doesn't say Saturday, it just says Shabbat. The Hebrew is much deeper and the translators chose not to translate what's there. The 6 days came forth fron the Sabbath Day. The Sabbath is also know as the Queen to the King. But, back to rhe Saturday. These Gregorian days are not parallel to the Priestly Hebraic Calendar of Genesis 1:1. Whan Messiah returns, he will balance all things even in the Heavenlies.
@@John-James888 Your point is on the side of honesty. I am saying that the lights of heaven were the original reference point to mark time, therefore the 7th day sabbath must have some connection with the lights above.
The time of the Passover is another good reference point to prove that Saturday is the Sabbath. Christ was crucified on the 14th day of Nissan and the sabbath came after. Easter is a little inaccurate to be used as a reference point since it comes every first Sunday after the Passover date when Christ was crucified- the first Sunday after the Passover full moon. An inaccurate reference point will give the wrong result for the Sabbath day. The Catholic church understand the biblical timing but they made the change of times. The calculation of Easter shows that they understand biblical timing better than sda.
Why do so many people use this text. This text is used for the people who respect. He is saying that because he is precauting the church. Therefore saying if I respect the seventh day Sabbath this mean that I should not be judged by other people
@@umabrijmohun6720 Legalism works hand in hand with the law. And based on the old testament, it was what guided Israelites on their way till the coming of christ (Galatians 3:24). After Jesus came he became the Lord of the Sabbath (Matthew 12:8) And our righteousness is nolonger of the law but of grace and faith. If you have time read these scriptures (Matthew 5:20-48 and Luke 18:18-23) I pray the revelation of the Holyspirit as you do so. So what Paul speaks in Colossians 2:16-17 is based upon after Christ had come on earth and ressurected and back in heaven.
@@cartergift7128 Sorry I didnt have time to complete my comment ; When we read from verse 11--17 Then we will come to this understanding Paul is saying not legalism but Christ ,he taught the gentile believers (also Christians today )to resist the Jewish believers Christians who were bringing them into bondage by telling them to follow Jewish dietary laws,Jewish Sabbaths (monthly and weekly )and feast days bcuz they are no longer obligated to keep them verse (17)Which are a shadow of things to come but the substance is of Christ If you cross reference Col 2:16 with Lev 23:1--3 ,Moses to whom the Law was given,says the 7th day Sabbath is a feast day Now the Lord said to Moses "Speak to the children of Israel and say to them The feast of Lord which you shall proclaim to be a Holy convocation ,These are my feast Six days work shall be done but the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest,a holy convocation,you shall do not work on it ,It is the Sabbath of the Lord For Christians under new covenant sabbath is not a day but it is embodied in Christ Heb 4:4--11,Matt 11:28--29
I worship everyday as well but what many people fail to realize is that everyday is not the sabbath day, Saturday was set aside to devote wholly to God he gave us 6 working days to do what we want but on the 7th day which is the sabbath it is to be devoted to him. So it’s not only on a Saturday we are suppose to worship but that Saturday is unlike any other day it was blessed and sanctified hallowed and set apart for us.
It is no evil to worship God in any day. But the sabbath, He commands ,must be dedicated to Him and only Him if you work on sabbath you transgress aagainst the Law of God . And remember that in a Christian life we are to put away all our opinions and follow what God said . It's never a matter of debate it's a matter of the truth which was thousands of years ago and remains as it is now despite of man's changing nature, the truth still stands accept it or not is your personal choice; The seventh day is the sabbath It was blessed, sanctified and set aside by God to be His Holy day in it we shall do no work but consecrate ourselves to God and His devine service. Six days He gave us to do all our work but The seventh is His and that does not change . Even if majority of the world observes Sunday, the first day of the week as the sabbath, that does not change the truth, written in God's Holy word. God Himself Led us by example in its observance yet we , despite knowing the truth, still do it differently because we found our parents doing it and many as a tradition . Christ Himself Observed the sabbath what more evidence stronger than this does the world need to believe in His word ;the truth . Christ Said " In vain they worship me,teaching as doctrines the commandments of Men " Let this be an eye opener In your life.
@cal otwoma Beloved lets put things into the correct context. The sabbath was first given to the Jews (Exodus 16:23)and the Jews only (Nehemiah 9:14; psalms 147: 19-20; Ezekiel 20:12; Romans 9:4) by the hand of moses (Nehemiah 9:14). Was moses alive at the beginning of creation? The sabbath observation was to put the Israelites in remembrance of the rest God gave them from their slave labour in Egypt (Deuteronomy 5:15). Now the people of God both Jew and gentile are no longer under the ordinances of the mosaic law or commanded to follow it, but under the law of Christ (Genesis 49:10; Jeremiah 31: 31-33; Romans 10:4; Hebrews 7:11-12). If someone chooses to celebrate the sabbath thats fine and if someone chooses to not celebrate the sabbath that is fine to (Romans 14: 5-6; Colossians 2:16). The ordinances of the mosaic law was a shadow of things to come not the things themself. And he has come: Jesus Christ. " Being justified by faith we have peace with God". Grace mercy and peace.
how exactly do you know its saturday today tracing back 5600 years to the Genisis creation week? is there a cave somewhere with 5600 * 52 * 7 marks on the wall where someone kept track of the day of the week that we never heard of including the times when the hebrew people abandoned their religion for centuries?
@@danenehuntting3404 any reason?! if you are going to murder someone you damn well better know its actually saturday you have no answer, only excuses for your obivously man made religion
@Kingdom Truth777 Beloved of God thanks for taking the time to respond. Unfortunately i see you have cherry picked verses and sections of verses and combinations of sections to support your false narrative. Inaddition, you have ignored the pretext and context of these verses. In every instances where the sabbath was commanded in the old and new testament the audience/recipients were the israelites. The simple reason is that the israelites were the only people group given the sabbath (psalms 147: 19-20, romans 9:4). This fact is further reiterated in Nehemiah 9:14, and Ezekiel 20: 10-12. It is true that an association is made between creation and the sabbath observation but so is the exodus. So which one is it? The sabbath command first appears in exodus and not in genesis. In genesis we are told what God did not what he commanded men. In the new testament era the "Lords day" was not the sabbath but rather sunday because it was on sunday Jesus rose from the dead. I am not saying that sunday is the sabbath, it is acknowledged that saturday is the jewish sabbath. So here John is saying that he received the vision on the first day of the week: sunday. When Jesus says he is" lord of the sabbath" its important to put the verse and chapter into the right context. The context is that the pharisees had turned the sabbath into an idol by adding restrictions and stipulations to it that Moses never commanded. So Jesus was rebuking them for this. Jesus was saying that as a jew you are commanded to observe the sabbath but not be a slave to it to the extent that you end up breaking other commands. Again the audience in this case is important to note when he uses the word "man". Jesus also said " so shall a MAN leave his mother and father and cleave to a wife". Does this mean that every man has to get married? Of course not because we understand the context in which this statement was said. Context, context, context. Grace and peace
KJV Hebrews 4 4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works. 8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. 9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. 10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. I am the Lord I changed not.
You are right about Sunday being the Lord's day... and SDA live as though Sundays have no significance. From my understanding, there should be no preaching or man teaching his interpretation of the scriotures on God's Holy Sabbath. That they should only be read. Man is sinful and prone to error. Increases chance to teach in error which is in complete contradiction of the word Holy. This is why they described Jesus's teaching as one who had authority. It's because He actually came with true knowledge and explanation as if he were speaking from personal experience. No one else did that in the temples. The towns were limited with Holy scriptures so people came simply to read or hear them read.
Beloved of God the historical event was not creation but rather the exodus of the israelites ( Deuteronomy 5:15, Nehemiah 9:14, Ezekiel 20: 10-13)." sabbath language" really my brother? Grace and peace
Pastor Skeete if you make a statement you need to give the Bible verse as proof. For instance you said God said the Sabbath is "His Day."But you did not give the bible verse to back up your claim!!!
A person cannot be judged for the day they choose to worship God in fellowship: Romans 14:5-6 (KJV) One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
This however doesn't nullify the truth . God is the judge and not man He's the author of the Bible and cannot contradict Himself. His truth judges and not the preachers of His word . The sabbath was initiated back in the garden of eden with God as it's inventr and first observer not because He was tired but to give an example who am I a mortal man to go against His will The sabbath was is and always will remain The seventh day of the week blessed sanctified and set aside by God Himself . The verse Quoted above don't change that fact . It was an adress to the Jews who took pride in ceremonies and the holy days that they observed in regards to sacrifices. This made them regard the other nations and other people as inferior hence could not even shake hands with them , this was not according to God's will . His will was that after receiving the truth they would share it to the heathen nations and how can yu share the word with one whom you don't exchange greetings.?
@@calotwoma671 Beloved of God i appreciate your passion in this matter but you are mixing the truth with lies. The sabbath was first mentioned as a command 2500 years after creation (Exodus 16). Furthermore, we are told why it was given (Deuteronomy 5:15), to whom and when it was given (Nehemiah 9:14, Ezekiel 20:12) and to whom it was not given (Psalms 147: 19-20, Acts 21:25, Romans 9:4). You are making the 2 Corinthians 3:14 error not acknowledging that the Jeremiah 31: 31-33 prophecy has been fulfilled and making an idol of a day as Jesus pointed out (Mark 2:27-28). I pray you would be lead by the spirit of truth and not of the imaginations of men. Grace and peace be multiplied.
The sabbath is for all mankindas mentioned in the bible it's not for certain group of people, when one decides to become a belier you have to embrace the truth as a whole not partly. Sabath is given as a rest for all created human beings and if at all you wish not to keep it fine because its purpose is to pay allegiance to God as the creator , He did it as an example to me and I'll not be ashamed to follow his noble example. Hislaw is a whole break one of the ten you break all , it's not rocket science, christ himself lived according to the law of God and was tested in all points yet withoutsin . The coice is yours to make whose consequences you shall solely bear it is all up to you.
Thou shalt keep all my sabbaths. This means sabbath comes on the 7th day, and new moon day, and on the first and last days of the feasts of the lord, as the feast of unleavened bread, first day and last day is a sabbath unto you. That day can follow or come before the seventh, and can fall also on the seventh. So 2 sabaths back to back. Keep all his sabbaths brethren.
Dear brother Randy; For Adam, God's Sabbath had to be the 7th Millennium. "In the day you eat you die"; 930 years old.(See 2 Peter 3.) Please check this out, We keep 4 Sabbath's each Month to show we believe this wonderful truth. shalom.
How can God call Sabbath the 7th day , when he knew that no one will ever lived for 7000 years to keep it.? You sound like a Jehovah's witnesses who believe that the 6 days of creation was 6000 years.
Jesus healed on the Sabbath and his disciple broke wheatears and ate in the Sabbath , one reason he was killed was he works on the Sabbath he did not obey the law of Moses. Even when he had told them that He was greater than Moses. That made the Jews mad against him. The Jews had to go to the temple to worship and to the synagogue to be taught and to learn the Tora. The Christian need not go to the temple in Jerusalem because God does not live there, it was destroyed , one reason they worshiped ( idolised) the temple rather than worship God. But through Christ Jesus our bodies are made into temples to worship God anywhere anytime since we live and move in our bodies.
@@maranathaafrica you sound stupid, where in the Bible or in the old testament people were forbidden to pray over the sick on the Sabbath day??? Remember the Pharisees added their own traditions on God's holy day.. don't confuse the two. There's difference between God's law ( 10 commandments ) And Moses's Law written in a book. 10 commandments were written in two tables of stone by the finger of God. Go study the difference between God's law and Moses's law. Ceremonial Sabbaths or annual Sabbaths and weekly 7th day Sabbath. Then you can argue
@@iskaykabeya609 Yes I could be, didn't they want kill Jesus because he healed on the Sabbath. He even ask one to take his bed and go in a Sabbath. Don't we have Pharisees even today.?
Anytime time a person quotes from a false prophet/teacher (Ellen G. White) to strengthen their point, its always a cause for concern. Please pray for discernment.
Beloved of God the Almighty does not need rest so you are in error to use the genesis account to justify your heresy. " sabbath day language" really my brother? 2 Corinthians 3:14 error continues to this day. Grace and peace
Jubilees 2:30-32, and pay ATTENTION to verse 31. The Israelites are the ONLY people sanctified to keep the Sabbath day HOLY. The rest of the people are NOT sanctified to do that. The Israelites, who are sanctified to keep it but do not keep it because they are into this Sunday worshipping thing are committing an abomination. I am talking here about the real descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and NOT the fake ones. Shalom.
@wilhomatthews matthews The word of God says that "The sabbath was made for man" Jesus used the term "man" in the generic sense referring to mankind (Mark 2:1-2 KJV). The sabbath was instituted at creation (Genesis 2:1-2 KJV), "there were no Jews in the world for at least 2,000 years after creation". Be blessed!
@@lisajones496.... and it was kept in heaven until Israel came into being and after Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who were CHOSEN by Yahuah, the children of Israel were sanctified to keep the Sabbath day HOLY. Even Yahusha HaMashiach kept the Sabbath and NOT ONCE did he ever say the Sabbath should be abolished during his time or after his death. That doctrine came at the time of christianity and mostly enforced during the Black Hebrew Inquisition, trying to force the Hebrew Israelites to abandon the Torah. Those with non human genes in their DNA can keep it or disregard it together with the heathens it makes no difference, but as for the Israelites, that's an abomination from what ever angle you view it. The non Israelite humans that get grafted into Israel are under obligation to keep the Sabbath day HOLY, and there are no two ways about it. We worship Him in His terms and conditions only and we don't tell Him how we will worship Him. Any deviation from that is from Satan the devil. We can try to philosophise this and use the theological knowledge about it, but it will NOT change anything. The serpent seed can continue to worship their forefathers like the serpent and the Fallen Angels as their gods, being joined in that by the ungrafted heathens, that doesn't mean a thing to us. I only feel sorry for the Israelite brothers and sisters who are being misled into Satan worshipping thinking that they are worshipping Yahuah The Most High Elohim of Israel their forefathers. Shalom.
@@wilhomatthewsmatthews8990 my brother I pray for the day when we will stop all this debating and truly get to know Jesus, the one who gave his life for us all, the one who is no respecter of persons, the ground is leveled at the cross, all are welcomed. “As we meditate upon the perfections of the savior, we shall desire to be wholly transformed and renewed in the image of his purity. There will be a hungering and thirsting of soul to become like him whom we adore. The more our thoughts are upon Christ, the more we shall speak of him to others and represent him to the world”.

@@lisajones496 "ye serpents, generation of vipers, how can you escape the damnation of hell"; remember that? He was talking to the ones that literally had the non human genes in their DNA. Today that is played down like it was symbolic to cover up and camouflage the real serpent seed. That serpent seed is the one that is holding the Hebrew Scriptures in one hand while they hold and advance the Christian doctrines inspired by their father Satan the devil and the father of all lies in the other hand. They know how to transform themselves into the ministers of righteousness and are misleading millions of Hebrew Israelites. Shalom.
@@wilhomatthewsmatthews8990 “Every one of us needs to have a deep insight into the teachings of the Word of God. Our minds must be prepared to stand every test and resist every temptation, whether from without or from within. We must know why we believe as we do, why we are on the Lord’s side. The truth must keep watch in our hearts, ready to sound an alarm and summon us to action against every foe. The power of darkness will open their batteries upon us; and all who are indifferent and careless, who have set their affections on their earthly treasure, and have not cared to understand God’s dealings with his people will be ready victims. No power but a knowledge of the truth as it is in Jesus will ever make us steadfast; but with this, one may chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight.” This will be my last response to you; however, I will continue praying for you.

There's nothing wrong with the Sabbath absolutely nothing wrong .. but the Sabbath was made for the Jews only .. if U were a Jew living in Jerusalem then Saturday 2000 years ago .. U would go into the church on Saturday .. but the world 🌎 is bigger .. now .. when it's Saturday here in Australia 🇦🇺... then in a America it will be Friday along with the other countries .. will be different .. but if U observe a Sabbath day in any country tell me IS IT A SIN OR CAN we LOSE our SALVATION .. because we are not observing a Sabbath day 🤔 if U say yes .. then your adding work's to salvation .. meaning that U Christ Jesus death on the cross is by what we are all saved by .. for we are all saved by grace through Christ faith in Christ.. work's or anything we do is not equal for you can't add something or any works that we do .. for eternal life and the cross .. we are only SAVED through our faith in Christ ... U can still observe a Sabbath day and still have by faith in Christ Jesus .. but what U do is not equal to what Christ Jesus did for us on the cross .. by shedding his blood . It's not equal. U can still do good works and if U decide to observe a Sabbath day or any other day like the Jews of old did .. then do it unto the Lord ♥️ for Ellen g white thought within her self for every one to observe a Sabbath and everyone just followed her beliefs concerning a Sabbath day .. it's all faith in Christ Jesus alone and that's what saves us .. for by grace you have been saved through faith in Christ Jesus .. I'll tell a secret when the spirit of God is poured out in the last days as the prophet Joel says then you'll understand because the spirit of God will reveal to his people he's your true teacher .. not Ellen g white 🙏🌎🇦🇺🤔
We weren't there when God created Adam, yet there he was. What's your point, and what does "judging" have to do with anything? Why is the non-believer's response always, "Don't judge…."? Isaiah 66:22-23 (In speaking about heaven) And it shall come to pass that from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship me, saith the Lord. This means the Sabbath will continue in heaven. Matt 5:19 Whosoever shall break the least of these commandments, and shall teach them so, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. Matt 28:20 Go ye therefore…teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. Acts 15:21 For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath. Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and have the faith of Jesus. Most of these references are from the New Testament-where's the judging? Why is the 4th commandment the only one that begins with, "Remember"?
Beloved of God why are you misleading the flock. God does not need to rest. Therefore rest in this context refers to the end of the creation work. For six days God added the act of creation to his program. On the seventh he returned to his regular program of being God. The event that signifies the sabbath command is not creation but rather the exodus of the israelites from egypt because God gave them rest from their labor as slaves in egypt (Deuteronomy 5:15). When they observed the sabbath they remembered that they serve a God that can deliver them from their enemies.
l beg to differ on this point. If we look at both Exodus 20:8-11 and Deuteronomy 5:12-15, it is the same God who gave both commandments, which are not 2 different commandments, but one. They only bring out different points of emphasis that the Lord wanted us to understand. Secondarily, the creation came before sin and the need for God to deliver His people, the Israelites out of Egyptian bondage came afterwards. Basically, showing that God is our Creator as well as, our Savior. Additionally, If we carefully compare both Scriptures as mentioned earlier, the reason God reminds us to keep the Sabbath Holy, is because it is first of all His day. He says, “ “If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord,...” ( Isaiah 58:13). “For the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath day” (Matthew 12:8). Further, John said, “I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet” (Revelation 1:10).n Next, He is the Lord of it (Mark 2:27 ). Finally, the Lord says, “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.”(Exodus 20:8). Why or because, “For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is,...” (Exodus20:11). He says, “Six days shalt thou do all thy work:” (Deuteronomy 5:13). “...therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day.” (Deuteronomy 5:15). My prayer is that the Lord will give us His grace to accept and walk in His truth. May He strengthen, settle and establish all who believe and put their trust in Him. May the Holy Spirit give peace and unity in Christ Jesus to all the saints. Visit REKLAMATION MINISTRIES for more Present Prophetic Truths in Christ. God bless.
@@kingdomtruth7773 Beloved of God thanks for taking the time to respond. Unfortunately i see you have cherry picked verses and sections of verses and combinations of sections to support your false narrative. Inaddition, you have ignored the pretext and context of these verses. In every instances where the sabbath was commanded in the old and new testament the audience/recipients were the israelites. The simple reason is that the israelites were the only people group given the sabbath (psalms 147: 19-20, romans 9:4). This fact is further reiterated in Nehemiah 9:14, and Ezekiel 20: 10-12. It is true that an association is made between creation and the sabbath observation but so is the exodus. So which one is it? The sabbath command first appears in exodus and not in genesis. In genesis we are told what God did not what he commanded men. In the new testament era the "Lords day" was not the sabbath but rather sunday because it was on sunday Jesus rose from the dead. I am not saying that sunday is the sabbath, it is acknowledged that saturday is the jewish sabbath. So here John is saying that he received the vision on the first day of the week: sunday. When Jesus says he is" lord of the sabbath" its important to put the verse and chapter into the right context. The context is that the pharisees had turned the sabbath into an idol by adding restrictions and stipulations to it that Moses never commanded. So Jesus was rebuking them for this. Jesus was saying that as a jew you are commanded to observe the sabbath but not be a slave to it to the extent that you end up breaking other commands. Again the audience in this case is important to note when he uses the word "man". Jesus also said " so shall a MAN leave his mother and father and cleave to a wife". Does this mean that every man has to get married? Of course not because we understand the context in which this statement was said. Context, context, context. Grace and peace
@cal otwoma Beloved of God i appreciate your passion in this matter but you are mixing the truth with lies. The sabbath was first mentioned as a command 2500 years after creation (Exodus 16). Furthermore, we are told why it was given (Deuteronomy 5:15), to whom and when it was given (Nehemiah 9:14, Ezekiel 20:12) and to whom it was not given (Psalms 147: 19-20, Acts 21:25, Romans 9:4). You are making the 2 Corinthians 3:14 error not acknowledging that the Jeremiah 31: 31-33 prophecy has been fulfilled and making an idol of a day as Jesus pointed out (Mark 2:27-28). I pray you would be lead by the spirit of truth and not of the imaginations of men. Grace and peace be multiplied.
I love listening to you when you are speaking because there's wisdom and godliness in the way you put things. May God give you more Grace.
Study the word rest. It means to guard or keep safe. Our lives are caught up in the six days we work to make a living here. Work that is good for us. The seventh day sabbath reminds us of our Creator. It also reminds us to worship Him and to desire transformation back into His image. O how I love Jesus 🎶
Amen! Glory to God and we thank Him for giving Pr. Randy Skeete the clarity of His word.
Amen to that Pastor Randy, observing the Sabbath you will be bless and consecrated by obeying his commandment, He is forever bless and he is a Holy God...He is the Lord of the Sabbath..Pastor Oliver PNG..
So many childish comment don't study the history of any church, study the word of God and the Holy Spirit of God will open your eyes that you can clearly See the truth and understand it, if you are spiritually blind. The Holy Spirit is the Author if the Word of God, that why Jesus declare in John 16: 7 It is for your advantage that I must go that your helper will come, John 14:16, 26,15:26 He will pray the father to send our helper, Jesus already pray that the helper will be with us and in us, we have to study the word carefully Joshua 1:8 read it..Pastor Oliver PNG..
That is the truth, and that will never change
In civil law the "intent" often decides the outcome. In God's eyes we intend to keep the Seventh day (Saturday) holy and that has been my practice for over 7 decades; I am not changing regardless of the calender debates.
Thus says the Lord shall always be your foundation
Blessings upon you
Amen!
Nobody can Change what My God has Said!!- Nothing And No one can change His Word😊For His Word Endures forever!! Not Mans Lies!! Or Any Useless Opinions!! Doesn't Matter👍God's word Always Matters!!+ Christ Kept it and still Today and Forever👍😊
Amen - Keep telling it Preacher - Stand strong
Amen.Saturday is the Sabbath of the Lord .God bless.
Why emphasis on a day ?
Mark 12:28-34
28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?” 29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
👉 *There is no commandment greater than these*👈
Sabath is rest day, to rest is to finish, accomplish. I rest on the sabath day, but worship everyday of the week. I don't judge those who fix a day convenient to them, God's intention was to make man not forget him, observing a day does not bring salvation, trusting and accepting Jesus Christ does. I thank God through Jesus Christ am a child of God, If you are also save praise the Lord we will meet there at his feet with rejoicing that we were counted worthy to be God's children, shalom.
Defending standards and preaching the truth is not Judging. If I love stealing and the preacher preaches from the Commandments Do not steal .He's not Judging you , he's simply saying the truth . Chrst Himself spoke of this "I came not to judge the world but the words which I speak shall judge you" and as we know, the words which Christ spoke were God's words which are truth.
Colossians 2:16-17 (KJV) Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Thank you for to teacher me how can i keep the Sabbath day. 3years passed today i say is wonderfull my pastor
Mark Fox at Amazing Prophecies has a list-mostly for kids and families-50 things to do on the Sabbath. He's on UA-cam.
Amen, Sabbath is a spiritual rest
People say no one knows which is the Sabbath day yet still they no which day is Sunday. The Jews keep the same Sabbath day from Jesus time 😃
That was too short, I need more.!
Preach it Pastor Skeete... Amen 🙏🏻
Wake Up My People!!😊When will U All Get that!? I am glad I did👍
Amen loud and clear
This is why the sabbath was given:
Deuteronomy 5:15 (KJV) And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
Then what you are saying is that I should have many Gods since the first commandment also gives a reference on God savind the children of israel from the land of bondage.
Please pastor haven't you wondered yet HOW could a God that "never slumber nor sleep" REST on a certain day?...What was that very DAY? Why Jesus nor His disciples or Apostles NEVER emphasis on Saturday?
Thank you.
@hobbay Is this way the Apostle explain this REST in the book of Hebrews ?
It can only be God 🙏
To God be the Glory 🙏
The mention of the Sabbath 5 times, 5 is the number of grace. How awesome is that.
The Bible says thou shalt not murder.
I thought 5 means incomplete . Maranatha !
Sounded good until the moment the preacher said, "God rested THEN He blessed the Sabbath Day. " The Hebrew Text says AND (Ve'Shabat) the Rest/Shabbat AND Blessing took place simultaneously. We MUST not try and explain away what is written. Why would the Prophets prophecy the sanctity regarding His Sabbath Day. Much more regarding this.
Which is more crucial to our salvation, the Sabbath on Saturday or the resurrection on Sunday?
none of the above
Colossians 2:13-14 (KJV) And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
He is taking about the ceremonial laws dealing with blood and drink, this law in Deuteronomy 24 the Bible says it was against us...
@@iskaykabeya609 Yes of course. I know that will be your response every time the LAW is referenced even thought Deuteronomy 5:15, Nehemiah 9:14, Ezekiel 20: 11-12, Psalms 147:19-20, Amos 3:2, Romans 9:4, etc. say otherwise. At this point all i can do is keep you in my prayers. Grace and peace
Great keep sabbath Holy
Hallelujah.
Well said pastor
Enlightening short piece
God has given us enough evidence about his sacred Day, I don't understand why People don't get it, its one of the commandment that got me out of the Catholics church and I cant praise God enough for the truth yet its only those who love God with all their heart will understand this deep Truth
Glory to God
Sabbath was made FOR US. Not US for the Sabbath.
The end verse is loaded and most haven't even noticed.
If the Sabbath was crucial to the Gentile believers walk with God, why didn't the apostle Paul emphasise this OT command to any
Whenever love to God is mentioned in the new testament is the expression of the 10 commandments. ...and loving your neighbour as yourself..
Everybody will be judge by the 10 commandments
James 2:10-11
If the Jews are keeping the Sabbath on Saturday which day you prefer.. Every country has their constitution and bylaws to live by if you are a citizen of that country that similar to the Kingdom of God Almighty, his Commandments is the constitution of his Kingdom, if you don't want to obey because you belongs to another kingdom, disobedience God will punish..Pastor Oliver PNG
Sabbath or no Sabbath,what difference does it make to honour a day while one is immensely and drowning in sin? My view is that,God deeply longs for people to repent and accept Jesus Christ of Nazareth than to honour days,events and so forth?
How can you say "what difference" does it make when it comes to a commandment THAT GOD SAID? Whenever GOD says something IT ALWAYS MAKES A DIFFERENCE!!!
Romans 3:21-22 (KJV) But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
Hallelujah
11-23-2024. Why Sabbath is important to GOD. There has to be a day set off to be with FAMILY. GOD is all! Time a day with Him is family time. We spend time with Earth family should we also spend time with Heavenly Father?! Answer yes.
The Sabbath Day is The Lord's Day of Rest👍Not Sunday👍I Repeat!!- Sunday is Not The Lord's Day!!- Not At All!!- Period👍😄 The Lord God and Jesus Has Nothing to do with Sunday Worship!!- Nothing!!+ Never went to church on Sunday!!- Never!!- he only went to Church on The Sabbath!!- Not on Sunday!!- That's in the Bible!!
Let's hope this explanation is by revelation, because already am not convinced if the rest is from the spiritual or physical perspective, God doesn't get tired the Bible say he never sleeps no slumbers.
you can rest , with out sleeping have you never rest with out sleeping
There is only 1 Sabbath in existence which is on the seventh day. Thanks brother for putting this in the simplest form. Please elaborate since others are confused about the Sabbath in the Mosaic laws which are no longer valid since Jesus became the sacrificial lamb to save humanity.
They should have posted the ENTIRE MESSAGE and not just a small part!!!
Joshua 6.15, I don't see the Israelis resting on the seventh day.
Joshua 6:15
[15]And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
00:13 Where in the Bible does God say "This is my day"? Which version of the Bible are you using? Thank you.
NKJV
The book of Isaiah 56:2, Isaiah 58:13-14
The Bible says over and over, the Sabbath of the Lord thy God,
Even John in Revelation 1:10 he was in the spirit on the Lord's day.
Hebrews 4:4-10
This is when the sabbath command was given:
Nehemiah 9:13-14 (KJV) Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
And madest known unto them thy holy sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses thy servant:
It was given in Genesis at creation
@@danenehuntting3404 Beloved of God try again, that answer has been disproven. The Genesis account tells us what God did not what he commanded to man. Stop repeating what others have told you and let the Holy Spirit together with your brain give you discernment. At any rate the day of worship is not a salvation issue. Have you heard about the 16 essentials of the faith? The sabbath issue does not make the list. Grace and peace
Tell me ...teach me how to get into kingdom of God. Not which day....I can pray any day so long as I can please Him who created me.
He’s telling you keep his commandments! He said the Sabbath is a sign between him and his people! If you don’t have that sign or mark you have the other mark, mark of the beast!
And Easter is a pagan festival!
SDA is nothing more than hybrid pagan worship!

If it was nailed to the cross with Christ, why do police people who steal and commited adultery, this is part of the ten commandment so why removing the Sabbath, Jesus observe the Sabbath, recorded on Luke 4:16 , Dont think I have come to abolish the law but to fullfil it, not even any part of the Law will disapear untill heaven and earth will pass away..God declare 7th day in Genesis 2:2,3, John 20: 1 the first day of the week which Jesus arose. Is not wrong to worship on another day but which one that Yahweh bless and declare it Holy, when God demand us to bring or offer somethings for his glory; there is no subtittute for it, lamb and bulls and other ceremonial activity is the substitute of Jesus Christ who is the sacrificial lamb of Yahweh, infect he is the High priest of the new covenant and His Holy Spirit is the Fire for the sacrifice, I hope this comments can help you understand..Pastor Oliver PNG
Pastor what is your point of reference to show that the weekly cycle has never changed?
Jews are hard core about keeping the law. If anyone had altered the calendar since the time of Jesus to disrupt the 7 day pattern we would know by rabbinical writings.
@@derekriethmeier4366 therefore the rabbinal teaching is your point of reference? What about the change in Samoa?
Yes there are a few random exceptions like a Pacific island or two, but in most of the world Jews have been carefully keeping the Sabbath for thousands of years. If anyone doesn't believe that, the burden of proof rests on them to prove them wrong. Jewish sects will debate fine points of the law ad nauseam. If the weekly cycle changed we would have heard about it.
@@derekriethmeier4366 When you retrace the date of Christ death Nissan 14 ad31, it does not align with Friday. This shows that we are not on the same cycle. When was the first time that we were introduced to the Babylonian names for the days of the week? If we can honestly use the crucifixion of Christ to show the 7th day Sabbath it would be on a solid foundation. The actual time of Easter is imperfect and will not give an accurate result. Therefore we can no longer use Easter to prove that Saturday is the Sabbath.
Gal 1:11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
Gal 1:12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Gal 1:13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
Gal 1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
Gen 1v14 is the best point of reference that you can use to prove that Saturday is the Sabbath.
Genesis 1:14 doesn't say Saturday, it just says Shabbat. The Hebrew is much deeper and the translators chose not to translate what's there. The 6 days came forth fron the Sabbath Day. The Sabbath is also know as the Queen to the King. But, back to rhe Saturday. These Gregorian days are not parallel to the Priestly Hebraic Calendar of Genesis 1:1. Whan Messiah returns, he will balance all things even in the Heavenlies.
@@John-James888 Your point is on the side of honesty. I am saying that the lights of heaven were the original reference point to mark time, therefore the 7th day sabbath must have some connection with the lights above.
Who said 7th day is saturday? I have never seen in the bible mon, tue, wed.... Etc
So when is the Sabbath?. And which is the Lord's day? Why do you get tired on Saturday?
Friday sunset to Saturday sunset
The Lord's day is the 7th day Sabbath.
The scripture says it over and over. The Sabbath of the Lord thy God.
The time of the Passover is another good reference point to prove that Saturday is the Sabbath. Christ was crucified on the 14th day of Nissan and the sabbath came after. Easter is a little inaccurate to be used as a reference point since it comes every first Sunday after the Passover date when Christ was crucified- the first Sunday after the Passover full moon. An inaccurate reference point will give the wrong result for the Sabbath day. The Catholic church understand the biblical timing but they made the change of times. The calculation of Easter shows that they understand biblical timing better than sda.
Amen 🙏
Does God need a 'rest'. God is Spirit, only those who live in body need rest. He just finished. I rest my case.
Pastor
was quoting the Bible. God said He rested and so He did.
Thank you for the message. But read COLOSSIANS 2:16-17
Why do so many people use this text. This text is used for the people who respect. He is saying that because he is precauting the church. Therefore saying if I respect the seventh day Sabbath this mean that I should not be judged by other people
Secondly Jesus said If you love keep my commandments ok now should I haeken to what Jesus or listen to the great apostle Paul
If you read from Col 2:11--17what Paul is teaching is --Not legalism but Christ
@@umabrijmohun6720 Legalism works hand in hand with the law. And based on the old testament, it was what guided Israelites on their way till the coming of christ (Galatians 3:24). After Jesus came he became the Lord of the Sabbath (Matthew 12:8) And our righteousness is nolonger of the law but of grace and faith. If you have time read these scriptures (Matthew 5:20-48 and Luke 18:18-23) I pray the revelation of the Holyspirit as you do so. So what Paul speaks in Colossians 2:16-17 is based upon after Christ had come on earth and ressurected and back in heaven.
@@cartergift7128 Sorry I didnt have time to complete my comment ; When we read from verse 11--17 Then we will come to this understanding Paul is saying not legalism but Christ ,he taught the gentile believers (also Christians today )to resist the Jewish believers Christians who were bringing them into bondage by telling them to follow Jewish dietary laws,Jewish Sabbaths (monthly and weekly )and feast days bcuz they are no longer obligated to keep them verse (17)Which are a shadow of things to come but the substance is of Christ
If you cross reference Col 2:16 with Lev 23:1--3 ,Moses to whom the Law was given,says the 7th day Sabbath is a feast day
Now the Lord said to Moses
"Speak to the children of Israel and say to them The feast of Lord which you shall proclaim to be a Holy convocation ,These are my feast
Six days work shall be done but the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest,a holy convocation,you shall do not work on it ,It is the Sabbath of the Lord
For Christians under new covenant sabbath is not a day but it is embodied in Christ Heb 4:4--11,Matt 11:28--29
I worship every day not just on Sunday. If you are only 'worshipping' on Saturday is it true worship?
I worship everyday as well but what many people fail to realize is that everyday is not the sabbath day, Saturday was set aside to devote wholly to God he gave us 6 working days to do what we want but on the 7th day which is the sabbath it is to be devoted to him. So it’s not only on a Saturday we are suppose to worship but that Saturday is unlike any other day it was blessed and sanctified hallowed and set apart for us.
It is no evil to worship God in any day. But the sabbath, He commands ,must be dedicated to Him and only Him if you work on sabbath you transgress aagainst the Law of God . And remember that in a Christian life we are to put away all our opinions and follow what God said . It's never a matter of debate it's a matter of the truth which was thousands of years ago and remains as it is now despite of man's changing nature, the truth still stands accept it or not is your personal choice; The seventh day is the sabbath It was blessed, sanctified and set aside by God to be His Holy day in it we shall do no work but consecrate ourselves to God and His devine service. Six days He gave us to do all our work but The seventh is His and that does not change . Even if majority of the world observes Sunday, the first day of the week as the sabbath, that does not change the truth, written in God's Holy word. God Himself Led us by example in its observance yet we , despite knowing the truth, still do it differently because we found our parents doing it and many as a tradition . Christ Himself Observed the sabbath what more evidence stronger than this does the world need to believe in His word ;the truth . Christ Said " In vain they worship me,teaching as doctrines the commandments of Men " Let this be an eye opener In your life.
@cal otwoma Beloved lets put things into the correct context. The sabbath was first given to the Jews (Exodus 16:23)and the Jews only (Nehemiah 9:14; psalms 147: 19-20; Ezekiel 20:12; Romans 9:4) by the hand of moses (Nehemiah 9:14). Was moses alive at the beginning of creation? The sabbath observation was to put the Israelites in remembrance of the rest God gave them from their slave labour in Egypt (Deuteronomy 5:15). Now the people of God both Jew and gentile are no longer under the ordinances of the mosaic law or commanded to follow it, but under the law of Christ (Genesis 49:10; Jeremiah 31: 31-33; Romans 10:4; Hebrews 7:11-12). If someone chooses to celebrate the sabbath thats fine and if someone chooses to not celebrate the sabbath that is fine to (Romans 14: 5-6; Colossians 2:16). The ordinances of the mosaic law was a shadow of things to come not the things themself. And he has come: Jesus Christ. " Being justified by faith we have peace with God". Grace mercy and peace.

KJV Hebrews 4
4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.
8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
I am the Lord I changed not.
You are right about Sunday being the Lord's day... and SDA live as though Sundays have no significance. From my understanding, there should be no preaching or man teaching his interpretation of the scriotures on God's Holy Sabbath. That they should only be read. Man is sinful and prone to error. Increases chance to teach in error which is in complete contradiction of the word Holy. This is why they described Jesus's teaching as one who had authority. It's because He actually came with true knowledge and explanation as if he were speaking from personal experience. No one else did that in the temples. The towns were limited with Holy scriptures so people came simply to read or hear them read.
Your Not A True Christian at all if U don't Keep the Sabbath!!
Beloved of God Genesis 20 says no such thing. I suspect you meant to say Exodus 20.
Not Genesis but exodus 20:10-11
🙏
Exodus 20 not Genesis 20
Beloved of God the historical event was not creation but rather the exodus of the israelites ( Deuteronomy 5:15, Nehemiah 9:14, Ezekiel 20: 10-13)." sabbath language" really my brother? Grace and peace
This pastor should be ask , why does he worship on a Sunday. The law is the law. And the bible correct .
Your understanding is noted but do not debate the resting day instead go yee and make people the disciples..
"......And teach them whatsoever I have commanded thee" That includes the resting day.
@@kellyochieng AMEN
It entails saying all that is pure truth, sabbath as Saturday being one
Pastor Skeete if you make a statement you need to give the Bible verse as proof. For instance you said God said the Sabbath is "His Day."But you did not give the bible verse to back up your claim!!!
A person cannot be judged for the day they choose to worship God in fellowship:
Romans 14:5-6 (KJV) One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
This however doesn't nullify the truth . God is the judge and not man He's the author of the Bible and cannot contradict Himself. His truth judges and not the preachers of His word . The sabbath was initiated back in the garden of eden with God as it's inventr and first observer not because He was tired but to give an example who am I a mortal man to go against His will The sabbath was is and always will remain The seventh day of the week blessed sanctified and set aside by God Himself . The verse Quoted above don't change that fact . It was an adress to the Jews who took pride in ceremonies and the holy days that they observed in regards to sacrifices. This made them regard the other nations and other people as inferior hence could not even shake hands with them , this was not according to God's will . His will was that after receiving the truth they would share it to the heathen nations and how can yu share the word with one whom you don't exchange greetings.?
@@calotwoma671 Beloved of God i appreciate your passion in this matter but you are mixing the truth with lies. The sabbath was first mentioned as a command 2500 years after creation (Exodus 16). Furthermore, we are told why it was given (Deuteronomy 5:15), to whom and when it was given (Nehemiah 9:14, Ezekiel 20:12) and to whom it was not given (Psalms 147: 19-20, Acts 21:25, Romans 9:4). You are making the 2 Corinthians 3:14 error not acknowledging that the Jeremiah 31: 31-33 prophecy has been fulfilled and making an idol of a day as Jesus pointed out (Mark 2:27-28). I pray you would be lead by the spirit of truth and not of the imaginations of men. Grace and peace be multiplied.
The sabbath is for all mankindas mentioned in the bible it's not for certain group of people, when one decides to become a belier you have to embrace the truth as a whole not partly. Sabath is given as a rest for all created human beings and if at all you wish not to keep it fine because its purpose is to pay allegiance to God as the creator , He did it as an example to me and I'll not be ashamed to follow his noble example. Hislaw is a whole break one of the ten you break all , it's not rocket science, christ himself lived according to the law of God and was tested in all points yet withoutsin . The coice is yours to make whose consequences you shall solely bear it is all up to you.
Thou shalt keep all my sabbaths. This means sabbath comes on the 7th day, and new moon day, and on the first and last days of the feasts of the lord, as the feast of unleavened bread, first day and last day is a sabbath unto you. That day can follow or come before the seventh, and can fall also on the seventh. So 2 sabaths back to back. Keep all his sabbaths brethren.
Dear brother Randy; For Adam, God's Sabbath had to be the 7th Millennium. "In the day you eat you die"; 930 years old.(See 2 Peter 3.) Please check this out, We keep 4 Sabbath's each Month to show we believe this wonderful truth. shalom.
How can God call Sabbath the 7th day , when he knew that no one will ever lived for 7000 years to keep it.?
You sound like a Jehovah's witnesses who believe that the 6 days of creation was 6000 years.
Jesus teaches in the synagogue on the sabbath day . He observe the sabbath and keep it holy. This is deceiving people .
Jesus healed on the Sabbath and his disciple broke wheatears and ate in the Sabbath , one reason he was killed was he works on the Sabbath he did not obey the law of Moses. Even when he had told them that He was greater than Moses. That made the Jews mad against him. The Jews had to go to the temple to worship and to the synagogue to be taught and to learn the Tora. The Christian need not go to the temple in Jerusalem because God does not live there, it was destroyed , one reason they worshiped ( idolised) the temple rather than worship God. But through Christ Jesus our bodies are made into temples to worship God anywhere anytime since we live and move in our bodies.
@@maranathaafrica It is very significant that after creation He (Yhwh) rested on the 7th day and after redemption He also rested on the 7th day.
@@maranathaafrica you sound stupid, where in the Bible or in the old testament people were forbidden to pray over the sick on the Sabbath day???
Remember the Pharisees added their own traditions on God's holy day.. don't confuse the two.
There's difference between God's law ( 10 commandments )
And Moses's Law written in a book.
10 commandments were written in two tables of stone by the finger of God.
Go study the difference between God's law and Moses's law.
Ceremonial Sabbaths or annual Sabbaths and weekly 7th day Sabbath.
Then you can argue
@@iskaykabeya609 Yes I could be, didn't they want kill Jesus because he healed on the Sabbath. He even ask one to take his bed and go in a Sabbath. Don't we have Pharisees even today.?
Anytime time a person quotes from a false prophet/teacher (Ellen G. White) to strengthen their point, its always a cause for concern. Please pray for discernment.
Beloved of God the Almighty does not need rest so you are in error to use the genesis account to justify your heresy. " sabbath day language" really my brother? 2 Corinthians 3:14 error continues to this day. Grace and peace
Jubilees 2:30-32, and pay ATTENTION to verse 31. The Israelites are the ONLY people sanctified to keep the Sabbath day HOLY. The rest of the people are NOT sanctified to do that. The Israelites, who are sanctified to keep it but do not keep it because they are into this Sunday worshipping thing are committing an abomination. I am talking here about the real descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and NOT the fake ones. Shalom.
@wilhomatthews matthews The word of God says that "The sabbath was made for man" Jesus used the term "man" in the generic sense referring to mankind (Mark 2:1-2 KJV). The sabbath was instituted at creation (Genesis 2:1-2 KJV), "there were no Jews in the world for at least 2,000 years after creation". Be blessed!
@@lisajones496.... and it was kept in heaven until Israel came into being and after Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who were CHOSEN by Yahuah, the children of Israel were sanctified to keep the Sabbath day HOLY. Even Yahusha HaMashiach kept the Sabbath and NOT ONCE did he ever say the Sabbath should be abolished during his time or after his death. That doctrine came at the time of christianity and mostly enforced during the Black Hebrew Inquisition, trying to force the Hebrew Israelites to abandon the Torah. Those with non human genes in their DNA can keep it or disregard it together with the heathens it makes no difference, but as for the Israelites, that's an abomination from what ever angle you view it. The non Israelite humans that get grafted into Israel are under obligation to keep the Sabbath day HOLY, and there are no two ways about it. We worship Him in His terms and conditions only and we don't tell Him how we will worship Him. Any deviation from that is from Satan the devil. We can try to philosophise this and use the theological knowledge about it, but it will NOT change anything. The serpent seed can continue to worship their forefathers like the serpent and the Fallen Angels as their gods, being joined in that by the ungrafted heathens, that doesn't mean a thing to us. I only feel sorry for the Israelite brothers and sisters who are being misled into Satan worshipping thinking that they are worshipping Yahuah The Most High Elohim of Israel their forefathers. Shalom.
@@wilhomatthewsmatthews8990 my brother I pray for the day when we will stop all this debating and truly get to know Jesus, the one who gave his life for us all, the one who is no respecter of persons, the ground is leveled at the cross, all are welcomed. “As we meditate upon the perfections of the savior, we shall desire to be wholly transformed and renewed in the image of his purity. There will be a hungering and thirsting of soul to become like him whom we adore. The more our thoughts are upon Christ, the more we shall speak of him to others and represent him to the world”. Gods’ blessings to you
@@lisajones496 "ye serpents, generation of vipers, how can you escape the damnation of hell"; remember that? He was talking to the ones that literally had the non human genes in their DNA. Today that is played down like it was symbolic to cover up and camouflage the real serpent seed. That serpent seed is the one that is holding the Hebrew Scriptures in one hand while they hold and advance the Christian doctrines inspired by their father Satan the devil and the father of all lies in the other hand. They know how to transform themselves into the ministers of righteousness and are misleading millions of Hebrew Israelites. Shalom.
@@wilhomatthewsmatthews8990 “Every one of us needs to have a deep insight into the teachings of the Word of God. Our minds must be prepared to stand every test and resist every temptation, whether from without or from within. We must know why we believe as we do, why we are on the Lord’s side. The truth must keep watch in our hearts, ready to sound an alarm and summon us to action against every foe. The power of darkness will open their batteries upon us; and all who are indifferent and careless, who have set their affections on their earthly treasure, and have not cared to understand God’s dealings with his people will be ready victims. No power but a knowledge of the truth as it is in Jesus will ever make us steadfast; but with this, one may chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight.” This will be my last response to you; however, I will continue praying for you. God bless!
Hmmm... a command that is so important but yet none of the new testament writers mentioned it.
There's nothing wrong with the Sabbath absolutely nothing wrong .. but the Sabbath was made for the Jews only .. if U were a Jew living in Jerusalem then Saturday 2000 years ago .. U would go into the church on Saturday .. but the world 🌎 is bigger .. now .. when it's Saturday here in Australia 🇦🇺... then in a America it will be Friday along with the other countries .. will be different .. but if U observe a Sabbath day in any country tell me IS IT A SIN OR CAN we LOSE our SALVATION .. because we are not observing a Sabbath day 🤔 if U say yes .. then your adding work's to salvation .. meaning that U Christ Jesus death on the cross is by what we are all saved by .. for we are all saved by grace through Christ faith in Christ.. work's or anything we do is not equal for you can't add something or any works that we do .. for eternal life and the cross .. we are only SAVED through our faith in Christ ... U can still observe a Sabbath day and still have by faith in Christ Jesus .. but what U do is not equal to what Christ Jesus did for us on the cross .. by shedding his blood . It's not equal. U can still do good works and if U decide to observe a Sabbath day or any other day like the Jews of old did .. then do it unto the Lord ♥️ for Ellen g white thought within her self for every one to observe a Sabbath and everyone just followed her beliefs concerning a Sabbath day .. it's all faith in Christ Jesus alone and that's what saves us .. for by grace you have been saved through faith in Christ Jesus .. I'll tell a secret when the spirit of God is poured out in the last days as the prophet Joel says then you'll understand because the spirit of God will reveal to his people he's your true teacher .. not Ellen g white 🙏🌎🇦🇺🤔
We were not there when God was blessing the day so don't judge pastor
We weren't there when God created Adam, yet there he was. What's your point, and what does "judging" have to do with anything? Why is the non-believer's response always, "Don't judge…."?
Isaiah 66:22-23 (In speaking about heaven) And it shall come to pass that from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship me, saith the Lord.
This means the Sabbath will continue in heaven.
Matt 5:19 Whosoever shall break the least of these commandments, and shall teach them so, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven.
Matt 28:20 Go ye therefore…teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.
Acts 15:21 For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.
Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and have the faith of Jesus.
Most of these references are from the New Testament-where's the judging?
Why is the 4th commandment the only one that begins with, "Remember"?
English is not part of you when you use this word (judge ) read books
We didn't have to be there. It is written
Christianity is a religion by faith.
You can also say that you were not there during creation so you won't eat because food was created .
Beloved of God why are you misleading the flock. God does not need to rest. Therefore rest in this context refers to the end of the creation work. For six days God added the act of creation to his program. On the seventh he returned to his regular program of being God. The event that signifies the sabbath command is not creation but rather the exodus of the israelites from egypt because God gave them rest from their labor as slaves in egypt (Deuteronomy 5:15). When they observed the sabbath they remembered that they serve a God that can deliver them from their enemies.
l beg to differ on this point. If we look at both Exodus 20:8-11 and Deuteronomy 5:12-15, it is the same God who gave both commandments, which are not 2 different commandments, but one. They only bring out different points of emphasis that the Lord wanted us to understand. Secondarily, the creation came before sin and the need for God to deliver His people, the Israelites out of Egyptian bondage came afterwards. Basically, showing that God is our Creator as well as, our Savior.
Additionally, If we carefully compare both Scriptures as mentioned earlier, the reason God reminds us to keep the Sabbath Holy, is because it is first of all His day. He says, “ “If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord,...” ( Isaiah 58:13). “For the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath day” (Matthew 12:8). Further, John said, “I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet” (Revelation 1:10).n
Next, He is the Lord of it (Mark 2:27 ). Finally, the Lord says, “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.”(Exodus 20:8). Why or because, “For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is,...” (Exodus20:11). He says, “Six days shalt thou do all thy work:” (Deuteronomy 5:13). “...therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day.” (Deuteronomy 5:15). My prayer is that the Lord will give us His grace to accept and walk in His truth. May He strengthen, settle and establish all who believe and put their trust in Him. May the Holy Spirit give peace and unity in Christ Jesus to all the saints.

@@kingdomtruth7773 Beloved of God thanks for taking the time to respond. Unfortunately i see you have cherry picked verses and sections of verses and combinations of sections to support your false narrative. Inaddition, you have ignored the pretext and context of these verses. In every instances where the sabbath was commanded in the old and new testament the audience/recipients were the israelites. The simple reason is that the israelites were the only people group given the sabbath (psalms 147: 19-20, romans 9:4). This fact is further reiterated in Nehemiah 9:14, and Ezekiel 20: 10-12. It is true that an association is made between creation and the sabbath observation but so is the exodus. So which one is it? The sabbath command first appears in exodus and not in genesis. In genesis we are told what God did not what he commanded men. In the new testament era the "Lords day" was not the sabbath but rather sunday because it was on sunday Jesus rose from the dead. I am not saying that sunday is the sabbath, it is acknowledged that saturday is the jewish sabbath. So here John is saying that he received the vision on the first day of the week: sunday. When Jesus says he is" lord of the sabbath" its important to put the verse and chapter into the right context. The context is that the pharisees had turned the sabbath into an idol by adding restrictions and stipulations to it that Moses never commanded. So Jesus was rebuking them for this. Jesus was saying that as a jew you are commanded to observe the sabbath but not be a slave to it to the extent that you end up breaking other commands. Again the audience in this case is important to note when he uses the word "man". Jesus also said " so shall a MAN leave his mother and father and cleave to a wife". Does this mean that every man has to get married? Of course not because we understand the context in which this statement was said. Context, context, context. Grace and peace
