You silly Sabbath Observers............

That's exactly what I said. I don't believe in compulsion to follow these like the ancient Jews had to. However, if someone wants to keep this day Holy I am not going to Judge them based on what the Lord did in Genesis 2. If God makes something Holy then it should be special to any believer.

CONTINUED


FOR ALL THE LAW IS FULFILLED IN ONE WORD
even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.



7Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth? 8This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you. 9A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. 10I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be. 11And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased. 12I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

13For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. 14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 15But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

16This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. 17For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. 18But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. 19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. 24And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

<< Galatians 5 >>

11And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased. 12I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

13For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. 14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 15But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

Galatians 5:3 Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.

THIS IS HOW STRONGLY PAUL FELT ABOUT THOSE TEACHING
THE CHURCH AHD TO BE SUBJECT TO THE LAW OF MOSES

BECAUSE HE KNEW OF THE DAMAGE TO THE FAITH OF CHRIST WHICH BROUGH SALVATION THEY WERE DOING
THEY WERE FALSE TEACHERS
ENEMIES OF CROSS OF CHRIST
OPPOSING GODS GRACE HE OFFERED MANKIND THROUGH THE SALVATION JESUS HAD ONE ON MANS BEHALF


I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

"new" and "renew" are interchangeable in many cases in scripture.


In this case, as scripture interprets scripture the word "new" applies as in "renew" or "restore."

Definitions:

Reestablish on a new, usually improved, basis or make new or like new; "We renewed our friendship after a hiatus of twenty years"; "They renewed their membership"

To renovate; to restore to a former state, or to a good state, after decay or depravation; to rebuild; to repair. Asa renewed the altar of the Lord. 2Chron. 15


As you can see by the following scriptures, these commandments were given in the OT, in the NT they were reestablished.

Deuteronomy 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

Leviticus 19:18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.

Leviticus 19:34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

. 3But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised: 4And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: 5To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you. 6But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me: 7But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter; 8(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:) 9And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision. 10Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.

11But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. 12For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. 13And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation. 14But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

15We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, 16Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. 17But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid. 18For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. 19For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God. 20I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

THIS IS A KEY THING TO UNDERSTAND IN REGARD TO THSE QUESTIONS

12For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. 13And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.



14But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?


15We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, 16Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

No, Paul felt very strongly about people believing that their works saved them. It is by faith in Christ and obedience, not of works lest any man should boast.

Yet, faith without works is dead.

2 Peter 3:15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
2 Peter 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

AND HERE


I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews

PETER WAS LVING NOT BY THE LAW
BUT BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST

But changed when some Jews spied in and were preaching wrongly

"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it." Exodus 20:8-11

th work is only to love

THE ONLY THING THAT COUNTS IS FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF GOD

EXPRESSING ITSELF BY LOVE

THAT IS FAITH WITH WORKS

FOR LOVE IS EXPRESSED IN HOW AND WHAT YOU DO UNTO OTHERS

the son of man is Lord of the sabbath

HE THAT BELIEVES IN THE SON HAS ENTERED INTO THAT REST.

thats an awesome piece of scripture..........

CALLING IT THE SEVENTH DAY

There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

[link to kingjbible.com]

yet Paul did give commandments.

Acts 15:28 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
Acts 15:29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

Going back further in the same chapter Paul said this:

Acts 15:19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
Acts 15:20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

If we are not under any laws, what about the law of faith?

Romans 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

And what of the perfect law of liberty?

James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

King David knew this:

Psalms 119:45 And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

YES GLORY TO GOD

HE LEAVES NOTHING TO CHANCE
BUT HAS SHOWN US ALL THINGS NECCESARY IN HIS WORD.

Most of this is a repost because the point still stands.

Anything that is said in the Bible must be related to the words of Christ Yeshua! Not just stand alone interpretations of men who are not divine. You must relate what is said by Peter and Paul to what CHRIST said. Unless you are going to say Christ was not divine...

so again I post:

You should concern yourself with what Christ himself said.

"If you love Me, you will keep My commandments."

"Don't misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose."

"'Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfil.
(Verse 18) For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.
(Verse 19) Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
(Matthew 5:17-19)."

YOU MISUNDERSTAND COMPLETLY
THE LAW IS HOLY AND THE COMMANDMENT IS GOOD
BUT THE ONLY THING THAT COUNTS IF FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST EXPRESSING ITSELF IN LOVE

YOU CAN ONLY PLEASE GOD BY FAITH
FAITH IS A GIFT
ITS NOT OF YOURSELF
IT PRODUCES GOOD IN YOU NOT OF OYURSLEF BY BUT BY CHRIST WORKING IN YOU TO DO HIS GOOD WILL AND PLEASURE

NO MAN SHALL BE JUSTIFIED BY OBSERVING THE LAW!

HERE IS THE

"THESE COMANDMENTS "

JESUS WAS REFERING TOO


19Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.


HERE IS THE

"THESE"





21Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: 22But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. 23Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; 24Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. 25Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. 26Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

27Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: 28But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. 29And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 30And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

31It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement: 32But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

33Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths: 34But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne: 35Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King. 36Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black. 37But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

38Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: 39But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also. 41And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. 42Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

43Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

HOW TO OBEY THE SABBATH SEVENTH DAY REST



1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. 2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works. 5And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest. 6Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:

7Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Jesus said the Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath...

WOW Amazing our Father made a day for us...you don't find that amazing? A whole day a gift for us made by the Father by His WORD/Jesus the Lord

And to top it off He blessed and sanctified that gift...wow

God Blessed the 7th day and sanctified it

I love the Sabbath rest it truly is a blessing and a gift.
Both to remember God's creative work through His WORD/Jesus and God's eternal gift of life in His Son/Jesus/WORD...Lamb of God that taketh away, the sins of the world.

Jesus said it is good to do good on the Sabbath, He never said it was good to break, make fun of or count as nothing something the Father Himself made for us, sanctified and blessed.


We enter His rest by the work of His Son
Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath

for our family the Sabbath is the day we spend away from the things that distract us(electronics, shopping) and spend time together and remember the Lord of the Sabbath and are very thankful to spend time together after a busy week. It is a very special day for us, and can see why Jesus said the Sabbath was made for man.
