Where is the Sabbath mentioned as regard Gentiles???
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.
21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
Are you really preaching that Gentiles were required to make sure they didn't eat meats from strangled animals as taught in the Law and Prophets, and they were to go to the Scribes to be taught of Moses exactly as Jesus instructed His Apostles to do in Matt. 23, but they were not to obey the 10 Commandments?
Why would you even attempt to preach such things if it were not to defend the teaching of Constantine and the Mainstream tradition of rejecting God's Sabbath and creating your own? Where is it written even once that we are to reject God's Commandments and create our own.
If you call the New Testament 'man made' that is up to you. Personally I consider Jesus and the Apostles spoke from God
You know that statement is baseless and false. You also know Jesus and His Disciples observed both God's Sabbaths and His Holy Days. You know Jesus created the Sabbath before He became a man, It was created by Him and for Him, and He also said it was created for me. He is truly Lord of God's Sabbath". This is why His Apostles observed it throughout there whole lives.
NOWHERE in the New Testament is observance of the Sabbath enjoined.
Nowhere in the Bible does it say you are Holy enough to decide which of God's Ten Commandments you should keep and which ones you can reject. Just because you fancy yourself a judge of God's Commandments, doesn't mean you are the judge of God's Commandments.
you may believe what you want. Abraham came four hundred years BEFORE there ever was a Sabbath Law and before the commandments you speak of. You follow Moses, I will follow Abraham and Jesus Christ,
Gen. 2:
2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3 And God blessed the seventh day,
and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
You are free to preach that Adam, Abel, Noah and Abraham didn't know of God's creation if you want. That they didn't have God's Law if you want.
Gen. 26:
4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
You are free to preach that God's Law didn't include His Sabbath that He Sanctified if you want.
But just like the scriptures exposed the Mainstream Preachers of Christ's time as false, so also do the scriptures expose your teaching as false.
Jesus, before He became flesh and blood, inspired Jeremiah to warn me of exactly this very thing.
Jeremiah 6:
13 For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one
is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. (Like saying God didn't have a Sabbath until Moses)
14 They have healed also the hurt
of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when
there is no peace.
(You are saved, don't worry about breaking God's Commandments by your own doctrines and traditions)
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?
nay,
they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush:
(They created images of God in the likeness of a long haired men's hair shampoo model, rejected God's Sabbaths and holy days and created their own "Feasts unto the Lord")
therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.
Matt. 7:
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me,
ye that work iniquity.
16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see,
and ask for the old paths,
where is the good way, and walk therein, (
As Jesus walked therein)
and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they(You) said,
We will not walk therein.
17 Also I set watchmen(prophets and Disciples) over you,
saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said,
We will not hearken.
And so the Word's of Christ proven once again as perfect. "If they hear not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead."
