Neh 13:15-17
15 In those days I saw in Judah some treading wine presses on the Sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and lading asses; as also wine, grapes, and figs, and all manner of burdens, which they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day: and I testified against them in the day wherein THEY SOLD VICTUALS.
16 There dwelt men of Tyre also therein which brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the Sabbath to the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
So the children of Israel were obviously buying wares and food from them.
17 Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said to them, what evil thing is this that you do, AND PROFANE THE SABBATH DAY?
This is pretty straight forward. Refute it however you would like.
Isaiah recorded your Creator saying that “if” you return to Him and His Sabbaths, “then” He will deliver you.
If you think that returning to them does not mean that you also need to refrain from buying and selling, this is your choice.
I also suggest that you do not simply return to the do’s and the don’ts because it you do, then you will not be delighting in the Sabbaths and delighting in them is also a requirement.
Amos records some starch warnings for those of you who will return to His ways with “an attitude”.
And this is a prophesy for right now as well;
