Sister Ellen White spoke of you over 100 years ago,,, let's examine what she said:

"The wicked will be distinguished by their efforts to tear down the Creators memorial and exalt the institution of Rome."

Don't you have a thread you started that glorifies Sunday? Yes,, you surely do.... lol
1 Cor. 15:14
New American Standard Bible
and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is vain.

I've heard this slant. I just don't buy it because, yes, the Israelites were brought out of Egypt, but their treasure has now been dispersed to the world of the Gentiles. Their treasure contains the 10 commandments of God. Those are basic. Christ enforced them by putting His stamp of approval on them repeatedly in the New Testament, and He was not only speaking to the Jews, He was fully aware that the entire world would be reading His words thousands of years after He spoke them. The entire plan of God was given to the whole of humanity. Scriptures say the commandments tell us what sin is. That will never change. Besides, we are now, as the body of Christ, the New Israel.
Jesus doesn't agree with that assessment.

Luke 10:25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

Jesus only affirmed parts of the Law that are not in the Ten Commandments, Sabbath wasn't worth mentioning.

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

Lev 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.

UMM But if one says they follow the Sabbath laws doesn't that mean one is suppose to WORK SIX days a week and not five?
Do you all get up on Sunday and go to work or do you all take that day off too?
:confused:
If one follows Sabbath laws then they should seek guidance from their Rabbi.

Christians work every day:

2 Tim 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

i think bookends is trying to say something like...'the wicked will be distinguished by their efforts to tear down the memorial to the savior's resurrection'

What difference does it make? Does God have a Commandment about it?
You fail to see the meaning behind the Sabbath.

You say "what difference does it make", according to Paul, through the inspiration of the HS, it makes ALL the difference.

Sir,, God gave us 10 commandments,, the 4th one concerns His Sabbath,, which is today,, the 7th day..

You go ahead, and do whatever you desire..

I believe in God and I believe in keeping His Commandments..

If you will excuse me,, I'm going to get ready for Worship services.

UMMM But by being online aren't you causing someone else to sin because they have to work to provide the services that you are using so they can not "observe the Sabbath" because they are having to work to provide the very service you are using? (IE the people at the internet provider,the electric company,the phone company etc)

Mr. Bookends,,,,, read the 4th commandment in Exodus 20:8....... If you can find where it says no typing on a computer keyboard on the 7th Day..then I will abrubtly stop and repent.

So,, go read the 4th commandment,, and see if the words "keyboard" or 'typing" appear.... if they don't,, your accusations are unfounded and frivolous.

How stupid can you be?
This is the result of Sabbath keeping.

James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

No,, I'm not.

Do you do any reasoning? Does God expect all sick people in hospitals to have nobody caring for them on Sabbath....

Do you expect God desires your house burn down on sabbath,, with no fireman to help you?

Do you think God desires every country to relax their Military on Sabbath, that they can easily be attacked?

Do you reason these things with a sound mind?

Do you suppose God would have His creation freeze in the winter lest they sin and turn on a furnace...


If you have a medical emergency,, Does God command that your loved one do without care on Sabbath?

Do you have any sense?

these are all appeals to personal opinion...'do you expect'...'do you think'...'do you suppose'...

since you are so insistent that your views on the sabbath are biblical...you should post scripture showing where God gives each of the groups of people you mention an exemption from sabbath keeping...

UMM Those are all emergencies and care giving which God never said was wrong,but I fail to see how a goody that is neither a need or an emergency is even in the same boat. Being on the internet is not a need but a want.

God bless you. I'll skip Sabbath and follow Christ today, just like the other six days of the week.

Luke 9:23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
