NATIONAL AND WORLD SUNDAY LAWS
We are really discussing two types of Sunday laws. The first has been examined above as "Blue Laws". These laws only require the cessation of normal business activity on Sunday. A second type, with its roots in the early-century Sunday laws, will ultimately make its appearance on the social scene once again. We spoke of this type briefly earlier in this page, when we talked about

Constantine's contribution to state-enforced worship. This type of Sunday law actually enforces Sunday-sacredness. Sunday laws in this sense require Sunday to be kept holy, not only in the "blue law" sense, but in the sense that God must be worshiped on that day.|4|
Although many people cannot imagine such a law ever finding popularity in the United States of America, it has been prophesied and will indeed come to pass through out the whole world

Those who doubt should consider history, then, they should imagine to what lengths people will go when they feel threatened. Just let a major economic collapse and/or devastating drought/famine hit the US and the world at large, then listen while the "new right" religious conservatives state that this is all "God's judgment upon us," and you will have the perfect climate for radical and sweeping legislation to "make us good."

[h=3]Isaiah 24:4-6[/h]King James Version (KJV)

4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.
5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.


This issue will become first a United States national, then a world test of loyalty. Before Christ comes again, He will have a group of people who would rather die than to disobey Him.Sabbath keepers

There will be another, far larger, Sunday Keepers group who would rather disobey Him than to die. And those will be the choices before it's all over here on planet Earth.

After all the scriptures that testify to keeping the commandments as the fruit of our faith, you stoop down to slanderous accusations. Really? I ask God to forgive you, whether you do it with malice or ignorance.

Scripture says nothing about the fruit of our faith being the keeping of laws. That's a man-made myth. The fruit of our faith is love, joy, peace, righteous works, acts of kindness, etc.

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self control. Against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23

The fruit of the spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth. Ephesians 5:9​

Another word that Christians sometimes confuse with works is obedience. If I am doing what God has asked me to do by obeying Him, is that works?

Look at this most important verse;​
Hebrews 5:9 "And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;"

Acts 5:29Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

Acts 5:32And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.

Romans 6:16Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

Sorry, I can't find trinity, rapture or the Word Bible in all the scriptures, but that does not negate our English speaking minds of understanding.

I think you like mind games as evidence of your objections.

Sincerely, not a Sabbath idolator but an obedient child. I like the "house rules" of the One true God.

The body of Christ is freed from the law of sin and death. How? By death. We have died to sin and are raised up in God through Yeshua.

Led then by Holy Spirit. Like in Acts.

Acts should be ongoing.

Your problem is that you can only conceive of obedience in terms of following the letters of the law of Moses. GOD said to obey his voice. GOD's voice is living and not static letters engraved in stone or written in a book. GOD also said that after Moses he would send a prophet speaking in his name. Jesus didn't give 10 commandments; he gave two - love GOD and love mankind. He is the one we are to listen to and obey.

The words of God are written in a book and it is also the voice of God :)

If we love others as He has first loved us...it is an all encompassing forgiving love.

I find this absent in a lot of members.

I didn't mean members here. Members of the body of Christ. Thought I better clarify.

honestly we know when we are sealed when we die to the world not by trying but naturally we just die to the world and no longer can find ourselves living in sin that's how we know we receive the holy spirit also, and to the precept questions im not too sure about it

Those such as yourself who go against the decree out of Jerusalem that was confirmed by the Holy Spirit are breaking God’s commandments just as the rebellious Pharisee sect at the time who were under Rome’s (the beast’s) authority and were sent to infiltrate the early assemblies under the guise of being true followers of Christ in order to create divisions. The Sunday vs Saturday and the grace vs. law are the same tactics of polarization deployed by the same beast to sustain division among those seeking truth. You are part of that same old apparatus of the beast working to carry out that same operation under the same cover.

All those love based works and ideals are the same thing as (properly) keeping the law.
Jesus took all those details and lumped it all up into "love as I have loved" to try and make it simple.
But, look at the world and see what we did with that.

If it brings you to tears on your pillow in prayer, you might get sealed.

the seal of god or the token of god is the holy spirit in a born again believer... this is what it means to be the very image of our lord jesus christ...

and this is the same prayer our lord jesus christ prayed for the sons and daughters of god to be made into this very image in the book of john.

we see this in matthew with the parable of the ten virgins... and we shall know who has the holy spirit and who doesn't.

this is stated by god, our lord jesus christ, and the prophets throughout the ages... god's holy word is divine perfection.
