I really just sit and wonder if God is looking at this debate in favor or if he is saddened that those who proclaim Christ can argue bout such a topic. The more I am exposed to arguments like this the more I am starting to wonder.... If my entire salvation and hope to enter the Kingdom of Heaven is dependent on following a Sabbath day, and if this is in fact the pivotal point of our Faith, and God in Heaven would deny me that grace for celebrating a day of Worship on a Sunday... I'm not so sure if I'm cut out for this....
I can see why you have athiests, why you have people who hate religion - its because of you people who cannot look past all these things and focus on the Cross and Jesus' defeat over death so we can be saved.
If God is true to his word saying that he wishes for ALL of mankind to be saved, enforcing the day of Sabbath after Christ had come to fulfill the law makes no sense, because surely He knows above all... that only a handful will be saved. Perhaps that is his plan after all... so everyone who worships on a Sunday, I suppose would be lost, because we fail to abide by that 1 law.
That's a nail in my coffin, thank you for your input on this forum post. It was most enlightening.
Thankfully.... I have Galatians 3
The Law Brings a Curse
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written,“Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.”[e] 11 But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God isevident, for “the just shall live by faith.”[f] 12 Yet the law is not of faith, but “the man who does them shall live by them.”[g]
13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”[h]), 14 that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
The Changeless Promise
15 Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man’s covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it. 16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,”[i] who is Christ. 17 And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ,[j] that it should make the promise of no effect. 18 For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
Purpose of the Law
19 What purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was appointed through angels by the hand of a mediator. 20 Now a mediator does not mediate for one only, but God is one.
21 Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law.22 But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
