there is not Scripture in the N.T. that says " believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and keep the Sabbath ( gentiles were never under the law anyway ). that is what you and others are saying. not the Word.
Hello friend,
Nice to see you again. You need to look a little deeper....................
JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD. IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE GOD'S WORD YOU DO NOT BELIEVE IN JESUS
Matthew 4
4, But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but
BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.
John 17
17, Sanctify them through thy truth: THY WORD IS TRUTH.
Psalms 119
11, YOUR WORD have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
2 Peter 1
4, Whereby are given unto us
exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
John 8
31,Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him,
If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32, And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33, They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how say you, Ye shall be made free?
34, Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever commits sin is the servant of sin.
35, And the servant abides not in the house for ever: but the Son abides ever.
36, If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
John 1
1, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2, The same was in the beginning with God.
3, All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4, In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5, And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6, There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7, The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8, He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9, That was the true Light, which lights every man that cometh into the world.
10, He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11, He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12, But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13, Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14, AND THE WORD BECOME FLESH AND DWELT AMONG US, AND WE BEHELD HIS GLORY, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
1Peter 1:23
Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which lives and abides for ever.
John 14
6, Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, THE TRUTH, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Matthew 1
21, And she shall bring forth a son, and
thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
John 3
16, For God so LOVED the world that he gave his only begotten son that
WHOSOEVER BELIEVES on HIM SHOULD HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE
Let's put it all together...........
We are to
LIVE by EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUT H OF GOD (Matthew 4:4); IF we
CONTINUE IN HIS WORD THEN ARE WE HIS DISCIPLES and we shall
KNOW the TRUTH and the TRUTH shall set us FRE E from SIN (John 8:31-32; 34;36). We are made
HOLY BY THE WORD and
ONLY God's Word is TRUTH (Psalms 119:172); We are BORN AGAIN by FAITH in the WORD
What is all this leading to, can you guess...............................
JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD the power of creation(John 1:1-14; Genesis chapters 1-2).
EVERLASTING LIFE IS GIVEN TO THOSE THAT BELIEVE EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD. THE NAME of JESUS means SAVIOR (Matthew 1:21). We are BORN AGAIN as we BELIEVE GOD"S WORD. JESUS meaning Saviour means that THE WORD OF GOD IS JESUS AND THE WORD OF GOD ARE ONE AND THE WORD IF GOD IS OUR SAVIOR AS WE BELIEVE IT! FAITH IS THE VICTORY!
To BELIEVE on the LORD JESUS MEANS TO LIVE BY FAITH IN EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD! IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE THE WORD OF GOD YOU DO NOT BELIEVE in JESUS because HE IS THE WORD OF GOD! JESUS IS THE WORD AND THIS IS WHAT WE ARE TO BELIEVE.
God's 4th commandment is one of the ten (
Exodus 20:8-11) and like any of the ten, if we knowingly break it when God asks us not to we stand guilty before God of committing sin (
James 2:8-12). If we do not seek him in repentance and forgiveness we are in danger of the Judgement (
Hebrews 10:26-27)
There is not one scripture in ALL of God's WORD that says God's 4th commandment is now ABOLISHED and we are now commanded to worship God on Sunday in it's place.
Sunday worship is a tradition and teaching of man that has lead many to break the commandments of God. Jesus says that if we follow the traditions of man that break the commandments of God we are not following God (Matthew 15:3-9)
Who should we follow the teachings and traditions of men or the Word of God? Who should we believe the Words of men or the Word of God?
Continuing..........
John 3
16, For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son
<the WORD> , that whosoever
believes in him <the WORD> should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17, For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him
<the WORD> might be saved.
18, He that believes on him
<the WORD> is not condemned: but he that believe not
<the WORD> is condemned already, because he
has not believed in the name
<the WORD IS SAVIOR> of the only begotten Son of God.
19, And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20, For every one that does evil hate the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21, But he that doe truth
<the WORD> cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
May God bless you as you seek Him through His Word...........
