In the fourth commandment of the ten commandments, GOD says REMEMBER THE SABBATH AND KEEP IT HOLY, My question is, what day is the actual day of the sabbath. The bible says GOD created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th... and we are also to use that day as the sabbath. Now it is said since the aposile gathered on the first day(after CHRIST death and resurection) we now worship the sabbath on the first day. Should I beleive in what the Apostles did and worship on a first-day sabbath or should I listen to what the word of GOD says in the old trstement? PLEASE help me because I want to do whay's right. 1rst day sabbath or 7th day sabbath and please explain to me why.
The Grace of God and The Law - In Reply on Luke 4 - 2 years ago
There is Law, and there is Grace. Jesus was criticized for picking fruit on the Sabbath, or praying for the sick.
God made it more simple than some people realize. Whichever day your work week STARTS is your "Monday." Most people in the USA work a 5 day week, but if yours is different; you can choose your DAY OF REST. Which usually involves attending Church. Lunch can involve eating and discussing the sermon that morning. Make your own comments on it like we do here. Try not to delegate that. Everyone should should be able to comment upon the scriptures.
God is omnipresent so he's in all churches no matter what day or what time.
In Genesis it was work 6 days and then Sabbath: the Day of Rest. (Church day).
In our modern culture we work 5 days and play 2 days. Church may be optional in some families. :(
More important is to find a church you feel welcomed in; hear the Word of God in sermon; praises and worship; tithes; fellowship after.
Even better, get involved with some kind of "ministry" as a member of Christ's Body. The men usually have "breakfast meetings" some set day.
God is saying for us to Rest. Time to study the Bible. Pray for family or friends. Be kind to your wife.
I wish people would realize the Ten Commandments originated in the time of Moses. God covenanted with the children of Israel. It was in force until Jesus began his ministry. He reaffirmed the commandments in Matthew 5. Matthew 22:36-40. I think the Pharisees hated Jesus because he wasn't as strict as they. Loving each other and our neighbors is hard, for some people.
Consider these things and choose God. What did He say? How did Jesus respond? We're following Jesus, as his disciples in 2021. There is NOW no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
He's not going to gig us for what day we go to Church. We are under Grace. Period.
Being Flexible and Faithful to God too - In Reply on Luke 4 - 2 years ago
Sometimes we make it harder to understand. Many voices. Just as people nowadays may work in shifts.
God just desires we set aside the 7th day to spend with Him. Ideally at Church with other believers in a corporate gathering, so we can worship, pray for the sick and those with needs.
Some churches operate every day of the week in different capacities and ministries to the community around them. Sabbath means, Rest.
(from Hebrew shavat, "TO REST") is observed In Abrahamic religions, the Sabbath (/sb/) or Shabbat (Hebrew: ) is a day set aside for rest and worship.
If you are required to work on Sundays:
>>>The case does not say that Christians have no legal protection against having to work on Sundays. They have the same rights as any other religious group not to be discriminated against.
The Tribunal itself said in an opening paragraph:
"It is [not open to an employer] to require staff to work on Sunday and thereby cause disadvantage to those who are Christian "unless the employer can show the requirement is objectively justified." Just ask if your schedule can be changed, to be off on Sundays. Don't hire on and then demand a different schedule, if None is available. You'll lose legally if you push it.
God is way more flexible than people. He just wants us to rest in his love and spend time with Him (Bible). Attending Church is how we learn and grow up in Christ. However, if we do not practice "Family Altar Time with our children, and replace God with football games; they will not follow God willingly."
It's different for each individual. We are not under the Law; but under Grace. The 7th day after your work week started, is your Sabbath day. Google churches in your area and their meeting schedules. If you have split work schedules, you may have to accommodate to church meeting times.
It's to our advantage to attend Church when the church meets Corporately. If your family needs much prayer, for these crazy days we're living.
Reading your comment it seems you already know that. You have liberty
So go on and rest!!
Romans 14:4-5. Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. LET EVERY MAN BE FULLY PERSUADED IN HIS OWN MIND.
Colossians 2:14-17. Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
