Why we are not supposed to keep the Sabbath

[SabbathBlessings]

So what you are saying is that there is a time limit. Say at 491 times and the deals off?. He Don't care if you believe in Him or not. Sin to much and its over?.

Romans 8:1

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

Regardless of the above you only have so many chances to find a job that doesn't require you to work on a Sabbath.

Keep reading in Romans 8....

Rom 8:7 Because the [c]carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

If one is in Christ they would be obeying God's law, not breaking it.

There are plenty of jobs that do not require working on the Sabbath, we are told mold our lives around God's will, not have Him bend His will to accommodate ours, He will help us mold to Him, if we ask. As Jesus said, it's better to cut off a hand and enter into heaven then to sin.

Mat 5:30 And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

We can try to rationalize sinning for any of God's commandments, it a matter of doing our will or doings God's. I know when I stopped working on the Sabbath God blessed me tenfold. He promises to take care of our needs when we trust Him.

Mat 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

There can't possibly be enough Monday through Friday jobs for all Christians just isn’t going happen. No one will be condemned for not a having a job that doesn't require them to work on the Sabbath.

I have started to post a quick study on the sabbath, I will complement it and edit it over time here is the first draft, let me know if there are any errors, it is not complete there are so many things we can write about the sabbath. I am only touching a few concepts, all is based on scripture as I always do. My only bias I admit is towards the teachings of Jesus, and will always be so.

please see the link;

@BeyondET the link below as I mentioned to you.

Why we are supposed to keep the sabbath

Why we are Supposed to Keep the Sabbath

Part 1 of 5: The Sabbath in the Ten Commandments The Sabbath was established by God at creation as a sacred and sanctified day. In Genesis 2:2-3, it is written that God completed His work of creation on the seventh day, rested, and blessed it, making it holy. This act was not because God was...

The Born Again Christian does not gain Salvation by following the Ten Commandments, but rather will be convicted by the Holy Spirit to follow all the principles of The Ten Commandments. With regard to the Sabbath, Jesus is our Sabbath rest - every day of the week should be our Sabbath rest. And our Sunday or Saturday day of worship should be a celebration as opposed to a legal obligation.

Salvation is not by keeping any law, it is only by the blood of Christ through faith. We should not keep the Ten Commandments to save ourselves which we can’t, they are kept by love and faith and a result of a changed heart Rev 14:12. There is no scripture that says Jesus is the Sabbath essentially Jesus giving Himself and commandment and turning Him into the creation i.e. day/ commandment and we can ignore what the 4th commandment actually instructs Exo 20:8-11. Jesus said He is Lord of the Sabbath i.e. the Creator Exo 20:11, not the He is the Sabbath. Mat 2:28 We are told no one can edit what God wrote and God spoke Exo 31:18 Exo 32:16 as if anyone is greater than He. Best to let God be God and live by His every Word, Mat 4:4 not what was edited by man we are cautioned would happen. Dan 7:25

Hebrews 4. And yes, I just said salvation is not by the works of keeping the laws.

Hebrews 4. And yes, I just said salvation is not by the works of keeping the laws.

I have studies Hebrews extensively and no one has ever been able to produce one verse that says Jesus is the Sabbath. It should be easy like what God wrote and God spoke and said when is the Sabbath

Exo 20:10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God.

Please post the verse that the author of Hebrews defined the Sabbath in contrary to what God said, it actually reconciles with what God said Heb 4:4 Heb 4:10. Please post the verse that says Jesus is the Sabbath. Thanks

Maybe, but YHVH Created all things everywhere, and lives forever as Almighty. His Hand is not short that He cannot save those who trust Him to obey Him.

 

[Aaron112]

Rom 8:7 Because the [c]carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

Thus constant temptations daily everywhere to reject Jesus, to ignore God.

Hebrews 4. And yes, I just said salvation is not by the works of keeping the laws.

Can you show me anywhere in the entire Bible, where the phrase "works of Keeping the Law" is spoken?

Shouldn't a man study to find out what "Works" of the Law the Pharisees, who Paul was contending with, were prompting for remission of Sins?

Will you answer one question for me please. In the Law and Prophets, when a man sinned, what "works" did Moses require this man to do, before his sins were forgiven?"

I look forward to your answers.
