EVERY day can be a sabbath in Jesus, now!
We can REST in Him and watch Him work on our behalf now!
As we abide in the vine, He brings forth much fruit for God!
Matthew 12:9-12
9And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
10And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him. 11And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out? 12How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
It is GOOD for us [in Christ, and Christ in and through us] to rest for a day a week, yes, for our Heavenly Father desinged us to require time away from our duties, time to refresh ourselves in Him
BUT, there's nothing saying that the law is soo ridged as to prevent us from doing good on such (put aside) days
If you adhere to a sabbath weekly, you do well for yourself.
There's nothing quite like spending time with your God to renergise.
But you can do this ANY day, ANY time.
Psalm 145:5
Of the glorious majesty of thine honor, And of thy wondrous works, will I meditate.
There is something I really appreciate about Christian sabbath days that you cannot get ANY day nor ANY time;
And that is the physical 'coming together' of the Saints, which is a good thing. For we are to edify one another in Love, bearing witness to the Life of Christ in (and hopefully through) each and every one who confesses His Name in Truth. Teaching CAN be accomplished through various [non-physical] means, but exhortation usually requires a special touch [not ALWAYS the case, but in most, I've noticed].
