OLD TESTAMENT REFERENCE: "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day; wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it." (Exodus 20:8-11)

NEW TESTAMENT REFERENCES: "For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day." (Matthew 12:8; Luke 6:5) [So the Sabbath is the TRUE Lord's Day]

it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days. (Matthew 12:12)

But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day. (Matthew 24:20)

they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he (Jesus) entered into the synagogue, and taught. (Mark 1:21)

And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath. (Mark 2:27-28) [Notice: The Sabbath is NOT just for Jews, or Israelites, or Hebrews, or Semites (descendants of Shem), but FOR ALL MANKIND]

And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach (Mark 6:2)

And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day (Luke 4:16)

(Jesus) taught them on the sabbath days. (Luke 4:31)

AFTER JESUS' DEATH, HIS DISCIPLES OBSERVED THE SABBATH:

And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid. And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment." (Luke 23:55-56) [ This occured after Jesus' death obviously, which is when the false teachers claim the law was done away. They say the law was "nailed to the cross", but His disciples obviously didn't believe that, as we see here, they "rested the Sabbath day according to the commandment"]

when they (the apostles) departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day." (Acts 13:14)

And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath." (Acts 13:42) [Notice: the Gentiles (non-jews) wanted to hear the word of God on the next Sabbath. Paul DID NOT tell them, "Come back tomorrow, the first day of the week, because that's the day us Christians keep." He had them return the following SABBATH]

And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God. (Acts 13:44)

For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day. (Acts 15:21)

And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made. (Acts 16:13)

And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures. (Acts 17:2)

And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks. (Acts 18:4)

For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works. (Hebrews 4:4) [See Ephesians 5:1 where it states that we are to be imitators of God.]

There remaineth therefore a SABBATH Rest [See margin: Greek word is "Sabbatismos" which means "Sabbath-keeping"] to the people of God." (Hebrews 4:9)

For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD." (Isaiah 66:22-23) [I realize this is an OT scripture, BUT as you can clearly see here, this is dealing with the NEW heavens and earth (after Christ's return) and it states that ALL shall keep the Sabbath then.

It seems quite preposterous, that God would give the seventh day Sabbath to mankind at creation (Genesis 2:1-3), re-introduce it to Israel BEFORE Sinai - after they lost sight of it in captivity (Exodus 16:4-23; 27-29), codify it at Sinai (Exodus 20:1-17) having all His people observe it, including Christ, then change it to Sunday, just to change it back to Friday sunset - Saturday sunset.

THE SABBATH HAS NEVER CHANGED AND IS STILL TO BE OBSERVED!

I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery." (Matthew 5:32)

Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery (Matthew 19:18; Mark 10:19; Luke 18:20)

NEW TESTAMENT REFERENCES: every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." (Matthew 12:36,37)

OLD TESTAMENT REFERENCE: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbour's. (Exodus 20:17)

NEW TESTAMENT REFERENCES: And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. (Luke 12:15)

Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." (Hebrews 13:5)

...............

Yep seems like EVERONE of God's 10 Commandments are repeated in the NEW TESTAMENT.

................

God's 10 Commandments give us a KNOWLEDGE of what sin is. SIN is the breaking of God's Commandments (James 2:9-11; Romans 7:7; 1 John 3:4) Those who CONTINUE in UNREPENTANT SIN will NOT enter into the KINGDOM of HEAVEN.

................

God's 4th commandment is one of the ten (Exodus 20:8-11) 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)

Sunday worship is a tradition and teaching of man that has led 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)

There is not one scripture in all of God's Word that says that God's 4th Commandment is now ABOLISHED and we are now commanded to KEEP Sunday as a Holy day.

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?

In times of ignorance God winks at but now ,<when a KNOWLEDGE of the truth has come> calls all men everywhere to REPENT (FOLLOW) (Acts 17:30-31).

"And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath." (Acts13:42) [Notice: the Gentiles (non-jews) wanted to hear the word of God on the next Sabbath. Paul DID NOT tell them, "Come back tomorrow, the first day of the week, because that's the day us Christians keep." He had them return the following SABBATH]

"And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God." (Acts13:44)

"For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day." (Acts15:21)

"And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made." (Acts16:13)

"And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures." (Acts17:2)

"And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks." (Acts18:4)

"For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works." (Heb 4:4) [See Eph 5:1 where it states that we are to be imitators of God.]

"There remaineth therefore a SABBATH Rest [See margin: Greek word is "Sabbatismos" which means "Sabbath-keeping"] to the people of God." (Heb 4:9)

"For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD." (Isaiah 66:22,23) [I realize this is an OT scripture, BUT as you can clearly see here, this is dealing with the NEW heavens and earth (after Christ's return) and it states that ALL shall keep the Sabbath then.

It seems quite preposterous, that God would give the seventh day Sabbath to mankind at creation (Gen 2:1-3), re-introduce it to Israel BEFORE Sinai - after they lost sight of it in captivity (Ex 16:4,23,27-29), codify it at Sinai (Ex:20) having all His people observe it, including Christ, then change it to Sunday, just to change it back to Friday sunset - Saturday sunset. THE SABBATH HAS NEVER CHANGED AND IS STILL TO BE OBSERVED!]

to be continued...

The day of Christian worship is Sunday. The matter has been resolved and need not be revisited.

That the apostles spoke in the synagogues on the Jewish sabbath has no bearing on Christianity. They spoke to the Jews on the sabbath because that's the day they were gathered.

Hi HTacianas, welcome and so nice to meet you here .

* Where is the scripture that says God's 4th Commandment is Abolished and we are now commanded to keep Sunday as a Holy day?

* Where does it say that God's 4th Commandment is only for the Jews?

MARK 2:27 [27], And he said unto them, THE SABBATH WAS MADE FOR MAN [mankind; human beings], and not man for the sabbath.

Thanks for your thoughts and may God bless you as you seek him through his Word.

10. DO NOT COVET/LUST

10th Commandment OT: "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbour's." (Ex 20:17)

And yet:

1st commandment

12 Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land where you are going, or they will be a snare among you. 13 Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones and cut down their Asherah poles 14 Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. 15 “Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land; for when they prostitute themselves to their gods and sacrifice to them, they will invite you and you will eat their sacrifices. 16 And when you choose some of their daughters as wives for your sons and those daughters prostitute themselves to their gods, they will lead your sons to do the same.

2nd commandment

17 “Do not make any idols .

3rd commandment

18 “Celebrate the Festival of Unleavened Bread. For seven days eat bread made without yeast, as I commanded you. Do this at the appointed time in the month of Aviv, for in that month you came out of Egypt.

4th commandment

19 “The first offspring of every womb belongs to me, including all the firstborn males of your livestock, whether from herd or flock. 20 Redeem the firstborn donkey with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, break its neck.

5th commandment

Redeem all your firstborn sons. No one is to appear before me empty-handed.

6th commandment

21 “Six days you shall labor, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during the plowing season and harvest you must rest.

7th commandment

22 “Celebrate the Festival of Weeks with the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, and the Festival of Ingathering at the turn of the year. 23 Three times a year all your men are to appear before the Sovereign Lord, the God of Israel. 24 I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your territory, and no one will covet your land when you go up three times each year to appear before the Lord your God.

8th commandment

25 “Do not offer the blood of a sacrifice to me along with anything containing yeast, and do not let any of the sacrifice from the Passover Festival remain until morning.

9th commandment

26 “Bring the best of the firstfruits of your soil to the house of the Lord your God .

10th commandment

“Do not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.”

27 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.” 28 Moses was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights without eating bread or drinking water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant—the Ten Commandments.

Note: In the passage above all bolding and italics are mine. It is also worth remarking that this is the oldest of the three versions of the ten commandments and the only version to self identify as "the Ten Commandments".

Hi JackRT, very nice to see you here. Welcome. The scriptures you quote here are not the 10 Commandments, that were spoken and written on stone by God. You will find the 10 Commandments in Exodus 20:1-17.

May God bless you as you seek him through his Word.

The day of Christian worship was established by the Church through tradition by the authority given to the apostles by Christ in Matthew 18:19. Christians gathered on Sunday for worship beginning prior to 100 AD.

See also the authority of the apostles to "bind and loose". That authority given to the apostles has been handled down to their successors for 2000 years now.

Please Google "binding and loosing". There is a very good article on that Jewish concept at wikipedia.

Whats the difference? Just wanted to know because I didn't know that the words spoken by God recorded on stone and the 10 commandments were two different things.

Really? What do you make of
Exodus 34: 1 The LORD said to Moses, Chisel out two stone tablets like the first ones, and I will write on them the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.
and
Exodus 34:
28 Moses was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights without eating bread or drinking water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant— the Ten Commandments.

It would seem that God changed his mind between Exodus 20 and Exodus 34 and then changed it back in Deuteronomy 5

Hi salt-n-light, nice to meet you here. Good question, although please correct me if I am not understanding your question correctly. The 10 Commandments that were spoken and written by God on stone are our moral duty of LOVE to God and MAN. Their purpose is to give us a KNOWLEDGE of what SIN is if broken (Romans 3:20; 7:7; James 2:11; 1 John 3:4), but they cannot make anything perfect.

This is different to the MOSAIC laws for remission of sin as outlined in the MOSAIC BOOK of the COVENANT. These were prophetic SHADOW laws in nature pointing to Jesus as our true sacrifice for forgiveness of sin and God's plan of salvation. The purpose of these laws pointed to the NEW COVENANT and the remedy for sin found in Jesus and outlined God's plan of salvation for mankind.

Hope this helps. May God bless you as you seek him through his Word.

Hi JackRT, no problem this was a result of Moses breaking the original tables of stone when he came down from the mount the first time after seeing the Children of Israel dancing around the Golden calf (see Exodus 32:15-19). God got Moses to make some new tables of stone again and so he could write down the 10 Commandments again after Moses broke them (Exodus 34:1).

God does not change his mind in relation to his laws. If we break any one of them we commit sin (Romans 3:20; 7:7; James 2:11; 1 John 3:4).

Hope this helps.

 

[JackRT]

Hi JackRT, no problem this was a result of Moses breaking the original tables of stone when he came down from the mount the first time after seeing the Children of Israel dancing around the Golden calf (see Exodus 32:15:19). God re-made the two tables again and wrote down the 10 Commandments.

Hope this helps.

Actually, no it does not help in the least. Why did he write down a different set and yet a different set in Deuteronomy?

 

[Presbyterian Continuist]

The Ten Commandments and the Levitical Law shows us the standards of holiness. It was a set of outward laws that the people of Israel had to follow because not only it was the Law of God but also the Law of the land. In Israel there was no division of "church and state" as stated in the American Constitution. These laws were for unconverted people who, because it was not recognised that they could not be perfect in following them, they had to offer sacrifices once a year to preserve their righteousness. So the righteousness of the faithful in the OT was through the Law and the sacrifices.

But for the Christian believer, because of the once and for all sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, he or she is born again. It is an inward work of the Holy Spirit, giving that person a whole new heart and a spirit made alive. This means that the new heart and spirit in the person gives them the strong desire to love, fellowship with, and please God in all they do and say. They may view the Ten Commandments, and say, "There is your standard, Lord, and by your Grace I will follow it, and I will use 1 John 1:9 when I slip up, either through error or through my own deliberate fault."

So the Ten Commandments are there for the believer's education and guide to self monitoring to ensure that they are on the right path to sanctification. Where they see a shortcoming, they come boldly to God's throne of grace to find mercy and grace to help to meet that need.

Hi JackRT,

Sorry if I missed your point. You may need to clarify your post. God did not write down a different set of 10 commandments. He wrote down the same set because the first set was broken by Moses as he came down the Mount the first time after seeing God's people dancing around the Golden calf. This was posted earlier. * see Exodus 32:15-19 from post #14. (see Exodus 34:1)

Hey there Oscarr, nice to meet you here. God's LAW (10 Commandments) are the standard of Good and Evil. They are our duty of LOVE to God and man. They give us the KNOWLEDGE of SIN and RIGHTOUESNESS or HOLINESS but they can make nothing perfect.

Much of the LEVITICAL laws for remission of sin from the MOSAIC BOOK of the COVENANT however have a different purpose. There role was for remission of sin if God's LAW (10 commandments) were broken under the OLD COVENANT. They were SHADOW laws that were prophetic in nature pointing to Jesus as our true sacrifice for sin and God's plan of salvation.

DETAILED SCRIPTURE SUPPORT if interested here click me parts 1-6.

You are correct, in the NEW COVENANT God's promise is to write God's LAW in the HEART of those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW his WORD (Hebrews 8:10-12). LOVE is the fulfilling [doing] of God's LAW to those who have faith in God's WORD (Romans 13:9-10) and the fulfillment of the two great commandments (Matthew 22:36-40) and is why Jesus days if you LOVE me keep my commandments (John 14:15).

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Oscarr.

May God bless you as you seek him through his Word.

I did not think any clarifications were necessary. Your interpretation has very clear inconsistencies which I have clearly pointed out several times. Perhaps your interpretation needs to be reworked?

 

[GodsGrace101]

Hi LGW
Could you please expound on no. 4,
About keeping the Sabbath.
Why does scripture say that the Sabbath was made for man?
I read what you have in parentesis, but it sounds like it was made for man to rest.
Now Jesus is our rest.
??
Thanks.
