Do you keep the Sabbath? (poll)

[SabbathBlessings]

The scriptures are indeed from the mouth of God but your interpretations are not. I’m not disagreeing with God, you are. This response merely continues your Strawman since no one here is disagreeing with the scriptures themselves.

I’m going to give you a new assignment since you failed on the other two. Find a verse in scripture that shows that the law was given to the Christian church.

There is no need to re-interpret what God spoke, there’s power in His word its very plain all we need to do is believe and do what He asks through love and faith.

Like I said, we have been through this too many times, its in God's hands. I am not interested in further discussion, its not fruitful, but I wish you well.

It’s not a matter of reinterpreting the scriptures, it a matter of interpreting them using sound hermeneutical practices which is something that has led to your demise. Both literary and historical contexts are important. You continue to use scriptures that is outside of both.

So I guess you don’t have a verse that shows that the law was given to the church? Why not? After all, your argument relies on the church being given the law directly, right?

You need to understand the Sabbath in the new covenant perspective. You still at the old covenant Sabbath understanding. Otherwise you'll miss true Sabbath Rest which is found in Jesus. Read the Galatians warnings.

If a man understands and believes EVERY Word Jesus used to define the Pharisees, he will understand that the Pharisees were not promoting God's Laws, but as the Jesus "of the Bible" taught, the Pharisees taught for doctrines the commandments of men. Truly they "Had a Law", but it wasn't God's Law. When a person accepts this undeniable Biblical Truth, Galatians and Acts 15 are seen in a different "Light".

God does not change.

• Psalms 89:34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
• Malachi 3:6 For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
• Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
• James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

God's counsel is immutable (it doesn't change). It is impossible for God to lie.

• Hebrews 6:16-20 For men indeed swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation is for them an end of all dispute. Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath, that by two immutable things [His promise and His oath], in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us. This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil, where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

Conclusion: If God does not change, God's counsel is immutable, and it is impossible for God to lie, all bases are covered concerning the immutable law of God, the Ten Commandments.
