For all eternity - "From Sabbath to Sabbath shall all mankind come before God to Worship"

Today is the day we are called to come out of our rebellion, sin, unbelief and disobedience all used interchangeably if we hear His voice.

Today is not the day we are called to rebel against one of God's commandments, its the complete opposite.

Heb 3:7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says:

“Today, if you will hear His voice,
8 Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
In the day of trial in the wilderness,
9 Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,
And saw My works forty years.
10 Therefore I was angry with that generation,
And said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,
And they have not known My ways.’
11 So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”
12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; 13 but [b]exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, 15 while it is said:

“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
16 For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses? 17 Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

Eze 20:13 Yet the house of Israel rebelled against Me in the wilderness; they did not walk in My statutes; they despised My judgments, ‘which, if a man does, he shall live by them’; and they greatly defiled My Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out My fury on them in the wilderness, to consume them.

Eze 20:15 So I also raised My hand in an oath to them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, ‘flowing with milk and honey,’ the glory of all lands, 16 because they despised My judgments and did not walk in My statutes, but profaned My Sabbaths; for their heart went after their idols.

No wonder we are told not to harden our hearts and follow in the same path of disobedience like those who came before us Heb4:11 Will we continue in that same path or hear the Holy Spirit and obey Him through love and faith. Exo20:6 John14:15 1John5:3 Rev14:12 which reconciles us Rev22:14

Today He sets a certain day to enter His rest. Jesus rest is entered by faith not by keeping a certain day of the week.

“Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who previously had good news preached to them failed to enter because of disobedience, He again sets a certain day, “Today,” saying through David after so long a time just as has been said before, “Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts.””

Yes, Paul is quoting David. I quoted it verbatim, it doesn't say "Today He sets a certain day to enter His rest." nor does it say it deletes the 4th commandment. This is adding to God's Word, why not just quote what it actually says

Today,” saying through David after so long a time just as has been said before, “Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts.””

He is making applicable of what happened in the wilderness, their rebellion and harden heart and why they could not enter into their promise land as being just as applicable for today. Eze20:13 Ez320:15-16

Which is what he was repeating from the previous chapter and quoted verbatim from David,

Psa 95:7 Today, if you will hear His voice:
8 “Do not harden your hearts, as in the [c]rebellion,
As in the day of [d]trial in the wilderness,
9 When your fathers tested Me;
They tried Me, though they saw My work.
10 For forty years I was [e]grieved with that generation,
And said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts,
And they do not know My ways.’
11 So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”

Hebrews 4 is mainly quoting the OT. Sadly people have destroyed this passage to teach the exact opposite of what its warning, plainly. We enter Christ's rest through faith, those with faith who enter also cease from their works Heb8:10 as God did on the seventh day Heb4:4 Exo20:8-11 Gen2:3 because we depend on God for sanctification and for He to be our God Eze20:12 Eze20:20 there is no rebellion or disobedience to God's commandments in Christ rest, just peace Isa 48:18

I know we won't be able to reason together, so I will leave it as agree to disagree, All will get sorted out in God's time.

I did but it starts before David so context is important. Those that are left to enter His rest enter because of their faith not because of a day which is why those that hardened their hearts can not enter His rest. Today is a call of urgency so do not delay. The rest is by faith not by a day.

Our words do not equal Scripture. Sadly this is where so many go wrong. We need to stop elevating self and start elevating what God says.

Our words do not equal Scripture. Sadly this is where so many go wrong. We need to stop elevating self and start elevating what God says. God said to keep a certain day holy Exo20:8, why God spoke of a certain day in this way. Its literally why the many of the Israelites did not enter into their rest Eze20:15-16 due to the same rebellion Eze20:13 and disobedience we are called not to follow. Heb4:11

Heb 4:4 For He has spoken in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: “And God rested on the seventh day from all His works”

Our salvation is according to Christ and we are to live by what God says, not what man says. Why we are told plainly not to add to God's words, because it changes it and they go from being Divine and pure Pro30:5-6 to being man-made and impure.

Interpretation using proper context is important. In fact if scripture is that important to you then provide scriptural evidence that anyone kept the sabbath before Moses and that the Christian is required to keep the Jewish sabbath.

Actually to you salvation is by faith and works. Your interpretation is not what God says.

Heb 5:9 And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him,

Obeying God through faith and love and the power of the Holy Spirit, is not our works, its God's work Exo32:16 in us John14:15-18, if one allows not everyone does Rom8:7-8. I guess we shall find out soon enough, I beleive our time on this earth is drawing to a close. Time for me to move along....

Obedience comes from salvation as we work with the Holy Spirit for our sanctification. Nothing here about obeying a non existent commandment in the new covenant.

Let’s keep it simple.

““For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.”
‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

Is Jesus lying?

No, but not everyone believes and we are plainly told unbelief, sin, disobedience and rebellion are all interchangeable Heb3:7-19

And most people stop at this one verse but God didn't.

John3:18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”


Not everyone one wants to forsake their sins Pro28:18 many like to hold on to their sins because they love them more than they love Jesus to give them over to Him. For something that you claim is a non-existent commandment in the NC- its the very first commandment re-stated after Jesus ratified His covenant by His death Luke23:56 Heb9:16 and being kept faithfully decades after the Cross and for eternity. The Sabbath is mentioned over 55 times in the NT and the Sabbath is the only day God named Exo20:11 and what God does is forever Ecc3:14 He makes no mistakes we do by not trusting Him.

Once God blessed, like God did with His Sabbath- no man can reverse because man is not God.

Num 23:19 “God is not a man, that He should lie,
Nor a son of man, that He should repent.
Has He said, and will He not do?
Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?
20 Behold, I have received a command to bless;
He has blessed, and I cannot reverse it.

No one has the power to reverse something God blessed like God did with the seventh day Sabbath, the holy day of the LORD Isa 58:13 man can't reverse it, they can't apply it to a different day they can't do anything with it except not cooperate and forfeit His blessing.

Exo 20:11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

Isa 56:2
Blessed is the man who does this,
And the son of man who lays hold on it;
Who keeps from defiling the Sabbath,
And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”

Its best just to let God be God and we be His servant Isa56:6, but we do have free will, its the only way God will know who loves Him. Not everyone who says Lord Lord will enter His Kingdom Mat7:21-23 Luke6:46-49

The ones that don’t believe do not enter Jesus rest. It is that simple. All of us sin, all of us are disobedient, but those that believe have an advocate in Jesus.

“If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous, so that He will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬-‭10‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

You are adding works to the salvation by faith formula so you are preaching a faith plus works salvation. Good luck saving yourself.
