Pastor Baucham got his M.Div from Southern Baptist Theological seminary. "In March 2022, Baucham confirmed that he had been asked to accept a nomination for president of the Southern Baptist Convention, but noted that as an overseas missionary, he was not sure if he was eligible" Interesting...

Hello all, When I studied the 7th day Sabbath one thing I investigated was *WHEN* was the Sabbath observed. My reasoning was that if it started at Mt Sinai and ended at the cross you would see that reflected in a timeline. I did not find any such of an investigation so I made one. Here is my...

The spiritual rest that Jesus supplies doesn't overturn the physical rest which He also supplies in His once a week Sabbath rest. Compare the following two passages and consider the three color-coded elements and then see if you can answer the related questions: Matthew 11:28 Come to Me, all...

Brothers and Sisters, those with Joshua who "first heard" the "good news" of how to enter the Sabbath and were not allowed to enter by oath for 40 years in the desert near the Promised Land, did not enter the "day" of rest during those 40 years, which Joshua later entered at an earlier time than...

Exodus 20:8-11 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor...

We took a walk at the lake last night, and watched the sunset. It was very cloudy and only one little place where there were no clouds....and wouldn't you know it, that is where the sun popped thru! Watching the sunset on a Friday, is our favorite way to welcome in the Sabbath :).

TIME TO UNLEARN THE LIES ABOUT GOD’S WORD Welcome dear friends. May God bless you as you seek Him through His Word. All you have to do is turn on the news today to see that the signs of the times of the end of the world are being fulfilled in quick succession. Nearly everyday we see wars and...

Yet we don't see it implemented into law until Exodus, the 10 Commandments. Or was it assumed before Exodus and done automatically by God fearing people back then? I found it odd to do a word search for sabbath in Genesis and find nothing.

Hello! According to this Sabbatarian source, Ignatius' statement, normally translated thus, is incorrect (emphasis mine): If then those who had walked in ancient prac- tices attained unto newness of hope, no longer observing sabbaths but fashioning their lives after the Lord's day, on which our...

Hello! This could be a "church fathers" thread, but since a similar one I did before was moved, I'll just post here. The following article claims that Theophilus (Patriarch of Antioch from 169 to 182) taught that Christians must keep the Sabbath: Theophilus of Antioch – 160-180s AD The main...

Brothers and sisters, I've learned that the quail for a month is key to understanding the beginning and the end of the seventh day of the week for 40 years with Manna before reaching the Promised Land. “And say to the people, ‘Purify yourselves, for tomorrow you will have meat to eat. You were...

Hello! The other day, I was discussing Sabbatarianism on a thread, and @Torah Keeper said that the Acts of John (Apocryphal) supports the view that the Lord's Day is Saturday. Here's the text in question: And on the seventh day, it being the Lord's day, he said to them: Now it is time for me...

We have the Messianic movement which I see as being very Biblical and true. We have the Seventh Day Adventists which seem at first to be very Biblical but their embracing of their founder Ellen White I find very problematic because of the way she adds to things she talks about in the Bible...

Hello! Several Old Testament passages reference "Sabbaths" (Strongs 07676, shabbath), "New Moons" (Strongs 02320, chodesh), and "Set Feasts" (Strongs 04150, mow‘ed), along with the occasional mention of "feasts" (Strongs 02282, chag) as well (all verses NKJV, emphasis mine): Behold, I am...

Hello! I hear some argue that the Sabbath is an eternal law, not part of the law of Moses. Also, from what I can tell, the Bible always refers to the Sabbath as the seventh day (i.e., Saturday). If the Sabbath is the seventh day and if we must keep the Sabbath even today, then we'd be required...

Hello! Some say that the Sabbath is an eternal law that was practiced by Adam and Eve and should still be practiced now under the New Testament. Others say that it was a temporal law that started with the time of Moses and ended under the New Testament with Christ. With this in mind, I'd like to...

Since some have made this sort of topic a focus - recently - I am summarizing our position in this thread. 1. Many Christian denominations on BOTH sides of the Sabbath topic - affirm and promote "all TEN" of the Ten Commandments as being included in the "commandments of God" applicable tot all...

The Sabbath! Brothers and Sisters, Hebrews 3 and 4 calls all of us to enter the Sabbath "rest", after Jesus, that the Jews were not allowed to enter by an oath by keeping the seventh day Sabbath with the manna from morning to morning that was the wrong Sabbath near the Promised Land. Israel is...
