Yes, but I can't find a contact point to ask a question about their literature. I am trying to find some information from The Seventh-day Adventist Bible commentary. I purchased two volumes on a used book store but they are rather old and I found out they had a bunch of new ones printed in the 80s. I am trying to find vol 2 and 5 as mentioned by Bacchiocci in his book the Time of the Crucifixion and the Resurrection. Footnote 6 on page 34, I am interested in finding more information on inclusive counting in the Bible. I have volumes 2 and 5 coming to me in a few days but I am not sure I will be able to find what I need.

I still keep the Sabbath alone. I do not attend a church though but I miss it sometimes. I don't always keep the Sabbath but when I do I find I am able to rest and mellow out on the Sabbath day. I don't feel we should judge each other for what day we keep. So said Paul in the Bible.

Every church is a little different, some are more progressive than others, the ones I go to and prefer are the ones that are more conservative. They usually start off with song and prayers, some have children's stories and a sermon and close with music prayer. After church many times they will have a potluck for fellowship.

When I lived in CA, I went to a pretty large SDA church and Pastor Doug Batchelor was my pastor, he is a popular SDA pastor and has brought many people to Christ including myself. He is more of a teacher than a pastor and he makes the sermons interesting while packing it with Scriptures. When i moved to another state it took me a while to find the right SDA church, almost a year. The one I go to now is much smaller but its really a family and I love it.

If you have any questions, let me know.

God bless!

Hi sabbath blessings

I went a long to a service today not long got home, it was nice lovely people, they were having a lunch after the service then another 2 hour Bible study from 3-5 I didn't stay for that this time as I had family coming around this afternoon, but I did enjoy the 3 hours I spent with them was nice to hear people acknowledge the lord in everything, and not complaining that in it self was refreshing Every blessing

Thanks for sharing and I am glad to hear you had a blessed Sabbath. 3 hours? You must have also went to Sabbath School, which I love. There is something really special about sharing the Sabbath with other Christians and its really my favorite day of the week.

God bless!

What is Samuele Bacchiocci's best book on why Christians should observe Sabbath? I know Paul said we shoudn't judge a man by what day he keeps (this cuts both ways). Does Doug Batchelor have one better? Please let me know as I like to revisit this issue from time to time.

Here’s a video of Pastor Doug Batchelor on why keep the Sabbath


Here is a book/study guide

How to Keep the Sabbath Holy

Most Christians agree we need a day of rest but is the Sabbath a holiday or a holy day?

www.amazingfacts.org

I am more familiar with him than Bacchiocci but here is his book from Sabbath to Sunday. From Sabbath To Sunday by Samuele Bacchiocchi | PDF | Biblical Sabbath | Ten Commandments

Regarding Paul and judging the Sabbath if we look at the context he is speaking of things that were contrary and against Col2:14 not the seventh day Sabbath- Jesus said the Sabbath was made for mankind, not made against mankind. I can provide a bible study on this passage if you would like.

God bless!
