How is it that you seem to find Isaiah 58:13, Lev 23:2-3, Ex 20:8-11, Isaiah 66:23 that have been quoted for you - so many times in the past - in that regard - so difficult?

How is it that the "Baptist Confession of Faith" and the "Westminster Confession of Faith" and D.L. Moody can all get the answers -- but you struggle??

No struggle at all.
Just curious about how SDAs keep the Sabbath and find more division and strife than imaginable.
Lunar Sabbatarians say the SDA church gets it all wrong.
Some say the true seventh day cannot be ascertained at all.
Just wondering if there is a general consensus on how to keep Sabbath correctly, given the enormous importance placed on this by the SDA church.

have you considered being curious about the actual Bible texts the SDAs keep giving you in answer to the question "how to keep the Sabbath"??

Lunar Sabbatarians say the SDA church gets it all wrong.

Jews and SDAS and most Sabbath keeping Christians (and most non-sabbath keeping Christians ) say that the Lunar group has it all wrong.

No "news" there.

I give the following answer when asked this type of question:

Suppose you find the love of your life and want to spend the rest of your life with her. She makes a time and place to meet with her so you can know her better and become closer. Do you tell her, well I need to check on my other old flames and see if it conflicts with their day and then maybe I will see you. You can see where I am going with this...

If you love God, you do what He asks, and Sabbath was made for man to spend time to know Him and become closer....
