THE SABBATH IS GOD'S 4th COMMANDMENT - WHERE IS THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS IT IS ABOLISHED?

[LoveGodsWord]

Sorry but I did read your post. And no you've not answered anything. For instance your explanation of Gal 5:1-10 isn't found in this forum unless you put it in another thread.

Well that is not true. As posted earlier GALATIANS 5:1-10 is about CIRCUMCISION as a requirement for salvation. This links in to ACTS 15:1-2 where they had the same arguments.

CIRCUMCISION was a SHADOW law from the MOSAIC BOOK of the OLD COVENANT *EXODUS 24:7 representing a NEW HEART in the NEW COVENANT *

FORTOLD IN THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES….

DEUTERONOMY 30:6 [6] And the LORD your God will CIRCUMCISE YOUR HEART AND THE HEART OF YOUR DECENDENCE, TO LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND WITHYOU’RE YOUR SOUL, THAT YOU MAY LIVE.

JEREMIAH 4:4 [4] CIRCUMCISE YOURSELF TO THE LORD, AND TAKE AWAY THE FORESKINS OF YOUR HEART, you men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.

DEUTERONOMY 10:16 [16] CIRCUMCISE therefore THE FORESKIN OF YOUR HEART, and be no more stiff-necked.

NEW COVENANT FULFILLMENT of the SHADOWS of the CEREMONIAL ORDINANCE of CIRCUMCISION pointing the CIRCUMCISION of the HEART through faith in Christ…

ROMANS 2:25 [25] For circumcision verily profits, if you keep the law: but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision. [26], Therefore if the uncircumcision keeps the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? [27], And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfils the law, judge you, who by the letter and circumcision do transgress the law? [28], FOR HE IS NOT A JEW, WHO IS ONE; NEITHER IS THAT CIRCUMCISION, WHICH IS OF THE OUTWARD FLESH: [29], BUT HE IS A JEW WHICH IS ONE INWARDLY; AND CIRCUMCISION IS THAT OF THE HEART, IN THE SPIRIT AND NOT IN THE LETTER; WHOSE PRAISE IS NOT OF MEN BUT OF GOD.

1 CORITHIANS 7:19 [19] CIRCUMCISION IS NOTHING, AND UNCIRCUMCISION IS NOTHING, BUT THE KEEPING OF THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD.

CIRCUMCISION from the MOSAIC BOOK *EXODUS 24:7 of the OLD COVENANT is not a requirement for salvation * ACTS 15.

1 CORINTHIANS 7:19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing; but the keeping of the commandments of God.

Hope this helps.

No because of verse 10 which references Gen 2.

Your confused brother. V9-11 only supports what is being shared with you

[9], So then, it remains for the people of God to keep the Sabbath.
[10], For he that is entered into his rest (v9 SABBATH REST), he also has ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
[11], Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief (Heb 3).

CONTEXT is GOD'S REST from the SEVENTH DAY of the CREATION WEEK v1-5. Of course this references GENESIS 2:1-3 that is the point. This is the ORIGIN of the SEVENTH DAY SABBATH that God BLESSED and made a HOLY DAY and RESTED on.

Sorry brother God's WORD disagrees with you.

 

[LoveGodsWord]

Well at least I'm trying to discuss the concept of sabbath rest based on context. That context includes verse 10 which references Gen 2.

Nope. No your not.

 

[LoveGodsWord]

I understand No one including God can convince you. I'm here more because of you than for you. I realize trying to reach you with the truth is an exercise in foolishness. If you ever come to believe the truth, I would certainly rejoice.

For me, he must increase and I must decrease. I only point all to the Word of God because it is there we find the one who loves us that we may love him. You point all to your words over God's Word. I know him and am known by him. All that he shows me I see and must show to all because I am blind. He tells me it is those that say they see that do not see. These are they that have once known him or do not know him. There is only life in the living Word. These are his Words and not my own. Freely I give because freely I have received. I must speak in the light and what I hear preach in the housetops. Many will not hear because they do not know Him. He is the Word of God and those that believe him are those that he has chosen. They follow him because they love him and are loved by him. Many are called but few are chosen. There is nothing hidden that shall not be revealed come judgment day.

 

[LoveGodsWord]

Yes I know the meaning of your Scriptures. Your problem is I know the meaning of the ones I quote as well.

What do those scriptures mean in your view?

 

[LoveGodsWord]

This isn't a repeat post of mine.

The repitition is what you claim and you not respoding to the scriptures or the posts you are quoting from.

 

[LoveGodsWord]

Yes I did. I already responded to this c&p.

Nope your just repeating yourself again. Did you have anything to share?

 

[LoveGodsWord]

At least with a mule, they can be caused to believe by hitting them in the head with a 2x4.

It is given to the blind to have eyes to see and ears to hear and the lame to walk while those seeing see not. Those hearing hear not and those walking walk not. This is because spiritual things are spiritually discerned. They that be whole do not need the physician but those that are sick seek him. Many do not know the meaning.

 

[LoveGodsWord]

I'm still not worried. Rom 8:1-2

There is only no condemnation in those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW God's WORD and walk in his Spirit. All those who CONTINUE in KNOWN UNREPENTANT SIN will not enter into the KINGDOM of HEAVEN *HEBREWS 10:26-27 because they reject the gift of God's dear son *ROMANS 6:23. OBEDIENCE to God's LAW is not how we are saved it is the FRUIT of God's work in us as we BELIEVE and FOLLOW his WORD. If our faith has no fruit it is dead *JAMES 2:18-20; 26 and our tree will be cast down and thrown into the fire *MATTHEW 3:10; 7:19-20; 13:49-50. According to God's WORD if webreak ANY ONE of God's 10 commandments we stand guilty before God of SIN *JAMES 2:10-11. God's 4th commandment is one of God's 10 commandments that give us the KNOWLEDGE of GOOD and EVIL; SIN and RIGHTEOUSNESS *ROMANS 3:20; ROMANS 7:7; 1 JOHN 3:4; PSALMS 119:172.

Back to the OP here...

The challenge I am putting up here in the OP is for anyone to show even one scripture that says God's 4th Commandment of the 10 commandments (Exodus 20:8-11) which was spoken and written by God himself to his people, has been abolished and we are now commanded to keep Sunday as a Holy day.

Can anyone please show me where in all the bible does is say (SOLA SCRIPTURA; Scripture only please)...

1. That God's 4th commandments 7th day Sabbath has been abolished?

2. That Jesus is a Sabbath?

3. The Sabbath (seventh day) was ever changed from the seventh to the first day of the week?

4. Where we are told to keep the first day of the week holy?

5. Where the first day of the week (Sunday) is ever called a holy day?

6. That says that Jesus ever kept the first day (Sunday)?

7. That tells us to keep the first day in honour of the resurrection of Christ?

8. Where the first day is ever given any sacred name?

9. That affirms that any of the apostles ever kept the first day as the Sabbath?

10. From any apostolic writings that authorizes Sunday observance as the Sabbath of God?

11. Where we are told not to work on the first day of the week?

12. That says the seventh day is no longer God's Sabbath day?

13. That says the seventh day Sabbath is ABOLISHED?

14. Where the apostles ever taught any convert to keep the first day of the week as a Sabbath?

15. Where the first day was ever appointed to be kept as the Lord's Day?

16. Where the first day of the week is ever called the Lord's Day?

17. That says that the first day of the week was ever sanctified and hallowed as a day of rest?

18. That says that the Father or the Son (Jesus) rested on the first day of the week?

19. That says that Jesus, Paul or any other of the apostles taught anyone to observe the first day of the week as the Sabbath?

20. That calls the seventh day the “Jewish Sabbath” or one text that calls Sunday the “Christian Sabbath”?

21. Telling man to keep the first day of the week holy or to worship or rest on the first day of the week?

22. Authorizing anyone to set aside God's Sabbath and observe any other day?

23. Showing any of the apostles keeping the first day of the week as the Sabbath?

24. Authorizing someone to set aside the fourth Commandment and observe any other day of the week?

25. Where any apostle taught us to keep the first day of the week as the Sabbath?

26. Declaring that the seventh day is no longer the Eternal Sabbath day?

27. Where Sunday is now appointed to be kept as the New Testament Sabbath or holy day?

...................

Something to think about here because we are all accountable to God come judgment day where we will all be judged by the Word of God (John 12:47-48).

God's Word makes it very clear that if we follow the teachings of men over the Word of God we are not following God...

MATTHEW 15:3-9 [3],
[3], But he answered and said unto them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
[4], For God commanded, saying, Honor your father and mother: and, He that curses father or mother, let him die the death.
[5], But you say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift devoted to God, whatsoever you might have received from me;
[6], And honors not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have you made the commandment of God void by your tradition.
[7], You hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
[8], These people draw near unto me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
[9], But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

If we are KNOWINGLY breaking ANY of God's commandments we are not worshipping God.

Look forward to your thoughts...

Rubbish click me. You were also shown the Greek for Sabbatismos in the previous post that agrees with the Aramaic tranlation of HEBREWS 4:9. An apology would be great for all your false accusation but I will leave that between you and God. Doing a little prayerful research before making false claims would help you.

George M. Lamsa, Rocco A. Errico and the Aramaic Argument (Aramaic Bible)

By: Dr. John Ankerberg, Dr. John Weldon; ©1999

Despite all this, in considering his life’s work (Aramaic Bible), four basic points should be stressed:

1) Scholars reject the basic premise of Lamsa’s Aramaic originals.

2) The evidence declares that the Aramaic texts were derived from Greek texts, not vice versa, and therefore the Peshitta is the one with translation errors.

3) Lamsa was not the objective scholar he is made out to be; he ended his life in close agreement to many New Thought heresies (for example, he denied the deity of Christ and the atonement).

4) Aramaic is used by more than a dozen cults to reject biblical doctrines, rather than to elucidate the meaning of the text.

Further information on the translator Lamsa.

Nevertheless, Lamsa declared he was the only competent translator (hence interpreter) of the Bible, summarily dismissing all the exegetes of history! In More Light on the Gospel, he declared: “The author, through God’s grace, is the only one with the knowledge of Aramaic, the Bible customs and idioms, and the knowledge of the English language who has ever translated the Holy Bible from the original Aramaic texts into English and written commentaries on it.”

It talks of a "Sabbath rest," but that is not referring to the Sabbath "day" as you think. It shows that it is some other type of rest than the day, because it mentions that the promised land was not what the Sabbath day (7th day) was pointing to, but something else in the future from Joshua, and also from the giving of the Sabbath (which is the sign of the Old Covenant that we are not under). At the end of the chapter we see that it is pointing to the throne of grace, with Jesus as our high priest. This is why we are no longer under the Old Covenant, but under the New Covenant - the era of grace and power from Jesus, Himself.

The whole issue of the Law was to show us our sin from our old nature. But for those who have repented and turned to Christ, He has taken our sin and nailed it on the cross and given us new natures that do not sin. If you don't sin, you don't need a law pointing out sin that isn't there.

Understand?

I am not arguing Aramaic Primacy of the NEW TESTAMENT. From my own investigations sections of the NEW TESTAMENT were translated from ARAMAIC manuscripts and sections were translated from GREEK manuscripts. There are original OLD and NEW TESTAMENT manuscriputs in ARAMIAC and GREEK.

Some believe that the Aramaic text is the most original transcripts. This is interesting as most popular English New Testaments come from Greek translations originally converted from Hebrew and Aramaic texts. Simply put, most New Testaments are a translation of a translation. Conversely, the Aramaic english translation comes directly from Aramaic manuscripts, the very language spoken by Jesus and his disciples. Scholars naturally agree that it is best to translate from the oldest, most original text and this of course is critical for accuracy.

Greek translations of original Aramaic Bible texts were developed for western countries but a different phenomenon was happening in the east where Aramaic texts were proliferating. Immediately we have a problematic situation where virtually all Western New Testament translations are based off of a language other than the original Aramaic, but this is not the only disappointing factor. For while learned scribes who held great reverence for every word, letter and punctuation mark, meticulously maintained the Aramaic texts in the east, the same cannot be said of the many western Greek translations.

Fact: no two Greek texts agree to the extent that over 300 Aramaic texts agree within the Peshitta family. And although the Khabouris Codex contains minor differences within the Peshitta family its accuracy is simply closest to the orginal. (AENT)

The debate for a Greek primacy to the New Testament vs. an Aramaic primacy of the New Testament has been the subject of debate for a very long time. While the majority of Western Christian churches hold to a Greek primacy for the New Testament, the majority of Eastern Christian churches hold to an Aramaic primacy for the New Testament. There is evidence to support a Semitic origin of the New Testament (also see this Wikipedia). For me I believe there is evidence for both ARAMAIC and GREEK as these were the original early manuscripts that we get the NEW TESTAMENT scriptures.

Understand?

You won't apologise for your earlier comments and accusations will you ?

Try reading the CONTEXT you leave out of your interpretation of the scriptures.

HEBREWS 4:1-11
[1], Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
[2], For to us was the gospel preached, as well as to them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
[3], For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
[4], For he spoke in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.
[5], And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.

NOTE: CONTEXT is God's REST from the SEVENTH DAY SABBATH REST OF CREATION (v4-5) and those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW GOD's WORD enter into God's SABBATH REST as GOD did on the SEVENTH DAY of the week. CONTEXT is GOD's SEVENTH DAY SABBATH REST and those who believe or do not believe God's WORD and enter into that rest.

[6], Seeing therefore it remains that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:
[7], Again, he limits a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
[8], For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
[9], So then, it remains for the people of God to keep the Sabbath.

Now notice Hebrews 4, verse 9: “There remains therefore a SABBATH rest to the people of God.” In verses 1, 3, 4 and 8, the Greek word for “rest” is katapausin. It means “rest.” But in verse 9, the Greek word for “rest” is sabbatismos, which is a Hebrew word—Sabbat, which means “the Sabbath”—combined with a Greek suffix—ismos, which means “a keeping of” or “a doing of.” Put together, sabbatismo means “a keeping of the Sabbath.” When correctly translated, Hebrews 4:9 should read, “There remains therefore a keeping of the Sabbath to the people of God.”

[10], For he that is entered into his rest (v9 SABBATH REST), he also has ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
[11], Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief (Heb 3).

.................

CONCLUSION: HEBREWS 4 is talking about the Gospel rest of BELIEVING and FOLLOWING God's WORD; v29 Learn of me; v30 my burden (doing) is light. This agrees with Hebrews 4:2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. HEBREWS 4:9 is in reference to God's SEVENTH DAY SABBATH REST which is the CONTEXT shown in HEBREWS 4:1-5. HEBREWS 4 therefore with context added is saying that no one enter God's Sabbath rest if they do not BELIEVE God's WORD or follow it.

Hope this helps

Nice dodge. What about the rest of the verses? Paul does say the whole law in verse 3. Surely you can't limit circumcision to being the whole law. I guess since you aren't circumcised would mean you're not subject to the whole law. James says it a bit different.

Jam 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

Now dodge that.

I want you to explain

Gal 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Specifically what is the yoke of bondage?

Gal 5:4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

You preach that one is justified by keeping the 7th day sabbath (the law) in that not doing so is sin.

CONTEXT is GOD'S REST from the SEVENTH DAY of the CREATION WEEK v1-5. Of course this references GENESIS 2:1-3 that is the point. This is the ORIGIN of the SEVENTH DAY SABBATH that God BLESSED and made a HOLY DAY and RESTED on.

Sorry brother God's WORD disagrees with you.

Gen 2:1-3 isn't the origin of the sabbath. It's one of the reasons the Israeli were to keep it.

Verse 10 doesn't allow your idea because God ceased His work. God didn't return to His work. The sabbath is a periodic repeating occurrence. Even your quoted version says so.

 

[ace of hearts]

Nope. No your not.

I'm not discussing the sabbath. I'm discussing the sabbath rest (sabbatismos). The two are different things.

God didn't say they wouldn't ever enter the sabbath.

 

[LoveGodsWord]

Gen 2:1-3 isn't the origin of the sabbath. It's one of the reasons the Israeli were to keep it. Verse 10 doesn't allow your idea because God ceased His work. God didn't return to His work. The sabbath is a periodic repeating occurrence. Even your quoted version says so.

Your confused brother. Of course GENESIS 2:1-3 is the origin of the SABBATH why do you think God BLESSED the SEVENTH DAY and made it a HOLY DAY? This is also repeated in EXODUS 20:8-11 as the reason God the SEVENTH DAY SABBATH as the 4th commandment of the 10 commandments that give us the KNOWLEDGE of sin when broken *ROMANS 3:20.

 

[ace of hearts]

What do those scriptures mean in your view?

I'll discuss them again with you when you discuss the passages I've posted. You can start with my quote of Gal 5. Then I'll start listing the others.
