Verses That Disprove SDA Sabbath

[bugkiller]

Isa 65:21 does not contain the word sabbath or refer to it.

Isa 66:22-23 says nothing about on the sabbath.

I find it very amazing that from means on. It is also amazing that to means on. What dictionary gives such a definition?

[Cribstyl]

Isaiah speaks of building houses and planting vineyards in the New Earth, also also of worshipping the Lord every Sabbath (Isa. 65:21; 66:22-23)

Marc

Reminds me of how SDA read Gen 2:1-3 and find Adam resting with God.

Eze 20:12 is a very good point about who God gave the sabbath to. This directly contradicts the position of being given to all mankind falsely promoted with MK 2:27

The temple ceases to exist only when the plan of salvation is complete, chronologically Rev. 21 occurs at a later time.

Although symbolism is used, it describes real things in heaven. Jesus is pictured as a slain lamb.

Marc Rasell

Marc,


You are imposing interpretations that are not in the Book of Revelation. Revelation 11:19 does not say that any person or angel is in a temple in heaven. It doesn't say that a temple in heaven is waiting for us. Instead, it describes an event—God reveals something that has not been known to us. That is the symbolism of glimpsing the heavenly tabernacle. It's an event, not a place.


In the Hebrew mind, Yahweh sat on top of the Ark of the Covenant. He was invisible but that was where he could be found. In Revelation, John sees God on his heavenly throne and there is no Ark of the Covenant. If God isn't sitting on top of a heavenly Ark of the Covenant, then there is no need for one. Besides, the Old Covenant passed away and the New Testament gives us the New Covenant. Is there an Ark of the New Covenant? The Bible does not speak of any such thing.

[psalms 91]

Just as the feasts are a type and a shadow so also is the temple. It is clear that there is a heavenly New Jerusalem and that there is a temple. Anything other than that is twisting scripture.

 

[Dale]

Just as the feasts are a type and a shadow so also is the temple. It is clear that there is a heavenly New Jerusalem and that there is a temple. Anything other than that is twisting scripture.

“I did not see a temple in the city [New Jerusalem], because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.”
--Revelation 21:22 NIV

Are you arguing with the Bible?

The Book of Revelation doesn't say that there is a Temple in New Jerusalem and it is removed at some point in time. It never says there is one, then denies that there is one.

I must have missed that also.
