Few points with scripture support here...
We are not under the SHADOW laws of MOSES from the MOSAIC BOOK of the law that pointed to JESUS and God's plan of salvation in the NEW COVANANT *DEUTERONOMY 31:24-26; EXODUS 24:7. These were SHADOWS of things to come *COLOSSIANS 2:17; HEBREWS 10:1-8. God's ETERNAL LAW however is God's LAW that in the OLD AND NEW COVENANT give us the KNOWLEDGE of GOOD and EVIL; SIN and RIGHTEOUSNESS *ROMANS 3:20; ROMANS 7:7; 1 JOHN 3:4; PSALMS 119:172. You mix up your SHADOW laws from the MOSAIC BOOK of the law *DEUTERONOMY 31:24-26; EXODUS 24:7 in the OLD COVENANT with God's ETERNAL LAW that give us the knowledge of what SIN is in the NEW COVENANT. If you do not know what the OLD COVENANT is how can you understand what the NEW COVENANT is that the OLD COVENANT points to?
We are in the NEW COVENANT now not the OLD COVENANT *HEBREWS 8:10-12. God's ISRAEL in the NEW COVENANT are all those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW God's WORD *JOHN 3:15-21. If you are not a part of God's ISRAEL then you have no part in the NEW COVENANT promise *HEBREWS 8:10-12. Gentiles are now grafted into God's ISRAEL *ROMANS 11:13-27. It sounds like your trying to argue against God's 10 commandments again that you said in another post that Christians are to follow? Have you changed your mind? Sounds like you are contradicting yourself brother. Did you wish you explain yourself and clarify your position so there is no misunderstandings? Or are you teaching God's 4th commandments is ABOLISHED and we are now commanded to keep Sunday as a Holy day? If so where is your scriptures?
Indeed. How does this answer the question in the post you are quoting from? JESUS is not re-commanding God's 10 commandment he is showing that the application of them is to the inside out. He is magnifying the law in fulfillment of *ISAIAH 42:21. Now JESUS did not re-command any of God's 10 commandments he simply taught about what was already given to God's people 4000 years earlier *EXODUS 20:1-17. Why would JESUS need to re-command God's 10 commandments when God's people already had them for 1000's of years. Yout argument makes no sense. Where does JESUS re-command the first 4 commandments which are our duty of love to God?
According to God's WORD in the NEW COVENANT God's ETERNAL LAW (10 commandments) gives us the KNOWLEDGE of GOOD and EVIL; SIN and RIGHTEOUSNES *ROMANS 3:20; ROMANS 7:7; 1 JOHN 3:4; PSALMS 119:172. If we break any one of God's ETERNAL LAW (10 commandments) we stand guilty before God of sin *JAMES 2:10-11.
Did JESUS and the APOSTLES and God's people travel to Church on the Sabbath? What does God's 4th commandment say *EXODUS 20:8-11
Nope.
EXODUS 20:8-11 [8], Remember the SABBATH DAY, to KEEP IT HOLY. <Why?> Because God made it Holy for mankind and commands us to keep it as a Holy day) [9], Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: [10], But the SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH of the LORD thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: <WHY> [11], For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the SEVENTH DAY: wherefore the LORD BLESSED THE SABBATH, and HALLOWED IT.
Preparation day (6th day of the week)
EXODUS 16:22-23 [22], And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses. [23], And he said to them, This is that which the LORD has said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath to the LORD: bake that which you will bake to day, and seethe that you will seethe; and that which remains over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
MARK 15:42, And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath
The preparation day is the 6th day of the week. This includes preparing to stop all business and secular work as well as any domestic work; cooking, cleaning; shopping, buying and selling that can be done on any other day of the week.
Doing God's WORK and doing GOOD on the SABBATH is not doing our own work *MATTHEW 12:1-12. God's 4th commandments states it is unlawful to do our own work. This includes all business and secular work as well as any domestic work; cooking, cleaning; shopping, buying and selling that can be done on any other day of the week and anything to do with uneccessary work (
Exodus 20:8-11; Exodus 16:22-23; Matthew 21:13).
Why? Is doing Good on the Sabbath a sin? Nope *MATTHEW 12:1-12
We should worship God everyday as did the disciples *ACTS 2:46-47. The issue is over sin and breaking any one of God's 10 commandments that give us the KNOWLEDGE of what sin is. *ROMANS 3:20. What does God's 4th commandment say?
EXODUS 20:8-11 [8], Remember the SABBATH DAY, to KEEP IT HOLY. <Why?> Because God made it Holy for mankind and commands us to keep it as a Holy day) [9], Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: [10], But the SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH of the LORD thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: <WHY> [11], For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the SEVENTH DAY: wherefore the LORD BLESSED THE SABBATH, and HALLOWED IT.
Did you set aside the SEVENTH DAY SABBATH for GOD and did you keep it Holy? You have the answers to your questions. How about you now answer mine?
Hope this helps.
