My point is: God finishes all His work and rested in 1 week. Genesis is not talking about other days or weeks, years.........
If God finished all His work in 6 days what can we say happen the second week? We don't know
The scriptures in Gen1-2:3 writes about 7 days in all. The 4th commandment revisits the fact that God finished all His works in 6days and rested on the 7th day of creation.
Not one hint about other days of God working and resting. Dialog about man working or resting adds words to the bible.
Exo 20:11
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 day, and hallowed
The word "wherefore" means "this is why".
So, God rested the seventh day of creation and blessed and made the seventh day Holy. This is why the Sabbath day is also blessed and made holy.
The answer to why the seventh day was blessed is because God rested.
The scriptures does not say that the seventh day was made for man. It says that the Sabbath was made for man. Scriptures does not say that God rested on the Sabbath. It say that God rested on the seventh day.
People need to stop lying on God and man.
Who's doing that. I think you said you keep it but don't comply. Wouldn't that be ignoring it? I think so.Um, are you ignoring the very plain commandment in Exodus?
Exo 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Exo 20:9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
Exo 20:10 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:
Exo 20:11 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 day, and hallowed it.
I'm not sure how you could have missed that, even if you don't think it applies to you.
It's pretty plain...
Only if the record has been amended. I'm pretty sure you know I read every detail in all your posts.I'm pretty sure I never said anything like that.
Well thank you.I'm very flattered to hear it.
I suggest you read the passage you quoted very closely and think very deeply about what it actually plainly says.So, that being the case, how do you get that I keep it but don't comply?
Perhaps you misunderstood something I said, and maybe I can clear it up for you.
I would ask if you're in compliance, but I'd make a swimmer out of you.What it says is that I must not work on the Sabbath. It also says that I may not ask anyone else to work on the Sabbath.
It explains that the Sabbath is holy, and that it has been from the beginning.
I don't know what you want me to think deeply about.
What's plain is: You want to be the people freed from bondage in Egypt, but you're not. You cannot inject yourself into scripture as the Children of Israel.Um, are you ignoring the very plain commandment in Exodus?

One could conclude via the Bible that the Sabbath was intended to be kept IN Israel... not everywhere on the planet and that God intended those of Israel to live in Israel not anywhere they pleased. We don't really see anyone promoting the Law that has a great desire to move there so they can more properly keep it.What's plain is: You want to be the people freed from bondage in Egypt, but you're not. You cannot inject yourself into scripture as the Children of Israel.
The most you could be is; "the stranger within thy gates"
I believe Paul when he says in the spirit we are not under the Law (it is nullified) why don't you?Why do you not believe the apostle?
Face it Angel, You're the one who dont believe the apostle. You keep cherry picking for key words, and running from the context.Why do you not believe the apostle?
