O HAVE A BLESSED AND SANCTIFIED SABBATH ALL PEOPLE OF GOD
Evangelicals, come let us reason together Jesus says, though your sins be as scarlet they shall be as white as snow. Give yourself a chance and follow Jesus in Sabbath keeping.
The fourth commandment clearly show forth the Sabbath is for all men. The reason is given of why to keep the Sabbath is therein. It tells us to keep the Sabbath for in six days Yahweh made the heaven and earth the sea and all that in them is, and rested on the Seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it. This knowledge shows we owe it to God (who is Love) to worship Him and give glory, honor and service to Him in all we do, since it is He who created us and all we enjoy. Thus how could the Sabbath knowledge be only for the Jews when the reason given for Sabbath keeping pertains to all men. In fact our own elders in heaven worship God based on that same knowledge reason given in the fourth commandment of Exodus 20:8-11, I quote Revelation 4:10-11 as regards our elders in heaven:
"10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created."
This is why Jesus said in Mark 2:27 the Sabbath was made for man"
Thus indeed there remaineth a Sabbath keeping for man as we are told in Hebrews 4: 9-10. I quote:
"9 There remaineth therefore a Sabbath keeping (Greek - Sabbatismos translated rest in the kjv) to the people of God.
10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his."
The people of God to whom remaineth a Sabbath keeping is us, remember what Paul said in quoting Hosea in Rom.9:25, I quote:
"As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved."
Paul later in verse 30-31 shows clearly it is us gentiles or non-Jews that Paul speaks of as the people of God, I quote:
"30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness."
Thus we are the people of God to whom there remaineth a Sabbath keeping.
To the Evangelicals I explain these things in the Love of God to you that your experience in heart would be that of those who are sanctified and made holy by the Lord (Ezek.20:12), and whose inner sanctified state would be manifested in the keeping of the commandments of God as a delight (Isaiah 58:13).
