I hear people all the time who tell me the Sabbath day has been done away with, or that we no longer have to keep the Sabbath day or the Sabbath changed to Sunday, or Y'shua replaced the Sabbath day when He resurrected the first dayAll of these claims cannot be supported by Scripture not one Scripture in the Bible says it was changed or replaced. This my top 10 Scriptural reasons we are to keep the Sabbath10. The Sabbath day was established at creation Gen 2:2-3; & on the 7th day G-d ended His work which He had made, & He rested on the 7th day from all His work which He had made. 3; & G-d Blessed the 7th day & Sanctified it, because that in it He had rested from all His work which G-d created and made.9. The Sabbath is 4 of the 10 Words, Ex 20:8-11; remember the Sabbath day to keep it Holy. 9, 6 days show you labor and do all your work, but the 7th day is the Sabbath of the L-rd your G-d, in it used to not do any work, you, know your son, nor your daughter, your man servant, your maidservant, your cattle, nor the stranger as within your gates. 11. 4 and 6 days the L-rd made Heaven and earth, and the sea and all that is in them, and rest of the 7th day, wherefore the L-rd Blessed Sabbath day and Hollowed it8. It is a **sign** between G-d & His people. Ex 31:13-17; speak you also unto the children of Y'srael, saying verily My Sabbaths you shall keep for it is a **sign** between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I Am the L-rd who does sanctify you. You shall keep the Sabbath therefore, for it is Holy unto you, everyone that defiles it shall surely be put to death, for whosoever does any work there in, that soul shall be cut off from among His peopleSix days may work be done, but in the seventh is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the L-rd, whose forever does any work on the Sabbath day he shall surely be put to death. 16; wherefore the children of Y'srael shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations for a Perpetual (Everlasting) Covenant. 17; it is a **sign** between Me and the children of Y'srael Forever, for in 6 days the L-rd made Heaven and the Earth and on the 7th day He rested and was refreshed. Ezek 20:12.7. The Sabbath is a gift to us. Mark 2:27; and He said unto them, the Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. Ezek 20:12; Moreover also I gave them My Sabbath, to be a **sign** between Me and them, that they may know that I Am the L-rd that sanctifies them6. G-d blesses those who keep it, Isa 56:2-7; Blessed is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold of it, that keeps the Sabbath from polluting it and keeping his hand from doing any evil. 3. Neither let the son of the stranger/gentile, **that has joined** himself to the L-rd, speak saying the L-rd has utterly separated me from His people, neither let the eunuch say, behold I am a dry tree4. For the says the L-rd unto the eunuchs that keep My Sabbath, and choose the things that please Me, and take hold of my Covenant, 5. Even unto them while I give in Mine house and within My walls a place and a name better than of the sons and of daughters; I will give them an Everlasting name, that shall not be cut off6. Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be his servants, everyone that keeps the Sabbath from polluting it, and takes hold of my Covenant 7. Even then why bring to My Holy Mountain, and make them joyful In My house of prayer, their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon Mine altar from My house shall be called a house of prayer for all people5. The Sabbath will still be kept in the new creation. Isa 66:22-23; for as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before Me, says the L-rd, so shall your seed and your name remain. 23; and it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one Shabbat to another, shall all flesh come to Worship before Me says the L-rd4. We are Commanded to remember the Sabbath. Ex 20:8; remember the Sabbath day, to keep it Holy.3. To forget the Sabbath is a punishment. Lam 2:6; and He has violently taken away His Tabernacle, as if it were of a garden, He has destroyed His places of the assembly, the L-rd has caused the Solemn Feasts and Sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion and has despised in the indignation of His anger the king and the priestHosea 2:11-13; I will also cause all her murder to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her Sabbath, and all her Solemn Feasts 12; and I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, where of she has said, these are my rewards that my lover's have given me, and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them 13; and I will visit upon her the days of ba'alim, wherein she burn incense to them, and she deck herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgot Me says the L-rd2. Y'shua, Paul, & gentile converts kept the Sabbath. Luke 4:16; and He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up, and as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up for to readActs 13:42-44; and the next Sabbath day came almost a whole (gentile) city together to hear the Word of G-d. 45. But when the Jews saw the multitude, they were filled with envy, and speak against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blasphemingActs 15:21; for Moshe/Torah a of old-time has in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogue every Sabbath dayActs 17:2; and Paul as his manner was, went in unto them and three Sabbath days reason with them out of the scriptures. 18:4; and he reason in the synagogue every Sabbath and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks& 1. The Bible never says to stop keeping the Sabbath, Ex 31:16-17, it is an Everlasting Covenant to His people 😀😇But everyone, Rejoice I have a bonus scripture for everyone 😉 to think about 🤔. Ezek 22:26; her priests have violated My Law, and a profane My Holy things, and they put no difference between the Holy and the profane, neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean, and I have hid their eyes for My Sabbaths, and I Am profaned among themI hope everyone has enjoyed my top 10 reasons for keeping the Sabbath 😀😉😇. We are all brothers and sisters in the L-rd, and I love everybody here. My prayer is that this has challenged or provoked people to keep the Sabbath and to see the importance of it and will search the Scriptures on it for Understanding. In Y'shua's Name amein 😠Ps 122:6

The Sabbath remains a question for me. I'm pretty sure that if the Church has been using Sunday for almost 2000 years--and being blessed by God!--then keeping A DAY (not specifically the SABBATH) seems to be accepted by God.HOWEVER, I have long contended that I don't understand why all the other of the Ten Commandments are still required...except the Sabbath. If it's like circumcision, then why wasn't either circumcision included in the 10 Commandments...or the Sabbath left off of it?

Lol, that was funny Aaron, 7th day adventist...🤔, I wonder who they got that from? 🤔. If the Sabbath is in question to you and Aaron, study it out in all text of the Bible, I have just given you a few. In fact don't just Ponder things on yourself, ask questions ask your pastor, ask your teacher if you're in school or whatever, but don't just sit there silent. Because now what are you going to do with all the scriptures that you have read here, what do you do about those? How are you going to fit those in your theology? 😱The word Sabbath alone is in the Bible 171 times, 69 times in the New Testament, & it is an Everlasting Covenant to His peopleAbout the church being blessed for 2,000 years..... I just direct your attention to 1st Chr 34 was King Josiah who did everything his father David did, and he was blessed. Then the Torah / Law was found in came out and was read to King Josiah....& And what did he say? We have inherited lies from our fathers, (as we have)The point is King Josiah was blessed in everything he thought was right and was doing, but when Truth came forth and was revealed it set him free and he knew he had to repent and all Y'srael, & they did....The Catholic Church removed Sabbath and change it to Sunday, they have publicly in their books they have said that G-d give them the authority to change the Sabbath day from Saturday to Sunday, from which G-d never said. & Am I pretending to be Jewish, or do I try to live & say what G-d says? That's where you miss it Aaron, it's not a Jewish thing, it's G-d's Ps 122:6

& they are STILL the 10 Words, Commandments😀😋😇. That should raise eyebrows and concerns 😠Ps 122:6

Aaron, let me ask you a question, do you have a verse for Sunday rest? That's where you'll find your answe Ps 122:6

I think I'll just stick to the law that God writes on our hearts, I don't want to be condemned for the guilt of sin.Hebrews 8:7-13

Do you suppose that God would permit His church to go 2000 years without withdrawing blessing, etc., if it is as big a deal as some make of it?There is a verse in the NT (not where I can look it up right now) that indicates that some esteem one day over another, but implying something far less than literal Sabbath observance.Consider that Christians were not welcomed in synagogues after a certain point. They were somewhat pushed to observe another day of worship, etc.Consider that the Jews’ worship OF the Sabbath caused them to hate the Lord of the Sabbath. They hated Him for His disciples picking corn (if I remember correctly) on the Sabbath. And the Jews were outraged that Jesus had the temerity to heal someone on the Sabbath. The point being that Jesus was breaking their “law” regarding the Sabbath...and no doubt would still be considered breaking it today.

Shalom.... I don't know what translation that is, I thought you were riding down the commentary notes 😏 LOL. But you're making my point that we got to keep G-d's Torah, Law. Because what was the writer of Hebrews speaking from? Jeremiah 31:31-34, & those laws are from the Torah, 1st oral, then in stone, now in our hearts, same Law's 😉. So I agree with you unc, keep G-d's Laws 😠Ps 122:6

Do you suppose that God would permit His church to go 2000 years without withdrawing blessing, etc., if it is as big a deal as some make of it?There is a verse in the NT (not where I can look it up right now) that indicates that some esteem one day over another, but implying something far less than literal Sabbath observance.Consider that Christians were not welcomed in synagogues after a certain point.

The point being that Jesus was breaking their “law” regarding the Sabbath...and no doubt would still be considered breaking it today.My issue is NOT with the Law, as I consider it nullified for Christians. My concern is with the Ten Commandments, with transcend the law, in that they are moral commands from before the Law...and after it. Again, I do not fully understand why we feel to keep all but the Sabbath commandment, but it’s hard to argue against the fact that God has continued to bless the church despite the fact that some believe the church to be in terrible disobedience. G-d allows things to go on, but his arm is always stretch out to His people, Christians 2, Rom 10:21. Look how much time passed before Messiah arrived on the scene. These rabbis I've been preaching the torch of the people forever, & when Messiah showed up they had no clue who He was...G-d seemed to care about the Sabbath, it was the only day He named, and the only day set aside Holy to Himself, the only day he made an Everlasting Covenant with, and the only day He gave it to us as a gift. Look at the big deal Christians make of Sunday, look what happens when you miss a couple Sundays in a row....as if it's a big deal. I mean if you can keep Sunday, why can't we just keep the L-rds Sabbath?Ur verse is Rom 14:5, but how do you know its speaking of the Sabbath day, the Sabbath never mentioned in this chapter. But it does speak of food, so it could have been speaking of a fast day. And verse one speaks of those that are weak in the faithI don't know where you're speaking of that Christians were set aside and kicked out of synagogues, because Acts 15:21says something different at the Nicene Council. Jews that believe the Messiah were also kicked out of the synagogue at some point. Christians were never forced into worshipping another day, the Catholic church inscribed Sunday because they hatred the Jews and they tried to change the religion by trying to get the jewishness out of it. This can coincide with resident Skeptics thread& I'm lost, which Jews hated the L-rd of the Sabbath, all the ones that followed Him, His Jewish apostles, or was it the religious Jewish Pharisees. The religious system hated Messiah, & today the religious system hates God's Torah. It's reversed. And your whole thing is speaking of the religious system, the scribes and Pharisees, Messiah was breaking their view of the SabbathAnd Aaron, where is your verse that the Laws are nullified for Christians, be careful, & that's not discipleship, that's dual covenant theology, and or replacement theology, pick your poison. & My friend, go study the Sabbath yourself in prayer to G-d using the scriptures in all text of the Bible. Remember the family you are grafted into now and what He told them to do, & how to live. Find out who changed it, & may G-d open your eyes and show you the Truth you're looking forIn Y'shua's Name amei Ps 122:6

Aaron & Unc, what do you do with just those 11 examples of the Sabbath I posted from the Bible, what do you think they mean? That's what G-d thinks about the Sabbath. You all know I'm not against you guys, I'm just giving you things to think about, we all need to be challenged on what & why we believe things. We are brothers and sisters & iron sharpens iro Ps 122:6
