You see I know the Bible says some worship the Sabbath one day some honor every day the same and God is okay with both types of people.
Well YHWH said the 7th ay is set apart and the Feast days are set apart He never said any other days are and never said those days were not. Did you know:

The "Rabbis" also made their own holidays, Haunnaka and Rosh Hashanna and more. when they left Babylon they even changed the names of the moons (months), and Rosh hashanna even changes the time of the new year from the 1[SUP]st[/SUP] month to the 7[SUP]th[/SUP] month, this is clearly a “commandments and ordinances of men”. The calendar YHWH created is YHWH's calendar, the one who created it created the heavens and the earth, thus it is calculated by the heavens, the moon in this case. Our current calendar is the Gregorian calendar, which is an updated version of the Babylonian calendar. YHWH said the days end and begin at sunset, not the "Rabbis/Pharisees/Etc." Since the Pharisees/"Rabbis" made up their own, times/ways to keep their own made up "feast days", if you did not submit to the Pharisees they would seek to have you brought to trial, beat, imprisoned, or even killed you for not honoring their non-Scriptural days based in man’s tradition. The Talmud tells a story of Zacharyah, father of John the baptist, and OT prophet, disagreeing and wanting to follow YHWH Feast Days according to the Scriptures, and the head Pharisees told him, on threat of death, to appear in public on a Scriptural Feast Day in a way that the man can not honor YHWH as prescribed in the Scriptures, thus commanding him to disobey YHWH. They killed him for seeking to honor YHWH, His way and not their man made religious tradition. Yahshua spoke of this, but many have no clue of the history behind it;[/FONT]

Mat 23:35, "so that on you should come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Heḇel to the blood of Zeḵaryah, son of Bereḵyah, whom you murdered between the Dwelling Place and the altar."[/FONT]

2 Chronicles 24:20-21, "Then the Spirit of the Most High came upon Zeḵaryah son of Yehoyaḏa the priest, who stood above the people, and said to them, “Thus said the Most High, ‘Why are you transgressing the commands of [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]

To use Paul to trivialize the Sabbath or feasts is error IMO:

Colossians 2:8, “See to it that no one makes a prey of you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary matters of the world, and not according to Messiah.”[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]
Again are these Feast days “according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary matters of the world, and not according to Messiah?” or are they 100% founded in Scripture created by YHWH and 100% about the works of the Messiah?

Fulfilled already- To be fulfilled in the future
1. Passover/First-fruits – Yahshua's Sacrifice(Passover), burial and resurrection (First Fruits – presenting Himself to YHWH)
2. Feast of Unleavened Bread – Removal of sin by Yahshua's perfect work as the Passover Sacrifice
3. Feast of Weeks – The blessing Holy Spirit of YHWH, coming into our lives stronger than ever
4. Feast of Trumpets – Yahshua's return and gathering of the Saints
5. Day of Atonement – Yahshua leads the army of YHWH to destroy evil rulers of this world and satan is chained for 1,000 years
6. Feast of Tabernacles – Yahshua dwells on earth for 1,000 years teaching truth and righteousness
7. The Last Great Day – satan is loosed and swiftly destroyed, the Kingdom of YHWH reigns forever[/FONT]
7th day looks toward the 1,000 year reign and then eternal kingdom.
I know you seek to do God's will and you are right I don't know you. The questions were seeking a genuine answer and real life examples.
Fair enough, I just ask that if anything is said about me evidence of hwat I said wring is given with the rebuke so I may be corrected, if that can not be done I see it as false witness.
Some people claim to do God's will but will past a beggar on the street to invite the man in the Armani suit to their services.
.I do NOT believe you are one of thOSE People.
I get you on that, I am not perfect in everything, also if someone is a drug addict I dont beleive in giving them money, they need help but not money to spend on drugs, but rather need a drug program and clean living situation. A homeless mother I would help with money and if I could permanent help.
Just to be clear, but people need for us to testify how to love and holy lives.
I beleive people promoting good works are right, on here I dont like saying I did this or that, because popel will accuse bragging. I simply beleive we should p[romote what is right.
If someone were to ask you how do I keep the Sabbath holy, what would you tell them?
Give them 763 laws?
or just the Two commandments that Jesus gave us: love God and love other?
i wouls give them a Isaiah 58 type answer, tell them what the pharisees made it and how that is not the intent og YHWH's Sabbath. Simply it is for doing the will of Yah and not doing ones won will and calling it His will.
Going to worship service on Sat or Sunday does not mean a person keeps God's Sabbath or guarantees a place for them in Heaven because God looks at the inward heart not the outward actions.
I dont see the Sabbath as a "worship service" issuse, a worship service can be attended every ay of the week. I see the Sabbath as a set apart time for Yah's work ONLY, we can and should o things in Yah's will every day and time we are able, but setting aside His set apart time for ONLY His will is set in sapphire stine, and on my heart, again His way His way His way. With that said I am not perfect, thought I seek to grow in His guidance and ways more and more.
