GOD'S SABBATH AND THE REAL TRUTH OF COL 2:14-17 WHO DO WE BELIEVE GOD or MAN?

[lightbearer]

Where is the Church commanded to keep the Sabbath day holy under the New Covenant?

Heb 4:10: For he that is entered into his rest [received the Gospel], he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from His.
Because of receiving the Gospel we cease from our own works as GOD did from His. "As is" is a direct comparison. So with that you must ask yourself how and when did God cease from his own works?
The answer to that is recorded in Gen 2.... on the Seventh Day, And God did rest from all His work on the seventh day (see Hebrews Verse 4 and Genesis Chapter 2:1-3).
God Is a Spiritual Being he is always in the state of Spiritual Rest. HE did not enter into the Rest of the GOSPEL. On the Seventh Day the Sabbath he ceased from the physical labor of creation. And this is recorded in Genesis 2.

Therefore they that have received the Gospel Rest, cease from their own physical work as God did from His physical work on the 7th day Sabbath. And this is, was and will continue to be done on the Seventh day of the week.

you should really choose a translation that doesn't blaspheme in its rendering of this verse.

it's Joshua, who was not able to give rest, not Jesus: He does not fail where everything else, does

The Text is referring to the son of Nun. However Yoshua is Jesus' Hebrew name. The English translation of the Greek is Jesus. 935 times it is translated Jesus and if memory serves me right only two times is it referring to someone other than are Savior.

Blaspheme? Hmm....if anything it seems to me to know HIS name is Yoshua and to call HIM Jesus would be blaspheme.

RED: Moses broke the 6th commandment and killed thousands. Perhaps the God of Moses is the God of Islam! They are killing thousands as well in the name of God.

It would be nice to see on a Christian forum the teaching of Christ who said to the people around him,

"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.(Joh 8:44)

Romans 6:23
For the wages of SIN is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord

Matthew 7
21, Not EVERYONE that saith unto me Lord Lord shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven but he that doeth the will of my father in Heaven.
22, Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works?23, And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity (SIN).

1 John 2
3, And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4, He that said, I know him, and keeps not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

Only God's Word is true and we should BELIEVE and FOLLOW him who calls us in LOVE to LOVE another.

Those who CONTINUE in KNOWN UNREPENTANT SIN will NOT enter into the KINGDOM of HEAVEN.

.......................

God's 4th commandment is one of the ten (Exodus 20:8-11) If we knowingly break it when God asks us not to we stand guilty before God of committing sin (James 2:8-12). If we do not seek him in repentance and forgiveness we are in danger of the Judgement (Hebrews 10:26-27)

Sunday worship is a tradition and teaching of man that has led many to break the commandments of God. Jesus says that if we follow the traditions of man that break the commandments of God we are not following God (Matthew 15:3-9)

There is not one scripture in all of God's Word that says that God's 4th Commandment is now ABOLISHED and we are now commanded to KEEP Sunday as a Holy day.

Who should we follow the teachings and traditions of men or the Word of God? Who should we believe the Words of men or the Word of God?

In times of ignorance God winks at but now ,<when a KNOWLEDGE of the truth has come> calls all men everywhere to REPENT (FOLLOW) (Acts 17:30-31).

Is that the measure of what constitutes work? Whether one is PAID for one's efforts? I have never seen it presented that way before. Why do you present it that way now?

It has always been that way and includes all uneccessary work that can be done on any other day of the week. Read God's 4th Commandment from Exodus 20:8-11. No Work is referring to any secular, business (this includes buying and selling, shopping) or uneccessary domestic work .

if a missionary in a foreign land buys some food so that they will then have strength to peach the gospel in a nearby village, is that spiritual work or physical?

Neither, it is a sin and breaking God's 4th commandment as it can be done on the preparation day or the next day after the Sabbath.

 

[PS]

oi!

When Jesus said to them, “I AM” they drew back and fell to the ground.
(John 18:6)​

I wonder what they would have done if Jesus had said I am Yahovah.

(Notice, he didn't)

The rest of creator God is eternal, the same as for those who rest in Him.

Those who SIN against God have no rest because they are still in their SINS and do not KNOW God.

I noticed you left out this next section of the post you were quoting from and most of the post.

Isaiah 57
20, But the wicked (SINNERS) are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
21, There is no peace, said my God, to the wicked.

1 John 2
3, And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4, He that said, I know him, and keeps not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

Those who CONTINUE in KNOWN UNREPENTANT SIN will NOT enter into the KINGDOM of HEAVEN.

[PS]

You believe this why?

What in the Holy Writ brought you to this?

I should be asking you to prove Yahweh is the father of Jesus.

Or are you going to call Jesus a liar for telling the Jews, their Father was the Devil.

You are the children of your father, the Devil, and you want to follow your father's desires. From the very beginning he was a murderer and has never been on the side of truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he is only doing what is natural to him, because he is a liar and the father of all lies. (Joh 8:44)

Is the LORD mentioned here Jesus' FATHER

Exod 3:2 And appeared to him an angel of the LORD in flaming fire from out of the bush. and he saw that the bush burned with fire, but the bush did not incinerate.

 

[PS]

No you are just confused.

Nonsense..

And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. (Exo 3:14)

That is Jesus. Jesus is the I AM.

No you did not; you twisted it by pulling it out of context. "As is" is a direct comparison. God is a Spiritual Being HE is always Spiritual. He rested from HIS physical work on the Seventh Day. If we receive the Gospel; the Spiritual rest, we cease from our secular work as GOD did from HIS. This Is, was and will forever be on the Seventh Day Sabbath.

So LORD IN verse 3:2 is Jesus?

Chapter and verse to back up your fantasy.

God's work was finished, His rest is forever, not one day, neither was the universe created in 6 earth days. Our rest will be forever one day. (One day meaning a period of time.)

Spiritual beings don't do physical work, so cannot rest from "HIS physical work."

 

[Joseppi]

We are to work the works of GOD everyday through Christ through GOD. The Sabbath is special though. For the LORD had blessed the seventh day and he hallowed it, because in it he rested from all of his works that God created to make. (Gen 2:3 FCAB)

He hallowed it. Set it apart for Holy use. One day we are called to rest from the works of our hands and have a day in fellowship with our fellow brothers and sisters in harmony with GOD worshiping HIM and enjoying Creation.

And when the case arises we as Christ through Christ will minister to each other as the Spirit deems fit to the edification and furtherance of HIS Kingdom.

Why did Jesus break the sabbath?

 

[PS]

So LORD IN verse 3:2 is Jesus?

In verse 3:2. Baal is also called LORD.

Like I said you are confused. "As is" is a direct comparison. GOD only ceased from HIS physical work on the Seventh Day. He is a Spiritual Being HE does not enter into a Spiritual rest. He is the Spiritual rest. So if we receive the Gospel rest; the Spiritual rest we also cease from our work as GOD did from HIS. And that is, was and will forever be on the Seventh day.

In regards to your confusion in relation to the Creation week the LORD had set tail markers that confine what HE meant by the Day. HE mentions Evening and morning; dusk and dawn to limit and confine a day to one revolution of this planet we live on.

I'm sure the planet we live on, that did not exist would have great difficulty revolving round anything for any length of time.

What is this "As is" you keep talking about?
