The Holy Spirit agrees with scripture. It does not add or take away. Scripture does not tell us the hour that Christ arose, if it was important we would be told. Scripture tells us just when it was discovered that he rose. It has nothing at all to do with the marvelous fact that Christ rose and is alive today. It also has nothing to do with the seventh day that God created the Sabbath.

The Holy Spirit also will speak of Jesus as Jesus said in John chapter 14. The Holy Spirit will lead you and guide into all Truth.
The Truth is Jesus literally has risen from the dead. IN three days as HE said HE would. It has everything to do with the Truth that we serve a Risen Lord and Savior. Everything hangs on that. I think Jesus is the authority on the topic.

You don't need the Law when you live by faith that God is perfect, our desires were CHANGED we want to be like God. That is unless you love the world more than God. Sin nature is different from willful sinning. During the 1000 year reign, when Satan is locked up, there will be no willful sin, but there will still be sin nature, or men whoo sin by omission, only God is perfect, so not thinking about another persons needs might be a selfish sin of omission, but those living at that time will not go around willfully lusting, hating, etc. etc.
In the Holy Spirit, we do the same now, but Satan still can tempt us, so there is a continual battle, but via the holy spirit we can overcome the liar. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. I wonder if people have ever thought that through to its logical end? If I sat around talking to you every day, bugging you, and it agitated you, I would keep doing it if that is how I git my jollies. But the moment you ignored me for 24 hours straight, then a week straight, I would get tired of running my mouth and leave you be. That is what that verse means, if our hearts are set towards Jesus/God, then Satan will flee us, e may come back periodically with a grand scheme to make us fall. But if our hearts are set towards God/Jesus, the Law means nothing, we are justified by the Blood, not the Law.
I have been preaching this word might near 35 years brother. The Law is null and void, as a matter of fact it was never the Covenant, Abrahams Covenant was always THE PROMISE.

I am trying to talk people into believing scripture just as it is, not adding to it or taking anything away. You are telling people how to live their life when it is none of your business.
I am 96, completely blind in one eye and the other is mostly gone. I only hear when people shout. I cannot walk but am in a wheel chair. I have no family at all and I have outlived my friends so I am in a care home. And you are criticizing and judging me for being housebound?

One thing I have noticed personally. Like other words meaning have been changed. The word sabbath is a non time sensitive. if we assign time to it it destroys the meaning. The 7th day was the day he decided . He does not tire. He could of created the world in one minute . Seven is set aside for another function .(complete. )
Rest was replaced by a time sensitive word (week) . Its seems the paraphrasers had no idea of what to do being stuck on the 7 th. day. So they changes the word Sabbath (sávvato) to Week . The word week ( evdomáda ) It was not part of the Greek in the original autograph. It came much later.
The Youngs literal has it as it seems correct , But in the other place where the word sabbath (rest with no other meaning added . He also reverts to weeks . .Therefore destroying the foundation of the word. Again not a time sensitive word in any way shape or form.
Matthew 28 Young's Literal Translation (YLT) And on the eve of the sabbaths, at the dawn, toward the first of the sabbaths, came Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre,
Matthew 28 King James Version (KJV) In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
The first of new era of sabbaths would be the proper Changing it to weeks causes many problems
The fast, three meals on the sabbath were Kosher. The man bragging he ate only two and paid the tithe on the same day . Not week . Sabbath
Not eating twice a week is not the one fast
Luke 18:12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all things -- as many as I possess.

God used the things of this world that we are born to understand to explain the eternal world of the spirit. He meant for us to see the eternal through the temporary things of this world. The sacrificial system was a symbol of Christ, the cutting of foreskin was a symbol of belonging to God, eating foods from animals that don't eat garage was a symbol of keeping our minds pure.
God's time is eternal time, God lives in a different world than we do. Keeping one day in a 7 day week is to be used as a symbol of recognizing the truth of the Lord. We are to pass by many of the symbols he gave to the reality of what they symbolized, but some symbols we are told to keep, and through them we are to recognize the truth of the Lord.

Why do you think the translators used the word Week 9 times to replace the word Sabbath"? When ever we hear his word and do not harden our hearts we have entered his rest.
WE do not seek the approval of Constantine.
Did Constantine change the word Rest to Week and destroy the meaning? Sabbath does not mean the last day of the week. Neither does mean 1st day.
In that sense any day a person does not have to do their normal work can be set aside to do the work of bringing the gospel, the true fast.

Long ago I gave up the traditional churches. Those with pews and songs and preachers with
doctors in their title as though that gives them credibility as they walk out to their Cadillacs
with air conditioners haven spoken the book that everyone is capable of reading themselves
I have gone to a group church with twenty people at most. I feel Jesus there and not someone
yelping at the crowd threatening they are going to hell. You're going to hell they utter. You
sinned, you are wrong, God is going to kill you. I have heard that many, many times believe
it or not.

I hate, i despise your religious festivals;
your assemblies are a stench to me.
Even though you bring me burnt offerings and grain offerings,
I will not accept them...
Away with the noise of your songs!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.
But let justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream!
(Amos 5:21-24)
