The Sabbath is made for man, man is not made for the sabbath.

[SEK.]

"Come unto me and i will give you rest", while before Jesus was here God said we should come to him for our perfect rest.

[sebastiaocarvalho]

The Saturday mentioned by Paul is not the Sabbath related to the 4th commandment, but rather the feasts of the Old Testament. The Sabbath was not abolished by Christ.

[melmis]

We are keeping the sabbath by putting our trust in Jesus. He is our rest. He is our peace.

[bensonhoon]

Christians do keep Sabbaths. But the way we keep it is not outwardly but spiritually by keeping Jesus as Jesus is The Lord of The Sabbath.

[Cloudies]

God said Remember the Sabbath Day to Keep it Holy is the 4th Commandment. It's crazy he said it's obligatory to keep 9 out of the 10 Commandments but James 2:10 states For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. Even the rich young ruler knows that we should keep all 10.

Why do people have issues with the one commandment that used the word REMEMBER 🤔

[Noah-qoqu]

I'm so glad I actually went to read Colossians 2 after seeing this. Such a good chapter

[chloemartel]

Jesus is God's rest. He ushered it in at His coming. The Sabbath points to Jesus. Read the Bible and notice Jesus did the same on the Sabbath as He did on other days of the week: heal, eat, do the Father's work. Live in the full truth Jesus brought.

Perhaps it's worth thinking about what it even means to keep the Sabbath. Taken to its extreme as many believed, back then, you couldn't do anything all day long or else it was considered work and a violation of the Sabbath. When boiled down, it's a day of rest and worship to the Lord. Most Christians are doing that anyway. Arguing over whether it's Saturday or Sunday is pointless.

This is more a matter if you believe we have to live by the law for salvation or to win God's approval. The New Covenant ushered in the time of grace through faith by His work and fulfillment of the law. We can not be saved or keep ourselves saved by keeping the law. That is a works based salvation and is robbery of Christ's work on the cross.

Yes we repent and yes we follow the word and teachings of Christ but we're fooling ourselves to believe we can ever live by the law and please God that way. "In our flesh dwells no good thing", and we sin in thought, speech and action all the time. Only God is good, and we'll need a lot more than keeping the Sabbath to measure up to His standards.

The Sabbath that was talked about by Paul in Colossians 2 was the Sabbath feast days there was the weekly Sabbath which is Saturday and is still obligatory and is still a commandment from the 10 in Exodus, the feast days are not obligatory anymore.

[Oscar.Carmona]

Here are 6 verses where I see Paul observing Sabbath. How do we reconcile this?

Acts 13:14:
"But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down."Acts 13:42:
"So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath."Acts 13:44:
"On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God."Acts 16:13:
"And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there."Acts 17:2:
"Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures."Acts 18:4:
"And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks."

Did you know the 10 commandments were not done away with rather refreshed & it was sacrificial law that ended??? Or that Sabbath is Saturday dawn to dawn & there is no work/buying/selling?

[MercenaryTX]

Dudes from 2, 000 years ago would think we rest all 7 days in AC and sitting on the couch.

[CaptainBars]

Back in the Old Testament, breaking the Sabbath was punishable by death as per Exodus 31:14 & 35:2, whereas Sabbath-breaking is not condemned in any way, shape, or form in the New Testament. Various other passages in the New Testament list numerous types of sinners who will not inherit the kingdom unless they repent and discontinue (see Mark 7:21-23, Romans 1:28-32, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, Galatians 5:19-21, 1 Timothy 1:9-10, 2 Timothy 3:1-5, and Revelation 21:8 & 22:15), but none of those lists ever mention Sabbath-breakers or even those who eat bacon and any other meats that the Torah forbids. The reason? Those rules were abolished when Christ went to the cross.

This is a heartbreaking misunderstanding. Sabbath is a blessing. There’s are other commandments that aren’t repeated explicitly in the NT, but that doesn’t make them null and void. The letter to the Colossian church was speaking to a mostly gentile audience. As they were grafted into the faith, they likely faced pressure and judgement from their very pagan friends and family. But those believers could be encouraged to not get downhearted for being judged for celebrating the God given festivals.
Please, pray sincerely for clarification on these matters.
For further information I recommend Unlearn the Lies or Tom Bradford’s Torah class, lesson 1 in Genesis (he reviews some common misconceptions).

[truthministries]

You are talking about ceremonial sabbaths like passover, unleavened bread etc and not the weekly seventh day Sabbath as this is still a command.

[kimosabi]

We weren’t part of the chosen people God enter into a covenant to follow His commandments. Why pretend we were ?

[BriannaColeman-oesn]

Jesus filled the entire law. Rest in Him

[oreally]

That doesn't mean: Don't go to church." 😊
