The Sabbath

Another beautiful day in the Glory of God, as he blesses everyone of us with his presence.
Oh how great you are Lord, God our father who watches over us and watches everything we do.
But the Lord asks just one thing of us, and that is...Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work; but the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that, in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it.
And again this is reiterated throughout the new testament, in Matthew 24:20, Mark 2:27-28, Hebrews 4:4, 9-10, and Colossians 1:16 KJV...
Pray ye that your flight be not in winter, neither on the sabbath day. The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: therefore the son of man is Lord also of the sabbath. For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.
There remaineth therefore a keeping of a sabbath to the people of God. For he that is entered unto his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. For by him were all things created, that are in heaven and that are in earth.
However during the later part of the 20Th century, the idea of keeping the Sunday a holy day, where by everything is closed seems now to be a distant memory.
The Devil wants us to go shopping on Sunday, large companies, big co-operations want to continue operating on a Sunday. So they tempt the workers giving them more money to work on the day God has made holy.
The Devil doesn't want us to worship God and keep this day a holy day for him. The Devil wants to open the doors and allow man to continue his greed and materialistic ways of the world.
In some ways I am pleased that I live in France as the country in a small way still observes the sabbath day as a holy day, ordered by the Pope in which the cardinals writes the following question and answer in their literature.
(Q) Have you any other ways of proving that the church has power to institute festivals of
precept?
(A) Had she not such power...she could not have substituted the observance of Sunday, the
first day of the week, for Saturday, the seventh day, a change for which there is no
scriptual authority.
Yet despite this we are all breaking the law of God as we worship him on the first day Sunday and not the Saturday. This is classed as Heresy, precept upon precept.
Daniel 7:25 KJV...
And he shall speak great words against the most high, and shall wear out the saints of the most high, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given unto his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
It is here that we can clearly see the Pope is the one Daniel is referring too. Who else has authority over all the catholic churches in Europe and the whole world. It is the Pope.
Jesus warns us of false prophets and false witnesses, as in Matthew 24:11...
And many false prophets shall rise and deceive many.
The catholic church is one of many that Jesus makes reference too. It has a bible that is different from the holy bible which is the word of God. Jesus warns us again in,
II Thessalonians 2:3-4...
And that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped: So that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
This is the clever work of the Devil, allowing a human being like you and I change the day of the sabbath, to dictate the catholic way of life and even persecute those who do not obey.
Because those who were persecuted know the truth as it is written in 1 Thessalonians 1:5-6...
For our Gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction with Joy of the Holy Ghost.
So who are you going to believe, a man who is like you and I of sin, heresy and lies, or the Gospel of truth and of the Holy Spirit that brings and fills our hearts with joy, peace and love for all that God is, and the things God created?
The choices are yours, but I pray that you will follow and make the right choice, because Jesus reminds us in Matthew 7:21-23...
Not everyone that saith unto me Lord, Lord shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my father which is in heaven.
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
And it is revealed to us in 1 Thessalonians 1:7-9...
When the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from the heaven with his mighty angels,
In flaming fire taking vengeance on that that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and away from the glory of his power.
