Is the Lord's Sabbath in the OT still for God's people in the NT?
Luk 23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment

Post #132There's no need to apologise, I agree. Did you have a point that was not about my personal relationship with God?

Re: SABBATH...
Post #134No the Sabbath observation of a weekly Sabbath that prohibited work was part of the MOSAIC law that was written intially on tablets of stone and then on parchments (paper). The law Paul speaks about was a part of a new covenant between God and those that love God. This new arrangement was not written on stone tablets but symbolically written in the hearts of believing Christians.
Christians do not have to keep a weekly Sabbath, but can worship on any day of the week. Indeed their whole lives should be a "sabbath" since the real meaning of the Sabbath was to prioritize spiritual matters.

Post #138Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them; for I am Yahweh their God; but I will for their sake remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am Yahweh.JehovahsWitness wrote: ↑Fri Aug 16, 2024 12:31 pm God still keeps what? Did you have a scripture in mind?
