SABBATH...

Post #1

Post by Capbook »

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

Sorry, for some reason I thought you were referring to the fault being with the commandments themselves. I guess I had verse 8 in mind.

Point well made. If, upon their creation, animals were programmed to defecate they would certainly have been programmed to eat.

It is a known scientific fact.
In fact, if both we and animals adapt to eat things other than what we normally were designed to eat, how do we do it on God's instructions.

There is no scripture that says, God instructed animals to eat each other.
Animals have adapted to eating various things. Bacteria for example, devours cotton, and plastic. Certainly, God did not instruct them to, but the genes did.
All the information is in the DNA, and is passed on to offspring.

I can't picture Adam eating a rock, and they obviously learned to avoid poisonous foods, in order to have survived.

What does any of this have to do with the Sabbath? Rule #4 - "Stay on the topic of debate. If a topic brings up another issue, start another thread."
