Dear Diamond; I don't know of a diplomatic way to say this but you are wrong, wrong and wrong. There is no such prophecy regarding the end of the Sabbath. None. I'm sure you would like for there to be one but alas, it is not there.
What does John 15:10 say?" If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in My love; even as I have have kept my Fathers commandments, and abide in His love."

And just what ARE the 'commandments'?


1 John 3:21-24

Dear friends,
if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him. And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.

You don't know what you don't know.

I will cite the prophecy of when the sabbath would be over, and it's fulfillment.

The crooked dealers with their dishonest scales in Amos 8 who begrudged even the sabbaths and feast days as interruptions in their business ask:

Amos 8:5
"When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the Sabbath, that we may set forth wheat?"

And this is Amos' answer to their question, "When will the new moon... and the sabbath ... be over?:

Amos 8:9
"And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in a clear day.
Amos prophesies a supernatural event at some undetermined future time. The only event ever known that fulfills it is that of the supernatural darkening of the sun for three hours, when Jesus was crucified:
Mark 15:33
And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour."

That is when the feast of new moons and the Sabbath ended.

The set order of Jewish serives enumerated by Paul in Colossians 2:14-16; daily, weekly, monthly and yearly, Paul says were done away with, nailed to the cross, in a passage which entails some of the exact language of this very same passage in Amos, namely; "new moon", and "Sabbath".

That which was "written and engraved in stones" is done away.

Cordially
