Jesus said that there would only be one sign given, that of Jonah,

Mt 12:40 “As Jonah was 3 days and 3 nights in the belly of the fish, so shall the Son of Adam be 3 days and 3 nights in the heart of the earth”

Jn 11:9 “Are there not 12 hours in a day (daytime, the time of light)? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”

So it would seem that man is still having trouble counting hours and days. If the Son of God says 3 days AND 3 nights and that there are 12 hours to each of them, as Peter and the other apostles said, “we ought to obey God rather than men.” (Acts 5:29-32)

So to say that the 4th Commandment, the Commandment that contains the sign, the mark of God's people is no longer valid for those who believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob, this is literally taking His Name in vain. Have you not read Isa 56 and the command and promise to the Gentiles concerning His Sabbath?

I thought the SIGN or the MARK of God's People was CIRCUMSION?


Genesis 17:10-14

King James Version (KJV)

10 This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.

11 And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.

12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed.

13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

14 And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
