And the point of observing the *true* sabbath is what exactly?
Remember the Sabbath is a commandment..
To be fair, we were never taught it because Israel has abandoned their duty...
Tough to remember what we were never taught... so some have chosen Saturday, some Sunday... and there are tons of denominations that have lots of disagreements on this..
The day He set in the sky is not even mentioned as an option in churches.
Sabbath is a sign between Him and His people in scripture as well..
Exod 31:13 (NKJV) “Speak also to the children of Israel, saying: `Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it [is] a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that [you] may know that I [am] Yahweh who sanctifies you
Isai 56:3 (NKJV) Do not let the son of the foreigner Who has joined himself to Yahweh Speak, saying, “Yahweh has utterly separated me from His people”; Nor let the eunuch say, “Here I am, a dry tree.” 4 For thus says Yahweh: “To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, And choose what pleases Me, And hold fast My covenant, 5 Even to them I will give in My house And within My walls a place and a name Better than that of sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name That shall not be cut off. 6 “Also the sons of the foreigner Who join themselves to Yahweh, to serve Him, And to love the name of Yahweh, to be His servants—Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, And holds fast My covenant-
Isai 66:22 (NKJV) “For as the new heavens and the new earth Which I will make shall remain before Me,” says Yahweh, “So shall your descendants and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass [That] from one New Moon to another, And from one Sabbath to another, All flesh shall come to worship before Me,” says Yahweh..
His Sabbath is not found on a calendar that was not created by Him. He created His calendar and you and I can choose to observe what the world says and does or what He says.
Our Messiah, even in death, observed His Sabbath... the jewish scheduled passover(the 14th day) this year and its sabbath day( the 15th) was nowhere near the pope appointed saturday or sunday this year..
On His calendar, Pentecost hasn’t even happened yet..
That is in the rearview mirror for Jews and Christians..
That was a rather big day for Israel and His church..it is certainly observed today as the church’s birthday..
Maybe it is prophectic that the worldly church has forgotten or been blinded from observing His calendar and timekeeping.
How else to expain the church having a substitute ‘birthday’ for themselves to go along with the substitute days they have for the other days they observe as holy? It fits a pattern...
But He will restore all things... and we will all learn all things before we become His bride..
Or we will be foolish virgins that get shut out..
