Our study of the Sabbath must begin in Genesis. In this video, we see that in the beginning the focus was on God's rest, not man's. And the ultimate purpose for the seventh day transcends the Jewish Sabbath observance.
I am really enjoying your teachings. It gives me totally new insights on understanding God's Word. I too was reading the Bible systematically and created my own systems on which I focused. Thanks Doug, please continue with Romans 8, 9, 10 in your current series...
We will need to understand few Bible verses seeing that even between seventh day adventists exist debates about WHICH DAY of the week is Sabbath now after our calendar made by the Pope Gregory : Luke 4:16 And he(Jesus) came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as HIS CUSTOM(εἰωθὸς) WAS, he went into the synagogue on the SABBATH day, and stood up for to read. Reading Luke 4:16 you will never dare to insult your DIVINE Jesus saying that He was not able to know that He have a false CUSTOM because the seventh day Sabbath He was keeping in a false day. Matthew 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day. Reading Matthew 24:20 you will never dare to insult your DIVINE Jesus saying that as DIVINE He was not able to know that He will command His disciples(Matt 24:1) and their first Christianity to pray on the next 40 years AFTER cross for a false Sabbath day following His false CUSTOM(Luke 4:16) because the Sabbath was in a false day. As intelligent reader you will never dare to insult your DIVINE Jesus saying that He was not able to know that commanding His disciples in Matt 24:20 to pray for this one Sabbath will be added also the first Christianity to pray on the next 40 years AFTER cross when Roman’s army will come to destroy Jerusalem(Matt 24:2) and to kill the Jews. You will never dare to insult your DIVINE Jesus saying that He commanded to pray 40 years AFTER cross for a Sabbath day which SUNday worshippers will abolish on the cross. Acts 17:2 And Paul, as his CUSTOM(εἰωθὸς) WAS, went in unto them, and three SABBATH days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, Reading Acts 17:2 you will never dare to say that your wise Paul followed a false CUSTOM given by your DIVINE Jesus because he was also not able to know that the Sabbath is false being a false day. Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time hath in EVERY city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues EVERY SABBATH day. Reading Acts 15:21 you will never dare to say that also the disciples was in EVERY Sabbat following a false CUSTOM given by your DIVINE Jesus because they was also not able to know that the Sabbath is false being a false day. Seeing Acts 15:21 about EVERY Sabbat you cannot dare to say that existed ONE Sabbath which was ignored. And now since you will insist to see your DIVINE Jesus and His disciples and also the first Christianity having a FALSE CUSTOM I will not ask you to tell what is remaining for you as not being FALSE but I will ask you to write me even one Bible verse to explain HIS SIGN(Exodus 31:13-17 Ezekiel 20:12,20) which will make YOU TO MOURN as being a SUNday worshiper in Matthew 24:30 SEING HIS SIGN on the day when in Revelation 11:19(Rev 16:17,18 Hebr 9:4) will make HIS SIGN as highly visible for YOU to make YOU TO MOURN SEEING HIS SIGN(Exodus 31:13-17 Ezekiel 20:12,20). Matthew 24:30 And then shall appear THE SIGN of the Son of man in heaven: and shall ALL the tribes of the earth MOURN, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Revelation 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was SEEN in his temple the ARK OF His COVENANT(Exod 31:16): and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail(Rev 16:17,18 Hebr 8:4). Please show me any other Bible verses as explanation for Matt 24:30 when as SUNday worshipper you refuse to see in Matt 24:39 HIS SIGN being explained by Exodus 31:13-17 Ezekiel 20:12,20. Ezekiel 20:20 And hallow My sabbaths; and they shall be a SIGN between Me and you, that ye may know that I am the LORD your God(Ezek 20:12 Exod 31:13-17). Since more than 15 years never existed one SUNday worshippers able to give me even one Bible verse about HIS SIGN able to make ALL of them to MOURN SEEING HIS SIGN in Matthew 24:30(Rev 11:19). &When you want to see who are ALL nations MORNING in Matthew 24:30 you must only go in Google to read Pope’s SUNday law having commandments about resting on SUNday for climate changing. Which later will continue with going to church on SUNday to be taught about the new Chrislam religion using the new Bible made by AI super intelligent robot with the purpose of ecumenical union of all religions to exist only Chrislam religion for the paradise of their new world order.
Wow! My brother! Did you just say God created and blessed/sanctified the 7th day in preparation for the Jewish people? That is one enormous leap brother.
God blessed and hallowed the seventh day for man. Does God need to be blessed and sanctified, or is he blessed and sanctified already? The answer should be quite simple.
Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, *every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it and taketh hold of my covenant* Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for *all* people. {Isaiah 56:6-7}
One comment: John the Baptist didn’t know Jesus?? He was His cousin. I am sure he knew him, especially as Mary and Elizabeth had such a close relationship. Maybe John didn’t know Him as ‘the “Lamb of God” until the day of His revelation to Israel, but I’m sure he knew Him.
In the 4th commandment is found seal of God's law. Take away the 4th commandment (God forbid) and the commandments can be claimed to be authored by anyone, or any organization.
@@waltpro1945 And the new. For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. {Hebrews 9:16-17} And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment. {Luke 23:56} ^ The new Covenant (testament) had already been sprinkled with the blood of Christ. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
It might appear that way on the surface. However, the 4th commandment was the sign of the old covenant, which makes it a ritual law (not moral) law. Christ fulfilled what the ritual laws pointed toward in his death. Just like it's not outward circumcision (sign of the abrahamic covenant) that matters but rather "circumcision of the heart," so too it's the sabbath rest of the heart in Christ's finished work that matters, not physical sabbath-keeping.
Interesting study. A different perspective on God's Sabbath. The Sabbath is not completely understood by most people and should be taught in line with Scripture. God blessed the Seventh Day and sanctified it, making the day holy. God blessed that period of time and commanded mankind to keep it holy. Jesus said in Mark 2:27 that the Sabbath was made for man (Greek: ἄνθρωπος i.e. anthropos) meaning human beings. Since the word used means human beings it stands to reason that the Sabbath was not limited to the Hebrew nation, or Jews. Shabbat was given for mankind's benefit. You are correct in saying that the Sabbath belongs to God. Jesus in Mark 2:28 said "the Son of Man is Lord also of the Sabbath." Scripture repeatedly records God referring to the Sabbath as His (Exodus 31:13; Leviticus 19:3, 30; Leviticus 26:2; Ezekiel 22:8, 26; etc etc).
But it makes more sense for us to rest on the seventh day which god himself rest and bless.. also if u talking about commend theres nowhere in the bible say Sabbath on Sunday am I right?
Nowhere does the Bible move the sabbath to Sunday. Also, nowhere does the Bible require all men to rest on the seventh day. That was exclusive to Israel. I did a series on the Sabbath question a few weeks ago. You may find it helpful.
@@CrossToCrownLive I see.. I respect your opinion but for me personally I think Saturday is the true Sabbath becuz our creator himself bless the seventh day and he rest after all the work he does...
@@CrossToCrownLive I'll check out your other video but where in the Bible does it say it's exclusive to Jews? Jesus followed the sabbath and kept it holy and never said to stop on his account.
Interesting study, I love how you are looking at Sabbath in context to Christ and the salvation story. Sabbath is so much more that just a day. Since there was No command in Gen.2:1-3 to man to keep Sabbath you say that it is Not for man are you saying it was never kept until the Exodus? However in Jesus own words "Man was not made for the Sabbath but Sabbath was Made for man" Mark 2:27. When was the Sabbath MADE? Back in Gen 2:1-3 so it WAS for man so did they keep Sabbath before Exodus? What about Gen 4:3 "at the end of days" Cane and Abel brought their sacrifices to God, end of days could refer to the end of the week or on the weekly Sabbath, so perhaps they brought the sacrifices to God on the Seventh Day Sabbath? Sabbath may have been kept up to the captivity in Egypt and then forgotten, thus needed to be codified so they would not forget again. Just some thoughts of mine....
Fascinating study of the "Sabbath," leading us to Jesus. Not been able to join live presentations as we are in process of moving to Boise but still very much enjoying the teaching. At the end, it would be great to have 4-5 verses to cite to fellow believers, developing this progression from God's blessing and sanctifying the Sabbath to commandments to Jews (laws preparing them for Jesus) to Jesus' own statements to Hebrews 4:10, summarizing the biblical theology view of the Sabbath.
For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. {Hebrews 9:16-17} And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day 👉according to the commandment. {Luke 23:56} ^ The new Covenant (testament) had already been sprinkled with the blood of Christ. A last will in testament is binding by law.
The first day of the week, the day of the sun, was observed by pagans for 4,000 years. Long before Rome thinks to change the (law) sabbath of the Lord.
God's Sabbath!!! Jesus answers the Sabbath was made for man, for man it is God's Holy day repeated through the whole Scripture. When answers Satan: it is written, man shall not live on bread alone but by EVERY WORD OF GOD!

I think that people tries to make everything about themselves, so people go back even to creation and try to use the seventh day on creation and crank it to make it a justification for pushing Sabbath keeping

@@larrybedouin2921 oh, that's why you responded that way. I thought you responded the way you did because you were behind what I was saying. God has always willed for a people to walk in such a way that every day is alike. Only in will worship in personal manner for oneself, is one day specific instead of every day being holy. God has sanctified the one and the rest for those of us who have entered into His rest by becoming born again and not disbelieving. We enter into fear when we believe.
