Why the weekly Sabbath or Saturday, is the Lord's Day.

[Hobie]

The Sabbath is the Lords Day of the Lord thy God, not Moses' sabbath, or the Jews sabbath, or anyone else's sabbath.

Leviticus 23:3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.

We see the same.

Deuteronomy 5:12-13
12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee. 13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work: 14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.

Again the same.

Exodus 31:13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.

It was not 'Moses' sabbath.

Leviticus 19:1-2
1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God am holy. 3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God.

Leviticus 19:30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.

Leviticus 26:2 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.

Isaiah 56:4-6
4 For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant; 5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off. 6 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;

Ezekiel 20:12-13
12Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them. 13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.

Ezekiel 20:16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.

Ezek 20:19-24
19I am the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them;
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. 21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness. 22 Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen, in whose sight I brought them forth. 23 I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries; 24 Because they had not executed my judgments, but had despised my statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols.

Ezekiel 22:8 Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my sabbaths.

Ezekiel 22:26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

Ezekiel 23:38 Moreover this they have done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.

The Lord claims the sabbath as His very own. It is a day, therefore it is literally, the Lord's day. This clear so how many times must the Lord call the sabbath His day to understand that there is only one day in the scriptures that would be referred to as the Lord's day? Other than the seventh day sabbath, the Lord's day can also refer to the day on which He will return to this earth. That is all. Sunday, or the first day of the week is never referred to as the Lord's day in the scriptures.

This title was only applied to Sunday later on, to cover their deception as they allowed paganism into the church.

So, if you worship on a Sunday....does God not welcome your worship?

Is there any New Testament verses on the subject?

What does the commandments say to do on the other six days...?

As for the New Testament, one has to read and discern what it says...

Acts 13:42
And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

Acts 13:44
And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.

Are you saying God doesn't welcome your worship if you worship on a Sunday?

Seventh-day Adventists teach that the near the end of time the "mark of the best" of Revelation 14 will be placed upon those who worship on Sunday instead of Saturday.

Okay, two simple questions.

Saturday is the Sabbath of the Lord. (I still maintain not necessarily because I strill Maintain the Sabbath came at the end of the 6 creation periods but that is for another time and thread.)

So this time period of the Lord God on high's sabbath rest.

Have you ever paid close attention to what KJ says in Gen 2 vs 2 ... 2And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

Vs 2 says On the seventh day God ended His work. This is odd phrasing if all work was completed on day 6.

1611 version says 2And on the seuenth day God ended his worke, which hee had made: And he rested on the seuenth day from all his worke, which he had made.

KJ was also Mrs Whites choice of translations.

The reason the wording is odd is it seems that God may have wrapped work up on the 7th and was not completely a day of rest.

Anyway... is the following true?

Seventh-day Adventists believe that "works of the law" refer to the commandments given by God, particularly the Ten Commandments, which they see as binding and essential for moral conduct. They emphasize that while salvation is by grace and not through works, obedience to God's law is a natural response to that grace and reflects a transformed character

If, then, we do not need "works" for salvation, if we do not wordship[ on Saturday.... will we lose our salvation?

And if the Sabbath was commanded by God, the heavenly father as His day.... How does Jesus fit into the Sabbath as His resurrection was
done after the Sabbath, originally?

This is confusing for I was raised to worship Jesus as well as the Father.

To be honest i don't really think God cares if one worships on a Saturday, Sunday or a Thursday....

To build an entire theology around this Saturday worship...then fight it tooth and nail...is ridiculous.
To top that off many SDA'ers don't preach Jesus is God. Some do. There are several "one true God" mantra people who post here and post only on that subject.

I agree with you one God does not care so long as we worship.

Personally because He gave us Jesus, without whom none of us would have hope, I believe that the day we acknowledge, until someone can prove otherwise is the day we should worship.

I would run from any church that preaches a form of legalism.

John 3:16 doesn't mention that worshiping on Saturday is a requirement for salvation.
