Introduction: Media today carries or promotes the fiction presented to humanity by the papacy. Many persons accepted and are accepting this lie without consulting the authority of worship. The Christian faith is founded in Christ Jesus, with all instructions and directives encapsulated in the Holy Bible. Let us hear the truth in the word from God.
1. How long has the Sabbath been kept? Genesis 2: 2 - 3
2. Apart from being called the Sabbath, what day of the week is this? Genesis 2: 3
3. Which of seven days is sanctified and blessed? Genesis 2: 3
Note: Let this be crystal clear to all. To complete our acquaintance with God, we must be keepers of the Sabbath. It is not only blessed and sanctified, but is also holy.
4.From the evidence above, discuss who the Sabbath was initially given to.
5. The Sabbath is a part of the law. Should a true worshipper leave this out of their actions? Matthew 5: 18, James 2: 10
Note: Some would argue that the commandments recorded in Exodus 20: 1 – 17, were given to the Jews only by Moses. There is absolutely no evidence in the scriptures to substantiate that claim. We must believe God's words and comply with them.
6. Is anyone exempt from the observance of this law? Isaiah 56: 2 – 6
Something to think about: If you believe the bible is the word of God, follow its instructions.
