"As the new heavens and the
new earth that I
make will endure before me," declares the LORD, "so will your name and
descendants endure. From one New Moon to another and from one
Sabbath
to another, all mankind will come and bow down before me," says
the LORD Isa 66:22,23 (1) |

D. L. Moody (1837-1899) made the following appeal in regard to the
Sabbath: "I honestly believe that this
commandment is just as binding today as it ever was. I have talked with
men who have said that it has been abrogated, but they have never been
able to point to any place in the Bible where God repealed it. When
Christ was on earth, He did nothing to set it aside; He freed it from
the traces under which the scribes and Pharisees had put it, and gave it
its true place. 'The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the
Sabbath.' It is just as practicable and as necessary for men today as
it ever was-in fact, more than ever, because we live in such an intense
age. The Sabbath was binding in Eden, and it has been in force ever
since. The fourth commandment begins with the word remember, showing
that the Sabbath already existed when God wrote this law on the tables
of stone at Sinai. How can men claim that this one commandment has been
done away with when they will admit that the other nine are still
binding? I believe that the Sabbath question today is a vital one
for the whole country. It is the burning question of the present time.
If you give up the Sabbath the church goes; if you give up the church
the home goes; and if the home goes the nation goes. That is the
direction in which we are traveling. The church of God is losing
its power on account of so many people giving up the Sabbath, and using
it to promote selfishness."
Dwight L.
Moody (1837-1899) |
God is the source of all life. In memory of creation God invited us to
celebrate the 7th day of each week with Him. We also have the
opportunity to be recreated -
born again. The life
and death of Jesus makes this recreation possible, our sins makes this
necessary. The Sabbath is our anniversary
of becoming a child of God. God loves us so much that He invites us to
put aside the cares of this world and spend one day a week resting in
His love, don't miss the blessing. |
"It is the first and highest
duty of every rational being to learn from the Scriptures
what is truth, and then to walk in the light and encourage others to
follow His example. We should day by day study the Bible diligently,
weighing every thought and comparing scripture with scripture. With
divine help we are to form our opinions for ourselves as we are to
answer for ourselves before God."
