Our God is an orderly God. His ways are never changing, straight and truthful; they are
simple and yet inherently wise. The message of salvation and instruction must be simple
enough for children to understand, that means hypocrisy (which is a mind splitter) has
no place in it. The Adversary, however, is a deceiver whose lies depend on the twisting of
God's simple truth. To understand them requires explanation, they are based on the
deceiving and covering up of what is truthful and easy to understand.
The adversary loves lengthy rationalizations and philosophies in order to justify the
twisting of truth, offering in its place, unnecessary complexities that conflict with Torah,
(found in), the Old Testament Biblical instruction. Afterall, the Word that became flesh,
(John 1:14) and which the Savior and his disciples followed was the Torah. The New
Testament was written arguably between 50- 200 hundreds of years after Christ died and cannot be attributed to the work of the disciple, (of the original 12) named Paul, although it is commonly assumed. The apostle Paul, given credit for 13 of the NT books refers to PAul the Apostle, previously known as Saul of Tarsus, a Jewish tax collector who persecuted many of Christ's loved ones and had Christians killed, but was later converted, see Acts 9.
A glaring example of the twisting of instruction still accepted by mainstream
Christianity today, is the reversal of the 4th Commandment. In Exodus chapter 20
Moses ascends Mount Sinai to receive the 10 Commandments from God after he lead
the Israelites out of Egypt, where they had been in rebellion and enslaved for 430 years.
The commandments were a formal codification of God's law that had existed and been
followed prior to Moses and would be used to correct, purify and prepare Israel for
entrance into the Promised Land during a 40 year period of desert wandering, which
was a consequence of their rebellion.
The emphasis on the 4th Commandment cannot be understated, it was the only
command they practiced together, the last day of each week. God provided manna for
them to eat in the desert, a miraculous heavenly food that appeared like dew on the
ground for the Israelites for 40 years, teaching them to collect a double portion every
Friday, so that they could rest from laboring on Saturday. This practice was necessary to
remind the people of how to live in alignment with God's instruction from the time they
left Egypt until the time they reached the border of Canaan.
The manna stopped the day after they entered and began eating the produce of the
Promised Land, Exodus 16:35. The number of 40 years is comparable to the 40 week
period of gestation a fetus experiences when being formed in the mother's womb.
Just like a brand new creation, the nation had to be reminded, retrained and readied to
receive the promise they longed for of their own land, where milk and honey would be
abundant.
The Sabbath Day is the 7th day of the week and called Saturday on our modern calendar,
that is the simple truth that even a child can understand; and in truth if all believers
worshiped on the Sabbath, the way God instructed, Israel and America would be in unison
with their worship being offered to the throne of God as one great unified body, set apart
by the very sign of salvation which the keeping of the Sabbath is meant to be. God is straightforward, the Adversary is a deceiver, a twister of truth and a divider of God's people.
A key biblical warning about changing times and seasons is found in Daniel 7:25, which
states a future oppressor will "try to change the set times and laws".
On this subject, a search on Google resulted in the perfect quote from A.I., "The change
from the Sabbath to Sunday was formalized by Roman Emperor Constantine in A.D. 321,
when he issued a civil decree making Sunday a day of rest. This was followed by further
church action, such as the Council of Laodicea around A.D. 364, which encouraged
Christians to rest on Sunday and not on the Sabbath. This process was influenced by
increasing anti-Jewish sentiment and the growing popularity of sun worship,
which Constantine, a pagan sun-worshipper who later converted to Christianity,
incorporated into Christianity for convenience. "
This change by Rome, effectively went to work right away to divide the worship of Our
Creator and taught people to mix their worship and prayer with the worship and
prayer arising on the day of pagan Sun worship. This change acted much like an adultery
in spirit, just like an offering up of some foreign incense to a foreign God.
Refusing to "REMEMBER" the Sabbath Day and instead choosing to go along with the
crowd to rest and worship on the first day of the week (Sunday) goes against the command
to keep the last day (Saturday) holy. This change has confused and divided believers for over
1700 years. It reverses God's simple instruction and is a confusing idea with no support
from scripture, Christ, or His disciples.
The fingerprint of Satan's mind game is dividing and reversing truth, God gave clear
instruction that even a child can understand with the help from any calendar, but
the enemy promotes the twisting of simple truth with complicated theories and
lengthy arguments that do not make any sense when you look at them with
a discerning eye.
Additionally, these ARE the End Times, and there is a Spiritual battle going on for
our hearts, minds and flesh that we cannot ignore. In order to be set apart from the world
and conquer, we must follow the instruction of our teacher Christ Yeshuah Messiah.
The New Testament has several passages warning against being caught off guard by
these times, urging believers to be watchful because "you do not know the day or the hour."
Matthew 24:21-22 describes great tribulation, and Matthew 24:42-44 advises to
"stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming," comparing His arrival
to a thief. John 14:15, which says, "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."
This verse, spoken by Christ, indicates that an expression of love for Him is found in
obeying His commands.
Again, the instruction is given in John 14:21, which says, "They who have My
commandments and keep them, it is they who love Me". This message is found over
and over again throughout the Bible and emphasized in the Savior's final teachings
to His followers and loved ones. Before his crucifixion he also promises to send
the Holy Spirit of Truth, an advocate to help those who follow his instruction and to
manifest himself through to those who love him, even until the End of Time and His return.
Remember again that in the book of Exodus, the Sabbath is a sign of a perpetual
covenant between God and the Israelites, meant to identify them as His people and
remind them that He is the one who sanctifies them. This sign is rooted in God's creation
account, where He rested on the seventh day after creating the heavens and earth in
six days. Observing the Sabbath is a strategic and necessary part of God's plan, it sets apart
from other nations and gods, and the requested way for us to acknowledge His role as
End of Time, but also into the Millennial kingdom where it will be kept still (Ezekiel 46:3).
Roman Emperor Constantine I made Sunday a day of rest in the Roman Empire on
March 7, 321 AD, effectively splitting the worship of the Creator and mixing it with the
day of pagan Sun worship, like an adulterating foreign incense the refusal to REMEMBER
the Sabbath and choose the first day of the week to rest and worship instead taints the
offering of keeping it and reverses the intention from the last day to the first day, which is
the fingerprint of Satan to reverse God’s ways directly.
Isn’t it interesting that the command begins with the word, REMEMBER, which in and
of itself implies that we would forget. Not only that, if you ask a minister who keeps Sunday
as to why this is the practice, their answer will be a lengthy sermon and deceptive
philosophical explanation that can be summed up like this;
“Christians primarily observe Sunday instead of Saturday because it commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which occurred on the first day of the week (Sunday), signifying
a new creation and a victory over death, making it the "Lord's Day" in Christian belief;
whereas Saturday, while considered the Sabbath in Judaism, Islam and the calendar,
is as the day of rest before the new beginning represented by Sunday.”
Pay close attention, because this argument has the hallmark of the serpent all over it,
firstly it is simply an excuse to make a new commandment instead of continuing to honor
the original as prescribed in scripture. Secondly, how does it make any sense to rest on the
day Christ rose instead of on the day He rested? Are we not taught to be in His image,
following example and instruction? This argument literally says o do the opposite of what He
did while admitting that is what it is, just a reversal, that is mentalism and witchcraft
level manipulation.
Also, rising from the grave was not just work to come back to
life and resurrect his body, but it was the beginning of a new period in history as Sunday is
the beginning of a new week. It takes mental gymnastics to justify reversing the command
and doing the opposite of what Christ did as a way of celebrating and honoring Him, but
that IS the way of the deceiver and the nature of the Satanic Kingdom. "Since, Christ slept
on the Sabbath and rose on Sunday, let's us rest on Sunday and party on the Sabbath!"
The local Satanic cult is laughing so hard they may be peeing their pants, because
it is such an obvious error and from a spiritual warfare perspective, demons MAJOR
in trying to get the faithful to break the 10 commandments, that is literally he baseline
for justifying attack from their kingdom and breaks the heart of our Lord to see how
little those who say they love him are willing to actually do as He said they must to
show they love him and there is no language barrier, it is just witchcraft, rebellion and
laziness that keeps people from seeking the truth and the kingdom of heaven until they
find, as our Lord instructed. Step away from the crowd, because the people at the narrow
gate are the one's getting the kingdom of heaven in their lives, not the followers of the
crowd and there is no reward for loving a lie, except to love the lie and miss the promise.
John 8:44: "He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it".
Revelation 21:8: Mentions that "all liars shall have their part in the second death (in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone)"
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12: "And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness"
