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. 14 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you.
the fifth and sixth truth about the sealing is contained in the following two points #[5] It is not necessary for one to be a part of the 144,000 in order to be sealed. The 144,000 would be anointed by God to do a specific work during the closing scenes of earth’s history but they represent a very miniscule number of all those who will ultimately be sealed. And #[6] All those who will be sealed in the last days, under the loud cry, must be found keeping the Sabbath for it is the one distinctive sign that would distinguish those who are loyal to God from those who are not.
As was stated before, the seal of God is the permanent presence of The Holt Ghost, residing in our hearts, but the keeping of the Sabbath shows that we honor God in His capacity as Creator of the heavens and the earth. Many persons worship God as Redeemer, but not as The Creator, and therefore, conscientious Sabbath observance is a must, for all who will be sealed in the last days of earth’s history.
[Last Day Events pp 221] Those who would have the seal of God in their foreheads must keep the Sabbath of the fourth commandment. True observance of the Sabbath is the sign of loyalty to God. The fourth commandment alone of all the ten contains the seal of the great Lawgiver, the Creator of the heavens and the earth. The observance of the Lord's memorial, the Sabbath instituted in Eden, the seventh-day Sabbath, is the test of our loyalty to God.
Revelation 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
