2nd Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Taboo [1] There is absolutely nothing wrong with refraining from work on Sunday. Refusing to work on Sunday in compliance with the law of the state, and federal law, whenever it does occur, does not constitute a violation of God’s law. In the fourth commandment, God says six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of The Lord your God. This does not mean that persons are commanded to work six days of the week.
It just means that we have six available days to do our secular work, but if a person does not have to work on Sunday, that’s not a violation of God’s law. During Covid, many persons had to work shortened hours and days, and there are many who work from 9 to 5 five days a week. Therefore, if one decides to refrain from working on Sunday when the mark of the beast is upon the land and when the laws forbid secular work on Sunday, it will not be a violation of God’s law to stop working.
In fact, if I we are alive during that time, and one of the brethren were to come by us to do an oil change on Sunday, we will have to gently rebuke you. Paul says to rebuke sharply, but he also says elsewhere to rebuke with all longsuffering. So, our gentle rebuke will go something like this: My brother, why are you so disobedient? You know full well that it is the law of the land now to refrain from working on Sunday. Why then are you disobedient to the king?
Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resists the power, resists the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
