Matthew 12:11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out? 12 How much then is a man better than a sheep?
These particular passages have been interpreted or in some cases, misinterpreted to mean that which God never intended, and now is the time that the truth in the matter has to be made plain, because the Sabbath will be the great point of controversy, during the final conflict. As we stated in two previous studies, the prince of darkness is currently preparing a major assault on the Remnant people of God, using those opening passages to confuse many minds.
And he will try to minimize or eliminate the sacredness of the Sabbath. And, if persons are not rooted, and grounded in the Living Word, and the written word, they could, and would be swept off their feet with those logical and user-friendly misinterpretations the devil specializes in. In our day as in the days of Christ he employs the Bible to bring in his fanciful misinterpretations. We haven’t begun the Bible study as yet, and we are already in trouble.
According to the various secular and Greek renditions, the words Good/Well can be interpreted to mean almost anything. Something that is beneficial to the human family will fall under the banner of Good/Well. So, because of this, the study for today will be clear cut, as to what The Lord requires of us, as it pertains to the keeping of the Sabbath. Because the theory of evolution, and science in general have dismissed God from the human equation, it is of very critical importance, that the Remnant get this one right.
Matthew 12:12 Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days. 13 Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
