Matthew 19:21 Jesus said unto him, if thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. 22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
It becomes obvious that there are taboos about the Sabbath and Sunday that may have been cherished without any Scriptural basis, and therefore, we must now investigate thoroughly, what are the real issues at stake. Question: What is real issue at stake that is being referenced in Revelation chapters 13 and 14? Answer: The real issue has to do with the manmade attempts to try to transfer the sacredness of the 7th day Sabbath, to the first day of the week.
This can’t be done, and therefore, anyone who believes it can be done, after the outpouring of the latter rain, will, by their choice, be sealing their doom for eternity. When God instituted the Sabbath in Eden, the Bible says that He rested “In” and He rested “On” the 7th day so that it was His presence that He inserted into the Sabbath day that makes it holy…. Genesis 2: 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Genesis 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made….. The same issue of God’s presence is true concerning the burning bush that Moses saw, for prior to that, Moses had known that spot as just a regular place. But, when God’s presence is inserted into the time and place, it becomes holy…. Exodus 3: 4 And when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, here am I.
Exodus 3:5 And he said, draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. 6 Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
