Sabbath is part of the New Covenant pt1 of 5

This video, which answers objection #2 that the Sabbath is not part of the New Covenant, seeks to dispell this myth. Part 1 introduces the biblical requirements for establishing a covenant; for if we do not know how a covenant is established we certainly will have a hard time discerning where it starts & what are its provisions. Other points made are:
1 That Christ did not destroy the Law, of which the Sabbath is a part. In fact, He clearly taught that was NOT His mission.
2 That Jesus, rather than eliminating the Sabbath, taught its proper observance; a wasted endeavor if the Sabbath was not going to be part of the New Covenant.
3 Christ told His disciples to be prayerful of an event that was to come about 40 years after His death & resurrection that it NOT occur on the Sabbath day. Why command them to do this if the Sabbath was to be eliminated for Christians at the cross?
4 That Luke speaks of the Sabbath day about 30 years after Christs death & resurrection.
5 That the New Testament refers to 84 Sabbaths being kept in the Book of Acts by the Apostles and other saved by grace Christians. Seems the Apostles were Sabbath keepers.
6 That Mary, Jesus own mother, was observing the Sabbath day, according to the commandment after Christ shed His blood and established the New Covenant.

Thanks for sharing this.

Really really hard to find a Christan based congregation which meets on Shabot in my home town though.

@xxHUNGRY4THETRUTHxx That can be a tough task. But there are about 150 Shabot-keeping denominations out there. With persistence, I'm sure that you can find one. I am blessed in that I have two churches within 20 min of my home that I can go to. Google can be helpful in this matter.

i see the truth in what you are saying but i can't understand where the new convernant is coming in. Can you do another video on that? Again thanks

[EraunaoGraphe]

@sigididesign You are right - a video detailing the 'new' covenant vs the everlasting covenant is certainly needed. Some think in terms of Old Covenant vs Old Covenant and believe they are conflicting promises; this thinking is greatly flawed. Hebrews 4:2 touches upon this very thing; the gospel that was preached to "them" (the children led out by Moses, Hbr 3:16) is the SAME as is being preached to New Testament believers. Some make it harder than it is. :)

This is not truth! Sabbatarians simply cannot see that the Law and the Prophets AS A UNIT pointed to Christ (it did not cease until all was fulfilled by Him- Matt.5:17ff). Thereafter, all law is subsumed and transcended by Christ's higher 'law' (mediated by His Spirit). At best the Decalogue remains as a pedagogue only. The Sabbath (Rest) pointed back to deliverance from Egypt, rest in God (His Rest begun at Creation) and forward to deliverance in Christ, our Spiritual Rest (Matt.11:28)

@brianhyde63 I see you are saying this under part 1 of the video, as such you haven't heard the explanations I provide in the remaining parts. If you had, you would know that I discuss Matt 5:17 and 11:28 and the modern misinterpretation and application of it by mainstream Christianity. I wonder, how far in the video did you get?

[EraunaoGraphe]

I am not saying that Abraham was without sin in doing those things contrary to torah; David & Solomon also sinned are you saying they didnt have torah either?

And please tell me where YAHWEH tells Noah to eat all animals.

I admire Christians who do as they preach, and are not afraid to go against traditions that contradict their own foundation. It take courage to go against the flow. They call it legalistic, but if one is not under the law then they are lawless. And if you willingly brake one commandment then might swell break them all. If you can't even follow your own law then how can you expect others to do the same. "my people perish because of lack of knowledge"

I still keep the of resting in jesus on saturday.. I also go to sunday worship sometimes, but since i have found no scripture that says he changed the sabbath to sunday i feel more comfortable keeping it on saturday

Thanks for your vids. Very interesting. It's amazing how many people are confused about the Sabbath.

@yahokobbenyah No. Canada. Gravity. No.

[yahokobbenyah]

@Suge212 Do you believe in rebelling against the Holy Laws of God? What about the country you live in, are you under the governments laws? What about the law of gravity, are you under that law or are you floating into space? I believe in obeying the Holy and Righteous Laws of Yahuweh through Yahoshua ha Moshiach (Joshua the Messiah or Jesus el Cristo en Espanol) who gives the strength and power to obey via Ruakh ha Kodesh (the Holy Spirit). Are you into rebellion or obedience of the Word of God?

[Suge212]

@stargirlsusan "but if one is not under the law then they are lawless."

Is that so? "For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace." Romans 6:15.

Actually if you keep reading we not only are not UNDER THE LAW but we are DEAD TO THE LAW as well.

Now I'm not sure if I understand your context but if you are advocating being under the law then I'd advise you to keep THE WHOLE LAW perfectly without sin, as those under the law have not Christ.

Since we are grafted into the Jewish root, then we are a part of the covenant people and are not in the position to change it. Even so, the Reformation had become stalled due to the fierce violence against the Reformers by the Catholic Church, a fearful thing I am sure. God's purpose would always be to restore all of the promises and complete our understanding of all of what Jesus taught us.
