Seventh-day Adventist

A friend of mine belongs to the SDA and is always harping about the Sabbath. Though I have used scripture to battle his view, the one statement that finally ended the argument was, "You can put your faith in the Sabbath, I'll put mine in Christ."

Christ > Sabbath. Good point.

Many individuals call themselves Christian, but what is it that makes one a “ True Christian”? Is it just accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and that is it? Is there more to it than that? I want to show what a true Christian really is and what God has to say about this.

First we need to go back to the beginning of all creation. When God made man and woman He put them in the Garden. God created man and woman for a purpose and that purpose was to have individuals who would eventually qualify for His coming World ruling Government. But our first parents really messed up.

Then entered a being that was cast out of Heaven for trying to over throw God and take over everything from Him. He too was in the Garden and he caused all kinds of trouble for the first man and woman and that was the beginning of the down fall of man. The World got so wicked that God had to destroy it by Water and then started everything a new.

Laws were established for mankind to keep by God. He also had Statutes and Judgments that were to be observed as well. As in a past radio program I showed that the Law giver was the one who became Jesus Christ. Those He gave to be observed forever, never to be done away with.

Let us go through those.


(Exodus 20:2-17 NKJV)
1 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me.


2 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My Commandments.


3 “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.


4 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.


5 “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.


6 “You shall not murder.


7 “You shall not commit adultery.


8 “You shall not steal.


9 “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.


10 “You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.”


To be a true Christian one must adhere to these Laws, these 10 Commandments and keep them as is taught. The fourth Commandment is the test Commandment and it has been desecrated and been spit upon by many who call themselves Christian. The Seventh Day is God's true Sabbath day and has been walked on by the majority of the people who claim to be Christian. People in many Churches have not been taught the truth and when it is presented as I am doing now, they scorn and laugh and say, how dumb can he be.

When in reality they are the ones who are in the dark as to why they keep Sunday as the day of worship and not the 7 Th. Day Sabbath. People do not want to check for themselves to see if what they have been taught and observe may be Pagan in nature.No, individuals take for face value of what their Minister tells them never, checking to see if what they do is true..

What about all of the days that are observed by individuals such as Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Valentines day and many more? Do individuals not realize that they are pagan in nature and that they all came from Pagan Rome traditions? The truth is, they do not because again they never check to see for themselves if they are to be observed or why they are. This World is completely in the sway of Satan and in his control. This includes the Churches of today. God is the soul Creator and He expects His Laws and all His Statutes too be kept as he directed.

But Satan is the great counter fitter and he has counter fitted many Pagan days that claim to be of God.

Are these true character signs of God? The answer to that is an astounding “no”. Do you really know where the days such as Christmas and others started?It is the responsibility of an individual to check on the reality of those days before it is to late to do so and before one is caught in a very serious trap.

Notice
Leviticus 23 is best described as, and is often called, the “Holy Day Chapter.”

It contains a brief description of each of God’s seven annual Holy Days—also called Feasts or Sabbaths, which we will see are interchangeable terms throughout the chapter.

And I know how people say that they are only for the Jews. But do we have a God who would give certain days for one group of individuals to keep and then give another group another set of days to be kept. That would be a very confused God to say the least. No, God gave ALL days for ALL individuals.





Notice: Lev. 23: “And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations [commanded assemblies], even these are My feasts” (vs. 1-2).

Verse 3 -introduces the weekly Sabbath, Saturday, as one of God’s Feasts: “Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; you shall do no work therein: it is the Sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings.”

Verse 4- introduces the rest of God’s Feasts: “These are the feasts of the Lord, even holy convocations, which you shall proclaim in their seasons.”

Verse 5- reveals the first of God’s Feasts: “In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the Lord’s Passover.”

Next, we see that the seven Days of Unleavened Bread are introduced.

What does forever mean. It does not mean a short while and then stop doing it? Forever from God means for Eternity.

To come to Pentecost God said you shall count unto you from the morrow after the Sabbath, This is not a weekly Sabbath but a High Day sabbath after Passover,

He said that seven Sabbaths' weekly Sabbaths shall be complete:

Verse 21- explains that the Feast of First fruits is a commanded assembly and that it too was ordained by God to be kept “forever”:

And you shall proclaim on the selfsame day, that it may be an holy convocation unto you:
you shall do no servile work therein: it shall be a statute forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.”


This passage includes a second emphasis by God about the permanent establishment of these days so that none cannot misunderstand what “forever” means.


Notice that Israel was to keep these days “throughout your generations” (also repeated twice). There are still generations of Israel alive on earth today and are to observe all of these “forever”.

Yes, all of Gods Holy Days are to be observed today as commanded by God. But I hear people say, but we are not to keep those for they only for Israel. But I am going to tell you by the authority of God that we are to keep those Feast Days because we are part of the “Lost House of Israel”. And only those to whom are called by God will understand and no other. God is only calling a very select few and only He will do the selecting of those individuals by opening their minds to His understanding. If you are being called you will be able to understand what is being said here. If one does not understand then they will not be part of the Elect of God because what is taught here has to be understood. I pray that God will open your mind to be able to see His truth because time is very shot.

Welcome to the forums.

So I understand what you’re trying to say here… Salvation is not through faith alone as a free gift of God through Jesus Christ but requires Jesus Christ AND the 10 commandments? Yes/No answer please.

Or are you saying that faith without works is dead? Yes/No answer please.

Also as Christians we’re to keep the Sabbath? Yes/No answer please.

Are you saying that all Christians MUST keep the feasts as established for Israel in the OT?

Are you a 7^th Day Adventist?

 

God bless,

What I am saying is that there is only One God, not many. That what He has established ,He established for all alike. There are over 500 denominations in our Nation or more and they pretty well all teach something differently, but claim to be going to the same place, Heaven.

God only has one way to acknowledge Him and it is up to an individual to seek and find the true way. The Seventh day Sabbath is not just for the Jews only, it is Gods Sabbath for all man kind. Sunday is a day that was instituted by Constantine in 321 A.D. as to have a day set aside for so called Christian worship. Check out your Encyclopedia under Sunday worship and you will see the truth.

Yes, there is only one God and He does have His Holy Time.

SDA is just one of several false religions.
