I'm pretty sure that Zayit is just an enthusiastic Jew.  

She's never laid any claims that I know of to being an Adventist.  But if she is and i don't know, Welcome to the club.....lol

But seriously, she does pose an interesting question. (that we've be over a lot but its so fun to debate I figure why not, what the heck. )

Sorry if I offended here- I am new and didn't know I had assumed due to the ambiguous nature of the question that Zayit might be SDA; again, I apologize for making that assumption.

Hey Zayit,

I think the answer to your question is...............most Christians don't want to think of themselves as being "legalist". A piece of advice that I've taken, keep the true Sabbath and if God asks you why you did it, tell him "Jesus is my example and he did it"

It's also possible that many Christians believe its a jewish thing and don't want to be associated with jews.

Then you've heard the whole Grace vs. Law Argument. It's more of a matter of what people are convinced about than what God says its about. I believe in the bible sabbath so people see me as a "Jew wanna be". But whether or not it accepted now, it will be sooner or later and my vote is the former since this world is looking more horrible with each passing day.

Since most have voted with Ovedya answer I will quote from his post but ask you all.

Is Shabbat (the Sabbath ) only mean a rest to you?

If Yeshua is your rest then what of the 1,000 year Sabbath?

So how can our Messiah be a day, an anniversary of his own creation?

Questions.... questions... and still more questions..... We are two pages into how many threads of this subject in the past two months and still you ask questions.

I think I have given just about all I can to this subject so, I'll leave it to you all to answer if you want.......

Questions.... questions...

Zayit, I gave you the real down and dirty answer. I consider my walk with Jesus Christ to be the Sabbath. The Sabbath is made for a rest for us and Jesus is my rest. The Holy Spirit that He ask the Father to send dwells within me and I am in constant contact with them on a minute by minute basis every day.

Jesus violated the Sabbath Laws when he was here by his own admission so I think it is safe to say that He doesn't expect me to follow them either.

I have read all your posts and I just disagree that we are obligated to any old testament laws including the ten commandments, because He combined nine of the ten in the two commandments that he gave to us, and He himself violated the other. There are the don't eat blood and keep ourselves from sexual sins and the other two, but those are covered in the New Testament...

I don't understand what else you expect me to say, and asking me more questions will not get any different answers......

That you don't want to keep the true Sabbath?

Just wondering..is this topic posted in order to better understand others and inquisitive in nature? Or is it to bait others for the purpose of condemning them?

[Guest yod]

O c'mon Z

You know the answer that even they don't know so what's the point?

They simply don't understand the context of the statements made in the Bible, they don't understand the hebraic mindset that gave them the Bible, they don't know the history of the early jewish church, and they have at least 1900 years of bad teaching to overcome.

Give 'em a break.

They don't even understand the question!

That about sums it up.

And Yod, certainly takes a big man to make such an accusation. Of the two of us, who comes from a truly Jewish background.

Now, wanna tell me I don't understand the question?
