'Deception': Christians War Over Worship Day -
Centuries-old clash continues over disputed commandment
Well, it is about time. They actually have two good articles on the Sabbath today. The other is here, and it brings up the point that antisemitism was the root cause of the changing of the Sabbath day - both are easily researched... if you want to take the time to do it. I will forewarn you though; you are accountable to what you learn.
There really should be no dispute in this matter at all. It does not take a scholar to learn that God never "changed the day". And it doesn't take a professor of logic to realize that in order for Him to do so would mean that He would have to go back in time and "change the day" in which He rested. It is really rather silly when you think about it.
It boils down to this: If a Christian knows that God ordained one day to be the Sabbath; His Sabbath, then who on this planet has the authority to change that day?
We know that the answer is that no man has that authority. Not Paul, Peter, or Jesus for that matter - remember, Jesus said that every word He spoke came from the Father above. To say that God can change His Torah makes Him a liar.
"Till heaven and earth pass away, not one jot or tittle will change..."
Where was the Sabbath laid out? Answer: The Torah.
We need more Christian resources that are not afraid to bring this subject into the mainstream. We need to question any authoritative figure that is willing to teach us what they were taught, without ever checking it with the scriptures, and we need to hold them accountable.
