A Few Thoughts on the Sabbath

The Sabbath is God's day of rest, not a day of rest of the Jews only, it is not owned by the Jews. It was kept by many before the Jews even existed. It was kept by all of Israel, until they sinned. Then God punished Israel for breaking His Sabbath, not just the Jews.

At the time of Christ, the Sabbath was still being observed by the Jews, and by Christ. Christ set the example. He did not keep the Sabbath because He was a Jew, but because He created it and understood the significance and meaning of the Sabbath.

It was made for man, not for Jews alone, nor for Israel alone. It is for all of us, and as followers of Christ, it is our duty to observe the day of rest that Christ created and observed.

Sunday is the first day of the week, and although we can worship God on that day, just as we can worship God on any of the week, it is on the Sabbath that we cease from our labours and have fellowship with God the Father and Christ. The Father is not accessible to those who do not seek Him on the Sabbath.

The USA is going downhill

I believe that Barack Obama has never proved that he was born in the USA. It is a prerequisite to become the President of the USA that the person be born in the USA. There is a suggestion that he was actually born in Kenya, which would disqualify him from being the US President. This would make him a usurper, a pretender, and a thief.

It is a shame to see the USA go down the way it is going. But a country often gets the leader or President it deserves. Too many people today have abandoned biblical values, and worship fully consumerism, materialism, murder of unborn children and the cult of the self. Even many of those who go to church regularly, are guilty of being only a christian in name and not in deeds.

At least those of us who are true Christian have God's truth and understanding, and the Holy Spirit that guides us and helps us to at least try to obey God, even though we are far from perfect. But the majority of people today do not have the Spirit and thus they are easily led astray, as has happened in the USA.

I believe that the current situation in the world, including Obama, is all leading up to the Great Tribulation.

At least those of us who are true Christians know that the end of this evil world is near. Christ will return soon, and we can then enter God's wonderful Kingdom.

Pray that you may be counted worthy to escape the bad things of the Tribulation and to be in a place of safety at that time.


God bless us all.
