Shabbat
Can you keep the knowledge and fear of God without keeping the Sabbath? My 
answer is “NO!” Israel went into captivity for breaking the Sabbath (Ezekiel 20). The first thing God revealed to Israel when they came out of Egypt was importance of the Sabbath (Exodus 16.)
In our sinfulness and weakness, we human beings are subject to forgetting things in the process of time, including – if not to say mainly – the things of Elohim (God). Psalm 78:39 says He remembered them, but verse 42 says they remembered not Him. Scripture therefore is filled with many things that were done or made to be memorials; the Sabbath is one of those. Sabbath was given to mankind at the close of creation by Yahweh God as a memorial of His creative power (Genesis 2:1-3). That is, He sovereignty chose it to be the thing whereby man would be linked to God by a weekly day of rest. And not just any day, but the seventh day, whereby man’s loyalty to his Creator would be tested, and as a mark of man’s sanctification (Exodus 31:13; Ezekiel 20:12). It begins at sunset on Friday, and ends Saturday evening (Genesis 1:5; Leviticus 23:32).
The Sabbath is not Jewish, as church leaders wants people to understand it. The Messiah did not say it was made for the Jew; He said it was made for MAN! (Mark 2:27) It was made for man 2000 years before the first Israelite was born! The Sabbath was observed by the faithful prior to Sinai (Exodus 16:27-30). The phrase, “son of man” in Isaiah 56:2 , literally reads in the Hebrew text “the son of Adam.” Further proof that God intended that all men should keep the Sabbath is seen in verses 6-8. This passage indicates that Adam enjoyed God’s Sabbath along with his family. Did not the patriarchs need a day so they could rest just like anyone else, and for worship, too? Who is there that would say they believe Noah and his family worked on building the ark seven days a week? God did not sanctify the Sabbath for his own benefit only, but also as a day of rest for His people. 
The Sabbath was then reiterated by God to Moses as a part of His moral law, written in stone with His finger, with a specific penalty imposed for disobedience (Exodus 31:14-15). A very few specific restrictions were added concerning gathering manna and sticks to kindle fires, which we observe by ceasing from our usual daily labours, but do not enforce in the literal sense with penalties (Hebrews 7:12). These added laws could not give life (Galatians 3:21).
From the law we are therefore able to learn that Sabbath-keeping it cannot bring salvation to anyone. In the heart of the Ten Commandments we read, “Remember the Sabbath….” Not something new, for how could they recall what they had never heard of before? This is a two-fold command for both rest and work, with an explanation attached. It lets us know that to disparage it or to observe some other day instead of the seventh, is to move us away from the only foundation to protect us from the ambush of atheistic, humanistic, evolutionary, thinking in denying the Creator God.
The Fourth Commandment was NOT changed at Calvary, the resurrection, or any other time, as we were touch by the “mother Church”, Nor do we now have only “The Nine Commandments.” (If only nine were perpetual, why were ten graven in stone?) Under the New Covenant with “separation of Church and state,” the death penalty for Sabbath-breaking (along with blasphemy, idolatry, adultery, and often even murder, too) is not enforced today. Nevertheless, the divine penalties are still in force, and will be meted out to the “Romish” church and her Protestant daughters (Revelations 17:5) for adultery with the world, names of blasphemy against Yahweh, murder of His saints, and for laying impious hands on the Fourth Commandment, as well! (Ezekiel 22:26, 31).
Why did the Roman Catholic “Church” in the Fall of 1996 officially endorse evolution? That question can be answered by the day she observes. Does she observe the seventh-day Sabbath, which is the memorial of creation? Of course not. At the council of Laodicea in the mid-360s she actually outlawed obedience to the Fourth Commandment, and executed Sabbatarians during the Dark Ages! She declares her authority apart from Scripture to switch the day of rest and worship, to the first day of the week. That is just like human nature because God said to work six days and then rest; man wants to take his rest day first and then work! The real question, however, is this: Why must the leading (or mis-leading) Protestant and so-called “radical” Anabaptist groups follow her treacherous example? As usual, the mainline churches are out of line with God’s Word! They are like children running away from home, but carrying a picture of their mother in their pocket! 
The Messiah arose on Saturday evening, yet most groups teach an “Easter” Sunday resurrection and a Good Friday crucifixion, thus nullifying the sign of the prophet Jonah in Matthew 12:40. That was the only sign given of the true Messiah! No one but Satan could be the author of such confusion; truth is on the scaffold, and wrong is on the throne. John 5:18 does not say that the Messiah broke the Sabbath. He disobeyed the Talmud (the accepted authority for Orthodox Jews), but not the Torah the entire body of Jewish law and tradition as found in the Old Testament)! In other words, He broke only the Pharisees’ man-made rules or “by-laws” which they had added to God’s Word. He had no “anti-Sabbath attitude”! He merely corrected the abuses. Otherwise, how could a lawbreaker (yes, because God said that His Law is unbreakable) have become our Saviour? He would have been a sinner, and unable to save even his own self! Furthermore, He worked every Sunday and is to be our example – for the Scriptures command six days of labour, not five, as our popular culture practices (see Ezekiel 46:1).
