Hello 👋 everyone good morning ☀️ I hope you’re having a time and nice 👍 day
I want to share to you about sabbath. Means sevenths days and let’s see what bible says ?
The first Christians worshipped on the seventh day of the week, but now most churches worship on the first day. How did the day change? Does God care which day you keep?
Is one day of the week holy? If one day is holy, which day is it? Most Christians believe Sunday is the day for rest, but some churches rest on Saturday. Who is right? Is one of those days holy now?
The Bible says that God created a weekly day of rest when He made the earth. “And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done” Genesis 2:3, In the beginning God made the seventh day a holy day for rest—a day which the Bible calls the Sabbath.
More than 2,500 years later, God made an agreement with the Israelites, and He gave them the Ten Commandments. One of the commandments is that everyone must rest on the seventh day:
“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you. For in six days the Lord made all the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy” Exodus 20:8-11
The Ten Commandments were not new laws! The Sabbath was not a new law. God reminded the people that He had made the Sabbath holy when He made the earth.
Many people think that people who lived before the Israelites, like Abraham, did not know about the Sabbath and God’s other laws. But the Bible clearly says that God made the Sabbath holy at the beginning, long before Abraham was born. God also said, “Abraham obeyed me and kept my requirements, my commands, my decrees and my laws” Genesis 26:5, . When God talked to the Israelites He said, “remember the Sabbath.” They already knew about the Sabbath—probably from their forefather Abraham.
The seventh day in the Bible is the 24 hours between sunset on Friday and sunset on Saturday. Some calendars show Sunday as the last day of the week—but Saturday is the seventh day in the Bible.
