>> IF THE ALMIGHTY WAS GONNA
CHANGE ONE OF THE LAWS THAT
00:00:12.86\00:00:15.63
RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS
COVENANT, DON'T YOU THINK YOU'D
00:00:15.63\00:00:18.10
SEE SOMETHING VERY
PROMINENT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
00:00:18.10\00:00:20.53
THAT SAYS, "BY THE WAY,
I'VE CHANGED THE SABBATH DAY
00:00:20.53\00:00:22.86
TO THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK"?
00:00:22.86\00:00:24.30
IT'S NOT THERE, FRIENDS.
00:00:24.30\00:00:26.46
>> FOR OVER 40 YEARS,

WE INVITE YOU TO SIT
BACK AND ENJOY THIS EDITION OF
00:00:41.70\00:00:44.86
"AMAZING FACTS PRESENTS."
00:00:44.86\00:00:47.63
>> I HAVE PREACHED IN
HUNDREDS OF DIFFERENT CHURCHES,
00:00:58.10\00:01:00.76
MANY DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS
AND I, AGAIN, I WANT TO
00:01:00.76\00:01:03.40
EMPHASIZE GODLY GOOD PEOPLE
IN MANY DIFFERENT CHURCHES.
00:01:03.40\00:01:06.63
I BELIEVE THAT.
00:01:06.63\00:01:07.80
I BELIEVE THEY LOVE THE LORD.
00:01:07.80\00:01:08.80
THE LORD'S WORKING IN THEIR
LIVES, HE'S ANSWERING THEIR
00:01:08.80\00:01:10.63
PRAYERS, HE'S WORKING THROUGH
THEM, BUT I'VE DISCOVERED
00:01:10.63\00:01:13.43
SOMETHING THAT'S SUSPICIOUS.
00:01:13.43\00:01:15.23
I COULD STAND UP IN--AND
I PREACHED IN MANY BAPTIST
00:01:15.23\00:01:18.30
CHURCHES AND I COULD PREACH
ON VIRTUALLY ANY COMMANDMENT.
00:01:18.30\00:01:21.66
I COULD PREACH ON: HONOR YOUR
FATHER AND MOTHER, DON'T STEAL,
00:01:21.66\00:01:24.40
DON'T LIE, DON'T COVET,
DON'T USE GOD'S NAME IN VAIN,
00:01:24.40\00:01:27.46
DON'T WORSHIP IDOLS.
00:01:27.46\00:01:28.76
AND THEY'LL ALL SAY, "AMEN."
00:01:28.76\00:01:30.80
BUT THEN I COULD SAY, REMEMBER
THE SEVENTH DAY AS THE SABBATH
00:01:30.80\00:01:33.90
OF THE LORD" AND THEY'LL SAY,
"DON'T PUT US UNDER THE LAW.
00:01:33.90\00:01:36.60
WE'RE UNDER GRACE NOW."
00:01:36.60\00:01:38.56
AND I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING
STRANGE THAT PEOPLE ARE
00:01:38.56\00:01:41.50
ESPECIALLY UNCOMFORTABLE
WITH THIS ONE COMMANDMENT.
00:01:41.50\00:01:44.50
YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS?
00:01:44.50\00:01:45.70
SOMETIMES IT'S EASIER FOR
US TO GIVE GOD OUR MONEY THAN
00:01:45.70\00:01:49.66
TO GIVE HIM OUR TIME.
00:01:49.66\00:01:51.36
BENJAMIN FRANKLIN SAID TIME IS
THE STUFF THAT LIFE IS MADE OF.
00:01:51.36\00:01:55.36
GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD HE
GAVE HIS SON FOR 33 1/2 YEARS.
00:01:55.36\00:02:00.93
HE GAVE US HIS TIME.
00:02:00.93\00:02:02.23
HE WANTS US TO GIVE HIM OUR
TIME TO SHOW THAT WE LOVE HIM.
00:02:02.23\00:02:06.23
AND SEE THAT'S HOW YOU
SHOW YOU LOVE SOMEBODY,
00:02:06.23\00:02:08.53
BY GIVING THEM YOUR TIME.
00:02:08.53\00:02:09.83
QUESTION NUMBER SIX,
"WHAT DAY DID JESUS KEEP HOLY?"
00:02:09.83\00:02:15.16
CHRISTIAN IS A
FOLLOWER OF CHRIST.
00:02:15.16\00:02:16.66
LUKE 4:16, "AND HE CAME TO
NAZARETH, WHERE HE HAD BEEN
00:02:16.66\00:02:19.93
BROUGHT UP: AND, AS HIS CUSTOM
WAS, HE WENT INTO THE SYNAGOGUE
00:02:19.93\00:02:25.46
ON THE SABBATH DAY,
AND STOOD UP FOR TO READ."
00:02:25.46\00:02:28.83
NOW IS A CUSTOM SOMETHING
YOU DO ONCE OR TWICE OR IS IT
00:02:28.83\00:02:31.86
A PATTERN?
00:02:31.86\00:02:33.46
IT WAS THE CUSTOM OF JESUS.
00:02:33.46\00:02:34.56
NOW FRIENDS, IF EVER YOU'RE
IN DOUBT ABOUT WHAT TO DO,
00:02:34.56\00:02:37.23
WHAT IS A CHRISTIAN?
00:02:37.23\00:02:38.53
A FOLLOWER OF CHRIST.
00:02:38.53\00:02:40.50
DO THE SAFE THING.
00:02:40.50\00:02:42.70
WHEN I WENT THROUGH THIS ISSUE,
FINALLY IT OCCURRED TO ME, HEY,
00:02:42.70\00:02:46.10
WHEN YOU'RE IN
DOUBT, DO WHAT JESUS DID.
00:02:46.10\00:02:48.93
I KNOW IN THE JUDGMENT DAY
WHEN I STAND BEFORE THE LORD,
00:02:48.93\00:02:51.93
THE LORD IS NOT GOING TO SAY TO
ME, "DOUG, I'D LIKE TO LET YOU
00:02:51.93\00:02:54.50
INTO THE KINGDOM, BUT I CAN'T."
00:02:54.50\00:02:57.10
WHY LORD?
00:02:57.10\00:02:57.86
"BECAUSE YOU
KEPT THE SABBATH DAY."
00:02:57.86\00:03:00.70
I'LL SAY, "BUT IT WAS ONE
OF TEN COMMANDMENTS, LORD.
00:03:00.70\00:03:03.43
YOU SPOKE IT WITH YOUR VOICE,
YOU WROTE IT WITH YOUR FINGER
00:03:03.43\00:03:05.80
AND YOUR SON DID
IT AS AN EXAMPLE."
00:03:05.80\00:03:08.63
OBVIOUSLY THERE MUST BE
SOMETHING BEHIND IT THAT MANY
00:03:08.63\00:03:11.60
ARE MISSING, AND I CAN HEAR
THE WHEELS TURNING RIGHT HERE
00:03:11.60\00:03:14.63
IN MANHATTAN AND
AROUND THE COUNTRY.
00:03:14.63\00:03:16.40
PEOPLE ARE GOING, "DOUG, THIS IS
MAKING SENSE, BUT WHY DO SO MANY
00:03:16.40\00:03:18.96
CHRISTIANS WORSHIP ON
THE FIRST DAY OR OTHER DAYS?"
00:03:18.96\00:03:22.26
WE'LL GET TO THAT, DON'T WORRY.
00:03:22.26\00:03:23.56
NUMBER SEVEN, "WHAT WAS PAUL'S
CUSTOM REGARDING THE SABBATH?"
00:03:23.56\00:03:27.76
DID HE HAVE A PATTERN?
00:03:27.76\00:03:29.70
YOU CAN READ IT IN THE BIBLE.
00:03:29.70\00:03:31.00
"AND PAUL, AS HIS CUSTOM WAS, HE
WENT TO THEM AND THREE SABBATH
00:03:31.00\00:03:35.40
DAYS HE REASONED WITH
THEM OUT OF THE SCRIPTURE."
00:03:35.40\00:03:39.43
ACTS 18:4 IS THE SECOND PART.
00:03:39.43\00:03:43.16
"HE REASONED IN THE
SYNAGOGUE," WHAT DOES IT SAY?
00:03:43.16\00:03:46.33
"EVERY SABBATH."
00:03:46.33\00:03:48.20
AND SOME PEOPLE SAY, AND
WHAT DID HE DO EVERY SABBATH?
00:03:48.20\00:03:51.03
HE PERSUADED JEWS AND GREEKS.
00:03:51.03\00:03:53.33
SOME PEOPLE SAY WELL THE
ONLY REASON PAUL WAS DOING THAT
00:03:53.33\00:03:55.53
WAS BECAUSE HE WAS JUST
TRYING TO MINISTER TO THE JEWS
00:03:55.53\00:03:58.90
THAT WERE THERE.
00:03:58.90\00:03:59.90
YOU CAN READ IN ACTS 16.
00:03:59.90\00:04:01.86
WHO WROTE THE BOOK OF ACTS?
00:04:01.86\00:04:03.30
DOES ANYONE HERE KNOW?
00:04:03.30\00:04:04.46
LUKE DID.
00:04:04.46\00:04:05.96
AND LUKE SAYS, LUKE WAS A
GENTILE THAT SEVERAL YEARS,
00:04:05.96\00:04:10.10
PROBABLY 20 YEARS AFTER JESUS
DIED AND ASCENDED TO HEAVEN
00:04:10.10\00:04:12.80
THAT THEY WERE STILL
KEEPING THE SABBATH DAY.
00:04:12.80\00:04:15.50
THE CHRISTIANS GATHERED AT
A RIVER SIDE, A PLACE WHERE
00:04:15.50\00:04:17.96
PRAYER WAS WANT TO BE MADE.
00:04:17.96\00:04:19.56
NUMBER EIGHT, "DID THE APOSTLES
ALSO MEET WITH THE GENTILES
00:04:19.56\00:04:23.66
ON THE SABBATH DAY?"
00:04:23.66\00:04:25.43
ACTS 13:42 IT SAYS, "AND
WHEN THE JEWS WERE GONE OUT OF
00:04:25.43\00:04:31.43
THE SYNAGOGUE, THE GENTILES
BESOUGHT THAT THESE WORDS
00:04:31.43\00:04:36.33
MIGHT BE PREACHED TO
THEM THE NEXT SABBATH DAY."
00:04:36.33\00:04:40.03
SOME OF YOU REMEMBER WHEN
THE APOSTLE PAUL WAS HUNTING
00:04:40.03\00:04:42.66
DOWN CHRISTIANS
BEFORE HIS CONVERSION.
00:04:42.66\00:04:44.90
DO YOU KNOW WHERE HE WENT
LOOKING FOR THE CHRISTIANS?
00:04:44.90\00:04:47.36
IT SAYS HE ENTERED INTO
THE SYNAGOGUES; WHY WOULD HE
00:04:47.36\00:04:49.93
BE LOOKING FOR
CHRISTIANS IN THE SYNAGOGUES?
00:04:49.93\00:04:52.16
'CAUSE THEY WERE WORSHIPING
ON THE SAME DAY THAT THE JEWS
00:04:52.16\00:04:55.10
HAD BEEN WORSHIPING.
00:04:55.10\00:04:56.66
NUMBER NINE, AND WE'LL EXPLAIN
THIS BETTER AS TIME GOES ON.
00:04:56.66\00:05:02.43
YOU'LL SEE HOW IT
PLAYS INTO PROPHECY.
00:05:02.43\00:05:04.66
"DID JESUS INTENDS FOR HIS
PEOPLE TO KEEP THE SABBATH AFTER
00:05:04.66\00:05:07.70
HE DIED FOR THEIR SINS?"
00:05:07.70\00:05:09.93
THE BIBLE TELLS
US IN MATTHEW 24:20
00:05:09.93\00:05:12.86
JESUS IS PREDICTING THIS
TIME OF TROUBLE IN THE END OF
00:05:12.86\00:05:15.30
THE WORLD.
00:05:15.30\00:05:16.26
"BUT PRAY THAT YOUR FLIGHT
BE NOT IN THE WINTER, NEITHER ON
00:05:16.26\00:05:20.13
THE SABBATH DAY."
00:05:20.13\00:05:23.10
GOD WAS LOOKING DOWN IN TIME.
00:05:23.10\00:05:24.93
JESUS SAID, "PRAY YOU WOULDN'T
HAVE TO FLEE FOR YOUR LIFE
00:05:24.93\00:05:26.96
ON THE SABBATH DAY."
00:05:26.96\00:05:28.30
NOW LOOK IN REVELATION 14,
THIS IS NOT IN YOUR LESSON.
00:05:28.30\00:05:31.96
I'M GONNA GIVE YOU A LITTLE
FREE SCRIPTURE AND YOU'LL SEE
00:05:31.96\00:05:33.86
WHY THIS IS SO RELEVANT.
00:05:33.86\00:05:35.26
JUST BEFORE A GROUP IS
IDENTIFIED AS HAVING THE MARK OF
00:05:35.26\00:05:39.16
THE BEAST, REVELATION 14,
AND THE WRATH OF GOD THAT POURS
00:05:39.16\00:05:42.56
ON THOSE WHO HAVE
THE MARK OF THE BEAST.
00:05:42.56\00:05:44.56
REVELATION 14, OKAY?
00:05:44.56\00:05:46.33
AND THEN AFTER THAT JESUS IS
PICTURED COMING IN THE CLOUDS.
00:05:46.33\00:05:49.13
JUST BEFORE THAT, THREE ANGELS
ARE SEEN FLYING IN THE MIDST
00:05:49.13\00:05:52.80
OF HEAVEN WITH THESE
SPECIAL MESSAGES THEY PROCLAIM
00:05:52.80\00:05:55.30
WITH A LOUD VOICE.
00:05:55.30\00:05:56.70
INCIDENTALLY, THIS PROPHECY
IS BEING FULFILLED IN YOUR EARS
00:05:56.70\00:05:59.53
RIGHT NOW.
00:05:59.53\00:06:01.70
WHAT DO THOSE ANGELS SAY?
00:06:01.70\00:06:03.20
YOU CAN READ VERSE 14:6-7,
"I SAW ANOTHER ANGEL FLYING IN
00:06:03.20\00:06:07.10
THE MIDST OF HEAVEN, HAVING THE
EVERLASTING GOSPEL TO PREACH TO
00:06:07.10\00:06:10.50
THEM WHO DWELL UPON THE EARTH--
TO EVERY NATION, TRIBE, TONGUE,
00:06:10.50\00:06:15.40
AND PEOPLE--SAYING WITH A
LOUD VOICE, FEAR GOD AND GIVE
00:06:15.40\00:06:19.60
GLORY TO HIM FOR THE
HOUR OF HIS JUDGMENT IS COME,"
00:06:19.60\00:06:24.00
AND IT GOES ON TO SAY,
"AND WORSHIP HIM WHO MADE HEAVEN
00:06:24.00\00:06:28.43
AND EARTH, AND THE SEA AND
THE SPRINGS--OR THE FOUNTAINS,
00:06:28.43\00:06:32.60
OF WATER."
00:06:32.60\00:06:34.03
THIS IS A DIRECT QUOTE FROM
EXODUS 20, THE 4TH COMMANDMENT
00:06:34.03\00:06:38.40
COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE SABBATH
COMMANDMENT BECAUSE IT SAYS
00:06:38.40\00:06:42.13
FOR IN 6 DAYS THE LORD
MADE THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH
00:06:42.13\00:06:44.63
AND THE SEA.
00:06:44.63\00:06:46.13
YOU KNOW WHAT THE
ISSUE IN REVELATION IS?
00:06:46.13\00:06:47.86
YOU KNOW WHAT THE
ISSUE IN GENESIS WAS?
00:06:47.86\00:06:49.96
WHO YOU WORSHIP
AND HOW YOU WORSHIP.
00:06:49.96\00:06:53.06
DID YOU KNOW THAT?
00:06:53.06\00:06:54.40
CAIN AND ABEL BOTH
CLAIMED TO WORSHIP THE SAME GOD.
00:06:54.40\00:06:57.50
ONE DID IT DIFFERENTLY.
00:06:57.50\00:07:00.13
CLAIMED TO WORSHIP THE SAME GOD,
CAIN KILLED HIS BROTHER BECAUSE
00:07:00.13\00:07:04.00
ABEL WAS ACCEPTED.
00:07:04.00\00:07:05.63
HE DID IT THE
WAY GOD PRESCRIBED.
00:07:05.63\00:07:07.66
YOU GET TO REVELATION AND
IT SAYS THE BEAST POWER COMPELS
00:07:07.66\00:07:10.36
EVERYBODY TO DO, WHAT?
00:07:10.36\00:07:12.03
TO WORSHIP.
00:07:12.03\00:07:13.03
YOU GOT THE POINT, FRIENDS?
00:07:13.03\00:07:14.06
IN THE LAST DAYS EVERYBODY'S
GOING TO BE WORSHIPING.
00:07:14.06\00:07:17.06
THEY'LL BE TWO GREAT
CHURCHES IN THE WORLD.
00:07:17.06\00:07:19.26
ONE IS GOING TO BE FOLLOWING
THE WIDE WAY TO DESTRUCTION,
00:07:19.26\00:07:22.56
BUT THEY'RE VERY RELIGIOUS.
00:07:22.56\00:07:24.03
THEY'RE WORSHIPING.
00:07:24.03\00:07:25.16
THE OTHER IS ON THE NARROW ROAD
AND THEY WILL BE PERSECUTED.
00:07:25.16\00:07:28.26
JESUS SAID THE HOUR IS COMING
WHEN THOSE WHO PERSECUTE YOU
00:07:28.26\00:07:31.30
WILL THINK THEY'RE SERVING GOD.
00:07:31.30\00:07:33.20
AND IT RESOLVES AROUND WHO
AND HOW AND WHEN YOU WORSHIP.
00:07:33.20\00:07:38.13
THAT WAS THE ISSUE IN DANIEL.
00:07:38.13\00:07:39.60
THEY HAD TO DECIDE DO WE BOW TO
THE GRAVEN IMAGE OR DO WE KEEP
00:07:39.60\00:07:42.26
THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD?
00:07:42.26\00:07:43.76
THAT WAS THE ISSUE WHEN
DANIEL WAS IN THE LION'S DEN.
00:07:43.76\00:07:46.06
"DO I BREAK THE COMMANDMENT
THAT SAYS DON'T HAVE OTHER GODS
00:07:46.06\00:07:48.26
OR DO I PRAY TO KING DARIUS?"
00:07:48.26\00:07:50.30
THE ISSUE IS WHO DO YOU OBEY?
00:07:50.30\00:07:51.63
PAUL SAYS IN ROMANS,
"YOU ARE THE SERVANTS OF
00:07:51.63\00:07:55.10
THE ONE WHO YOU OBEY."
00:07:55.10\00:07:57.13
AND THAT'S WHY THE DEVIL HAS
TRIED TO MESMERIZE MUCH OF THE
00:07:57.13\00:07:59.83
CHRISTIAN WORLD, AND EVEN SOME
OF MY JEWISH FRIENDS DON'T KEEP
00:07:59.83\00:08:02.70
THE SABBATH ANYMORE WITH
THE IDEA THAT IT DOESN'T MATTER,
00:08:02.70\00:08:05.90
IT'S NOT RELEVANT.
00:08:05.90\00:08:07.23
AND WE THINK BECAUSE WE CAN, BY
POPULAR CONSENSUS SAY NOBODY'S
00:08:07.23\00:08:10.83
DOING IT, THAT GOD DOESN'T CARE.
00:08:10.83\00:08:12.76
WELL, I'VE GOT NEWS FOR
YOU; JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME
00:08:12.76\00:08:15.56
YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER.
00:08:15.56\00:08:17.23
HE SAYS, "I AM THE LORD.
00:08:17.23\00:08:18.36
I CHANGE NOT."
00:08:18.36\00:08:19.50
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF
THERE'S ONLY ONE PERSON LEFT IN
00:08:19.50\00:08:21.76
THE WORLD WHO IS OBEYING
GOD, GOD WILL HONOR THAT PERSON.
00:08:21.76\00:08:25.30
JUST BECAUSE THE WHOLE
WORLD TURNS THEIR BACK ON GOD
00:08:25.30\00:08:28.03
AND HIS COMMANDMENTS
DOESN'T MAKE IT NULLIFIED.
00:08:28.03\00:08:31.00
IT'S STILL IN TACT, FRIENDS.
00:08:31.00\00:08:32.46
HE SPOKE IT WITH HIS VOICE,
HE WROTE IT WITH HIS FINGER.
00:08:32.46\00:08:35.43
IT'S OF AN
INTERNAL, ENDURING NATURE.
00:08:35.43\00:08:37.86
WHAT MORE COULD HE DO?
00:08:37.86\00:08:39.56
AND FOR SOMEONE TO SAY THAT
THAT COMMANDMENT IN THE MIDDLE
00:08:39.56\00:08:42.86
OF GOD'S LAW THAT SAYS REMEMBER,
IT'S THE LONGEST OF THE
00:08:42.86\00:08:45.90
COMMANDMENTS, HAS BEEN ALTERED
OR NULLIFIED OR DELETED FROM
00:08:45.90\00:08:51.00
THE COMMANDMENT, YOU BETTER
BE REAL SURE OF YOUR SCRIPTURAL
00:08:51.00\00:08:55.03
FOUNDATION FOR THAT KIND
OF SUPPOSITION OR THEORY.
00:08:55.03\00:08:59.60
NUMBER TEN, "DOES THE BIBLE
TEACH THAT GOD'S END-TIME PEOPLE
00:08:59.60\00:09:03.56
WOULD ALSO BE KEEPING THE
SEVENTH-DAY SABBATH HOLY?"
00:09:03.56\00:09:06.86
WELL, LET'S LOOK
AT REVELATION 12:17,
00:09:06.86\00:09:09.23
YOU TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.
00:09:09.23\00:09:10.53
AND THE DRAGON, WHO'S THAT?
00:09:10.53\00:09:12.66
AND THE DEVIL WAS WROTH, THAT
MEANS FURIOUS WITH THE WOMAN,
00:09:12.66\00:09:16.36
THE CHURCH.
00:09:16.36\00:09:18.00
AND HE GOES TO MAKE WAR
WITH THE REMNANT OR REMAINDER
00:09:18.00\00:09:20.50
OF HER CHILDREN.
00:09:20.50\00:09:22.60
WHAT THE
CHARACTERISTIC THEY HAVE?
00:09:22.60\00:09:25.00
THAT KEEP THE
COMMANDMENTS OF GOD.
00:09:25.00\00:09:29.33
NOW DOES THAT MEAN KEEP
SOME OF THEM SOME OF THE TIME?
00:09:29.33\00:09:32.73
NO, IT MEANS KEEP ALL
OF THEM ALL OF THE TIME.
00:09:32.73\00:09:35.93
IF YOU READ DEUTERONOMY 5,
THE LORD IS SPEAKING THERE.
00:09:35.93\00:09:39.40
I THINK IT'S VERSE 29, MOSES
SAYS OR GOD SAYS THERE, "OH THAT
00:09:39.40\00:09:43.26
THERE WAS SUCH A HEART IN THEM
THAT THEY WOULD FEAR ME AND KEEP
00:09:43.26\00:09:47.50
ALL OF MY COMMANDMENTS ALWAYS
THAT IT MIGHT BE WELL WITH THEM
00:09:47.50\00:09:51.73
AND THEIR CHILDREN FOREVER."
00:09:51.73\00:09:54.56
IF WE'RE KEEPING SOME OF THEM
SOME OF THE TIME, EVERYBODY DOES
00:09:54.56\00:09:57.23
THAT.
00:09:57.23\00:09:58.16
I'VE BEEN IN AND OUT OF JAIL
AND PRISON AND EVERYBODY I EVER
00:09:58.16\00:10:00.03
MET KEEPS SOME OF
THEM SOME OF THE TIME.
00:10:00.03\00:10:02.20
GOD WANTS A PEOPLE WHO
ARE CONSISTENTLY SURRENDERED
00:10:02.20\00:10:05.00
TO DO HIS WILL, RIGHT?
00:10:05.00\00:10:06.46
THERE NEEDS TO BE
A CONSISTENCY THERE.
00:10:06.46\00:10:08.83
FURTHERMORE IT SAYS IN
REVELATION 14:12, "HERE IS THE
00:10:08.83\00:10:11.73
PATIENCE OF THE SAINTS: HERE ARE
THEY THAT KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS
00:10:11.73\00:10:16.13
OF GOD."
00:10:16.13\00:10:17.36
REVELATION 22:14, JUST BEFORE
THEY ENTER INTO HEAVEN, IT SAYS,
00:10:17.36\00:10:21.50
BLESSED ARE THEY THAT DO HIS
COMMANDMENTS, THAT THEY MIGHT
00:10:21.50\00:10:25.96
HAVE A RIGHT TO THE TREE OF
LIFE AND THAT THEY MIGHT ENTER
00:10:25.96\00:10:29.06
THROUGH THE GATES OF THE CITY."
00:10:29.06\00:10:31.23
GOD PRONOUNCES A BLESSING ON
THOSE THAT DO THE COMMANDMENTS.
00:10:31.23\00:10:34.76
BUT YOU KNOW WHEN I TALK ABOUT
THE SABBATH TRUTH PEOPLE GET
00:10:34.76\00:10:37.96
RESTLESS AND THEY THINK "WELL,
WHAT IS THIS GONNA MEAN FOR ME?"
00:10:37.96\00:10:40.56
FRIENDS, YOU JUST KEEP COMING
AND KEEP LISTENING AND TRUST
00:10:40.56\00:10:44.33
THAT IF THIS IS THE
BIBLE AND I'M INVITING YOU
00:10:44.33\00:10:47.20
TO ASK ANY QUESTION YOU
WANT, IF YOU THINK YOU'VE
00:10:47.20\00:10:49.63
GOT A SCRIPTURE THAT TELLS US IT
DOESN'T MATTER, YOU GIVE IT TO
00:10:49.63\00:10:52.13
ME, I'LL READ IT TO EVERYBODY.
00:10:52.13\00:10:53.96
I'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS.
00:10:53.96\00:10:55.06
I'VE ASKED ALL THE QUESTIONS AND
YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TO HEAR
00:10:55.06\00:10:58.03
THE WHOLE THING OUT AND
THEN DEAL WITH THE LORD AND SAY,
00:10:58.03\00:11:00.83
"WHAT DO YOU WANT
ME TO DO ABOUT THIS?"
00:11:00.83\00:11:02.86
BUT JUST RIGHT NOW
TAKE THE INFORMATION IN
00:11:02.86\00:11:05.43
AND PRAY ABOUT IT.
00:11:05.43\00:11:06.53
DOES THAT SOUND FAIR?
00:11:06.53\00:11:07.76
BE HONEST WITH YOUR OWN
SOUL BEFORE YOU LIE TO YOURSELF.
00:11:07.76\00:11:10.23
NUMBER 11, "WHAT WILL ALL OF
THIS--" OH, WAIT, WAIT, I WANT
00:11:10.23\00:11:14.43
TO READ A SCRIPTURE TO YOU.
00:11:14.43\00:11:15.80
IT'S IN--THERE
YOU GO, JAMES 2:10,
00:11:15.80\00:11:19.96
"FOR WHOSOEVER SHALL
KEEP THE WHOLE LAW, AND YET
00:11:19.96\00:11:22.83
OFFEND IN ONE POINT,"
HE'S GUILTY OF HOW MUCH?
00:11:22.83\00:11:25.56
DOES ONE
COMMANDMENT MATTER TO GOD?
00:11:25.56\00:11:28.66
I THINK IT DOES.
00:11:28.66\00:11:29.90
ALL RIGHT, NOW NUMBER 11,
"WILL ALL THE SAVED IN HEAVEN
00:11:29.90\00:11:32.93
KEEP THE SABBATH?"
00:11:32.93\00:11:34.50
ISAIAH 66 WE READ "FOR AS THE
NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH,
00:11:34.50\00:11:39.53
WHICH I WILL MAKE, SHALL
REMAIN BEFORE ME, SAYS THE LORD,
00:11:39.53\00:11:42.83
SO SHALL YOUR SEED
AND YOUR NAME REMAIN.
00:11:42.83\00:11:46.13
AND IT WILL COME TO PASS
THAT FROM ONE SABBATH TO ANOTHER
00:11:46.13\00:11:49.60
SHALL ALL--" JEWS.
00:11:49.60\00:11:52.66
OH, ALL FLESH.
00:11:52.66\00:11:55.56
NOW FRIENDS, I'M NOT GIVING THE
JEWS A HARD TIME, I AM A JEW,
00:11:55.56\00:11:58.73
BOTH SPIRITUALLY AND PHYSICALLY.
00:11:58.73\00:12:00.93
BUT WHAT I'M TRYING TO
EMPHASIZE IS IT'S NOT--THE
00:12:00.93\00:12:02.96
TEN COMMANDMENTS AREN'T OWNED
BY THE JEWS; THEY ARE THE CODE
00:12:02.96\00:12:06.86
FOR GOD'S PEOPLE.
00:12:06.86\00:12:08.66
"ALL FLESH SHALL COME TO WORSHIP
BEFORE ME ON THE SABBATH DAY
00:12:08.66\00:12:11.20
IN THE NEW EARTH."
00:12:11.20\00:12:12.83
NOW I WANT YOU TO THINK ABOUT
THE PATTERN THAT WE'RE SEEING
00:12:12.83\00:12:15.03
HERE.
00:12:15.03\00:12:15.73
WE SAW THAT GOD HAD
ADAM AND EVE KEEPING IT.
00:12:15.73\00:12:18.50
IT WAS THERE IN GENESIS
2 IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN.
00:12:18.50\00:12:21.00
THE PATRIARCHS KEPT IT.
00:12:21.00\00:12:22.40
WE KNOW GOD'S PEOPLE, IN
THE OLD TESTAMENT, KEPT IT,
00:12:22.40\00:12:25.10
IT WAS COMMANDED FOR THEM.
00:12:25.10\00:12:26.16
WE SEE THE APOSTLES AND
JESUS, IT WAS THEIR CUSTOM.
00:12:26.16\00:12:29.16
WE SEE THAT WE'RE GOING
TO BE KEEPING IT IN HEAVEN.
00:12:29.16\00:12:31.43
DOESN'T IT SEEM PECULIAR TO YOU
THAT GOD WOULD SAY WHAT YOU DO
00:12:31.43\00:12:34.90
BETWEEN THE TIME OF THE APOSTLES
AND THE SECOND COMING, THAT
00:12:34.90\00:12:37.96
DOESN'T MATTER, I
DON'T CARE ANYMORE?
00:12:37.96\00:12:40.26
THAT WOULDN'T BE CONSISTENT,
AND OUR GOD IS VERY CONSISTENT,
00:12:40.26\00:12:43.56
AMEN?
00:12:43.56\00:12:44.76
NUMBER 12, "CAN WE BE CERTAIN
THAT THE PRESENT SEVENTH DAY OF
00:12:44.76\00:12:51.53
THE WEEK OR SATURDAY IS THE SAME
SABBATH THAT JESUS KEPT HOLY?"
00:12:51.53\00:12:54.96
THIS IS A COMMON QUESTION,
PEOPLE SAY, "WELL, HOW DO WE
00:12:54.96\00:12:57.16
KNOW WHAT DAY
IS THE SABBATH DAY?
00:12:57.16\00:12:58.93
IT'S BEEN CHANGED.
00:12:58.93\00:13:00.13
THE CALENDAR'S BEEN CHANGED
AND WE CAN'T BE SURE AND TIME
00:13:00.13\00:13:02.63
HAS BEEN LOST TRACK OF."
00:13:02.63\00:13:04.06
HAVE YOU HEARD
THESE THINGS BEFORE?
00:13:04.06\00:13:05.63
OH, YOU CAN BE SURE.
00:13:05.63\00:13:06.60
FIRST OF ALL, MY QUESTION WOULD
BE WELL, IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
00:13:06.60\00:13:09.16
DAY SATURDAY IS, THEN YOU
ALSO DON'T KNOW WHAT DAY SUNDAY
00:13:09.16\00:13:11.16
IS EITHER, RIGHT?
00:13:11.16\00:13:13.20
SO YOU GOT A PROBLEM EITHER WAY.
00:13:13.20\00:13:14.36
BUT I THINK THAT WE CAN KNOW.
00:13:14.36\00:13:15.86
LUKE 23, THE BIBLE
GIVES YOU THE BEST ANSWER.
00:13:15.86\00:13:20.30
IT SAYS, "AND THAT
DAY WAS THE PREPARATION,
00:13:20.30\00:13:22.66
OR THE SIXTH DAY WHERE
THEY PREPARED FOR THE SABBATH,
00:13:22.66\00:13:25.33
AND THE SABBATH DREW ON."
00:13:25.33\00:13:27.00
AND IT SAYS, "AND THEY
RETURNED AND PREPARED SPICES AND
00:13:27.00\00:13:30.66
OINTMENTS AND RESTED
THE SABBATH DAY ACCORDING TO
00:13:30.66\00:13:35.73
THE COMMANDMENT."
00:13:35.73\00:13:37.90
NOW I DON'T WANT TO RUSH ON TO
THE REST OF THE ANSWER WITHOUT
00:13:37.90\00:13:40.36
EMPHASIZING SOMETHING YOU
MUST NOT MISS; JESUS WALKED WITH
00:13:40.36\00:13:44.90
THE DISCIPLES AND
TAUGHT THEM FOR 3 1/2 YEARS.
00:13:44.90\00:13:48.33
AFTER 3 1/2 YEARS AT HIS SIDE.
00:13:48.33\00:13:50.96
WHEN HE DIED ON THE CROSS AND
THE SON WAS GOING DOWN AND THEY
00:13:50.96\00:13:53.93
HAD NOT YET FINISHED PREPARING
HIS BODY, RATHER THAN DO
00:13:53.93\00:13:57.43
SOMETHING THEY THOUGHT WOULD
DISAPPOINT THEIR LORD, THEY LAID
00:13:57.43\00:14:00.86
HIS COLD BODY IN THE TOMB.
00:14:00.86\00:14:02.43
THEY SAID, "WE DO NOT HAVE TIME
BEFORE THE SABBATH TO FINISH
00:14:02.43\00:14:05.76
ANOINTING HIS BODY.
00:14:05.76\00:14:06.93
THEY WENT HOME AND THEY
KEPT THE SABBATH ACCORDING TO
00:14:06.93\00:14:09.00
THE COMMANDMENT.
00:14:09.00\00:14:09.86
IF CHRIST HAS BEEN TEACHING THEM
THAT IT DIDN'T MATTER OR IT WAS
00:14:09.86\00:14:12.86
INSIGNIFICANT OR NOT IMPORTANT,
THEN WHY WOULD THEY NEGLECT THIS
00:14:12.86\00:14:16.23
LABOR OF LOVE RIGHT HERE
AT THE END OF HIS MINISTRY?
00:14:16.23\00:14:20.40
OF COURSE JESUS
ENDORSED THE SABBATH DAY.
00:14:20.40\00:14:22.43
AS A MATTER OF FACT, CHRIST DIED
BEFORE THE SABBATH BEGAN AND
00:14:22.43\00:14:25.63
RESTED FROM HIS WORK OF SAVING
THE HUMAN RACE AND THEN ROSE
00:14:25.63\00:14:28.63
SUNDAY MORNING TO CONTINUE
HIS WORK AS OUR INTERCESSOR
00:14:28.63\00:14:31.60
AND HIGH PRIEST.
00:14:31.60\00:14:33.30
HE EVEN KEPT THE
SABBATH IN HIS DEATH.
00:14:33.30\00:14:36.33
THE IDEA THAT JESUS SAID
IT WAS NEGATED OR ABOLISHED
00:14:36.33\00:14:38.60
IS RIDICULOUS.
00:14:38.60\00:14:40.03
YOU GO ON TO THE
REST OF ANSWER HERE.
00:14:40.03\00:14:41.86
"NOW ON THE FIRST DAY
OF THE WEEK, THEY CAME TO
00:14:41.86\00:14:44.00
THE SEPULCHRE."
00:14:44.00\00:14:44.83
WHAT DAY OF THE
WEEK DID JESUS RISE?
00:14:44.83\00:14:46.43
WE CALL IT EASTER?
00:14:46.43\00:14:47.23
EASTER SUNDAY.
00:14:47.23\00:14:49.30
OKAY, NOW IS IT IMPORTANT
THAT JESUS ROSE SUNDAY?
00:14:49.30\00:14:53.46
SOME PEOPLE SAY NOW SUNDAY
IS THE CHRISTIAN SABBATH 'CAUSE
00:14:53.46\00:14:56.20
JESUS ROSE THAT DAY AND
I ADMIT, IT IS IMPORTANT.
00:14:56.20\00:14:58.86
BAPTISM IS SOMETHING GOD GAVE US
TO COMMEMORATE THE RESURRECTION.
00:14:58.86\00:15:02.40
YOU'LL FIND NO SCRIPTURE THAT
SAYS REMEMBER THE RESURRECTION
00:15:02.40\00:15:05.86
WITH A NEW SABBATH DAY.
00:15:05.86\00:15:07.33
THERE WAS NOTHING
WRONG WITH THE OLD ONE.
00:15:07.33\00:15:10.10
WHEN GOD MADE THE SABBATH DAY,
WAS THERE SIN IN THE WORLD YET?
00:15:10.10\00:15:13.90
NO, IT WAS PART
OF HIS PERFECT PLAN.
00:15:13.90\00:15:16.16
NOW THERE WERE OTHER CEREMONIAL
SABBATHS THAT WERE ESTABLISHED
00:15:16.16\00:15:19.46
LONG AFTER YEARLY SABBATHS THAT
THE JEWS HAD, BUT THE SABBATH
00:15:19.46\00:15:23.80
OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
WAS PART OF HIS PERFECT PLAN.
00:15:23.80\00:15:26.20
THERE WAS NO NEED TO CHANGE IT.
00:15:26.20\00:15:27.70
SO LET'S LOOK REAL
QUICK AT THE EVIDENCE HERE.
00:15:27.70\00:15:30.30
THE PREPARATION DAY
OR WHAT WE WOULD CALL
00:15:30.30\00:15:32.56
THE PREPARATION DAY IS, WHAT?
00:15:32.56\00:15:34.36
FRIDAY.
00:15:34.36\00:15:35.60
AND THEN SANDWICHED BETWEEN
THE RESURRECTION YOU'VE GOT THE
00:15:35.60\00:15:38.30
SABBATH DAY OR WHAT WE
COMMONLY CALL SATURDAY AND THEN
00:15:38.30\00:15:41.96
THAT'S FOLLOWED, OF
COURSE, BY THE FIRST DAY
00:15:41.96\00:15:43.73
OR WHAT WE HAVE AS SUNDAY.
00:15:43.73\00:15:46.00
AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE
PASTOR DOUG, THEN MAYBE YOU
00:15:46.00\00:15:48.13
SHOULD GET THE DICTIONARY.
00:15:48.13\00:15:49.76
AND IN THE DICTIONARY
YOU'LL READ SEVENTH DAY,
00:15:49.76\00:15:52.06
WHAT DOES IT SAY?
00:15:52.06\00:15:52.93
SATURDAY, THE
SEVENTH DAY OF THE WEEK.
00:15:52.93\00:15:55.56
GOT THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OUT.
00:15:55.56\00:15:57.10
SOME PEOPLE WILL SAY, "WELL,
HASN'T THERE BEEN SOME CHANGE
00:15:57.10\00:16:00.23
IN ASTRONOMY OR THE CALENDAR
THAT AFFECTS THE WEEKLY CYCLE?"
00:16:00.23\00:16:04.43
SOMEONE WROTE A LETTER TO
THE U.S. NAVAL OBSERVATORY
00:16:04.43\00:16:07.16
ASKING THAT QUESTION
AND THEY SAID, "THERE
00:16:07.16\00:16:09.30
IS NO CHANGE IN THE CALENDAR
THAT IN ANY WAY HAS AFFECTED THE
00:16:09.30\00:16:12.66
CONTINUITY OF THE WEEKLY CYCLE."
00:16:12.66\00:16:15.23
YOU HAVE SOMETHING IN YOUR
LESSON I HOPE YOU'LL NOTICE.
00:16:15.23\00:16:18.60
IT'S AT THE VERY BACK.
00:16:18.60\00:16:19.73
THERE WAS A CHANGE
IN THE CALENDAR IN 1582.
00:16:19.73\00:16:22.40
POPE GREGORY XIII MADE A 10-DAY
ADJUSTMENT AND THE THURSDAY
00:16:22.40\00:16:26.53
THE 4TH OF OCTOBER WAS
FOLLOWED BY FRIDAY THE 15TH.
00:16:26.53\00:16:31.63
WELL, THAT MIGHT MESS UP
YOUR DAY PLANNER A LITTLE BIT,
00:16:31.63\00:16:34.76
BUT THURSDAY WAS
STILL FOLLOWED BY WHAT?
00:16:34.76\00:16:38.13
NO CHANGE IN THE CALENDAR
EVER AFFECTS THE WEEKLY CYCLE.
00:16:38.13\00:16:41.70
FROM THE DAY OF ADAM TO
THE PRESENT IT'S BEEN ONE, TWO,
00:16:41.70\00:16:44.43
THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN.
00:16:44.43\00:16:45.50
ONE, TWO, THREE,
FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN.
00:16:45.50\00:16:47.60
THE WEEKLY CYCLE
DOESN'T NEED ANY CHANGING.
00:16:47.60\00:16:50.76
"DOES GOD ALLOW ANYONE
TO CHANGE HIS HOLY DAY?"
00:16:50.76\00:16:55.03
CAN WE CHANGE, CAN
MAN CHANGE THE LAW OF GOD?
00:16:55.03\00:16:57.30
THE BIBLE SAYS, "EVERY WORD OF
GOD IS PURE: ADD THOU NOT UNTO
00:16:57.30\00:17:03.06
HIS WORDS, LEST HE REMOVE
THEE, AND THOU BE FOUND A LIAR."
00:17:03.06\00:17:08.40
NUMBER 14, "WHEN DOES
THE SABBATH BEGIN AND END?"
00:17:08.40\00:17:12.20
LEVITICUS 23:32,
IT'S NOT AT MIDNIGHT.
00:17:12.20\00:17:15.50
THEY DIDN'T KEEP TIME THAT WAY.
00:17:15.50\00:17:17.16
THE BIBLE SAYS "FROM EVEN UNTIL
EVEN, YOU SHALL CELEBRATE YOUR
00:17:17.16\00:17:22.50
SABBATH."
00:17:22.50\00:17:23.73
NOW SOME OF YOU ARE
SHOCKED AND YOU'RE NOT SAYING
00:17:23.73\00:17:25.56
THE ANSWERS WITH ME.
00:17:25.56\00:17:26.46
I STILL WANT YOU TO
CALL OUT THE ANSWERS.
00:17:26.46\00:17:27.83
DID YOU DO YOUR LESSONS?
00:17:27.83\00:17:29.43
OH, GOOD FOR YOU.
00:17:29.43\00:17:30.50
AND I HOPE YOU AT HOME, YOU CAN
STILL, THOSE OF YOU WATCHING ON
00:17:30.50\00:17:32.90
TV, CALL OUT THE ANSWERS.
00:17:32.90\00:17:34.80
MARK 1:32, "AND AT
EVEN, WHEN THE SUN WAS SET."
00:17:34.80\00:17:41.40
HOW MANY OF YOU SPEAK DIFFERENT
LANGUAGES HERE, MORE THAN ONE
00:17:41.40\00:17:44.70
LANGUAGE?
00:17:44.70\00:17:45.86
SEVERAL OF YOU, OKAY.
00:17:45.86\00:17:46.70
ARE YOU AWARE THAT IN 105
LANGUAGES OF THE WORLD THAT
00:17:46.70\00:17:50.06
THE WORD FOR THE SEVENTH
DAY OF THE WEEK IS SABBATH DAY?
00:17:50.06\00:17:53.96
SPANISH, SABADO.
00:17:53.96\00:17:56.80
RUSSIAN, SUBOTA.
00:17:56.80\00:17:59.16
I REMEMBER I WAS IN RUSSIA AND
I WENT BACK THERE AND TALKED TO
00:17:59.16\00:18:02.70
OUR TRANSLATORS AND ONE AFTER
ANOTHER THEY'RE GOING, "YEAH,
00:18:02.70\00:18:04.70
SABBATH, SABBATH DAY,
SABBATH DAY IN ALL THESE VARIOUS
00:18:04.70\00:18:06.80
LANGUAGES.
00:18:06.80\00:18:07.80
THE SEVENTH DAY OF THE
WEEK OR WHAT WE CALL SATURDAY
00:18:07.80\00:18:09.50
IS SABBATH DAY.
00:18:09.50\00:18:10.90
WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS?
00:18:10.90\00:18:12.10
BECAUSE AT THE TOWER OF BABEL,
THEY WEREN'T THAT FAR BACK
00:18:12.10\00:18:14.40
FROM ADAM AND EVE.
00:18:14.40\00:18:15.16
THEY ALL KNEW WHAT GOD'S
HOLY SABBATH WAS, IT WAS ONE
00:18:15.16\00:18:18.00
OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
AND THERE WAS STILL PEOPLE
00:18:18.00\00:18:20.26
BACK THEN HONORING THAT.
00:18:20.26\00:18:21.76
NUMBER 15, "WHAT DAY IS
THE LORD'S DAY THAT WE READ
00:18:21.76\00:18:25.30
ABOUT IN REVELATION 1:10?"
00:18:25.30\00:18:27.53
SOME PEOPLE SAY, "YEAH DOUG,
YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND YOU KEEP
00:18:27.53\00:18:30.20
YOUR SABBATH DAY, BUT I'M GONNA
KEEP THE LORD'S DAY WHICH IS
00:18:30.20\00:18:32.43
THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK."
00:18:32.43\00:18:33.76
SHOW ME A SCRIPTURE THAT
CALLS THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK
00:18:33.76\00:18:35.86
THE LORD'S DAY.
00:18:35.86\00:18:37.10
LET'S FIND OUT WHAT THE
BIBLE SAYS IS THE LORD'S DAY.
00:18:37.10\00:18:40.30
"BUT THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE
SABBATH OF THE LORD THY GOD."
00:18:40.30\00:18:45.23
THAT'S ONE.
00:18:45.23\00:18:46.73
THERE'S SEVERAL OTHERS.
00:18:46.73\00:18:48.23
IT GOES ON TO SAY, "IF THOU TURN
AWAY THY FOOT FROM THE SABBATH,
00:18:48.23\00:18:52.03
FROM DOING THY
PLEASURE ON," WHAT DOES HE SAY?
00:18:52.03\00:18:55.26
"MY HOLY DAY."
00:18:55.26\00:18:57.30
GOD THERE IN ISAIAH
CALLS THE SABBATH MY HOLY DAY.
00:18:57.30\00:19:00.53
THEN YOU GO TO MARK 2:28,
"THEREFORE THE SON OF MAN IS
00:19:00.53\00:19:04.50
LORD ALSO OF THE SABBATH DAY."
00:19:04.50\00:19:07.96
ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE HE
CALLS THE SABBATH HIS DAY.
00:19:07.96\00:19:11.83
SO WHICH DAY IS THE LORD'S DAY?
00:19:11.83\00:19:14.53
THE SABBATH
DAY'S THE LORD'S DAY.
00:19:14.53\00:19:16.73
REVELATION, THE VISION OF
THAT PROPHECY WAS GIVEN TO JOHN
00:19:16.73\00:19:19.66
AS HE WAS RESTING.
00:19:19.66\00:19:20.80
THEY HAD BEEN COMPELLING HIM TO
WORK IN THE MINES, TRADITIONAL
00:19:20.80\00:19:23.83
TELLS US, AND HE WOULD
NOT WORK IN THE ROMAN MINES.
00:19:23.83\00:19:27.03
HE WAS RESTING
ON THE SABBATH DAY.
00:19:27.03\00:19:29.76
YOU KNOW THEY TRIED TO
KILL THE APOSTLE JOHN, TRADITION
00:19:29.76\00:19:32.16
TELLS US, IT'S NOT IN THE BIBLE.
00:19:32.16\00:19:33.96
DIOCLETIAN, THE ROMAN EMPEROR
TRIED TO PLACE HIM IN BOILING
00:19:33.96\00:19:36.60
OIL TO EXECUTE HIM AND THEY SAY
THAT HE STEPPED IN AS THOUGH HE
00:19:36.60\00:19:39.80
WAS STEPPING INTO A WARM
BATH AND STEPPED OUT COMPLETELY
00:19:39.80\00:19:42.00
UNHARMED.
00:19:42.00\00:19:43.16
THEY WERE AFRAID TO DO ANYTHING
ELSE TO HURT THE APOSTLE JOHN SO
00:19:43.16\00:19:46.66
THEY EXILED HIM TO THE ISLAND
OF PATMOS WHERE THEY WORKED HIM
00:19:46.66\00:19:49.66
IN THE MINES, 90 YEARS OF
AGE, BUT THEY DID LET HIM REST
00:19:49.66\00:19:52.66
ON HIS SABBATH.
00:19:52.66\00:19:53.70
THAT'S WHY IT MAKES SENSE THAT
HE SAYS, "I WAS IN THE SPIRIT
00:19:53.70\00:19:56.26
ON THE LORD'S DAY."
00:19:56.26\00:19:58.00
HE GOT THE REVELATION
VISION ON THE SABBATH DAY.
00:19:58.00\00:20:00.93
YOU'LL FIND OUT HOW
IMPORTANT IT IS AS WE GO ON.
00:20:00.93\00:20:03.16
NUMBER 16, "WHAT BLESSING
IS PROMISED BY THE SABBATH
00:20:03.16\00:20:07.23
COMMANDMENT?"
00:20:07.23\00:20:08.26
JESUS SAYS IN MATTHEW
11:28, "COME UNTO ME, ALL YE
00:20:08.26\00:20:13.20
THAT LABOR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN,
AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST."
00:20:13.20\00:20:20.30
THE LETTER OF THE LAW, REMEMBER
WHAT WE LEARNED LAST NIGHT
00:20:20.30\00:20:23.96
ABOUT THE LETTER OF THE LAW?
00:20:23.96\00:20:24.86
THE LETTER OF THE LAW
SAYS REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY
00:20:24.86\00:20:27.26
TO KEEP IT HOLY.
00:20:27.26\00:20:28.23
SIX DAYS YOU SHOULD WORK AND DO
ALL YOUR LABOR AND DO ALL YOUR
00:20:28.23\00:20:30.93
WORK, BUT THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE
SABBATH OF THE LORD YOUR GOD.
00:20:30.93\00:20:33.40
IN IT, YOU SHOULD NOT DO ANY
WORK, YOU OR YOUR SON OR YOUR
00:20:33.40\00:20:36.13
DAUGHTER, YOUR MAN
SERVANT OR YOUR MAID SERVANT
00:20:36.13\00:20:38.20
OR YOUR OXEN OR YOUR CATTLE.
00:20:38.20\00:20:39.80
FOR IN SIX DAYS THE LORD MADE
THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH AND
00:20:39.80\00:20:42.53
THE SEA AND ALL THAT IN HIM IS,
AND HE RESTED THE SEVENTH DAY
00:20:42.53\00:20:45.33
WHEREFORE THE LORD HALLOWED
THE SABBATH DAY AND BLESSED IT."
00:20:45.33\00:20:48.30
NOW THE LORD IS TELLING US THAT
HE WANTS US TO NOT ONLY KEEP THE
00:20:48.30\00:20:52.16
LETTER OF THE LAW, BUT YOU COME
TO JESUS AND YOU GET SPIRITUAL
00:20:52.16\00:20:55.33
REST, THAT'S THE
SPIRIT OF THE LAW.
00:20:55.33\00:20:58.00
BUT WHEN WE KEEP THE SPIRIT,
DOES IT NEGATE THE LETTER?
00:20:58.00\00:21:01.60
NO.
00:21:01.60\00:21:02.53
EXODUS 33:14, "MY
PRESENCE SHALL GO WITH THEE, AND
00:21:02.53\00:21:08.03
I WILL GIVE THEE REST."
00:21:08.03\00:21:10.50
AND THEN HEBREWS 4:5,
"IF THEY ENTER INTO MY REST."
00:21:10.50\00:21:17.40
AND THE WORD THERE
FOR REST IS SABBATISMOS,
00:21:17.40\00:21:22.03
IT MEANS SABBATH REST.
00:21:22.03\00:21:24.50
SOME PEOPLE SAY, "WE DON'T
NEED TO KEEP THE SABBATH, DOUG,
00:21:24.50\00:21:26.83
BECAUSE IN ROMANS 14, PAUL SAYS
ONE MAN REGARDS THE DAY UNTO
00:21:26.83\00:21:30.76
THE LORD, ANOTHER MAN
DOES NOT REGARD THE DAY.
00:21:30.76\00:21:33.56
LET EACH MAN BE
PERSUADED IN HIS OWN MIND."
00:21:33.56\00:21:35.70
KEEP IN MIND THERE ARE TWO KINDS
OF SABBATHS THAT ARE SPOKEN
00:21:35.70\00:21:39.56
OF IN THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:21:39.56\00:21:41.13
THE SABBATH OF
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
00:21:41.13\00:21:43.13
IS PART OF THE MORAL LAW,
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS WRITTEN
00:21:43.13\00:21:45.96
BY GOD'S FINGER IN
STONE PLACED IN THE ARK OF THE
00:21:45.96\00:21:49.70
COVENANT SPOKEN BY GOD'S VOICE.
00:21:49.70\00:21:52.16
THERE WERE SEVERAL JEWISH
CEREMONIAL SABBATH DAYS YOU
00:21:52.16\00:21:55.90
CAN FIND IN LEVITICUS 23.
00:21:55.90\00:21:58.53
THEY PASSED AWAY, THEY
WERE NAILED TO THE CROSS.
00:21:58.53\00:22:01.96
PAUL IS TALKING ABOUT
THESE CEREMONIAL SABBATHS.
00:22:01.96\00:22:05.56
HE WASN'T SPEAKING OF ONE OF THE
TEN COMMANDMENTS WHEN HE SAYS,
00:22:05.56\00:22:07.83
"IF YOU WANT TO
KEEP IT, HELP YOURSELF.
00:22:07.83\00:22:09.23
IF YOU DON'T, THAT'S FINE TOO."
00:22:09.23\00:22:10.50
HE'S TALKING ABOUT
THE CEREMONIAL SABBATHS.
00:22:10.50\00:22:12.80
SOMEBODY ELSE IS GONNA QUOTE YOU
IN COLOSSIANS 2:14-16 WHERE IT
00:22:12.80\00:22:17.20
SAYS, "LET NO ONE JUDGE YOU."
00:22:17.20\00:22:18.90
MATTER OF FACT I WANT TO
READ THAT FOR YOU REGARDING MEAT
00:22:18.90\00:22:21.20
AND DRINK OR SABBATH DAYS.
00:22:21.20\00:22:24.00
HE'S TALKING ABOUT
THE CEREMONIAL SABBATHS.
00:22:24.00\00:22:26.73
TURN IN YOUR BIBLES QUICKLY
COLOSSIANS 2:14 AND IT SAYS,
00:22:26.73\00:22:33.36
"BLOTTING OUT THE HANDWRITING OF
ORDINANCES THAT WAS AGAINST US
00:22:33.36\00:22:39.46
WHICH WAS CONTRARY TO US TAKING
IT OUT OF THE WAY NAILING IT
00:22:39.46\00:22:43.30
TO THE CROSS."
00:22:43.30\00:22:44.40
WHAT WERE THE
CEREMONIAL LAWS WRITTEN ON?
00:22:44.40\00:22:47.36
PARCHMENT OR PAPER.
00:22:47.36\00:22:48.36
THEY WERE NAILED TO THE CROSS.
00:22:48.36\00:22:50.63
YOU CAN'T NAIL
STONE TO ANYTHING.
00:22:50.63\00:22:52.93
NOTICE IT SAYS THE HANDWRITING.
00:22:52.93\00:22:54.80
WHAT IS THAT HANDWRITING
THAT IT'S SPEAKING OF?
00:22:54.80\00:22:57.50
IT'S TALKING
ABOUT WHAT MOSES WROTE.
00:22:57.50\00:23:00.06
AGAINST US.
00:23:00.06\00:23:02.46
DEUTERONOMY 31:26, YOU
WRITE THAT DOWN AND LOOK IT UP.
00:23:02.46\00:23:06.00
"TAKE THIS BOOK OF THE
LAW," IT'S TALKING ABOUT THE
00:23:06.00\00:23:08.50
ORDINANCES, "AND PUT IT IN THE
SIDE OF THE ARK, NOT IN WITH THE
00:23:08.50\00:23:11.40
TEN COMMANDMENTS OF THE COVENANT
OF THE LORD YOUR GOD THAT IT
00:23:11.40\00:23:15.53
MIGHT BE A WITNESS AGAINST US."
00:23:15.53\00:23:17.26
PAUL IS TALKING ABOUT A
LAW THAT WAS AGAINST THEM,
00:23:17.26\00:23:19.43
IT'S THE CEREMONIAL LAW.
00:23:19.43\00:23:20.76
2 CHRONICLES 33:8, "THEY WILL
TAKE HEED TO DO ALL THAT I'VE
00:23:20.76\00:23:25.86
COMMANDED THEM ACCORDING TO
THE WHOLE LAW THAN THE STATUTES
00:23:25.86\00:23:29.53
AND THE ORDINANCES
BY THE HAND OF MOSES.
00:23:29.53\00:23:33.43
HANDWRITING,
ORDINANCES THAT WERE AGAINST US.
00:23:33.43\00:23:36.66
ALL OF THESE WORDS ARE TALKING
ABOUT THE CEREMONIAL LAW.
00:23:36.66\00:23:39.70
PAUL IS USING THESE
PHRASES IN COLOSSIANS 2.
00:23:39.70\00:23:42.73
HE'S NOT SAYING THAT THE SABBATH
COMMANDMENT WAS NAILED TO THE
00:23:42.73\00:23:45.86
CROSS BECAUSE IF HE IS SAYING
THAT, THAT WOULD BE THE MOST
00:23:45.86\00:23:48.63
INCONSISTENT THING IN THE
WORLD FOR GOD TO TAKE THE ONE
00:23:48.63\00:23:50.90
COMMANDMENT THAT BEGINS
WITH THE WORD "REMEMBER" OUT OF
00:23:50.90\00:23:53.03
THE MIDDLE OF THAT STONE
TABLET AND SAY, "WE DON'T NEED
00:23:53.03\00:23:55.43
REST ANYMORE."
00:23:55.43\00:23:56.86
OR HE'S CHANGED
IT TO ANOTHER DAY.
00:23:56.86\00:24:00.13
WOULD THAT BE FAIR FOR THE
GOVERNMENT TO SUDDENLY CHANGE
00:24:00.13\00:24:03.13
THE SPEED LIMIT TO 10 MILES AN
HOUR AND NOT NOTIFY THE PEOPLE
00:24:03.13\00:24:06.73
AND GIVE EVERYBODY TICKETS AND
SAY, "WELL, WE DIDN'T TELL YOU,
00:24:06.73\00:24:10.13
BUT WE'RE GIVING YOU A TICKET"?
00:24:10.13\00:24:12.13
WHEN A GOVERNMENT CHANGES A LAW,
THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE TO CAREFULLY
00:24:12.13\00:24:15.33
ADVERTISE IT TO
THE CONSTITUENTS.
00:24:15.33\00:24:17.56
IF THE ALMIGHTY WAS GONNA
CHANGE ONE OF THE LAWS RIGHT IN
00:24:17.56\00:24:20.40
THE MIDDLE OF HIS COVENANT,
DON'T YOU THINK YOU'D SEE
00:24:20.40\00:24:22.83
SOMETHING VERY
PROMINENT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT,
00:24:22.83\00:24:25.33
THAT SAYS, "BY THE WAY, I
HAVE CHANGED THE SABBATH DAY TO
00:24:25.33\00:24:27.90
THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK"?
00:24:27.90\00:24:29.03
IT'S NOT THERE, FRIENDS.
00:24:29.03\00:24:30.66
YOU'RE WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED?
00:24:30.66\00:24:31.66
WE'RE GONNA TELL
YOU WHAT HAPPENED.
00:24:31.66\00:24:33.83
MOST OF ALL I WANT YOU TO KNOW,
THE BOTTOM LINE IS DON'T WORRY
00:24:33.83\00:24:37.40
ABOUT THESE THINGS IF
YOU'VE NOT ACCEPTED JESUS.
00:24:37.40\00:24:39.96
YOU'RE NOT SAVED BY
KEEPING ANY OF THE COMMANDMENTS.
00:24:39.96\00:24:43.86
YOU'RE SAVED BY VIRTUE OF FAITH
THROUGH GRACE BUT IF YOU LOVE
00:24:43.86\00:24:46.86
THE LORD, YOU'RE
GOING TO WANT TO PLEASE HIM.
00:24:46.86\00:24:49.80
THAT'S WHAT OUR
NEXT SLIDE TALKS ABOUT.
00:24:49.80\00:24:51.60
WHAT DOES JESUS SAY?
00:24:51.60\00:24:52.80
"IF YOU LOVE ME,
KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS."
00:24:52.80\00:24:56.66
HE'S NOT SAYING IF YOU
LOVE ME, HONK YOUR HORN.
00:24:56.66\00:24:59.13
HE'S SAYING, "IF YOU LOVE ME,
GIVE ME YOUR TIME" BECAUSE TIME
00:24:59.13\00:25:01.80
IS THE STUFF
THAT LIFE IS MADE OF.
00:25:01.80\00:25:04.93
THE LORD WANTS
TO HAVE YOUR HEARTS
