? (Music) ? ? (Theme Song) ? 00:00:01.10\00:00:06.86 ? Jesus is worthy oh yes, ? ? he's worthy ? 00:00:06.86\00:00:15.40 ? worthy of all... ? ? all the praise ? 00:00:15.40\00:00:22.63 Pastor Byrd: What's taking place here? 00:00:22.63\00:00:23.70 Paul, yes, is preaching on Sunday, 00:00:23.70\00:00:26.10 but guess what? 00:00:26.10\00:00:26.90 Pastor Byrd is preaching here on Sunday night. 00:00:26.90\00:00:29.43 That doesn't mean Sunday is the Sabbath. 00:00:29.43\00:00:32.73 First Corinthians 16: 1-2: 00:00:34.03\00:00:40.00 "Now concerning the collection for the saints, 00:00:42.70\00:00:46.53 as I have given order to the churches 00:00:46.53\00:00:48.53 of Galatia, even so do ye upon the first day 00:00:48.53\00:00:52.13 of the week let everyone of you lay by him in store, as God 00:00:52.13\00:00:56.20 hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come." 00:00:56.20\00:01:03.30 Again on this day nothing about Sunday, 00:01:03.30\00:01:05.53 the first day of the week, being holy. 00:01:05.53\00:01:07.53 Paul was an itinerant or traveling, preacher, and he 00:01:07.53\00:01:10.66 would go from city to city preaching. 00:01:10.66\00:01:13.20 He said, when I come through your city have the offering 00:01:13.20\00:01:15.33 ready so I can go to the next city 00:01:15.33\00:01:17.50 and help those who are in need. 00:01:17.50\00:01:19.26 Nothing in here suggesting that the first day of the week, 00:01:19.26\00:01:22.23 Sunday, is the Sabbath. 00:01:22.23\00:01:24.66 And in the spirit of equal opportunity, we are in here 00:01:24.66\00:01:27.60 on the first day of the week, Sunday. 00:01:27.60\00:01:29.60 It's not the Sabbath, but you do know you came 00:01:29.60\00:01:31.76 to church and we collected an offering. 00:01:31.76\00:01:33.76 Do I have a witness in this place? 00:01:33.76\00:01:36.20 Who told you that the first day of the week 00:01:36.20\00:01:38.33 was the Sabbath? 00:01:38.33\00:01:39.33 Now, remember you've got to know what you believe, 00:01:39.33\00:01:43.56 know why you believe it, 00:01:43.56\00:01:45.56 and know where it's found. 00:01:47.13\00:01:49.13 Surely, if someone is so passionate that the first 00:01:49.13\00:01:56.13 day of the week, Sunday, or any other day, for that 00:01:56.13\00:01:58.56 matter, is God's Sabbath, surely if you're so passionate 00:01:58.56\00:02:01.86 about that, you can find it in Scripture. 00:02:01.86\00:02:05.20 Where do we get that? 00:02:05.20\00:02:07.20 Well, God prophesied an attempted change 00:02:08.46\00:02:13.83 in his law. 00:02:13.83\00:02:16.40 Go to Daniel, Chapter 7. 00:02:16.40\00:02:20.36 God told us somebody was trying to change his law, 00:02:20.36\00:02:22.93 which makes sense why God would begin the fourth 00:02:22.93\00:02:26.33 commandment with the word remember. 00:02:26.33\00:02:29.20 Daniel 7:25, and the Word of God says: "And he shall 00:02:29.20\00:02:45.70 speak great words against the most High, and shall wear 00:02:45.70\00:02:51.30 out the saints of the most High, and think to change times 00:02:51.30\00:02:59.13 and laws: and they shall be given into his hand 00:02:59.13\00:03:03.03 until a time and times and the dividing of time." 00:03:03.03\00:03:13.16 Now, I wish I had time, because I would break down 00:03:13.16\00:03:19.46 the time, times and dividing of time, which is the same 00:03:19.46\00:03:25.26 thing as 42 months, 1,260 days, or 1,260 years, but tonight 00:03:25.26\00:03:32.60 I don't have time. 00:03:32.60\00:03:35.30 But I do have time to tell you that God in his Word prophesied 00:03:35.30\00:03:42.70 that somebody or something would seek to change God's law. 00:03:42.70\00:03:50.96 We do know that, because the Word says that. 00:03:50.96\00:03:54.56 Now, please understand and stay with me 00:03:54.56\00:03:57.23 here, take some notes, because we're going to 00:03:57.23\00:04:01.23 now show you historically how God's Sabbath was changed. 00:04:01.23\00:04:07.43 How what God prophesied has come to fulfillment as man 00:04:07.43\00:04:14.96 has sought to change God's law. 00:04:14.96\00:04:18.50 The Roman Catholic Church, and I'm not here to talk 00:04:18.50\00:04:24.30 individual Catholics, but I'm here to speak 00:04:24.30\00:04:27.70 of the institution of the Roman Catholic Church 00:04:27.70\00:04:30.90 because there are good Catholic people that are seeking 00:04:30.90\00:04:34.86 to follow the Lord to what they know. 00:04:34.86\00:04:38.70 But I am here now to speak to the institution of the 00:04:38.70\00:04:43.03 Roman Catholic Church. 00:04:43.03\00:04:44.86 The Roman Catholic Church sees itself as the 00:04:44.86\00:04:49.16 mother church. 00:04:49.16\00:04:51.36 When we say the mother church, the first church, or 00:04:51.36\00:04:54.06 it sees itself as an extension of the New Testament church. 00:04:54.06\00:04:59.83 If you don't believe me, go recite any Apostle's Creed, 00:04:59.83\00:05:03.93 be it in the Methodist Church, Baptist Church, 00:05:03.93\00:05:08.33 the Episcopalian Church, Presbyterian Church, 00:05:08.33\00:05:11.86 when they recite the Apostle's Creed at the very end they 00:05:11.86\00:05:15.96 pay homage to the mother Roman Catholic church. 00:05:15.96\00:05:20.13 Catholic, by virtue of its name means universal. 00:05:20.13\00:05:24.10 Which means universal is everywhere. 00:05:24.10\00:05:26.40 The Roman Catholic Church sees itself as the extension 00:05:26.40\00:05:31.93 of the New Testament church. 00:05:31.93\00:05:36.10 So after the New Testament church, Christian church, 00:05:36.10\00:05:39.76 followers of Christ, the Roman Catholic Church sees 00:05:39.76\00:05:43.20 itself as its extension. 00:05:43.20\00:05:45.90 And it has founded that thought process in Matthew, 00:05:45.90\00:05:49.46 Chapter 16:18 where the Word of Gods says: "Upon this rock 00:05:49.46\00:05:54.76 I will build my church." 00:05:54.76\00:05:57.50 And where they've gone in error is, they are thinking 00:05:57.50\00:06:00.73 that upon this upon this rock I will build my church 00:06:00.73\00:06:05.20 is the rock, Peter. 00:06:05.20\00:06:06.20 What they have mistaken is, Jesus, in Matthew 16:18 00:06:06.20\00:06:08.83 is not talking about the rock, Peter, but Jesus is speaking 00:06:08.83\00:06:12.63 of himself. 00:06:12.63\00:06:13.70 How can you found and find a church on Peter. 00:06:13.70\00:06:17.53 Jesus' church is founded on Jesus Christ, the solid rock, 00:06:17.53\00:06:22.86 the sure foundation. 00:06:22.86\00:06:24.53 On Christ, the solid rock I stand, all other ground 00:06:24.53\00:06:29.16 is sinking sand. 00:06:29.16\00:06:31.30 Pastor Byrd, as persuasive as you might think I am, 00:06:31.30\00:06:38.06 I cannot make you do anything. 00:06:38.06\00:06:40.23 The church cannot make you do a thing. 00:06:40.23\00:06:43.90 We can't legalize anything. 00:06:43.90\00:06:51.80 But when there is a union of what we call church 00:06:51.80\00:06:57.90 and state, or church and government, what the church 00:06:57.90\00:07:02.80 can't make you do, the state or the government can 00:07:02.80\00:07:07.03 make you do. 00:07:07.03\00:07:09.00 Are you hearing what I'm saying? 00:07:09.00\00:07:11.00 That's why in 2012 when you hear talk about new world 00:07:11.00\00:07:15.30 orders, when you hear talk about union of church 00:07:15.30\00:07:18.33 and states, when you see us moving to a cashless society, 00:07:18.33\00:07:24.20 understand that these are all signs that Jesus 00:07:24.20\00:07:28.30 is soon to come. 00:07:28.30\00:07:29.60 Because when you study Revelation, the day is going 00:07:29.60\00:07:31.73 to come when the people of God will not be able to buy 00:07:31.73\00:07:35.33 or sell. 00:07:35.33\00:07:36.70 Why do you hear all this talk about uniting 00:07:36.70\00:07:39.13 North American Free Trade Agreement with NAFTA 00:07:39.13\00:07:42.33 and getting currency that is similar? 00:07:42.33\00:07:45.00 In Europe they already the euro and all of this. 00:07:45.00\00:07:47.80 Why do you think that I can now go into the airport, 00:07:47.80\00:07:50.96 buy U.S.A. Today, not with a dollar, 00:07:50.96\00:07:53.43 but with my credit card? 00:07:53.43\00:07:54.60 I can go to McDonald's now and buy some fries 00:07:54.60\00:07:58.86 with a credit card. 00:07:58.86\00:08:00.70 You don't need money anymore. 00:08:00.70\00:08:01.70 I don't need money anymore, because, understand, all you 00:08:01.70\00:08:04.43 need is that card and with that card you better believe 00:08:04.43\00:08:07.43 the government can find out any and everything about you, 00:08:07.43\00:08:10.46 all they need is that card. 00:08:10.46\00:08:12.46 So when there's a union, church and state, 00:08:19.43\00:08:23.33 you have a problem. 00:08:23.33\00:08:25.33 The mother church couldn't make anybody do anything. 00:08:26.86\00:08:32.46 The mother church as extension, as it saw itself, 00:08:32.46\00:08:38.06 of the New Testament church, begins to go down in time 00:08:38.06\00:08:40.66 and the mother church begins to institute things that are 00:08:40.66\00:08:45.63 not biblically based, but are based on tradition. 00:08:45.63\00:08:49.86 But it goes a step further, because in the year 321 A.D., 00:08:49.86\00:08:53.56 write that down, go look it up on the Internet tonight, 00:08:53.56\00:08:58.90 the Roman emperor by the name of Constantine 00:09:00.36\00:09:04.63 puts in the Council of Laodicea, 321 A.D., 00:09:07.20\00:09:13.30 an edict that says on the venerable day 00:09:13.30\00:09:16.76 of the sun in worship of the pagan sun god, 00:09:16.76\00:09:21.76 let all the magistrates in the city cease from working, 00:09:21.76\00:09:27.50 because we're not worshipping or paying homage 00:09:27.50\00:09:30.96 to the sun god. 00:09:30.96\00:09:31.96 And so gradually, what the church can't do, 00:09:31.96\00:09:35.66 the government or the state does do. 00:09:35.66\00:09:38.90 And so now, we slowly see the prophecy of Daniel 7:25 00:09:38.90\00:09:43.73 coming to pass, because the sacredness of God's Sabbath 00:09:43.73\00:09:48.00 is slowly being transferred from Saturday the Sabbath, 00:09:48.00\00:09:53.86 the seventh day of the week, to Sunday, the first day 00:09:53.86\00:09:58.50 of the week. 00:09:58.50\00:09:59.86 In 336 A.D., what took place in 321 A.D. is expanded, 00:09:59.86\00:10:08.36 because in 321 A.D., as I said, it was just 00:10:08.36\00:10:10.90 the persons who worked in the city, but it didn't mean 00:10:10.90\00:10:13.13 the people in the rural or country farm areas, 00:10:13.13\00:10:15.63 because agriculture was a way of business 00:10:15.63\00:10:17.63 for people. 00:10:17.63\00:10:18.63 But in 336 A.D. 00:10:18.63\00:10:20.90 this edict, this command, this law extended beyond just 00:10:20.90\00:10:26.60 those who worked in the city, but now it extended to 00:10:26.60\00:10:29.86 everybody who worked in the fields, who worked in 00:10:29.86\00:10:32.43 agriculture, who worked in rural areas that on the 00:10:32.43\00:10:35.63 venerable day of the sun, cease your work in recognition, 00:10:35.63\00:10:41.76 in homage, to Sunday, the first day of the week, 00:10:41.76\00:10:45.76 the sun god. 00:10:45.76\00:10:47.20 Slowly we see the solemnity and sacredness of the Sabbath 00:10:47.20\00:10:51.63 being transferred. 00:10:51.63\00:10:54.13 We then now go down through the years, and I'm summarizing, 00:10:54.13\00:10:56.93 go to any church and check out what 00:10:56.93\00:10:58.93 I'm talking about, but I'm summarizing 00:10:58.93\00:11:01.00 for the sake of time. 00:11:01.00\00:11:02.03 We then go down and we discover that the Roman 00:11:02.03\00:11:05.86 Catholic Church, the mother church, in 00:11:05.86\00:11:07.86 support of all this begins to institute 00:11:07.86\00:11:12.23 different practices, different traditions 00:11:12.23\00:11:15.13 that have nothing to do with the Word of God. 00:11:15.13\00:11:19.00 Infant baptism. 00:11:20.23\00:11:23.33 Where in Scripture have you ever seen 00:11:23.33\00:11:25.73 a baby being baptized? 00:11:25.73\00:11:27.60 Purgatory. 00:11:27.60\00:11:28.60 Where in Scripture is there anything where purgatory 00:11:28.60\00:11:32.30 or someone is in limbo where they're in between heaven 00:11:32.30\00:11:36.20 and hell and you can pray them out. 00:11:36.20\00:11:38.26 Confession. 00:11:38.26\00:11:40.80 Where is it, why is it that you've got to go confess 00:11:40.80\00:11:43.86 your sins to somebody through a window, plead for 00:11:43.86\00:11:46.86 forgiveness of sin, when the Bible says in 1 John 1:9, 00:11:46.86\00:11:50.43 if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us 00:11:50.43\00:11:54.00 our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 00:11:54.00\00:11:56.70 Why do I have to go tell another man who's a sinner 00:11:56.70\00:11:59.16 just like me and ask him for forgiveness of sin 00:11:59.16\00:12:01.73 when there's no other name under heaven 00:12:01.73\00:12:03.73 where I can be saved but save the name of Jesus. 00:12:03.73\00:12:06.73 Why is it now that in order to receive forgiveness of sin 00:12:10.13\00:12:14.80 I have to pay indulgences. 00:12:14.80\00:12:17.73 I've got to pay money to the church. 00:12:20.06\00:12:23.36 A gentleman by the name of Johann Tetzel has the treasure, 00:12:23.36\00:12:29.40 and he's taken payment from people in exchange 00:12:29.40\00:12:32.30 for the forgiveness of sin. 00:12:32.30\00:12:34.30 So in the year 1570, 00:12:36.16\00:12:38.16 a gentleman by the name of Martin Luther comes on 00:12:39.80\00:12:44.63 the scene, and he says, all of this what the 00:12:44.63\00:12:48.26 mother church is doing is based in tradition. 00:12:48.26\00:12:52.26 None o this is rooted in the Word of God. 00:12:52.26\00:12:57.00 And so Martin Luther decides to go up against 00:12:57.00\00:13:01.13 the mother church. 00:13:01.13\00:13:03.03 And he nails 95 theses or statements to the church 00:13:03.03\00:13:09.30 in Wittenberg in Germany protesting against 00:13:09.30\00:13:13.80 the abuses of the mother Roman Catholic Church. 00:13:13.80\00:13:17.80 Now, you need to understand, this was a tough thing to do 00:13:17.80\00:13:20.03 at that time, to go up against the church. 00:13:20.03\00:13:22.73 But God always sends a Moses in his respective time. 00:13:22.73\00:13:28.30 And so he protests against the abuses of the Catholic 00:13:28.30\00:13:31.93 Church and out of these protests we get protest, 00:13:31.93\00:13:36.13 Protestant Reformation. 00:13:36.13\00:13:39.43 And so now through the Protestant Reformation 00:13:39.43\00:13:41.93 we have a split in the mother church. 00:13:41.93\00:13:44.73 And so that's why now when people ask you 00:13:44.73\00:13:46.96 what part of Christianity are you? 00:13:46.96\00:13:49.36 You either say are you Catholic or are you Protestant, 00:13:49.36\00:13:52.73 because out of the Protestant Reformation 00:13:52.73\00:13:54.83 came all these Protestant churches. 00:13:54.83\00:13:57.83 Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, 00:13:59.03\00:14:07.26 Wesleyan, all these different churches. 00:14:07.26\00:14:12.10 My only regret is that I was not alive in 1517, because I 00:14:12.10\00:14:21.90 would have Martin Luther's sidekick, and I would 00:14:21.90\00:14:25.46 have said, Brother Luther, we can't just stop 00:14:25.46\00:14:31.30 with indulgences, we can't just stop with purgatory, 00:14:31.30\00:14:37.23 we can't stop with counterfeit baptism, but, Brother Luther, 00:14:37.23\00:14:44.10 what are we going to do about the Sabbath? 00:14:44.10\00:14:51.03 What are we going to do about the Sabbath? 00:14:51.03\00:15:01.76 Unfortunately I was not alive. 00:15:01.76\00:15:04.93 But it's 2012 and I ask you, what are we going to do 00:15:04.93\00:15:14.83 about the Sabbath? 00:15:14.83\00:15:19.36 I don't know what you're going to do, but I'm going 00:15:19.36\00:15:25.13 to follow John 24:15 where it says, 00:15:25.13\00:15:29.76 choose you this day whom you're going to serve, 00:15:29.76\00:15:35.56 but as for me, and my house, we're going to serve the Lord. 00:15:35.56\00:15:46.96 Pastor Byrd, I've been doing it this way for so many years 00:15:46.96\00:15:50.30 and I just--it's just been a part of who I am. 00:15:50.30\00:15:54.66 If any man be in Christ, he's a new creature. 00:15:58.26\00:16:03.36 The old things are past away, all things become new. 00:16:03.36\00:16:06.80 Somebody needs to praise God. 00:16:06.80\00:16:10.43 That you came to this revival, this young man 00:16:10.43\00:16:13.16 talking about Breath of Life, talking about know what 00:16:13.16\00:16:16.43 you believe, know why you believe it, know where 00:16:16.43\00:16:19.43 it's found. 00:16:19.43\00:16:20.86 Praise God, you came here and you got the Word of God. 00:16:20.86\00:16:25.06 It may not be popular, but then my daddy told me, 00:16:25.06\00:16:29.53 you can't be popular and prophetic at the same time. 00:16:29.53\00:16:33.80 You've got to call it like it is. 00:16:33.80\00:16:37.70 Mark, Chapter 7, verse 6 through 9, 00:16:40.70\00:16:46.10 audience( preach preacher!) doing the best I can. 00:16:46.10\00:16:49.96 audience (Amen) Mark 7:6, "He answered 00:16:49.96\00:16:58.43 and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you 00:16:58.43\00:17:04.63 hypocrites, as it is written, This people 00:17:04.63\00:17:06.90 honoureth me with their lips, but their heart 00:17:06.90\00:17:08.96 is far from me. 00:17:08.96\00:17:09.96 Howbeit in vain do they worship me; 00:17:09.96\00:17:11.96 teaching for doctrines that commandments of men. 00:17:11.96\00:17:13.96 For laying aside the commandment of God, 00:17:13.96\00:17:15.96 ye hold the traditions of men, as the washing of pots 00:17:15.96\00:17:18.50 and cups: and many other such 00:17:18.50\00:17:20.50 like things ye do. 00:17:20.50\00:17:21.50 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject 00:17:21.50\00:17:27.40 the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own 00:17:27.40\00:17:33.83 tradition." Truth or tradition. 00:17:33.83\00:17:50.53 As was in the days of Noah, so shall it also be 00:17:50.53\00:17:57.40 in the coming of the Son of man. 00:17:57.40\00:18:01.46 Noah preached 120 years and eight people got 00:18:01.46\00:18:03.90 in the boat. 00:18:03.90\00:18:04.90 Clear minority. 00:18:04.90\00:18:06.00 Noah was preaching truth. 00:18:06.00\00:18:08.30 It had never rained before, so tradition said, it's never 00:18:08.30\00:18:13.36 rained before, this man has lost his mind. 00:18:13.36\00:18:15.80 And so, because by tradition it has never rained, why do I 00:18:15.80\00:18:21.96 want to follow this man preaching this stuff he calls 00:18:21.96\00:18:24.70 truth and get in the boat? 00:18:24.70\00:18:26.86 Just before Jesus comes, as it was in Noah's day shall 00:18:30.46\00:18:36.26 it also be in the coming of the Son of man, Jesus Christ. 00:18:36.26\00:18:39.93 But, Pastor Byrd, everybody else going on Sunday. 00:18:39.93\00:18:45.93 Everybody going on Sunday treats it as the Sabbath. 00:18:45.93\00:18:48.06 As it was in days of Noah, so shall it also be 00:18:48.06\00:18:52.43 in the coming of the Son of man. 00:18:52.43\00:18:54.43 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end 00:18:54.43\00:19:00.20 thereof is destruction, for broad is the way. 00:19:00.20\00:19:03.56 But narrow is the way 00:19:06.30\00:19:08.30 that leadeth into eternal life. 00:19:10.06\00:19:11.36 So, you know what, you all? 00:19:11.36\00:19:13.73 Forty years old now, I've been lied on, 00:19:13.73\00:19:20.53 I've been cheated on, I've been talked about, 00:19:20.53\00:19:26.10 mistreated, I've been up, I've been down, 00:19:26.10\00:19:32.83 almost to the ground, but I learned, 00:19:32.83\00:19:39.30 as long as I've got King Jesus, I don't need nobody else. 00:19:39.30\00:19:50.16 I've got a beautiful wife. 00:19:50.16\00:19:52.56 I've got two beautiful children. 00:19:52.56\00:19:55.13 I've got my Jesus and that's all I need. 00:19:55.13\00:20:00.10 Because as for me and my house, because I love the Lord, 00:20:00.10\00:20:05.83 I'm going to serve him. 00:20:05.83\00:20:07.73 If you have the will, God has the way. 00:20:07.73\00:20:24.43 From Scripture God has proved the Sabbath. 00:20:24.43\00:20:31.03 Prove Sunday. 00:20:31.03\00:20:35.30 But you don't have to do that, because I know you love God 00:20:35.30\00:20:42.23 and you came back tonight because you love God. 00:20:42.23\00:20:46.30 And you came back tonight because you love God and you 00:20:46.30\00:20:50.00 want to do whatever God would have you do. 00:20:50.00\00:20:54.40 It may be unpopular, it may be unfamiliar, but God says, 00:20:54.40\00:21:02.53 my way is not your ways, my thoughts are 00:21:02.53\00:21:06.70 not your thoughts. 00:21:06.70\00:21:07.70 God, whatever you want me to do, I'm going to do. 00:21:07.70\00:21:12.73 Wherever you want me to go, I'm going to go. 00:21:12.73\00:21:16.33 It's my desire to be just as you would have me to be. 00:21:16.33\00:21:19.43 The Word says, sanctify them, through thy what, everybody? 00:21:19.43\00:21:22.96 (Aud: Truth.) Thy Word is truth. 00:21:22.96\00:21:28.50 Truth needs no defense. 00:21:28.50\00:21:34.23 Truth is just that. 00:21:37.00\00:21:38.56 Truth. 00:21:38.56\00:21:42.16 Sa thy truth. 00:21:42.16\00:21:44.26 Thy Word is truth. 00:21:44.26\00:21:45.26 Tonight I don't have any of the pamphlets up here, 00:21:45.26\00:21:47.60 all I've got is one thing, the Word of God. 00:21:47.60\00:21:50.83 ? soft Piano in background ? God's truth is most important 00:21:50.83\00:21:56.46 because God's truth will do what, everybody? 00:21:56.46\00:22:00.06 Set you free. 00:22:00.06\00:22:02.13 Some of you are in bondage, some of you are chained up, 00:22:02.13\00:22:07.16 some of you feel you're in a prison. 00:22:07.16\00:22:09.63 And let me tell you something, you've gotten 00:22:09.63\00:22:12.16 the Word of God, you've gotten God's truth, your life 00:22:12.16\00:22:14.46 will never be the same again. 00:22:14.46\00:22:16.46 God's truth is most important. 00:22:18.43\00:22:21.33 If God said it, well that settles it. 00:22:21.33\00:22:23.33 On the seventh day God ended 00:22:23.33\00:22:29.33 his work which he had done. 00:22:31.80\00:22:34.43 He rested on the seventh day from all his work which he 00:22:34.43\00:22:36.43 had done and then God blessed the seventh day 00:22:36.43\00:22:38.43 and sanctified it, because in it he rested 00:22:38.43\00:22:40.43 from all his work which God had created 00:22:40.43\00:22:42.60 and made. 00:22:42.60\00:22:44.46 So he did what on the seventh day? 00:22:44.46\00:22:46.73 Come on, you all, he did what, everybody? 00:22:46.73\00:22:48.73 He rested on the seventh day. 00:22:48.73\00:22:50.63 He blessed the seventh day and he sanctified 00:22:50.63\00:22:55.96 the seventh day. 00:22:55.96\00:22:57.96 Remember the what day, everybody? 00:22:59.33\00:23:01.70 Remember the what day, everybody? 00:23:01.70\00:23:03.70 (Aud: Seventh.) To keep it what? 00:23:03.70\00:23:05.70 (Aud: Holy.) Six days shalt thou labor and do all thy what, 00:23:05.70\00:23:07.70 everybody? 00:23:07.70\00:23:08.70 (Aud: Work.) But the seventh day is the what? 00:23:08.70\00:23:10.70 (Aud: Sabbath.) Of the Lord thy what? 00:23:10.70\00:23:12.70 (Aud: God.) In it thou shalt not do any work. 00:23:12.70\00:23:14.70 Thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy 00:23:14.70\00:23:16.70 manservant, thy maidservant or thy cattle, nor thy stranger 00:23:16.70\00:23:18.70 that is within thy midst. 00:23:18.70\00:23:20.60 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea 00:23:20.60\00:23:23.03 and all that in it is and rested the seventh day. 00:23:23.03\00:23:25.46 Wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day 00:23:25.46\00:23:28.53 and hallowed it. 00:23:28.53\00:23:30.46 God said, hallow my Sabbath. 00:23:30.46\00:23:33.10 There shall be a sign between me and you that ye may know 00:23:33.10\00:23:35.76 that I am the Lord. 00:23:35.76\00:23:40.30 Did God change his law on the Sabbath? 00:23:40.30\00:23:42.36 The answer to that is what, everybody? 00:23:42.36\00:23:44.36 No. 00:23:44.36\00:23:45.36 No, he didn't. 00:23:45.36\00:23:46.36 For I am the Lord, he said, I change what? 00:23:46.36\00:23:48.36 Not. 00:23:48.36\00:23:49.36 Therefore, ye sons of Jacob be not consumed by covenant 00:23:49.36\00:23:51.36 will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out 00:23:51.36\00:23:53.36 of my lips. 00:23:53.36\00:23:54.86 Jesus kept the law including the Bible Sabbath. 00:23:54.86\00:23:56.86 Luke 4:16 says, "And he came to Nazareth, where he had 00:23:56.86\00:23:59.90 been brought up: and as his custom was, he went into 00:23:59.90\00:24:01.96 the synagogue," the church, "on the Sabbath day, and stood 00:24:01.96\00:24:04.00 up for to read." Did Jesus change the law of the Sabbath? 00:24:04.00\00:24:06.70 The answer to that is what, everybody? 00:24:06.70\00:24:09.20 No. 00:24:09.20\00:24:10.20 Think not that I've come to destroy the law 00:24:10.20\00:24:12.20 and the prophets. 00:24:12.20\00:24:13.20 I've come not to destroy but to fulfill, 00:24:13.20\00:24:15.20 for verily I say unto you, until heaven and earth pass, 00:24:15.20\00:24:17.20 one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass 00:24:17.20\00:24:19.20 from the law till all be fulfilled. 00:24:19.20\00:24:21.20 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least 00:24:21.20\00:24:23.20 commandments and shall teach men so, he shall be 00:24:23.20\00:24:25.50 called least in the kingdom of heaven. 00:24:25.50\00:24:28.36 I've got to teach God's commandments, because 00:24:28.36\00:24:30.36 I can't be called least in God's kingdom. 00:24:30.36\00:24:33.86 But whosoever shall do and teach it, the same shall be 00:24:33.86\00:24:38.53 called grace in the kingdom of heaven. 00:24:38.53\00:24:41.23 Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. 00:24:41.23\00:24:46.43 Did the Apostles change the law of the Sabbath. 00:24:46.43\00:24:49.90 The answer to that, no. 00:24:49.90\00:24:50.90 They didn't do it either. 00:24:50.90\00:24:51.90 Why? 00:24:51.90\00:24:52.90 When the Jews were going in the synagogue, the Gentiles 00:24:52.90\00:24:54.90 were besought that these words might be preached 00:24:54.90\00:24:56.90 to them the next Sabbath. 00:24:56.90\00:24:58.86 Now, when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews 00:24:58.86\00:25:01.10 or religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, 00:25:01.10\00:25:03.63 who speaking to them persuaded them to continue in the grace 00:25:03.63\00:25:06.33 of God and the next Sabbath day came almost the whole city 00:25:06.33\00:25:10.80 together to hear the Word of God. 00:25:10.80\00:25:13.80 When Breath of Life does its next revival, I think 00:25:13.80\00:25:15.90 we ought to take it to the Von Braun. 00:25:15.90\00:25:18.90 The whole city needs to hear the Word of God. 00:25:20.03\00:25:26.86 Friday, the sixth day, the preparation day, they 00:25:29.60\00:25:32.13 returned and prepared spices and ointments and rested on 00:25:32.13\00:25:35.13 the Sabbath day according to the commandment. 00:25:35.13\00:25:37.46 Saturday is the seventh day Sabbath. 00:25:37.46\00:25:40.13 Sunday, the first day of the week, 00:25:40.13\00:25:42.13 is the Resurrection day. 00:25:42.13\00:25:43.16 Therefore on the first day of the week, very early in 00:25:43.16\00:25:46.83 the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the 00:25:46.83\00:25:49.83 spices which they had prepared and certain others 00:25:49.83\00:25:52.50 with them and they entered in and found not the body 00:25:52.50\00:25:56.16 of the Lord Jesus. 00:25:56.16\00:25:57.53 What's more important? 00:25:57.53\00:25:58.53 To obey God or to obey man? 00:25:58.53\00:26:00.60 As Peter and the other Apostles answered again, we ought 00:26:00.60\00:26:04.06 to obey God rather than whom? 00:26:04.06\00:26:08.00 Now, you've got a choice. 00:26:08.00\00:26:12.53 God didn't create you to be a robot. 00:26:12.53\00:26:16.40 God is giving you a choice. 00:26:16.40\00:26:18.23 But let me tell you something, with that choice, 00:26:18.23\00:26:21.56 for if we sin willfully after that we have received 00:26:21.56\00:26:24.86 the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more 00:26:24.86\00:26:28.80 sacrifice for sin. 00:26:28.80\00:26:31.36 If we sin willfully after we have received the Word 00:26:31.36\00:26:34.43 of God, after we have received God's truth, 00:26:34.43\00:26:37.30 if we sin willfully after that, there remaineth 00:26:37.30\00:26:39.90 no more sacrifice for sin. 00:26:39.90\00:26:41.60 So who are you going to follow tonight? 00:26:41.60\00:26:43.60 You going to follow man or are you going to follow God? 00:26:43.60\00:26:48.73 That's the bottom line. 00:26:48.73\00:26:50.23 PB: In order for Breath of Life to continue its ministry, 00:26:50.23\00:26:53.76 we need you. 00:26:53.76\00:26:54.76 We need your prayers, we need your support. 00:26:54.76\00:26:57.86 To contact us or to make your donation, please feel free 00:26:57.86\00:27:01.10 to give us a call at 877-BOL-OFFER. 00:27:01.10\00:27:06.80 Or you may write to us at Breath of Life, P.O.
