The seventh-day (Sabbath) of Elohim
“Thirty-five reasons Why I keep the Sabbath”
6. Because the seventh day Sabbath is the LORDS DAY.
All through the Bible we are repeatedly told that the Lord has a definite and special day. The Lord’s regard for the Lord’s day is stressed in terms of possession. For example, as I would say of my hat: “Correia’s hat of Correia, or my hat;” so the Lord shows His possessions of His day by calling it: “The Lord’s day, day of the Lord, or My day.” Notice the following texts:
“The Lord’s day.” Rev. 1:10.
“Lord even of the Sabbath day.” Matt. 12:8.
“Lord also of the Sabbath.” Mark 2:28; Luke 6:5.
“My holy day.” Is.58:13; Neh. 9:14; Ex. 31:15; Lev. 19:3, 30.
“The seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord.” Ex. 20:10.
“The seventh day. . .is the Sabbath of the Lord.” Deut.5:14, Lev. 23:3.
Who can doubt the plain statement of the Holy Bible when it gives all there Scriptural witnesses to testify that the seventh day Sabbath is the Lord’s day?
7. Because the Sabbath is the SIGN between God and His people forever.
As every article has its particular brand or trade-mark to establish its genuineness, as every policeman has a badge to vindicate his authority, as every official has his seal to ascertain his identification and power, so God has a visible mark or sign between Him and His people that forever distinguishes them. TheBible Plainly states what this sign is: “I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them.” Eze. 20:12
“Hallow my SABBATHS; and they shall be a SIGN between Me and you.” Eze. 20:20
“My SABBATHS ye shall keep: for it is a sign between Me and you.” Ex. 31:13
“It is a SIGN between Me and the children of Israel FOREVER.” Ex. 31:17
8. Because the Sabbath is God’s flag.
God has a Flag:
I (God) will set up My ensign, Isa. 49:22 R.V.
“Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.”
Isaiah 49:22 KJV
