Dear Laura,
We have no disagreement in that we may worship the Lord on
the first day, the second day, and so on. I worship God daily. This
is not keeping the Sabbath.
The question arises:
Should we:
"Remember the sabbath day"
"keep it holy"
"Six days...labour, and do all thy work..."
for the reason that God gives --that it is a memorial of
the creation week?
"For [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the
sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD
blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it......."
If you know this truth and don't keep it, it is sin.
If you honestly don't know this truth, I don't believe that you will be
condemned for it in the judgment. But you will miss out on the blessings
for following this truth in this life.
I still need to answer a couple of questions that Izzy
asked. She uses the word "celebrate" for "keep." I believe this is
appropriate because it is a memorial of the creation week, a matter of
praise.
You may recall, Jesus showed the delight of keeping the
Sabbath by lifting burdens and teaching on that day customarily. It was
men who imposed the burdens.
About the services today, they were not what I would call
as inspiring as they are at other times. They were no where near the
inspiration we shared during the Feast of Tabernacles this year. I prefer
an interractive setting. This allows each a chance to edify the
other.
