Elce, keep up the good work brother. I have a question. When I read Hosea 2-11 it says that all Celebrations, Yearly Festivals, New Moons, Sabbaths will be stopped. Also, in Amos 8 verse 5 the question is asked when will the New Moons and Sabbaths cease so that they will be able to sell grain and market wheat. In verse 9, the Sovereign Lord appears to answer the question and say those things will end when he makes the Sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight. Am I correct in interpreting that these verses are a prophetic message pointing to the fact that the New Covenant would begin at the Cross and that the Sabbath days would end there as well?
Blessings bro Michael. You are correct to interpret it as such. The New Covenant, started at the Cross, brought an end to those shadows that pointed to Christ (Col. 2:16-17). We are under the New Covenant and aren't obligated to adhere to those shadows.
@@ReverendThunder So what is the SDA argument against this prophecy? It seems pretty straight forward and easy to understand. I get the fact that there is a need for the SDA as an organization to be slippery and have all kinds of creative solutions to apparently straight forward biblical answers to their incorrect theology like misplaced commas and conveniently splitting the law into a piece that can pass away and another that doesn't. But, scripture says the Ten Commandments are the "Words of the Covenant" and The Covenant passed away. These verses show that the OT prophets foretold the passing of the Sabbath and the actual day and hours when it would happen. What is the slippery argument against this prophecy?
@@michaelvaught2679 you've already identified what they do to retain the Sabbath--split the law into pieces, retain the Ten Commandments (and other laws as they wish, dietary, tithing, etc) and claim that everything else outside of the Ten are "ceremonial" "law of Moses" and abolished, except for the laws of Moses that they deem not the laws of Moses nor abolished (dietary, etc).
What do you think of worshipping on the first day of the week, is it prescribed for us today? If it is or is not prescribed how do you marry that to worshipping on the day you choose?
Very nice People on both sides Blake No day is prescribed for Christians to worship on under the New Covenant. Believers are free to congregate whenever they want to. Days of worship are inconsequential to salvation and new covenant faith in Christ. I have a video on this too, which you can access on the playlist.
At 7:35, do you have any official statement from sda/sabbatarian especially sda. That says abraham kept sabbath,? We don't see a please where abraham is told to sacrifice a lamb? We don't see God saying to abraham not to kill/steal. Where is God telling abraham not to make an image? Is the things abraham told by God that are written the ONLY ONES abraham was to do? Was philo an Adventist? No he was a judaiser, peter was too. Justine martyr were the people who drifted away. Psa.89. So does God change? The new covenant is a gray area where the anti sabbath hide. The Prophecy says the LAW will be in the heart. He explained about dispensation. Did God require something different from OT than on NT? What's the difference between adultery in exodus 20 and mathew 5? If you keep the adultery law is in exodus it kills you. But if you kept it in Mathew 5 it will make you live. The former Adventist is so excited until he balantantily lies about sda is isa66. Not a single statement in all adventism that ascribes isa 66 to heaven. That's what hate for sda/sabbath make. Do those jews who worship every day watch babylonian people burning outside Jerusalem ? There's NOTHING in Adventist that say isaia 66 is heaven. That's meant to consume time. Malachi is not the only one that says God is not changeable. Listening to that context has nothing to character of God. The question is question is DOES GOD CHANGE? Check he changed only on the SABBATH! All the other 9 were recycled. Were the disciples reaping? Jesus surely knew sabbath was ceremonial he just put it among the 10! The sabbath I keep that of exodus 20. For God created. The the totality of the sabbath in the Gospels is "what is lawful to do on the sabbath". Jesus uses the title "son of man" that's really interpretation.
@@kennedynyangenyo9456 The OT is full of God changing his mind about how many peeps to zap for whatever infraction. The Sabbath is not a function of God’s character, which is what does not change.

Jesus warns us that in the last days deceiption would be ripe. Here is the test. to protect you from deceiption........Isaiah 8:20 Ecclesiastes 12 :13& 14 James 2 :10 -12 Isaiah 8:16 . There are more texts of scripture that could be used. Did you "pass" the test....I think you fail it badly. Remember God said , "DO NOT ADD OR DIMINISH FROM HIS WORD."
Im so glad Jesus the Son of God rejected the prideful existence of the Scribes and Pharisees but rather choose to identify Himself with the ignorant fishermen, equipping them for service. He himself said, KJV John 15 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. The devil is wiser than yu brother, ask the fallen angels and adam in his perfection in eden, they will tell you. You were created lower than them with a brain like me with 6000years of degeneracy. You and i need the Holy Spirit or we will be raw meat for the ravens. #takenote
Edward Colley you seem to either have a fear of Satan or an affinity with him. I don't see how he gets into a subject discussing biblical contexts for out of used Sabbath prooftexts. You'd do well to consider the context of that text you quoted and you'd realise that it isn't talking about your preconceived commandments (hint, the context begins in 13:34 and ends in chap. 17, it's one contextual speech). Jesus often meet us ignorant but he doesn't leave us that way. The disciples became so learned under Christ's tutelage that we have to study so many things to correctly understand what they penned. Thanks, note taken.
Your initial sermons on this channel encouraged the remnant of God in their journey on the path. Now, it seems as if you have forgotten that the remnant of God are those who keep the commandment of God (including the sabbath of the living God) and the faith of Jesus. "Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your works complete in the sight of my God. Remember then, what you received and heard. Keep it, and repent." (Rev 3:2, 3)
Zachary Kendrick I think that this is what you assume about Matt. 24:20, so here's my response: Matt. 24:20 Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. (The assumption: Jesus knew the Sabbath would be kept 40 yrs after His crucifixion; His death on the Cross did not do away with the Sabbath, it must be kept today.) Explanation- This is a warning that is given, among many others, describing the dire straits that Jerusalem will be in when it will be under siege and is being destroyed. Winter would not be conducive for the disciples to flee, hence the hope that their flight be not in winter. Since the command and instructions of Nehemiah (Neh. 13:15-22), the Gates of Jerusalem were closed every Sabbath up to the Destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. Because of the closed gates, it would be impossible for the disciples to flee and save themselves, hence Jesus says to pray that the destruction don’t come on the Sabbath. Jews would still be keeping their Sabbath, therefore this would be a grave danger for the Jewish disciples in Jerusalem. This is not a universal call for Sabbath-keeping! “Or on a Sabbath” is recorded in Matthew because he wrote to Jews, whereas Mark and Luke, who wrote to Gentiles (to whom the Sabbath did not apply and chances are would not have been in Jerusalem on the Sabbath), do not contain this statement (Mark 13:18; Luke 21). Furthermore, this statement cannot be referring to the entire world as many parts of the world do not have winter nor are some able to keep the Sabbath.
Zachary Kendrick 1 John 5:3 is merely reiterating what the author had explained God's commandments to be in the two previous chapters. Here's what he said they were and what were the controlling message/commandments of his 3 epistles: 1 John 3:21-24 [21]Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God; [22]and whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight. [23]This is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded us. [24]The one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.
I cannot see any sense in all you saying. Sorry Bro Word of God is living and is alive. You are far from the Truth....Bro. You only misleading your own soul. Sabbath is natural to all humanbeing . Even if you dont know it. One day God will make you aware of it. It is there in your DNA doll.
TELL ME CHOOSEN WHY IF ITS IN UR DNA WHY WAS P RESCRIBED DONTS OF SABBATH KEEPING GIVEN TO THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL. IF ACCORDING TO U IT COMES NATURALLY? THEN NO GUIDELINES SHOULD OF BEEN GIVEN BY HOW TO KEEP IT RIGHT? REALLY
Sorry brother, if i may ask, did God spoke to you as He spoke to Abraham. Or are you gided by the Holly Spirit. Like the Holly Man in the Bible. If i was you, i will be very careful. Sorry you sound just like the Pharisees, and the scribes in Jesus time's. Remember Jesus whorn all people, Mathew 7:21-23. Please brother i pray that you don't loose out on the second coming of Jesus Christ. I said it again stop, stop please stop, i don't want you to lose out on heaven. Revelation 18:4. The clock is ticking tick tock, tick tock❤
Remember the words of Mrs. White that you used to recite: "Enfeebled and defective as it may appear, the church is the one object upon which God bestows in a special sense His supreme regard." (A.A. p12) Return to the fold, my dear brother. Do not be ensnared by Satan's deceptions. Use only Christ's method to interpret scripture, not the humanistic method called the historical-critical method... Submit to God! Resist the Devil!
Another excellent discussion, brother. I'm saving these videos into a playlist for future review.
Blessings to you bro.

The Jew to whom you referred, who was debating with Justin Martyr, wasn't it "Trypho" and not Philo?
