Your Sabbath Questions Answered

Is it possible to obey the law?
The vast majority of Christians have been taught that since the "law is spiritual" and we are carnal, no human will ever be able to meet the requirements of the perfect law in his or her lifetime. Is this true?

Has God really given us a law that is a great idealistic but impossible goal toward which converted souls should struggle to meet but never expect to attain? Is there some hidden reservation or secret meaning in the many commands to obey the law God wrote on stone? Or did God mean what He said and say what He meant?

Many teach that only Christ could have obeyed that law and only because He had special powers that have not been made available to anyone else. Certainly it is true ...
Shouldn't we keep Sunday in honor of the resurrection?
While many wonderful events in the Bible occurred on certain days of the week, there is no direct command from God to keep them holy.

For instance, Jesus died for our sins on a Friday. That is arguably the most significant event in all of history, marking the moment our death sentence was commuted and our opportunity for salvation assured. But not even one Bible text hints that we should observe this day of such great significance.

However, there is indeed a memorial of the resurrection commanded in the Bible, but it is not keeping Sunday holy. Instead, the apostle Paul wrote, "We were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the ...
Wasn't the Sabbath made only for the Jews?
Multitudes of Christians refer to the seventh-day Sabbath as the "Jewish Sabbath," but there is no such expression in the Bible.

It is called "the Sabbath of the Lord" (Exodus 20:10), for instance, but never "the Sabbath of the Jews." Luke was a Gentile writer of the New Testament and often made reference to things that were peculiarly Jewish - he wrote of the "nation of the Jews," the people of the Jews, the "land of the Jews," and the "synagogue of the Jews" (Acts 10:22; 12:11; 10:39; 14:1). However, Luke never referred to the "Sabbath of the Jews" although he mentioned ...

In Exodus 31:14 we read that Sabbath violators were to be stoned to death. Do you believe the same penalty should be enforced today? If you say that the penalty feature of the Sabbath law is done away, then you have really declared the Sabbath abolished, for a law has no force if there is no penalty provided for its violation. Again, in Exodus 35:3 we read that no fires were to be kindled on the Sabbath. If you believe the Sabbath law is still in force, why do you kindle fires on that day?
