The Sabbath is eternal! So are the 10 Commandments! If you love Him, keep His commandments!

I hear God saying “Come out of Babylon!” In this message.

REMEMBER the Sabbath day to keep it holy.. The 7th day, Saturday is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God. His Holy day. His seal in our hearts and in our minds.

Ecclesiastes 12: 13 says "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep His commandments for this is the whole duty of man". the 4rth commandment is the only commandment that starts with Remember, Remember what? Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.

God BLESS YOU for clarifying the importance of keeping the SABBATH .IAM AN ADVENTIST YOU PREACH POWRRFUL SERMON .THAT WHERE GODS SEAL IS.

Rev 14:12: "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus." 1Jn 2:3-6: "And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked." 1Jn 5:3-5: "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?"

Keeping Sabbath day (Saturday) holy is a sign of our obedience the the laws of God as found the Ten Commandments Exodus 20. Sabbath day is the day of worship to give glory to our creator God, who made heaven and earth, the sea and the fountains of water...Revelation 14:7-9

I subscribed today because of an SDA member’s discussion of your sermon! May Yahweh bless, protect, and guide you and your family.

A very important and deep point was made. Even if we had not sinned, the Sabbath would have been called to keep Holy. Therefore, because of sin and we have been separated from God, we are reminded that the seventh day was made holy at creation. And life the family and marriage, the Sabbath is to be kept holy after the fall of man.

Glory be to our God you shall ye the truth and the truth will set you free God we thank you and glorify your Name to reavil the truth about the Sabbath may the good Lord continue richly bless you Professor to teach His word to his children and his people Amen 🙌🙌

The Sabbath is now becoming the centre of debates and will move forward with massive strive . God the Creator will be vindicated and all false teaching against the Holy Sabbath will be vindicated.

Thank you for the message! You may have mentioned this in other parts to the series and if you did i apologize but in addition to the reality of the Sabbath truth originating at creation, it is also tied typologically into the Gospel message. As God "finished" His work of creation on the sixth day in Genesis 2 He then "rested" on the seventh. What did Adam and Eve do during their first full day of being alive? They simply entered into a "rest" that God provided for them and set in motion a pattern for humanity in developing an intimate relationship with their Creator. Time is how we nurture relationship. They entered into the rest God provided and this was outside anything Adam and Eve could supply or add to this blessing. Fast forward 4000 years to the cross of Calvary. Jesus is breathing out His last breath on the cross and says "It is finished". It happens to be the sixth day! Then He is taken down and put in the tomb where He "rests" on the Sabbath from His work in the recreation of man. We enter this salvation by faith! The seventh day Sabbath is truly a message of righteousness by faith. "There now remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God". Hebrews 4:9 When the Sabbath is seen in the light of the Gospel of Christ, its beauty shines forth and brings about the fruits of righteousness. God bless my friend!

Someone discussed your sermon, and I decided to subscribe to your channel...

Romans 14 is about fasting, and not about every day is equal in the eyes of the Lord. You may choose which day is best to fast or to not fast. ❤

More suppott for the Sabbath pre-dating Sinai: In Exodus 16, manna falls double on the 6th day and none on the 7th, prior to Exodus 20, where God says Remember the Sabbath.

The Sabbath started on creation week Genesis

Hebrew Christians still observe the 7th day (Lu.23:56) 'according to the commandment'. Resting on the sabbath was a commandment before the 10 commandments were given (Ex.16:28-30). The word 'sabbath' is not mentioned in Scripture until Ex.16:23. It is then revealed to be 'the seventh day', as Heb.4:4 mentions. God did bless 'The seventh day' and sanctify it (Gen.2:3), and God does not change His mind. Scripture confirms, that 'whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it , that men should fear before him' (Eccl.3:14). This proves that, 'the seventh day' is still blessed and sanctified. There is no mention of a change of day in Scripture. 'The seventh day' is biblical; the saying "one day in seven" is not. The moral law is still to be observed, including the moral 'sabbath day', but the ceremonial sabbaths were fulfilled by Christ on the cross. The first day may be an extension of the sabbath, in a gospel sense, because Jesus is 'the resurrection and the life'. Those that ignore the significance of 'the seventh day' are ignoring Hebrews chapter 4, that plainly reveals that it still points to the everlasting rest of God, and eternal day (no more night there). The Apostolic Constitutions exhorted Christians to observe both days, the 7th and the 1st each week. This obviously is the 'peacemaker' view, that gets rid of conflict and variance about 'the sabbath', a day to rest and honor God.

truth prevails. Blessings

Heaven is rejoicing over one sinner that repeneth❤😢😮❤

In revelation 14:12. The bible says those who will not receive the mark of the beast keep the 10 commandments which the 7th day ( Saturday) Sabbath is apart of. So my question is, what is the counterfiet Sabbath day which if i accept it i will receieve the beast matk?

Bear in mind that our souls are spirit and heavenly in nature so we must allow God's spirit, the Holy Spirit to control them. Let our souls pray to God to pledge his Holy Spirit to come and control them.

I keep the 7th day Sabbath which is aoart of the 10 commandments. I reject sunday keeping bcuz prophecy in Daniel 7 and revelation 13,17,18 points to a power that will seek to change Gods law and history have shown me, the only institution that did this is the Roman Catholic Church. I am not against catholic many are wonderful people but the system has done things that the Bible says it will do.

I think that idea came from the bible: Matt 5:19, 7:23; 1John 3:4. Nevertheless, Seventh-day Adventists don't believe that not keeping the Sabbath = no salvation because salvation only comes from God. We have no authority to determine who is and who is not saved (judgement is only reserved for Yeshua - Rev 22:12). However, when the "mark of the beast" is made into "law", keeping 7th-day Sabbath "in our hearts and frontlets, and in harmony with our hands" will be essential to one's salvation and the time is getting very, very close. YeHoVaH bless.

We don't Honour Our Parents IN ORDER to be saved, but we Honour Our Parents BECAUSE we are saved. Similarly, we don't keep the Sabbath IN ORDER to be saved, but we keep the Sabbath BECAUSE we are saved! OBEYING OUR PARENTS is not the means to salvation. It is not our JUSTIFICATION. Jesus Christ is! But let us remember that while OBEYING OUR PARENTS will not take us to heaven, nevertheless, when we FAIL TO OBEY OUR PARENTS, that sin will SUBTRACT US from heaven! The SAME is true for Sabbath Keeping! The KEEPING OF THE SABBATH is not the means to salvation. It is not our JUSTIFICATION. Jesus Christ is! But let us remember that while SABBATH KEEPING will not take us to heaven, nevertheless, when we FAIL TO "REMEMBER THE SABBATH TO KEEP IT HOLY", then that sin will SUBTRACT US from heaven! God bless you. 🙏

Insightful. I am not 100 percent convinced that the weekly cadence of 7 days is completely detached from the natural lunar phase cycle of 28 days. Jews observe lunar months and add one additional month to the year as we do with leap days every four years. I'm not arguing that the week came after the month, but the beauty of the lunar month being divisible by 4 and 7 can hardly be overlooked.

1. There is NO SUCH "THING" AS A "JEW" IN THE BIBLE! ALL tribes are set out in Genesis yet no such THING as a "Jew" tribe ... who is the patriarch of the "Jews"? 2. There are anywhere from 29 to 30 days in a lunar month. The new moon is day 1 of the lunar month but doesn't factor into the Sabbath day count. ONLY the illuminations, NOT REFLECTIONS OF THE SUN, which dictate the days of the week. The New Moon is an "off-set" ... sometimes 2 day New Moon but mostly 1 New Moon. The Weekly Sabbaths of Heavenly Father fall on the: 8th., 15th., 22nd and 29th day of each and every month. Next pagan Woden'sday is the last Sabbath of the 4th Month. for example: look up: "fourteenth day of Abib" or "Nisan". Nisan or Abib is the 1st month. The first month begins at the New Moon after the even/summer equal nox. The fourteenth day is Passover ... the 15th is the 2nd Sabbath of the New Year. The Edomites celebrate New Year in the winter Equal Nox in the fall ... going into desolation! Incidentally, the Diaspora of the Israelites ended shortly after the Edomites gave the DNA from the Cave of the Patriarchs, to the Cana'anites, during the 6 Days War June 6-11 1967 ... The Edomites claim to be God's Chosen and worked 6 Days and Rested on the 7th day ... ahhhh .... if you look at the lunar phases for that week you will find the Edomites worked on the Lunar Sabbath of that week! Thanks to the Edomites we now have mRNA to attack the DNA sequences peculiar to the seed of Abraham .. Covid is Divoc in Hebrew .. 19 is Aleph/Omega ... 1/beginning/seed of Abraham/TWINS Jacob and Esau ... Omega/9/end of the Seed of Abraham-TWINS Jacob and Esau/TWIN towers-911 the foreboding!

If you read Genesis chapter 7 in the story of the flood, you will notice the months had 30 days. So how if they wanted perfect division of the month, Six days week would have been the perfect number. Then there would have been five weeks every month.

The seventh day is Saturday or Sunday ?

Lord's day?? . Has ANYONE ever asked GOD what day is HIS HOLY DAY??? Try reading Isaiah 58:13--14. 13 “If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath and from doing as you please onMY HOLY DAY, if you call the Sabbath a delight and the Lord’s HOLY DAY honorable, and if you honor it by not going your own way and not doing as you please or speaking idle words, 14 then you will find your joy in the Lord, and I will cause you to ride in triumph on the heights of the land and to feast on the inheritance of your father Jacob.” "FOR THE MOUTH OF THE LORD HAS SPOKEN." --READ THAT AGAIN!!!!! >>THE ONLY DAY GOD RESTED ON_-Seventh day!!! >>THE ONLY DAY GOD BLESSED_-Seventh day!!! >>THE ONLY DAY GOD SANCTIFIED_-Seventh day!!! >>THE ONLY DAY GOD NAMED_--SABBATH -Seventh day!!! >>THE ONLY DAY GOD DECLARED as HIS HOLY DAY_-Seventh day!!! ---NO mere man, Not an apostle, Not a "pope', NOT Mary, NOT even Jesus can change what God wrote and commemded!!! God said in Malachi 3:6 KJV - For I am the Lord, I change not; Jesus said: Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Since NEITHER Change, then the Sabbath CAN NOT changed!!! Unless both God and Jesus are liars.

When man says; "I think" one needs to be wary of what is being taught. Any time man tries to explain God and his ways, you can bet that man is going against God. Christ spoke to creation and it was so. Christ is the WORD. We now are bound only by the flesh, and upon death we are released to join Christ.

4 primary phases of the moon. Each phase lasts 7 days. 4*7=30. I suppose one can still ask, why 7. But I think the 7 churches in revelation have something to do with it. Maybe something like God is not only God of the material,but of the immaterial. Imagine,a guy from Galilee and Bethlehem,a bruised reed he did not break, wound up in the higher society,and was killed by them,but changed the world as we know it. "I have overcome the world."

The Seventh-day Sabbath is for all Man, not only for Jews. (Mark 2:27- The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath.) There are 10- Commandments given by the Lord, not 9. So it includes the 4th Commandment, which starts with REMEMBER. We, SDA Church members, worship God on the Seventh-day Sabbath (Saturday), as what the Bible says.

THE TEN COMMSNDMENTS DID EXIST AT CREATION, The Commandments is the transcript of GOD's Character. The reason they were written in stone in the wilderness by the finger of GOD, is because GOD enter into a covenant with these people and both parties receive a copy of the covenant agreement. The old and new covenant are the same; the old is where GOD enter into a covenant with man who then broke the covenant, and then re-enter the covenant with his SON JESUS who kept it. GOD BLESS, I Hope This Information Was Helpful

Only Moses's seremonial laws has been 'nailed tovthe cross' and not God's law writtin in STONE with GOD's OWN FINGER. The law mirrors God's caracter and tells us what sin is - the wages of sin is death. Some churches only preach 'mercy and grace'. Do your own reseach.

let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind; ❤

All the commandments were given for all times to keep, but man brakes them in disobedience of God and need to repent and ask for forgiveness . Jesus had to come to earth, to keep them all in our place, and He died paying for our dead sentence for not believing in the gospel and obey His Father in believing in Jesus and His Father commandments of love for our neighbors.

"For the Son of man is also the Lord of Sabbath." Mark 2:28 this is clear that Jesus is the Lord of Sabbath because he is one with the father when the world was created, "let us make man in our own image, in our own likeness" in Genesis 3:22 "did you see, man is like us who knows good and evil"

7th day Sabbath was given to Israel as part of the previous covernant and was never change. Jews continue to observe the 7th day Sabbath, so nothing has change. Jesus also kept the 7th day Sabbath because he is a Jew born under the law, and as his Jewish custom was, that is correct thing for him to do. However, under the new covernant, which we gentiles comes in, there is no 7th day Sabbath and Jesus never teach the keeping of 7th day Sabbath. In fact, his disciples broke the 7th day sabbath law according to the Jews, and he defended them, because he is the Lord of the Sabbath. The apostles and the early christians began to break bread and sharing the Word of God on the first day of the week (Acts 20:7). Breaking of bread is the same as our worship service today. Emperor Constantine only endorse what was already practice by early christians. And the Jews continue to keep the 7th day Sabbath as it was part of a covernant made between them and God. We gentiles were not part of that covernant. Gentiles enjoy the same blessings but under a new covernant by Jesus Christ. We continue to obey God but not through the law written on a stone tablet, which was part of the old covernant. We obey God through Jesus Christ who put his laws in our heart, the substance of the stone tablet. Just as the animal sacrifice is the shadow of Christ as sacrifice, animal's blood is the shadow of the blood of Jesus, the 7th day Sabbath is the shadow of God's Sabbath rest made available to us in Christ. (Mathew 11:28-29), a rest for our soul. God rested on the 7th day after creation, and remain in his Sabbath rest to this day. He never kept it every 7th day of the week, the way he commanded Israel to keep, because that was the shadow (Colossians 2:16-17) of his true rest made available in Christ. The 7th day in Genesis only begins with evening but no morning which means, we are still in the 7th day today and God is still in his rest. So the Jews were commanded to keep the Sabbath day (Shadow), but more importantly, they were expected of God to enter the land of Canaan (type of God's Sabbath Rest, Hebrew 4:8) and remain in it. Unfortunately, They didn't because of unbelief. So under Christ, we still keep the Sabbath, but not the way Israel kept it. We keep it the way God kept it since creation. It must be a dwelling place for our soul to rest from worries, stress and all anxieties of life that suppress our soul and not a one day church service in week. With regards to the day, let no one judge you (Colossians 2:16-17) as we now have access to the Sabbath rest (substance), Sabbath day(Shadow) no longer matters. Hebrew 4:7, We have a new Sabbath day called "TODAY". Today we must enter into the Sabbath Rest of God and remain in it For God entered into his rest after creation and he remain in it to this day. That is the way we should keep the Sabbath under Christ and his covernant. This is not disobedience to the law, it's fulfilling the Sabbath law under the new covernant. (Matthew 5:17). Even the Jews or the Adventist who observe the 7th Sabbath day must also enter into the Sabbath Rest of God. It is possible for you to keep the shadow(Day) and miss out on the substance (Rest). Worship shall be a daily lifestyle. Isaiah 66:23 From one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath to another, all mankind will come and bow down before me," says the Lord. That means, worship must be your daily life style, not an activity you perform one day in a week When Jesus returns, we will enter into his Sabbath rest and remain in it for the entire millennium just as God enter and remain in his sabbath rest since creation. We will not keep it the way he commanded Israel to keep under the previous covernant which was only the shadow. God never change, but the way he relates to man and man relates to him change under the new covernant in Christ.

In conclusion, the two great works of God, Jesus Christ, are creation and salvation, with the latter, was reflected in the 4th commandment and was not anymore mentioned in the New Testament, having been fulfilled by Jesus Christ, the Lord of the Sabbath, where Lord means having power by His ressurection through the spirit of holiness, giving spiritual rest to man by repentance i.e. from unbelief to believe in Christ Jesus, giving faith for the forgiveness of sins. Christians are not to be deceived to do this or to do that regarding Sabbaths.

Aren't Christians suppose to follow Christ? (Matthew 4:19) And He saith unto them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. (John 10:27) My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me: (Luke 4:16) And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up: and, as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up for to read. (1 John 2:6) He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked. Acts 18:4 & 11---Paul preached 'every Sabbath' to the Jews and Gentiles for 1.5 years, which equates to about 84 Sabbaths with no mention of the holiness of the 1st day or the day of resurrection. Shabbat shalom.

Wooow... Thank GOD for you sir... Roms 14 has nothing doing with the 7th Day Sabbath in context... Thanks sir

Sabbath now has a third meaning. It pointed to the future when Jesus would make us free from the chains of sin that lead to death by He himself dying and atoning for our sins. In the future it will have another meaning when Jesus returns and we reign with Him for a thousand years. A day is like a thousand years to God so we expect Him to come at the 7th millennium to bring a “day” of rest! Why the church threw away the Sabbath is beyond me. Probably to distance themselves from the Jews when they were hated during the dark ages.

While I do agree with Dr. Godfrey and personally believe in keeping the Sabbath (Sundays for this Christian) I also am not convinced it wasn't just for the Jews. Have a blessed day. 🙏♥️🙏 Exodus 31:16-17 English Standard Version 16 Therefore the people of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a covenant forever. 17 It is a sign forever between me and the people of Israel that in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.’”

@Job395-wx1cy Then there's this. 🙏😊🙏 Colossians 2:16-17 New King James Version 16 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a [a]festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the [b]substance is of Christ. Romans 14:4-7 New King James Version 4 Who are you to judge another’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand. 5 One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; [a]and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks. 7 For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself

@@mikemccormick9667 Greetings, there is a great misunderstanding amongst Christians today regarding Col 2:14-17. I believe that there is only one way to not be deceived, and that is to accept the plain words of scripture as truth. Yeshua said "Sabbath was made for man" not "made for Jews". When was Sabbath made? At Creation before sin, after He made Adam, which means "man" in Hebrew: Gen 2:1-3->>word "rested"=Shabbat. When did Jews first appear on earth? Around 2 millennia after the 7th day was sanctified/made holy/set apart/hallowed. Why does the 4th commandment make explicit reference to Creation before sin? I urge you to study the difference between "ordinance" and law of God. The Hebrew tabernacle/sanctuary service is a beautiful imagery (type) of what was/is to come (anti-type) upon the believers/followers of YeHoVaH/ Yeshua for all of mankind, and encompasses the entire blip of the fallen race until Yeshua returns, which is symbolized as the "feast of tabernacle" ceremony, which is also represented as the marriage supper: Matt 25:1-10; Luke 14:12-24; Rev 19:7-9 Leviticus 23 gives a clear description of the difference between "feast" (related to meat/drink) Sabbath vs 7th-day Sabbath. They were treated alike, but one is an ordinance, and the other is a commandment of YeHoVaH/Yeshua. Lev 23:37-38 gives you a clear "thus saith YHVH" answer to distinguish the two types of Sabbath here and the one in Col 2:16 is referring to the "feast" Sabbaths because it includes "meat/drink". Hope this helps. Praise YeHoVaH for the marriage supper is at hand!

@@mikemccormick9667 You need to read Romans chapter 11. You don't seem to understand who you are in Messiah Yeshua! Also read Ephesians chapter 2.

Dr Godfrey is so powerful ĥe has his own sabbath day. The Saturday sabbath is not man,s own but God,s own.

There is no command in scipture to worship on a sabath. Yes we worship our Lord Jesus

Dr. Godfrey need to take a second look at which day he calls the Sabbath in Genesis. The Sabbath is not Sunday, sunday is the first day of the week. The Bible says after the Sabbath ends (Saturday) the first day of the week ( Sunday) the wemon went to Jesus grave. I realize this today a lot of Christians mixed up the 7th day and the 1st day.. SUNDAY CANNOT BE THE 7TH DAY AND THE 1ST DAY. there are nowhere in scripture Dr. Godfrey that says Sunday is the 7th day and that the early Churches keep Sunday holy.... the jewish nation which God preserved is one of the biggest example that the Sabbath of creation is on Saturday not Sunday. Infact history and the Catholic Church confirm Sundsy is their institution, they change the rest day from Saturday to Sunday.... You must take another look. SUNDAY SABBATH IS A CATHOLIC DOGMA, ITS NOT OF GOD

No command to Worship the Lord on tbe Sabbath

Worship is an expression of 'love' which He does not force, we have to be willing to worship Him on the day He set aside. Eze 20:12,20; Isa 58:13-14; Exo 20:8-11; Rev 14:6-7 uses the word 'worship' in the context of the Creator, not Redeemer nor day of resurrection. Same language is used in the 4th commandment, which also points to the day it was sanctified in Gen 2:3. Rev 14:9-12 reveals more about what the false worship is and in verse 12, it is evidently clear that all 10 commandments are essential to not receive the mark.

I can show you a verse calling people to come together on the Sabbath to worship, but first I'll spin your question to you, where is the command to worship any other specific day...? if you're trying to say you don't have to keep the Sabbath because there isn't a specific command to worship on the day (not true), then what is your basis for any other day? either than that's what you've been taught...? God bless

​@@hotrode6969 You can worship God any other day, but you must also worship God on the Sabbath day (Saturday)

This teaching is way off out into left field. Honouring the sabbath for Christians is resting from the works of the flesh to follow Godliness and holiness. It has zero to do with physical day rest. This was God's plan from the very beginning when he rested on the 7th day. He made it a physical day before Christ came to foreshaddow things to come when Christ would come, and now it is possible for Christians to follow the sabbath by the work of Jesus Christ who conquered the flesh. How important is the sabbath for Christians? Answer: crucial to follow. But it is simply not a physical day of rest.

The sunday sabbath is not biblical , come from the autority of the catholic church👍
