Remembering the Shabbat Part I

Preface

In a Facebook conversation. The importance of the Shabbat or Sabbath
was brought up. In the fourth commandment. Hashem states that you
must honour the Sabbath and keep it holy. MB a facebook friend states
that

When Christian(s) keep Sunday, they are not keeping Shabbat. They are 
doing something else!

• MB Daniel 7:25
  
  "He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and 

  try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be 

  delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time."
  
  This is basically speaking of Christianity. Christians worshiping on 

  Sunday and take as Shabbat day.
  
  They based this according to modern day calendar which rooted straight 

  from the Rome calendar. If translate – they try to change the set times 

  and the laws.
  
  G-d is very clear that you have to follow Shabbat, not sun-worship day.
  
  The New Testament also encourage them that the laws are not so important 

  because Jesus done for you.
  
  You believe in Jesus = you are save, this is their concept. Very dangerous.
  
  When Jews were prosecuted by Nazi and by Rome from time to time – this 

  indicating that “the holy people (Jews) will be delivered into his hands 

  (etc: Christianity, Islam etc) for a time, times and half a time.”
  
  Why the Rome changed the Jewish Shabbat day (Friday sundown to Saturday 

  sundown) to Sunday? How the Sabbath was changed?
  
  All this comes straight from the first Christian’ – the Constantine. Sunday 

   itself is a sun-worship day, this is how this word Sunday came from. And 

  Catholicism takes credit for the changed as well.
  
  History proof that and is in the history record.

  Don Tan Depends how you read the Bible. In the Old Testament, Yahweh is, 

  one on one, with the Israelite Nation. He commands them to obey his precepts. 

  Christians are not Jews but are grafted into the 'olive tree'. Moreover Yeshua 

  calls the Pharisee's, Legalists, and warns them of the consequences of not 

  believing in him
  
  But he continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; 

  I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not 

  believe that I AM he, you will indeed die in your sins.”
  
  ~ John 8:24
  
  Asher Ayer Asher (I AM WHO I AM) ~ Exodus 3:14
  
  Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come 

  here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. Why is my language 

  not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say.
  
  ~ John 8:42
  
  Context is clear in John 8
  
  Don't confuse observing a ritual i.e. Shabbat with Worshiping Adonai (The Lord)
  
  I want you to show love, not offer sacrifices. I want you to know me more than I 

  want burnt offerings. ~ Hosea 6:6
  
  Then he added, "Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: 'I want you to
  show mercy, not offer sacrifices.' For I have come to call not those who think
  they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners."
  
  ~ Matthew 9:13
  
  You can Praise Yahweh anyday or time in the week. Shabbat is there to observe
  a ritual. Does that make sense ...... ?

  Don Tan The Jews however called him a sorcerer because he was conjuring 

  miracles from above
  
  On the eve of the Passover Yeshu (Jesus) was hanged. For forty days before 

  the execution took place, a herald went forth and cried, "He is going forth to 

  be stoned because he practiced sorcery and enticed Israel to apostasy. Anyone 

  who can say anything in his favor, let him come forward and plead on his 

  behalf. " But since nothing was brought forward in his favor he was hanged 

  on the eve of the Passover! -- Ulla retorted, "Do you suppose that he one for 

  whom a defense could be made? Was he not a mesith [enticer], concerning 

  whom Scripture says, Neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal 

  him? With Yeshu, however, it was different, for he was connected with royalty 

  [or well-connected]."
