The SABBATH
will
be kept in the future and will be a day of worship.
“For as the new heavens
and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord,
... it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one SABBATH,
[H7676
שׁבּת
shabbâth
shab-bawth' Intensive
from H7673; intermission, that is, (specifically) the Sabbath: - (+
every) sabbath.] to another [
actual word is Sabbath in the Hebrew not another , it actually
reads Sabbath to Sabbath] shall ALL flesh
come to worship before me, saith the Lord”
Isaiah
66:22-23.
The SABBATH was made by God to be kept by all
mankind for all time.
“For I am the Lord, I change not”.
--Malachi 3: 6.
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is
the gift of God : not of works lest any man should boast.
For
we are his workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus
unto good works,
which God hath before ordained
that we should walk in
them.
-- Ephesians2:8-10

"Being
justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to
declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the
forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he
might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Where is
boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of
faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds
of the law. Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes,
of the Gentiles also: Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision
by faith, and uncircumcision through faith. Do we
then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the
law" Romans
3:24-31.

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us. Much more then, being now
justified by his blood, we shall be saved from
wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we
were reconciled to God by the death of his Son,
much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by
his life. Romans
5:8-10
"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."
-- John 15:10
“And hereby we do know that we know him, if
we keep5083 his commandments,
G5083
τηρέω
tēreō
tay-reh'-o
From
τηρός
teros (a
watch; perhaps akin to G2334); to
guard (from loss or injury,
properly by keeping the eye upon; and thus differing from
G5442, which is properly to prevent escaping; and from G2892, which
implies a fortress or full military lines of apparatus), that is, to
note (a prophecy; figuratively to fulfil a command); by
implication to detain (in custody; figuratively to maintain);
by extension to withhold (for personal ends; figuratively to keep
unmarried): - hold fast, keep
(-er), (ob-, pre-, re) serve, watch. |
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 to walk, even as he walked”
-- 1
John 2:3-6.

The keeping of the first day as the Sabbath by Christians can be traced to Constantine, a sun-worshipping emperor of
Rome, who gave an edict that changed the Sabbath to
SUNday. This, his proclamation, actually honors the sun-god instead of The Creator:
"On the Venerable day of the SUN let the magistrates
and people residing in cities rest, and let all
workshops
be closed. In the country, however, persons
engaged in
agriculture may freely and lawfully continue
their
pursuits; because it often happens that another
day is
not so suitable for grain-sowing or for
vine-planting; lest
by neglecting the proper moment for such
operations
the bounty of heaven should be lost.
Given the seventh day of March [AD 321] Crispus and
Constantine being consuls each of them for the second
time."
The First Sunday Law of Constantine 1, in "Codex
Justinianus" translated in Philip Schaff's, History of
the
Christian Church, Vol 3 p.380.
With the Sunday Law, Constantine tried to unite the Mithra (Sun God) worshipping pagans and his new-found
friends, the Christians. Those who honor SUNday; a part of their adopted Christo-pagan religion of syncretism (blending
and compromise),
unknowingly honor the god of the sun.
