The Real Sabbath. MCGI TOPIC REVIEW

Brethren, it is a good thing that we are enlightened to know what we are doing and where we are going in our religious life. While seeking to keep the commandments of God, we must realized that the dispensation that we are in is different from the one that the Jews were in. The way the Jews related with God is not the way we are going to relate with Him. Some of the practices they were observing are not the same with what we will be observing. We need to understand that Jesus Christ coming into the world has changed the entire system of worship.

The Sabbath which God introduced to the Israelites was good. The Bible even talked about God resting on the seventh day. We need to practice the custom of resting. God introduced the practice of resting so that we should learn to rest and refresh ourselves for effective service. God introduced sabbath to initiate and emphasize the necessity of resting.

Hebrews 4:8 (KJV) For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.

The Jews usually observe the Sabbath on the seventh day. In this dispensation where Jesus has been introduced as a new priesthood, there is a change in the law. We must not abide by the seventh day Sabbath. We have another day as the Bible records in the New Testament. Listening to this video from Bro Eli Soriano will help us understand what day the New Testament refers to.
