YOU COULD ALSO GO TO THE 06:35 REVELATION NOW.com WEBSITE AND THERE'S A WAY TO DO THAT THERE. 06:41 OUR STUDY IS TITLED THE REST OF OUR WORK. 06:45 THIS IS REALLY A PROPHECY SUBJECT. 06:48 WHEN WE FIRST GET INTO IT, YOU MIGHT WONDER WHAT IS THE ANGLE 06:51 AND WHAT ARE WE GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT. 06:54 I WANT YOU GO TO REVELATION. IT SAYS FEAR GOD, THESE ANGELS 07:00 ARE PICTURED FLYING IN THE MIDst OF HEAVEN AND THEY DECLARE FEAR 07:04 GOD AND GIVE GLORY TO HIM FOR THE HOUR OF HIS JUDGMENT HAS 07:11 COME. AND WORSHIP THE CREATOR, THE 07:13 HEAVENS AND THE EARTH AND THE SEA AND THE SPRINGS OF WATER. 07:16 BY THE WAY, THAT'S AN EXCERPT FROM THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT, 07:25 WORSHIP THE CREATOR. WE'RE LIVING IN A WORLD WHERE 07:28 PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE IN THE CREATOR. 07:30 THEY BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION. SAME CHAPTER, IT SINGLES OUT 07:36 THOSE IN THE IMAGE. IT SAYS THEY, THOSE WHO WORSHIP 07:40 THE BEAST AND RECEIVE HIS MARK, THEY HAVE NO REST DAY OR NIGHT 07:44 WHO WORSHIP, WHO RECEIVES HIS MARK OF HIS NAME. 07:52 YOU'VE GOT A CONTRAST FROM ONE GROUP THAT WORSHIP THE CREATOR. 07:55 THE OTHER GROUP HAS NO REST. THOSE THAT WORSHIP THE BEAST IN 07:59 HIS IMAGE AND WHOEVER RECEIVES THE MARK OF HIS NAME. 08:04 TO UNDERSTAND HOW IMPORTANT THIS SUBJECT IS OF WORSHIP AND REST, 08:08 WE'RE GOING TO GO BACK TO THE OLD TESTAMENT AND TWO TO THE 08:11 BOOK OF EXODUS. MOST OF YOU KNOW THE STORY OF 08:14 THE EXODUS. IT IS -- IT DATES BACK TO THE 08:17 TIME THAT THEY BELIEVE RAMSEYS THE SECOND WAS PROBABLY THE 08:25 PHARAOH THAT YOU SAY RULING AT THE TIME OF MOSES. 08:28 THE EGYPTIANS WERE TREATING THEM VERY CRUELY. 08:31 THEY HAD TASK MASTERS OVER THEM THAT WERE WORKING THEM. 08:36 MOSES WAS BORN AS A SLIAVE AND WAS ADOPTED IN TO PHARAOH'S 08:47 HOUSE. HE SAW A TASK MASTER BEATING A 08:51 SERVANT. HE ROSE UP AND KILL CANNED THE 08:56 TASK MASTER AND FLED INTO THE WILDERNESS. 09:02 40 YEARS LATER GOD APPEARS TO MOSES, I CHOSE YOU. 09:05 I WANT YOU TO GO BACK AND BRING MY PEOPLE BACK TO THIS MOUNTAIN 09:09 TO WORSHIP ME HERE. THAT WAS MOUNT SINAI AND GOD 09:14 GAVE HIM THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. MOSES GOES BACK IT EGYPT, BEFORE 09:21 HE GOES TO THE PHARAOH HE FIRST MEETS WITH THE ELDERS OF ISRAEL. 09:28 THEY WENT AND GATHERED THE ELDERS OF THE CHILDREN OF 09:33 ISRAEL. AT THE MEETING SOMETHING 09:34 IMPORTANT HAPPENED. HE SAID, GOD HAS SPOKEN TO ME. 09:37 HE'S GOING TO DELIVER YOU FROM YOUR SLAVERY. 09:40 YOU NEED TO HUMBLE YOURSELF BEFORE GOD AND RETURN TO HIM. 09:48 HE HIGHLIGHTED THAT THEY HAD BEEN KNOW FLECTING TO WORSHIP 09:51 THE TRUE GOD AND AMONG THE THINGS WE BELIEVE MOSES SAID TO 09:54 THEM IN THAT MEETING WAS WE NEED TO -- TO CONTINUE RESTING. 09:57 YOU GUYS ARE WORKING SEVEN DAYS A WEEK. 10:03 LOOK WHAT HAPPENS NEXT WHEN MOSES GOES TO THE PHARAOH AND 10:06 SAYS LET MY PEOPLE GO AND THE PHARAOH DOESN'T WANT TO LET THEM 10:10 GO. AFTER WARDS, THEY WENT IN AND 10:12 TOLD THE PHARAOH, THUS SAID THE LORD GOD OF ISRAEL, LET MY 10:16 PEOPLE TWO. THE PHARAOH SAID, BEHOLD THE 10:19 PEOPLE OF THE LAND ARE MANY AND YOU MAKE THEM REST. 10:25 WITH REST IS THE WORD SHABOT. YOU'RE MAKING THEM KEEP SABBATH. 10:31 I DON'T WANT THEM TO REST. I WANT THEM TO WORK WORK WORK. 10:39 THE PHARAOH SAYS I WON'T GET YOU STRAW, GO AND WORK. 10:46 THERE SHALL BE NO STRAW GIVEN YOU. 10:50 YOU GOT A NATION THAT ARE IN BONDAGE. 10:57 THEY'RE IN SLAVERY. PHARAOH IS LIKE THE DEVIL. 11:08 THE PHARAOH SAYS I DON'T WANT YOU TO WORK, WORK WORK WORK. 11:21 YOU GOT EXODUS. GOD SAID I WILL BRING THEM OUT. 11:36 PHARAOH AFTER PHARAOH LET THEM TWO. 11:39 THIS WAS THE BLOOD OF THE WATERS AND THE HAIL AND THE FIRE THEN 11:47 THERE WAS THE PASSOVER, THE LAST OF THE PLAGUES. 11:51 THEY SACRIFICED A LAMB AND BEGAN THEIR JOURNEY OUT OF EGYPT. 11:55 MOSES BROUGHT THEM TO MOUNT SINAI. 11:59 DON'T FORGET THE LAMB COMES BEFORE THE LAW. 12:05 WE'RE NOT SAVED BY THE LAW BUT THE LAMB. 12:11 BEFORE THEY GET TO MT. SINAI THEY RUN OUT OF BREAD. 12:16 GOD SAYS I WILL RAIN DOWN BREAD FOR YOU. 12:19 BUT YOU'RE NOT GETTING ANY ON THE SEVENTH DAY ON THE SIXTH DAY 12:25 CAN GATHER AS MUCH. IT IS THE SABBATH FOR THE LORD. 12:30 GOD PERFORMED THIS MIRACLE FOR 40 YEARS WHERE HE RAINED BREAD 12:35 FROM HEAVEN FOR SIX DAY CAND NONE ON THE SEVENTH. 12:41 THIS IS BEFORE THEY GET TO SINAI AND THIS PREDATES EVEN THE TEN 12:47 COMMANDMENTS BECAUSE WHEN SOME PEOPLE TRIED TO GATHER BREAD, HE 12:51 SAID HOW LONG WILL THEY KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS, YOU DON'T FIND THE 13:00 TEN COMMANDMENTS UNTIL YOU GET TO EXODUS 20. 13:05 IN THE LAST DAYS YOU GOT A BATTLE OVER WORSHIP. 13:09 ONE WILL RECEIVE THE SEAL OF GOD. 13:13 ANOTHER IS GOING TO REST THE BEAST IN HIS IMAGE AND HAVE MO 13:22 RE -- NO REST. 13:23 EVERYBODY HAS TO BOW DOWN AND WORSHIP THE IMAGE. 13:27 THEY SAID WE WON'T WORSHIP THE IMAGE BECAUSE THE TEND 13:35 COMMANDMENTS SAID DO NOT MAKE IDOLS. 13:39 THEY REFUSED TO BOW DOWN. RISKING DEATH, GOD SAVED THEM. 13:48 AND THEN A LAW, DON'T PRAY TO ANYBODY BUT KING DARIUS OR DIE. 13:59 DANIEL SAID I CAN'T DO THAT. THERE'S A LAW THAT IS GOING TO 14:02 COMPEL PEOPLE, THEY'LL BE TOLD YOU CAN'T BUY OR SELL AND IT IS 14:05 GOING TO COMPEL THEM TO WORSHIP CONTRARY TO GOD'S WORD OR THEY 14:10 WON'T BE ABLE TO BUY OR SELL AND ULTIMATELY THEY'LL BE KILLED. 14:15 WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THESE ISSUES ARE. 14:19 KEEP IN MIND, DANIEL SAID THE BEAST POWER THINKS THE CHANGE 14:24 CHIMES IN LAWS. PUT ON YOUR SEATBELT, BECAUSE 14:27 YOU'RE GOING TO LEARN THINGS TONIGHT THAT WILL SURPRISE YOU. 14:32 I PRAY YOU COME WITH OPEN HEART AND BIBLE. 14:35 WE GO TO THE MAN ON THE STREET AND FIND OUT WHAT PEOPLE HAVE TO 14:39 SAY ABOUT THE SABBATH DAY AND THAT'S OUR STUDY TONIGHT. 14:43 >> HI, TAKE A DAY OF REST IS NECESSARY, AS LONG AS YOU MAKE 14:46 THE MOST OF IT. I THINK EVERYBODY NEEDS REST 14:49 EVERY NOW AND THEN. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A SINGLE 14:53 DAY. >> THEY NEED THREE DAYS OF 14:55 REST. >> I THINK PEOPLE NEED A DAY 14:56 OF REST, TWO ACTUALLY. >> I PERSONALLY NEED LIKE 15:00 FIVE DAYS OF REST PER WEEK. IT IS A TOUGH LIFE. 15:03 >> THESE PEOPLE NEED A DAY OF REST EVERY WEEK. 15:06 IT HELPS RECUPERATE THE BODY. I THINK GOD IS SORT OF 15:17 [INDISCERNIBLE]. YOU CAN'T JUST WORK YOURSELF 15:18 EVERY DAY. >> SATURDAY. 15:26 >> I BELIEVE SUNDAY. >> IT SAYS SUNDAY. 15:28 UP >> I THINK THE DIFFICULT 15:30 SABBATH IS ON SUNDAY. >> SATURDAY, SUNDAY, SOME 15:32 PEOPLE IT IS MONDAY. I DON'T KNOW. 15:35 >> EASTER, RIGHT? APRILISH. 15:41 >> THE DAY OF THE SABBATH IS SUNDAY. 15:43 >> WEDNESDAY. >> SATURDAY. 15:47 >> SOME SAY SATURDAY, SOME SUNDAY, IT IS WHATEVER DAY YOU 15:51 WANT TO MAKE IT. >> LIKE FRIDAY UNTIL LIKE 15:56 SUNDOWN ON SATURDAY. >> FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY 15:59 UP UNTIL SATURDAY EVENING, I BELIEVE. 16:07 THERE YOU GOT FEEDBACK DEALING WITH THE SUBJECT OF THE SABBATH. 16:12 YOU'LL FIND OUT THIS HAS VERY MUCH TO DO WITH PROPHECY AND THE 16:15 LAST DAYS. AS IS OUR CUSTOM, WE'RE GOING TO 16:19 GO INTO THE STUDY USING QUESTION AND ANSWER FORMAT. 16:22 MY QUESTION HELPS ME REMEMBER ALL OF THE POINTS. 16:25 QUESTION NUMBER ONE, DID GOD MAKE THE SABBATH REST ONLY FOR 16:31 ISRAELITES? WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY. 16:33 MARK CHAPTER 2, JESUS SAID, HE SAID UNTO THEM THE SABBATH WAS 16:39 MADE FOR MAN, NOT MAN FOR THE SABBATH. 16:42 GOD MADE MAN ON THE SIXTH DAY AND THE SABBATH ON THE SEVENTH. 16:47 HE MADE ANOTHER DAY FOR MAN TO BE BLESSED IN THAT TIME PERIOD. 16:50 THE WORD JESUS USES HERE, MAN, THAT'S INTHROPOST. 17:00 PEOPLE THINK SABBATH IS JUST FOR THE JEWS, THAT'S ABSURD. 17:06 IT IS NOT ONLY JEWS THAT NEED REST. 17:09 IT IS NOT ONLY FOR A PERSON IT IS FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE 17:11 HOUSEHOLD AND THEIR ANIMALS. EVERYBODY NEEDS REST. 17:14 THAT'S PART OF GOD'S DESIGN, PART OF HIS DIVINE DESIGN FOR 17:19 US. IT EVEN SAYS IN ISAIAH 56, VERSE 17:23 6, THE SONS OF THE STRANGER MEANING NONJEWS THAT JOIN 17:27 THEMSELVES TO THE LORD TO SERVE HIM AND LOVE THE NAME OF THE 17:30 LORD TO BE HIS SERVANT. EVERYONE THAT KEEP CANS THE 17:34 SABBATH AND TAKES HOLD OF MY COVENANT, EVEN THEN I BRING TO 17:39 MY HOLY MOUNTAIN, WHAT IS THE WORD, JOYFUL IN MY HOUSE OF 17:44 PRAYER. THIS IS TO BE A BLESSING. 17:47 IT IS TO BE A JOY. HE SAID TO EVERYBODY, YOU KNOW, 17:48 HE SAID THAT -- THAT IT WAS TO BE THE STRANGER WITHIN YOUR 17:52 GATES, THE SERVANTS IN YOUR HOME, EVEN YOUR ANIMALS. 17:57 IT WAS MADE FOR MANKIND. THE REASON THIS SO IMPORTANT IS 18:05 BECAUSE SIMPLY, GOD IS LOVE. YOU DEVELOP A RELATIONSHIP WITH 18:14 LOVE. HE MADE TIME AND HE MADE THE 18:27 SPECI WORLD INSIX DAYS. 18:33 WHY ANOTHER DAY TO ENJOY TOGETHER. 18:38 ALL LOVE RELATIONSHIPS TAKE PLACE IN THE CONTEXT OF TIME. 18:40 SHOW ME A COUPLE THAT IS HAVING RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS AND I'LL 18:43 SHOW YOU THAT THEY'RE HAVING TIME PROBLEMS. 18:45 THEY'RE LACKING IN QUALITY TIME. THIS REMINDS ME WE'RE NOT 18:58 SPENDING ENOUGH TIME TOGETHER. WITH COVID, WE ARE NOT SPENDING 19:02 ENOUGH TIME TOGETHER. I'M HOME ALL DAY. 19:07 SHE'LL SAY YOU WERE IN THE OFFICE. 19:09 I SAY I TEXTED YOU. HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE TEXTED YOUR 19:12 SPOUSE IN THE SAME HOUSE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO RAISE YOUR 19:16 HAND. WE LIVE IN A CULTURE THAT IS THE 19:22 MOST STRESSED CULTURE IN THE WORLD. 19:25 THE FIVE LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH IN HUMANITY ARE STRESS RELATED. 19:38 I THINK IT IS TRUE THAT THE TOP FIVE MEDICATIONS THAT ARE SOLD, 19:44 SLEEP AIDES ANTI-DEPRESSANTS ARE RELATED TO STRESS. 19:48 IT IS KILLING SOCIETY. IF PEOPLE WOULD REDISCOVER WHAT 19:53 GOD DESIGNED, THEY WOULD FIND A BLESSING THAT WOULD LENGTHEN 19:56 THEIR LIFE AND QUALITY OF THEIR LIFE, AS WELL AS THE WAN I IT. 20:08 WHEN DID GOD ESTABLISH THE SABBATH. 20:10 LETH FIND OUT WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS. 20:12 BACK IN GENESIS, WHEN GOD MADE THE WORLD AND KEEP IN MIND, WHO 20:16 MADE ADAM AND EVE? ALL THINGS MADE WERE MADE BY 20:30 HIM. HE MADE MAN IN HIS IMAGE AND GOD 20:33 WOULD COME WALKING IN THE COOL OF THE DAY TO SPEND TIME WITH 20:36 MAN. BUT AFTER, THEY RAN FROM GOD AND 20:42 THERE'S A SEPARATION. GOD BLESSED THE SEVENTH DAY. 20:57 HE RESTED FROM ALL OF HIS WORK THAT GOD CREATED. 21:01 HE DIDN'T REST BECAUSE HE WAS ALL EXHAUSTED. 21:08 THE BIBLE SAYS GOD NEVER SLUMBERS OR SLEEPS. 21:11 GOD WAS REALLY RESTING BECAUSE HE WAS REVELLING IN THE 21:21 ENJOYMENT. HE STOOD BACK AND SAID 21:21 EVERYTHING IS GOOD, VERY GOOD. QUESTION THREE, WE REPEAT THE 21:30 VERSE THAT WE LOOKED AT IN GENESIS CHAPTER TWO. 21:34 I WANT TO HIGHLIGHT SOMETHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH REVELATION. 21:38 WHAT DAY CAN OF THE WEEK IS THE SABBATH ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE? 21:43 ON THE SEVENTH DAY GOD ENDED HIS WORK AND HE RESTED ON THE 21:48 SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL OF THE WORK. 21:56 HE SANCTIFIED IT. YOU FIND THE NUMBER SEVEN, 21:59 MENTIONED THREE TIMES, WHEN GOD SAYS SOMETHING THREE TIMES, IT 22:04 IS IMPORTANT LIKE WHEN ANGELS GO HOLY HOLY HOLY. 22:11 HE GOES THE SEVENTH DAY, THE SEVENTH DAY, YOU GOT A 22:16 REVELATION AND IT IS 666. MAN WAS MADE ON THE SIXTH DAY. 22:23 THE CONTRAST BETWEEN GENESIS AND REVELATION IS THE CONTRAST 22:26 BETWEEN MANMADE RELIGION AND GOD MADE RELIGION. 22:33 WORSHIP OF MAN AND GOD. THIS IS A BIG GAP BETWEEN THE 22:36 TWO OF GENESIS AND REVELATION. HOW HAS HE DEMONSTRATED THE HOLY 22:47 SABBATH. YOU LOOK AT EXODUS, IF YOU HAVE 22:49 YOUR BIBLES, MIGHT TWO HERE. I'LL READ IT HERE. 22:55 EXODUS 20 YOU FIND THE TEN COMMANDMENTS AND YOU FIND THEM 23:00 MENTIONED IN COMPLETE FORM IN DEUTERONOMY AND FIND THEM 23:05 THROUGHOUT THE BIBLE IN NEW AND OLD TESTAMENT. 23:32 IT SAYS IN THE LORD'S PRAYER HALLOWED BE THY NAME. 23:38 YOU DO FIND IT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT. 23:40 YOU FIND THE COMMANDMENTS MANY TIMES IN THE BIBLE. 23:47 HE WROTE THEM WITH MY FINGER. LOOK AT EXODUS 20. 23:53 REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY TO KEEP IT HOLY. 23:57 DO ALL OF YOUR WORK. THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH 24:01 OF THE LORD, NOT THE SABBATH OF THE JEWS. 24:05 IN IT YOU SHALL IN THE DO ANY WORK, YOU OR YOUR SON OR 24:11 DAUGHTER OR MALE SERVANT OR FEMALE SERVANT OR CATTLE OR THE 24:19 STRANGER WITHIN YOUR GATES. THE HEAVEN AND EARTH, WORSHIP 24:30 WHO MADE THE HEAVEN, SEA, EARTH. CALLING PEOPLE BACK IT WORSHIP 24:34 THE CREATOR, JUST BEFORE JESUS COMES IN THE SAME CHAPTER. 24:42 IT IS CHAPTER 14. THERE FOR THE LORD, BLESS THE 24:50 SABBATH DAY. HE DID SOMETHING DIFFERENT. 24:54 HE BLESSES THE DAY, HE RESTED THAT DAY. 25:06 HE SANCTIFIES THAT DAY. IF YOU WENT TO A MAN THAT HAD 25:12 SEVEN DAUGHTERS I LIKE TO MARRY YOUR TAUGHT, WHICH ONE? 25:17 DOESN'T MATTER. YOU WOULD SAY GET OUT OF HERE. 25:29 I HALLOWED THIS DAY AND I BLESSED THIS DAY. 25:32 THANK YOU, BUT I WANT TO PICK MY ON WAY OF DOING THINGS. 25:36 THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU YOU CALL OBEDIENCE. 25:42 THAT'S MANMADE RELIGION. PEOPLE GOT AWAY FROM WHAT GOD 25:45 SAID AND WHY HE SAID IT. YOU MAY SAY YOU'RE MAKING A BIG 25:54 DEAL OUT OF A SMALL THING. THE WHOLE WORLD IS STRUGGLING 26:01 BECAUSE GOD SAID DON'T EAT THAT FRUIT. 26:23 HE SAID I DID NOT COME TO DESTROY THE LAW. 26:27 WHOSOEVER THEREFORE SHALL BREAK ONE OF THE LEAST OF THESE 26:30 COMMANDMENTS AND TEACH THEM SO HE WILL BE CALLED LEAST IN THE 26:34 KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. WHOEVER SHALL DO AND TEACH THEM, 26:37 NOW YOU MIGHT WANT TO PASS THAT. WHY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THIS? 26:50 WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS. 26:52 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE SABBATH, IT IS ONE OF THE TEN 26:57 COMMANDMENTS. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAW, MOST 27:04 OF THE WORLD IS KNOW FNOT NEGLECTING IT. 27:07 WHOEVER BREAKS THE LEAST OF THESE COMMANDMENTS. 27:10 YOU COULD SAY WHICHEVER ONE IS THE LEAST. 27:13 THAT PERSON WILL BE CALLED LEAST BY THOSE IN HEAVEN. 27:18 IT MEANS PEOPLE IN HEAVEN REFER TO THAT PERSON AS LOWEST KIND OF 27:24 PERSON. IF YOU WERE BREAKING ONE OF 27:27 GOD'S COMMANDMENTS. SIN IS THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE 27:31 LAW TO SAVE US FROM OUR SINS. I WANT GOD IT BLESS ME. 27:44 SAME WILL BE GREAT, THOSE THAT DO AND TEACH IT. 27:48 OF WHAT TWO PRECIOUS THINGS THAT GOD SAYS THE SABBATH IS A SIGN. 27:56 HE SAYS IT IS A SIGN BETWEEN ME AND THE CHILDREN THAT GOD MADE 28:07 HEAVEN AND EARTH. HE'S THE CREATOR AND HE COULD 28:11 RECREATE US. BEING SAVED, THE BIBLE CREATES 28:24 GOD CREATES US. WE WANT TO BE IN HIS IMAGE. 28:29 THIS IS EZEKIEL. I GAVE THEM MY SABBATH TO BE A 28:32 SIGN BETWEEN ME AND THEM THAT THEY MAY KNOW I'M THE LORD THAT 28:37 SANGITY GUYS THEM. THAT'S TELLING US THAT HE'S A 28:41 GOD THAT MAKES US HOLY. WE NEED GOD TO SANGITY GUY US. 28:44 HE SAID IT IS A SIGN. YOU KNOW. 28:52 GOD HAS A SPECIAL SIGN THAT HE GIVES HIS PEOPLE. 28:55 BIND UP THE TESTIMONY. SEAL THE LAW AMONG MY DISCIPLES. 29:03 HEAL TH LAW. NOW A QUESTION IS ULTIMATELY A 29:10 FATHER OF JESUS. THE REVELATION IS REVELATION OF 29:14 JESUS. LET'S LOOK AT TEACHING ON THIS 29:17 SUBJECT. WHAT DAY DID JESUS KEEP HOLY? 29:20 HE CAME TO NAZARETH AND ASKED HIS CUSTOM, CUSTOM IS NOT 29:25 SOMETHING YOU TO ONCE OR TWICE. HE WENT INTO THE SABBATH AND IN 29:29 THE SYNAGOGUE ON THE SABBATH DAY AND STOOD UP. 29:34 JESUS, PATTERN, THIS CUSTOM, HIS BEHAVIOR ALL THROUGH HIS LIFE, 29:38 HE WOULD GO TO THE SYNAGOGUE THAT WAS THE GATHERING WHERE 29:42 THEY WORSHIP GOD AND HE WOULD READ THE SCRIPTURES. 29:46 IT WAS A COMMON PRACTICE FOR HIM. 29:50 THIS IS AN IF EXAMPLE FOR US. GOD HAS A WAY FOR US TO REST 29:55 FROM REGULAR WORK. WE TALK ABOUT RESTING, THAT 29:59 DOESN'T MEAN YOU STAY IN BET. THIS IS A WAY TO WORSHIP GOD. 30:12 I'M CALLING IT CONVOCATION, THAT MEANS ASSEMBLY. 30:16 YOU COME TOGETHER. HE WANTS HIS PEOPLE TO COME 30:19 TOGETHER AND WORSHIP HIM. DO NOT FORSAKE THE ASSEMBLY. 30:32 THEY COME TOGETHER, THEY COULD DO IT ANYTIME, BUT PRINCIPAL 30:37 TIME WAS THE SABBATH. IT IS OKAY TO HEAL. 30:44 PEOPLE HEAL ON THE SABBATH DAY. YOU NEVER FIND JESUS IN THE 30:49 CARPENTER SHOP. THAT WOULD BE COMMON WORK AND 30:51 YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT WORK. 31:02 WHAT ABOUT PAUL. PAUL AS MY CUSTOM WAS. 31:10 HE WENT INTO THEM AND THREE SABBATH DAYS HE REASONED OUT OF 31:12 THE SCRIPTURES. HE'S TALKING ABOUT THE 31:14 SYNAGOGUE. THAT MAKES SENSE HE'S TALKING TO 31:16 THE JEWS. HE REASONED EVERY SABBATH DAY, 31:27 HE PERSUADED JEWS AND GREEKS. DID HE MEET WITH GENT TILES ON 31:32 THE SABBATH? YES. 31:35 WHEN THE JEWS WERE OUT OF THE SYNAGOGUE, THIS MIGHT BE 31:41 PREACHED TO THEM. THROUGH THE BIBLE, THE APOSTLES 31:45 CONTINUED IT PREACH, WORSHIP ON THE SABBATH DAY. 31:48 ON THE SABBATH DAY, WE WENT TO A RIVER WHERE PRAYER WAS MADE. 32:07 THERE WAS CONTENTION. THE CONTENTIOUS NEVER HAD TO DO 32:10 WITH SHOULD WE KEEP THE SABBATH. IT WAS ALWAYS REGARDING HOW 32:15 SHOULD WE KEEP THE SABBATH? HE SAID I KEPT MY FATHER'S 32:25 COMMANDMENTS. DID JESUS INTEND FOR HIS PEOPLE 32:30 TO KEEP THE SABBATH AFTER HE TIDE? 32:31 YOU TELL WHEN JESUS IS TALKING ABOUT THE END OF THE WORLD IN 32:35 MATTHEW 24. HE SAID THEY SHOULD PRAY THAT 32:38 THEIR FLIGHT, NOT TALKING ABOUT FLIGHT ON DELTA, ABOUT FLEEING 32:47 FOR YOUR LIFE THAT IT WOULDN'T BE IN THE WINTER. 32:50 YOU COULD FORGE AND THE SABBATH IS CERTAINLY ONE OF THE -- IN 32:55 KEEPING WITH THE REST, IF YOU GOT TO RUN FOR YOUR LIFE. 32:59 WE EVEN SHOULD PRAY AHEAD OF TIME FOR THAT THAT WE DON'T HAVE 33:02 TO FLEA. SO LOOKING, JESUS ALWAYS SAID IT 33:06 WOULD BE PART OF GOD'S PLAN. NOW GOING BACK TO REVELATION, I 33:09 WANT TO REMIND YOU, THIS IS WHERE WE STARTED. 33:12 I SAW ANOTHER ANGEL FLYING IN THE MIDst OF HEAVEN AND HAVING 33:16 THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL TO TEACH TO THOSE ON EARTH. 33:20 WHAT DID JESUS SAY ABOUT THAT? VERSE 14. 33:33 THE GOSPEL WILL BE TEACHED IN ALL OF THE WORLD, TO WITNESS ALL 33:34 NATIONS AND THEN THE END WILL COME. 33:35 THEN THE END SHALL COME. DOESN'T SAY IT MIGHT. 33:43 WE HAVE THESE ANGELS IN HEAVEN. I THINK NOW THIS SIGNAL IS GOING 33:47 FROM INTERNET TO A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT SATELLITES, GOING UP 33:51 TO THE SKY, 23,000 MILES ABOVE THE EARTH, YOU'RE -- THERE'S 33:55 MANY SATELLITES CIRCLING IN WHAT YOU CALL GEOCENTRIC ORBIT AND 34:00 THEY'RE STATIONY AND THERE'S ANGELS. 34:04 THEY GOT SOLAR PANELS THAT GIVE THEM POWER AND THEY'RE BOUNCING 34:08 THE MESSAGE OFF THAT YOU ARE SATELLITES AND IT IS GOING 34:19 AROUND THE WORLD. NOT LIKE THESE ANGELS ARE 34:23 SATELLITES BUT IT IS SOMETHING. GOSPEL GOES TO THE WORLD. 34:28 THE ANGEL IN THE HEAVENS, HEAVENS ARE PLACES OF 34:31 VISIBILITY, PART OF THIS MESSAGE IS WHAT? 34:34 DEAR GOD AND GIVE GLORY TO HIM FOR THE HOUR OF HIS JUDGMENT HAS 34:42 COME WORSHIP HIM WHO MADE THE SPRINGS OF THE WATER. 34:47 THAT'S THE EXCERPT FROM THE SABBATH COMMANDMENT AND THE 34:54 FOUNTAINS OF WATER. THIS IS THE MESSAGE FROM THE 34:59 WORLD. I GOT TO PAUSE. 35:01 I GET EXCITED. I FORGET HOW I FELT WHEN I FIRST 35:05 LEARNED THESE THINGS, I WAS SHOCKED. 35:07 I MEAN, YOU THINK I WOULD KNOW BETTER BECAUSE I GREW UP WITH A 35:10 JEWISH BACKGROUND BUT WHEN I READ THE BIBLE AND I'LL TELL YOU 35:13 MY STORY TOMORROW MORNING, IF YOU'RE ABLE TO JOIN US. 35:18 I READ THE BIBLE AND I ACCEPTED JESUS AND I STARTED GOING TO 35:20 CHURCH AND -- AND -- AND I WENT ON SUNDAY BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN 35:25 ALL OF THE CHRISTIANS WENT TO CHURCH. 35:32 I THOUGHT WELL, I READ THE BIBLE, THE SEVENTH DAY, 35:36 SATURDAY. I'M GOING HOW CAN THAT BE? 35:39 I WENT TO SEVERAL PASSES AND SAID, WHY ARE WE GOING ON 35:43 SUNDAY? IT SEEMED LIKE EVERY PASTOR GAE 35:46 ME A DIFFERENT ANSWER. ONE PASTOR SAID, THE REASON WE 35:52 GO ON SUNDAY IS BECAUSE THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK WAS 36:00 RESURRECTION. HE SAID KEEP THE SEVENTH DAY. 36:04 I WENT TO ANOTHER PASTOR, HE SAID DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE 36:11 SABBATH, WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. 36:13 CAN WE BREAK THE OTHER NINE? NO. 36:17 I WAS DOING A SEMINAR LIKE THIS WITH A LIVE AUDIENCE.-I PRESENTED THE SUBJECT AND 36:24 THERE WAS ANOTHER PASTOR THERE AND HE INTERRUPTED. 36:26 IT WAS A SMALLER COMMUNITY, SO I THINK HE FELT AT LIBERTY. 36:30 BROTHER DOUG, YOU'RE PUTTING THESE PEOPLE UNDER THE BOND AN 36:34 OF THE LAW. I SAID PARDON ME? 36:38 YOU'RE TELLING THEM THEY HAVE TO KEEP THE SABBATH COMMANDMENT AND 36:42 THAT KEEPS THEM UNDER BONDAGE OF THE LAW. 36:48 I SAID YOU'RE TELLING THEM. I SAID DO YOU THINK WE NEED TO 36:58 KEEP THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. HE SAID NO. 37:01 THEN HE SAID YES. HE THOUGHT THAT WOULD MEAN, IT 37:04 IS A PACKAGE DEAL. NINE OF THEM. 37:09 I SAID, YOU'RE TELLING ME THEN THE ONE COMMANDMENT WE'RE 37:13 SUPPOSED TO WORK IS THE COMMANDMENT THAT BEGINS WITH THE 37:16 WORD REMEMBER. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. 37:20 I REMEMBER HOW SHOCKED I WAS WHEN I HEARD THESE THINGS. 37:22 I THOUGHT HOW CAN SO MANY PEOPLE BE WRONG. 37:26 SO MANY RELIGIOUS LEADERS BE MISSING THIS. 37:29 I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE IN HEAVEN THAT AT 37:35 ANY TIME KNOW THIS. I'M NOT QUESTIONING PEOPLE'S 37:38 RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD. THE GREATER PART OF THE 37:40 CHRISTIAN WORLD MAYBE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THIS TRUTH. 37:42 IT IS IN THE BIBLE AND GOD IS CALLING US BACK TO HIS WORD IN 37:45 THE LAST DAYS. SO, I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT 37:48 CLEAR AND I HOPE I'M BEING GRACIOUS. 37:51 I'M SO EXCITED ABOUT IT. I THINK I MAY BLOW PEOPLE AWAY 37:56 AS I'M SHARING THIS SUBJECT. THE REASON I DON'T APOLOGIZE IS 38:00 BECAUSE IT IS ONE OF GOD'S COMMANDM 38:23 COMMANDMENTS. KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. 38:46 IF YOU'RE EVER IN DOUBT ABOUT WHAT TO DO, DO WHAT MAKES THE 38:50 DEVIL MAD AND YOU'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING. 38:53 I KNOW IN JUDGMENT DAY, I WILL HAVE NO PROBLEM STANDING BEFORE 38:57 THE LORD AND SAY, WHY DID YOU KEEP THAT COMMANDMENT? 39:01 I SAID, WELL YOU SPOKE IT WITH YOUR VOICE. 39:04 YOU WROTE IT WITH YOUR FINGER. YOU WROTE IT IN STONE TO 39:10 INDICATE ITS UNCHANGING NATURE. IF THERE'S ANYTHING THAT GOD 39:14 COULD DO TO EMPHASIZE THIS FOREVER, I WOULD THINK THAT 39:17 WOULD BE IT. I'M VERY CONFIDENT THAT A 39:21 CHRISTIAN SHOULDN'T APOLOGIZE FOR BELIEVING IN ALL TEN 39:27 COMMANDMENTS. IT IS NOT THE TEN 39:28 RECOMMENDATIONS. GOD IS NOT GIVING US OPTIONAL 39:31 CHOICE. THIS IS HIS LAW. 39:33 THIS IS HIS WILL. YOU WILL BE BLESSED IF YOU OBEY. 39:36 THE DEVIL ALL THROUGH THESE EXAMPLES AND PROPHECIES TRIES TO 39:42 GET GOD'S PEOPLE TO SIN. HE SEPARATES THEM FROM GOD BY 39:46 THEIR SINS. THROUGH COMING TO JESUS WE 39:49 RECONCILED GOD THROUGH HIS FORGIVENESS. 39:53 THAT'S CALLED JUSTIFICATION AND THEN HE WANTS US TO OBEY HIM AND 39:56 THAT'S WHAT SANCTIFICATION IS. HERE IS THE PATIENCE OF THE 40:02 SAINTS. IT CONTRASTS ONE GROUP THAT HAS 40:05 THE SEAL OF GOD. THE OTHER ONE HAS MARKET OF THE 40:09 BEAST. HERE'S THE PATIENTNESS OF THE 40:12 SAINTS. HERE ARE THEY THAT KEEP THE 40:14 COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. EVERYBODY KEEPS SOME 40:19 COMMANDMENTS SOME OF THE TIME. BEFORE I WAS A CHRISTIAN I WAS 40:21 IN JAIL A FEW TIMES AND NOT VISITING. 40:24 EVERYBODY I MET IN JAIL KEEPS SOME OF THE COMMANDMENTS SOME OF 40:31 THE TIME. LOOKING FOR PEOPLE THAT KEEPS 40:33 SOME OF THEM. GOD SAYS, OH, THAT THERE WAS 40:38 SUCH A HEART IN THEM. THERE WAS SUCH A HEART IN THEM 40:41 THAT THEY WOULD FEAR ME AND KEEP ALL OF MY COMMANDMENTS ALWAYS 40:46 THAT IT MIGHT BE WELL WITHIN THEM AND THEIR CHILDREN. 40:53 GOD WANTS IT TO BE WELL WITH US BECAUSE HE LOVES US. 40:56 WHEN THE CHILDREN OBEY, YOU HAVE THEIR INTERESTS IN MIND. 41:00 GOD DIDN'T CURSE THE DAY, HE BLESSED THE DAY. 41:03 WE'RE MISSING THAT. BLESSED ARE THOSE THAT DO THE 41:06 COMMANDMENTS THAT THEY MAY HAVE A RIGHT TO THE TREE OF LIFE AND 41:10 ENTER IN THROUGH THE GATES OF THE CITY. 41:12 THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE WITH GOD. 41:17 QUESTION 11, WILL ALL OF THE SAINTS BE KEEPING THE SABBATH IN 41:28 HEAVEN? YES. 41:28 FOR AS THE NEW HEAVENS AND NEW EARTH, SO SHALL YOUR FEED AND 41:32 NAME REMAIN. IT WILL COME TO PASS THAT FROM 41:35 ONE -- ONE TO ANOTHER AND FROM ONE SABBATH TO ANOTHER SHALL ALL 41:41 FLESH, DOES IT SAY ALL JEWS? ALL PEOPLE, WHOLE CREATION, 41:46 GATHER TO WORSHIP BEFORE ME. THAT'S ANOTHER EXAMPLE TO GATHER 41:53 TOGETHER. HE COULD KEEP IT IN HEAVEN. 41:55 THINK OF THIS. WE SHOWED YOU IT WAS THERE IN 41:57 THE GARDEN OF EDEN WITH ADAM AND EVE. 42:01 MOSES AND PART OF THE COMMANDMENTS WE SEE JESUS AND 42:04 THE APOSTLES ARE KEEPING THE SABBATH THROUGH THE NEW 42:08 TESTAMENT. AND THE VISION OF REVELATION IS 42:12 GIVEN TO JOHN AND I WAS IN THE SPIRIT ON THE LORD'S DAY. 42:18 WE'RE GOING TO KEEP IT IN HEAVEN, RIGHT? 42:22 SO THE QUESTION IS SHOULD WE BE KEEPING IT NOW? 42:25 I WOULD THINK SO, FRIENDS. CAN WE BE CERTAIN THAT THE 42:29 PRESENT DAY, SEVENTH DAY OF THE WEEK, SATURDAY IS THE SAME 42:33 SABBATH DAY THAT JESUS KEPT HOLY. 42:35 NO QUESTION ABOUT THAT. YOU LOOK IN THE BIBLE, LUKE 23 42:42 VERSUS 24 AND THAT DAY THE CRUCIFIXION DAY WAS THE 42:45 PREPARATION, THE SIXTH DAY OF THE WEEK WAS THE DAY THEY WOULD 42:48 PREPARE FOR THE SABBATH. THE SABBATH DREW ON AND THE SUN 42:52 WAS GETTING READY TO GO DOWN. THEY PREPARED SPICES AND 42:56 OINTMENTS FOR HIS BODY AND THEY RESTED THE SABBATH DAY ACCORDING 43:00 TO THE COMMANDMENTS. THIS WOULD BE A GOOD PLACE FOR 43:03 LUKE TO SAY THEY RESTED THE SABBATH ACCORDING TO THE JEWISH 43:07 CUSTOM. THEY SAY THE COMMANDMENTS, CLEAR 43:13 OF GOD, AND THEY CAME TO THE SPETALUR. 43:22 THEY LOVED THE LORD SO MUCH THEY WOULDN'T EVEN FINISH THE LABOR 43:27 OF LOVE EM BALMING HIS BODY BECAUSE THE SUN WAS GOING DOWN 43:31 AND THE SABBATH WAS COMING AND THEY KNEW THAT WOULD DISPLEASE 43:40 JESUS. HE IMPRESSED THEM IT WAS SO 43:44 IMPORTANT TO THEM THEY WOULDN'T FINISH THE LABOR OF LOVE OF EM 43:48 BALMING HIS BODY UNTIL AFTER THE SABBATH PASSED. 43:53 THE ANGELS HAD SAID, HE'S RISEN. THE PREPARATION DAY WAS FRIDAY, 43:57 MANY CALL THAT GOOD FRIDAY. THE SABBATH WAS THE DAY IN 44:01 BETWEEN, SATURDAY. AND THEN YOU'VE GOT SUNDAY. 44:09 HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED FRIENDS THAT JESUS LAID DOWN HIS LIFE 44:13 FOR US. HE WENT TO SLEEP AND RESTED IN 44:17 THE TOMB AND HE EVEN KEPT THE SABBATH IN HIS DEATH AND HE ROSE 44:21 SUNDAY MORNING TO CONTINUE WORK FOR US AS THE INTERSESSION. 44:28 HE KEPT THE SABBATH IN HIS DEATH. 44:32 IF YOU LOOK AT DICTIONARY, SATURDAY, SEVENTH DAY, SATURDAY. 44:37 IN OVER 105 LANGUAGES OF THE WORLD, MORE THAN THAT, THE WORD 44:41 FOR THE SEVENTH DAY OF THE WEEK IS SABBATH DAY. 44:45 I SUSPECT SOME OF YOU HERE IN THE STUDIO AUDIENCE SPEAK 44:51 SPANISH, SATURDAY. ANY RUSSIANS HERE. 44:55 YOU COULD GO THROUGH 105 LANGUAGES, WHY IS THAT? 45:00 BECAUSE ALL OF THE PEOPLE FROM THE WORLD SPRANG FROM A COMMON 45:04 CULTURE THAT THEY HAD A SEVEN-DAY BOOK. 45:06 WHY IS IT HERE WE ARE IN A WORLD, IT MAKES SENSE THAT THE 45:10 REASON WE GOT A DAY WITH 24 HOURS, IT TAKES 24 HOURS FOR THE 45:20 EARTH TO REVOLVE ONE TIME. CIVILIZATIONS HAD A MONTH WITH 45:25 ABOUT 27 DAYS BECAUSE THAT'S THE LUNAR CYCLE. 45:30 IT MAKES SENSE THAT MOST CIVILIZATIONS HAD A YEAR WITH 45:34 360, 365 DAYS BECAUSE THAT'S HOW LONG IT TAKES FOR THE EARTH TO 45:37 MAKE A CIRCUIT AROUND THE SUN. THIS IS HEAVENLY BODIES THAT 45:41 DICTATE THIS. WHAT IN THE SUN, MOON, STARS 45:45 GIVE IT A SEVEN-DAY WEEK. IT IS IN THE BIBLE. 45:48 AND SIX DAYS GOD MADE THE WORLD AND RESTED THE SEVENTH DAY. 45:52 THE WHOLE WORLD HAS THE TIME GOVERNED BY THIS. 45:55 SOME CIVILIZATIONS TRIED TO CHANGE IT AND IT FAILED 46:00 MISERABLY. SOME WILL SAY PASS TO DOUG, WE 46:02 DON'T KNOW THE SABBATH BECAUSE THEY CHANGED IT. 46:06 WELL IT IS TRUE THEY CHANGED THE CALENDAR A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT 46:09 NO CHANGE THAT EFFECTED THE WEEKLY CYCLE. 46:13 SOMEONE WROTE A LETTER TO THE NAVAL OBSERVATORY ASKING IF 46:15 THERE WAS ANY CHANGE IN THE CALENDAR THAT EFFECTED THE 46:18 WEEKLY CYCLE? THEY RESPONDED BACK. 46:21 THERE'S NO CHANGE IN THE CONTINUITY OF THE WEEKLY CYCLE 46:26 SINCE LONG BEFORE THE CHRISTIAN ERA. 46:27 AND WAS THERE A CHANGE IN THE CALENDAR? 46:31 YES. I BELIEVE IT WAS POPE GREGORY, 46:35 HE WENT FROM THE JULIAN CALENDAR, NAMED AFTER JULIUS 46:39 CAESAR TO THE GREGORIAN CALENDAR AND IN 1582 THEY ADDED TEN DAYS 46:45 AND YOU WENT FROM OCTOBER 5, THURSDAY, TO FRIDAY OCTOBER 46:51 15th. DID THE CALENDAR CHANGE? 46:54 YES. DID THE WEEK CHANGE? 46:57 NO. PEOPLE GET CONFUSED BECAUSE THE 46:59 CALENDAR AND THE WEEK ARE ON THE SAME PIECE OF PAPER, THEY THINK 47:02 ONE EFFECTS THE OTHER. THEY'RE TWO COMPLETELY SEPARATE 47:04 INDEPENDENT CYCLES OF TIME. THAT'S WHY YOUR BIRTHDAY IS ON A 47:08 DIFFERENT DAY OF THE WEEK EACH YEAR. 47:10 THEY OPERATE SEPARATELY. ONE IS A DATE, ONE IS A DAY. 47:15 DOES GOD ALLOW ANYONE TO CHANGE HIS HOLY DAY? 47:22 PROVERBS 30, FIVE AND SIX, NOT UNTO HIS WORD LESS HE APPROVE 47:34 THEY AND NOW A LIAR. THEY WOULD THINK TO CHANGE THE 47:38 LAW. WHICH OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS IS 47:39 THE TIME AND THE LAW. THERE'S ONLY ONE. 47:42 AND FRIENDS, THE PURPOSE OF THE PLAN OF SALVATION IS GOD IS HOLY 47:48 AND HEAVEN IS HOLY. HE'S CALLING US TO BE HOLY. 47:51 BE HOLY EVEN AS I'M HOLY. HE BLESSED THE SABBATH AND MADE 47:55 IT HOLY. THINK ABOUT THIS. 47:56 THERE'S A PLACE ON THE GLOBE THAT IS CALLED THE HOLY LAND. 47:59 WHAT PLACE ARE WE THINKING OF? ISRAEL. 48:03 IF YOU'RE IN THE THERE, WONDERFUL TRIP, INSPIRING. 48:06 IN THE HOLY LAND, THEY GOT A PLACE CALLED THE HOLY CITY. 48:12 WHERE IS THAT? JERUSALEM. 48:13 ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, THEY SAY JERUSALEM. 48:16 IN THE HOLY CITY, THEY GOT THE HOLY MOUNT. 48:21 AND ON THE HOLY MOUNTAIN, THEY HAVE THE HOLY TEMPLE AND IN THE 48:25 HOLY TEMPLE THEY HAVE THE HOLY PLACE. 48:27 BEYOND THE HOLY PLACE THEY HAVE THE HOLIES OF HOLIES AND THEN 48:35 THERE WAS THE HOLY LAW, AND WRITTEN BY GOD WITH HIS FINGER. 48:41 YOU FIND THE WORD HOLY ONE TIME. ACTUALLY TWO TIMES BUT THEY'RE 48:45 BOTH ON THE SABBATH. ONE THAT SAYS HOLY IS NOT JUST 48:49 HALLOWED. THE PLACE WHERE YOU FIND THE 48:52 WORD HOLY IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAW AND THE LONGEST OF THE 48:56 COMMANDMENTS AND THE ONLY COMMANDMENT THAT BEGINS WITH THE 49:00 WORD REMEMBER AND THE COMMANDMENT MUCH OF THE 49:04 CHRISTIAN WORLD ARE MISSING. WE'RE WORKING OURSELVES TO 49:07 DEATH. THE PHARAOH TRIED TO KILL US OFF 49:09 BY MAKING BRICKS WITHOUT STRAW. GOD WANTS HIS PEOPLE TO 49:14 REDISCOVER THE BLESSINGS OF THE SABBATH. 49:15 I KNOW WHEN YOU HEAR THIS, YOU'RE SAYING PASS TO DOUG. 49:18 MY JOB, I WORK SEVEN DAYS A WEEK. 49:21 YOU FIRST MAKE UP YOUR MIND AND SAY IS THIS TRUE? 49:24 AND IF IT IS TRUE, WILL GOD EVER ASK YOU TO DO SOMETHING WITHOUT 49:28 HELPING YOU DO IT. AND GOD, HE'LL HELP YOU DO WHAT 49:32 HE WANTS YOU TO DO. YOU LAY IT BEFORE HIM. 49:34 I'M YOURS, HOW DO I DO THIS? HE'LL GUIDE YOU AND HIGH SCHOOL 49:39 MOVE MOUNTAINS AND PART OCEANS, YOU FOLLOW THE LORD, HE'LL BLESS 49:43 YOU FOR TAKING A STAND. KEEP IN MIND, PEOPLE WILL SAY I 49:47 CAN'T KEEP THE SABBATH, I'LL LOSE MY JOB. 49:50 AND THEY WOULD NOT BOW DOWN TO THE GOLDEN IMAGE AND THEY WERE 49:53 AT RISK OF NOT ONLY LOSING THEIR JOBS, THIS WERE GOING TO LOSE 49:57 THEIR HEALTH INSURANCE AND THEIR LIVES, BUT THEY DECIDED THE 50:02 COMMANDMENTS OF GOD ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE COMMANDMENTS 50:06 OF MAN. GOD, JESUS SAID YOU GOT TO SEEK 50:14 RIGHTEOUSNESS. GOD HAS PRIORITY IN OUR LIFE. 50:19 YOU READ IN HEBREW, IT SAYS WHETHER REMAINS THEREFORE A REST 50:22 FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD. THE WORD REST THERE IS 50:26 [INDISCERNIBLE]. THIS IS THE NEW TESTAMENT. 50:27 YOU CAN FIND THE SABBATH BEING KEPT BY GOD'S PEOPLE ALL THE WAY 50:31 THROUGH THE NEW TESTAMENT. ONE REASON I KNOW IT WASN'T 50:34 CHANGED AND CAN'T CHANGE GOD'S LAW IS BECAUSE THE SABBATH WAS 50:39 SUCH A BIG PART OF THE NATION OF ISRAEL, EVERY WEEK, THAT FOR GOD 50:44 TO CHANGE THAT WITHOUT THERE BEING AN ENORMOUS ADVERTISEMENT 50:50 IN THE NEW TESTAMENT IS REALLY ABSURD, SELF-EVIDENT TRUTH. 50:54 FOR EXAMPLE, TALKING TO A GROUP HERE IN SACRAMENTO, THORN 50:59 CALIFORNIA, IF I WERE TO TELL YOU, DID YOU KNOW THAT THE 51:01 GOVERNMENT JUST CHANGED THE LAW YESTERDAY. 51:05 YOU MAY NOT HAVE NOTICED, THINGS HAPPEN WHEN YOU'RE IN THE 51:07 LOOKING, ESPECIALLY THESE DAYS. THEY DECIDED WE'RE NOT GOING TO 51:11 FOLLOW ENGLAND WITH OUR DRIVING PATTERNS, WE'RE GOING TO SWITCH 51:14 AND DRIVE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. 51:17 HOW MANY OF YOU BELIEVE ME? YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE ME. 51:22 IF THE GOVERNMENT WERE TO CHANGE THAT THEY WOULD ADVERTISE THAT 51:25 THOROUGHLY BECAUSE IT WOULD BE CHAOS AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD 51:28 DIE IF THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT. IF GOD WAS GOING TO CHANGE ONE 51:32 OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, YOU WOULD SEE IT DISCUSSED ALL 51:36 THROUGH THE NEW TESTAMENT. YOU KNOW, YOU SEE WHAT THE 51:39 ARGUMENT IS ABOUT. IT IS ABOUT THINGS LIKE 51:48 CIRCUMCISION AND THE CEREMONIAL LAWS. 51:49 THEY WERE SHOCKED THAT THE NEW TESTAMENT OF CHRISTIANS WERE NOT 51:50 REQUIRED TO FOLLOW THOSE THINGS. WHEN DOES THE SABBATH BEGIN AND 51:57 END ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE? FROM EVEN UNTO EVEN SHALL YOU 52:01 CELEBRATE THE SABBATH. THEY DO NOT BEGIN AND END LIKE 52:05 MIDNIGHT. I THINK WE GOT DAYLIGHT'S 52:07 SAVINGS TIME IN TWO TO JESUS BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT 52:31 THEY DIDN'T WANT TO HEAL HIM ON THE SABBATH, THEY KNEW IT ENDED 52:35 AND BEGAN AT SUNDOWN. THERE'S NO QUESTION WHAT DAY 52:38 THAT IS IT IS STILL SATURDAY THE SEVENTH 52:41 DAY OF THE WEEK. SOMEONE MAY THINK, PASTOR DOUG, 52:44 HOW TO WE KNOW THERE'S IN THE BEEN A CHANGE. 52:47 NOT ONLY HAS THE CALENDAR NOT CHANGED, NOT ONLY DO WE KNOW 52:51 THAT -- THAT -- THAT IT IS INTERESTING PEOPLE NEVER HAVE 52:54 PROBLEM WITH THE DAYS OF THE WEEK. 52:56 THEY NEVER HAVE TROUBLE KNOWING WHEN THE DAY IS SUNDAY. 53:00 THEY ALWAYS CELEBRATE EASTER SUNDAY. 53:02 THERE'S NO QUESTION ABOUT THE DAY. 53:05 BUT WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT SABBATH THEY GET FUZZY. 53:12 THERE WAS A JEWISH MAN OR FAMILY THAT GOT SHIPWRECKED AND LOST 53:15 TRACK OF TIME AND DIDN'T KNOW THE DAY. 53:20 THE IDEA THAT A WHOLE NATION WOULD FORGET THE HOLY DAY ALL AT 53:27 ONE TIME IS UNLIKELY. THIS IS WHAT THE CHRISTIANS KEPT 53:30 UNTIL 250 YEARS AFTER CHRIST. THE MUSLIMS KNOW WHAT DAY FRIDAY 53:34 IS AND EVERYBODY THAT CELEBRATES EASTER ON SUNDAY, THEY THAT 53:41 SUNDAY IS THE FIRST DAY. WHAT DAY IS THE LORD'S DAY IN 53:44 REVELATION 110? THE VISION OF REVELATION WAS 53:47 GIVEN TO JOHN. HE WOULD NOT WORK. 53:50 THE ROMANS HAD HIM IN PRISON AND HISTORY TELLS US THEY HAD MINES 53:56 WHERE THEY MAKE THE SLAVES WORK. JOHN WOULD NOT WORK ON THE 54:00 SABBATH DAY. HE PROBABLY HAD THE VISION ON 54:03 THE LORD'S DAY, WHAT IS THE LORD'S DAY. 54:06 LET'S LET THE BIBLE TELL US. BUT THE SEVENTH DAY, EXODUS 2010 54:10 IS THE SABBATH OF THE LORD. THAT'S THE LORD'S DAY. 54:16 IF YOU TURN AWAY YOUR FOOT FROM SATURDAY AND FROM DOING YOUR 54:20 PLEASURE ON MY HOLY DAY. THE SABBATH IS HIS WHOLE HOLY 54:26 DAY. AND THE SON OF MAN IS THE 54:28 SABBATH DAY. AND I CHALLENGE YOU, SEND IN A 54:33 QUESTION. ONE EXAMPLE IN THE BIBLE WHERE 54:36 GOD COMMANDS US TO KEEP THE FIRST DAY HOLY. 54:39 I'LL READ IT TO EVERYBODY BUT I'M IN THE WAITING FOR YOUR 54:42 E-MAIL BECAUSE THERE'S NO COMMANDMENT. 54:45 THIS IS TRADITION. I KNOW THERE ARE SPIRIT FILLED, 54:49 GOD LOVING CHRISTIANS OUT THERE THAT MAYBE DIDN'T KNOW THIS 54:53 BEFORE. BUT THIS IS IMPORTANT TRUTH I 54:55 THINK HE WANTS US TO ALL KNOW. I DON'T HAVE TIME TO COVER 54:58 EVERYTHING. THERE'S A WEBSITE I WANT YOU TO 55:01 JOT DOWN. A LOT MORE INFORMATION TO ANSWER 55:03 YOUR QUESTIONS. IT IS DISCOVER THE SABBATH TRUTH 55:06 IS CALLED SABBATH TRUTH.com. MAKE A NOTE. 55:13 IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS, IT ANSWERS THEM. 55:16 GREAT WEBSITE, SABBATH TRUTH.com. 55:19 GO THERE. QUESTION NUMBER 16. 55:24 WHAT BLESSING IS PROMISED BY THE SABBATH COMMANDMENT. 55:27 JESUS SAID COME UNTO ME ALL YOU WHO LABOR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN 55:35 AND I'LL GIVE YOU REST. HE WANTS US TO HAVE PEACE AND 55:41 REST. IF THEY ENTER INTO MY REST, MY 55:44 PRESENCE WILL GO WITH YOU AND I'LL GIVE YOU REST. 55:46 THE LORD PROMISES HE WILL BE WITH US IN THIS JUOURNEY. 55:54 GOD WENT WITH THEM IN THE PILLAR OF FIRE. 55:57 AND CHRIST SAID MY BURDEN IS EASY, I WANT TO GIVE YOU REST 56:00 FOR YOUR SOULS. PART OF THE SABBATH IS WHEN YOU 56:03 SURRENDER YOURSELF TO THE WORLD, HE GIVES YOU PEACE IN YOUR 56:09 HEART. I WON'T LIVE A LIFE OF SIN. 56:13 I WILL NOT OBEY YOU. JESUS SAYS IF YOU KNOW THESE 56:18 THINGS, HAPPY ARE YOU THAT DO THEM. 56:21 IT DOESN'T SAY LORD LORD WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM, BUT THOSE 56:24 THAT TO, THE WILL OF MY FATHER IN HEAVEN. 56:29 I'M TEACHING YOU FROM THE WORD OF GOD. 56:31 I HOPE YOU WILL NOT LOOK AROUND YOU. 56:36 YOU PROBABLY THINK OF LEADERS BEING WRONG. 56:41 THAT'S THE SAME THING ABOUT APOSTLES. 56:44 IF JESUS IS MESSIAH, THE PRIEST WILL ANNOUNCE IT. 56:48 MOSES SAID DO NOT FOLLOW A MULTITUDE TO DO THE WRONG THING 56:52 TO DO EVIL. YOU FOLLOW WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS 56:55 AND YOU'LL NEVER BE SORRY. BEFORE WE CLOSE OUT THIS 56:58 PRESENTATION WITH PRAYER, DON'T GO AWAY, WE'LL HAVE QUESTIONS IN 57:01 A MOMENT, I WANT TO GIVE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO RESPOND TO WHAT 57:04 WE TALKED ABOUT. IF YOU'RE IN A GROUP OR CHURCH 57:07 GROUP, THEY GOT DECISION CARD FOR YOU. 57:09 WE WANT TO KNOW HOW TO PRAY FOR YOU. 57:12 THOSE WHO ARE WATCHING ON TELEVISION OR SATELLITE, WHEN WE 57:15 GO TO THE BREAK IN JUST A MOMENT, YOU COULD GO TO 57:19 REVELATION.com WEBSITE AND THERE WILL BE A CARD THERE FOR YOU TO 57:22 FILL OUT. THE QUESTIONS ON THE CARD 57:25 BASICALLY ARE TALKING ABOUT -- ABOUT WHAT WE HEARD TONIGHT, IF 57:29 IT MAKES SENSE. BEST TIME TO TAKE A STANCE FOR 57:31 THE TRUTH IS WHEN YOU HEAR IT AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WORKING 57:35 IN YOUR HEART. I WANT TO ASK YOU FOUR SIMPLE 57:38 QUESTIONS. FIRST, DO YOU DESIRE TO HAVE 57:41 GOD'S LAW WRITTEN ON YOUR HEART THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE THE SEAL OF 57:45 GOD ON THE LAST DAY. CHECK THAT AND PUT YOUR NAME, 57:47 PHONE NUMBER ON THE CARD FOR YOUR GROUP. 57:53 SECOND QUESTION, I CHOOSE TO KEEP THE SEVENTH DAY, SABBATH 57:56 AND TO WORSHIP MY CREATOR. YOU WANT THAT BLESSING? 57:59 IT IS THE RIGHT THING. I WANT TO DO THAT. 58:03 THIRD QUESTION. I CHOOSE TO BE AMONG THE SAINTS 58:06 THAT LOVE JESUS AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS. 58:08 YOU WANT TO BE IN THE GROUP IN THE LAST DAYS, MARK THAT BOX. 58:14 THE NEXT QUESTION SAYS I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE 58:17 SUBJECT, MAYBE LIKE A PASTOR OR SOMEONE TO VISIT WITH YOU AND 58:20 PRAY WITH YOU AND ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS. 58:22 I WANT TO PRAY WITH YOU NOW BEFORE WE GO TO THE BREAK, GOD 58:27 WILL GIVE YOU WISDOM AND COURAGE TO FOLLOW HIS WORD AND RECEIVE 58:30 THAT REST. FATHER IN HEAVEN, WE WANT TO 58:32 THANK AND PRAISE YOU FOR YOUR PRESENCE IN THIS PRESENTATION. 58:37 WE SEE WE'RE LIVING THE LAST DAYS AND YOU'RE CALLING YOUR 58:39 PEOPLE BACK TO THE WORD OF GOD AND BACK TO THE TRUTH TO BUILD 58:44 ON THAT ROCK OF YOUR WORD. I PRAY YOU BLESS EACH PERSON 58:50 HERE THAT THEY HAVE THE WISDOM AND COURAGE AND FAITH TO FOLLOW 58:56 JESUS. I HOPE THAT YOUR SPIRIT WILL 58:58 SPEAK TO THEM AND IN CHRIST NAME I PRAY, AMREN. 01:01:23 PASS WE WELCOME YOU BACK. THIS CAN BE ANY QUESTION RELATED 01:01:36 TO THE BIBLE. WE PASS THOSE ALONG. 01:01:37 WE HAVE QUESTIONS THAT CAME IN AND MAYBE WE'LL START WITH THOSE 01:01:41 SO WE HAVE THEM PUT UP THAT QUESTION. 01:01:44 IT SAYS HAVING TIME BEEN LOST AND THE DAYS OF THE WEEK LOST 01:01:47 SINCE THE TIME OF CHRIST. SOMETHING ABOUT THE SABBATH. 01:01:50 HOW DO WE KNOW IT IS SATURDAY? >> IT IS EASIER FOR US FROM THE 01:01:55 TIME OF CHRIST TO SHOW THAT TIME HAS NOT BEEN LOST. 01:02:00 ONCE YOU GET BACK 4,000B.C. OR 3,000B.C., IT IS HARDER IT 01:02:11 TRACK. BUT WITH THE THOROUGH 01:02:12 CHRONICLING OF HISTORY FROM THE ROMANS AND THE GREEKS AND OTHER 01:02:14 CIVILIZATIONS THAT OVERLAP, WE'RE FAIRLY CERTAIN ABOUT THE 01:02:17 TIME FROM 2,000 YEARS AGO TO THE PRESENT DAY. 01:02:20 SO THERE'S BEEN NO TIME LOST WHEN IT COMES TO THE WEEKLY 01:02:23 CYCLE. SO WE KNOW THAT WHAT WAS THE 01:02:25 SEVENTH DAY FOR THEM BACK IN BIBLE TIMES IS BELIEVE IT OR NOT 01:02:29 STILL THE SEVENTH DAY OF THE WEEK NOW. 01:02:32 EVEN CHURCH HISTORY, THEY COMMENT ON KEEPING THE SABBATH 01:02:35 THROUGH THE EARLY CHURCH HISTORY. 01:02:38 THEY COMMENT ON HOW THINGS BEGAN IT CHANGE. 01:02:46 >> THE JEWISH NATION HAVE THE SABBATH ON SATURDAY. 01:02:49 >> THERE'S WAYS TO CHECK PROMINENT DATES WITH ASTRONOMY. 01:03:01 THEY COULD GO BACK RETRO ACTIVELY AND LOOK AT CERTAIN 01:03:04 DAYS OF THE WEEK AND SEE, IT IS STILL MATCHING UP. 01:03:07 >> OKAY. VERY GOOD. 01:03:10 OUR NEXT QUESTION THAT WE HAVE, DOES IT PROVE DISCIPLES KEPT THE 01:03:22 SABBATH AS A HOLY DAY. >> THIS IS A STORY OF -- IT 01:03:26 IS A MIRACLE THAT HAPPENED IN THE BIBLE. 01:03:30 THE REASON LUKE PUT IT IN THE BIBLE IS THERE WAS A 01:03:33 RESURRECTION. LET'S READ IT. 01:03:34 ON THE FIRST OF THE WEEK, THIS IS IN THE IN THE ORIGINAL, FIRST 01:03:39 DAY IN THE BIBLE BUT THAT DAY, ON THE FIRST OF THE WEEK WHEN 01:03:43 THE DISCIPLES CAME TOGETHER TO BREAK BREAD, THEY COME TOGETHER 01:03:47 IT BREAK BREAD. THAT MEANS IT IS COMMUNION ON 01:03:50 THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK. THEY BROKE BREAD FROM 01:03:54 HOUSE-TO-HOUSE. IT MEANT EATING, DID NOT ALWAYS 01:03:58 MEAN COMMUNION SERVICE. AND THE ROAD, JESUS BROKE BREAD 01:04:04 WITH THE DISCIPLES. SO YEAH. 01:04:09 THE LORD'S SUPPER WAS ON A THURSDAY. 01:04:13 GOD DID IMPORTANT THINGS EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK. 01:04:18 AND THE PRIEST WERE READY AND CONTINUED TO SPEAK UNTIL 01:04:22 MIDNIGHT AND THERE WAS LIGHTS IN THE UPPER CHAMBER. 01:04:26 AND MANY GATHERED. MEANING HE WAS FIGHTING TO 01:04:29 BREATHE. THEY SAT ON A CERTAIN WINDOW. 01:04:32 A MAN NAMED UTICA LOOKING FOR AIR AND FALLEN INTO A DEEP 01:04:37 SLEEP. THIS IS DARK. 01:04:38 NOW THINK ABOUT IT, WHEN -- WHEN IT IS -- IT IS -- IT IS THE 01:04:42 FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK BIBLICALLY, THAT'S WHAT WE CALL 01:04:47 SATURDAY NIGHT. SO THEY HAD BEEN TOGETHER ALL 01:04:48 THROUGH THE SABBATH, PAUL WAS LEAVING THE NEXT DAY, SUNDAY, 01:04:54 AND HE PREACHES LONG BECAUSE HE DOESN'T KNOW WHEN HE'LL SEE THEM 01:04:57 AGAIN. AND THIS IS ACTUALLY A SATURDAY 01:05:00 NIGHT MEETING WHICH WAS THE FIRST OF THE WEEK BIBLICALLY. 01:05:04 THIS YOUNG MAN FALLS ASLEEP AND HE FELL FROM THE LOFT AND WAS 01:05:13 TAKEN AND PAUL THROWS RICE ON HIM AND THEREFORE HE COME UP 01:05:16 AGAIN AND BROKEN BREAD. NOW THEY'VE BROKEN BREAD TWICE. 01:05:20 THEY'RE EATING. HE TALKED A LONG WHILE UNTIL THE 01:05:22 BREAK OF DAY. THIS IS NOTHING TO DO WITH GOD 01:05:25 ESTABLISHING A NEW SABBATH OR ARE PLACING THE OLD SABBATH. 01:05:29 THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SEVENTH DAY WHERE GOD NEEDED TO 01:05:33 REPLACE IT WITH A NEW DAY. >> OKAY. 01:05:36 VERY GOOD. WE HAVE ANOTHER VERSE. 01:05:37 ANOTHER QUESTION. DOES ROMANS 14:5 SAY IT DOESN'T 01:05:42 MATTER WHAT DAY YOU KEEP? IN THE RADIO PROGRAM WE OFTEN 01:05:46 GET THIS QUESTION. WHAT DOES ROMANS 14:5 TALK ABOUT 01:05:53 WHEN ONE MAN ONE DAY AND ANOTHER MAN EVERY DAY HE LIKES. 01:05:58 >> WE SAW THE QUESTION. PASTOR ROSS WAS GOING TO TAKE 01:06:02 LIVE QUESTIONS FROM YOU IN A MOMENT. 01:06:05 WE WE'RE DELIBERATELY WANTING TO COVER THE COMMON MISCONKCONCEPTIONS 01:06:12 PEOPLE COME UP WITH. IT IS AMAZING HOW MANY 01:06:15 CHRISTIANS TALK OTHER CHRISTIANS OUT OF KEEPING ONE OF THE 01:06:18 COMMANDMENTS. IT IS ASTONISHING TO ME. 01:06:20 PAUL IS TALKING HERE. HE SAID, I'M GOING TO START WITH 01:06:24 VERSE TWO IF IT IS OKAY. ONE BELIEVES HE MIGHT EAT ALL 01:06:29 THINGS. ANOTHER EATS HERBS. 01:06:30 SOME ARE AFRAID TO EAT THINGS THAT ARE SACRIFICED TO IDOLS AND 01:06:34 THEY EAT VEGETABLES. WHAT NOT HIM WHO EATS DESPISE 01:06:41 NOT HIM HE WHO EATS NOT. AND HIM THAT EATS NOT JUDGE HIM 01:06:45 THAT EATS. GOD RECEIVED HIM. 01:06:49 WE GO TO CHINESE RESTAURANT AND THERE MAY HAVE A BUDDHA. 01:07:03 PAUL SAYS IF IT BOTHERS YOU, EAT VEGETABLES. 01:07:12 PRAY WITH YOUR FOOD. HERE'S THE OTHER ISSUE. 01:07:15 ONE MAN IS SEEN ONE DAY THE SAME AND NOT EVERYONE PERSUADED IN 01:07:26 THE MIND. THEY WERE SENSITIVE ABOUT EATING 01:07:29 ANYTHING IN THE ROMAN MARKETPLACE BECAUSE THEY COULD 01:07:32 BE SACRIFICED THEY WANTED THE GENTILES TO CELEBRATE THE FEAST. 01:07:42 NOT THE WEEKLY SABBATH. HE SAID DON'T JUDGE A MAN. 01:07:49 LET EACH ONE BE PERSUADED IN HIS OWN MIND. 01:07:51 I NEVER HEARD A PASTOR IN A SUNDAY CHURCH AND STAND UP AND 01:07:55 TELL HIS CONGREGATION, IF YOU WANT TO COME SUNDAY THAT'S UP TO 01:07:59 YOU. HOWEVER YOU FEEL. 01:08:00 THEY NEVER USE THAT VERSUS THAT WAY UNTIL THE SABBATH TRUTH. 01:08:06 HERE HE'S TALKING ABOUT KEEPING JEWISH HOLIDAYS NOT THE SEVENTH 01:08:10 DAY SABBATH. THAT'S PART OF THE TEN 01:08:13 COMMANDMENTS THAT PREDATES CREATION. 01:08:15 KEEP THIS IN MIND, THE JEWISH CEREMO 01:08:23 CEREMONIAL SABBATH CAME AFTER SIN. 01:08:25 THE TEN COMMANDMENTS WERE BEFORE SIN AND THIS WERE WRITTEN ON 01:08:28 STONE BY GOD'S FINGER. TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LAWS, 01:08:33 YES THE SABBATH DOES STILL MATTER. 01:08:35 >> OKAY. VERY GOOD. 01:08:37 WE GO TO QUESTIONS THAT CAME IN. FIRST REQUEST, WHY DOES THE 01:08:43 SABBATH BEGIN AT SUN DOWNINSTEAD OF MIDNIGHT. 01:08:47 >> THEY DIDN'T HAVE WATCHES AND THE BIBLE SAYS THE EVENING 01:08:52 AND MORNING WERE THE FIRST DAY AND EVENING AND MORNING WERE THE 01:08:54 SECOND DAY AND AFTER GOD CREATED THE WORLD HE DECLARED THAT 01:08:57 EVENING WOULD BE THE COMPLETION, AND REALLY THE COMMENCEMENT OF A 01:09:01 NEW DAY. HE SAW THE LIGHT GO OUT AND HE 01:09:03 SAID THAT'S CONCLUSION AND EVERYTHING IS GOOD. 01:09:08 VERY GOOD. GOD CHOSE IT TO BE EVENING. 01:09:11 AT THE END OF THE DAY, AND YOU'RE RESTING AND WAKE UP TO 01:09:14 THE NEW DAY. >> ANOTHER QUESTION COMING. 01:09:18 THIS PERSON SAYS MY JOB AS A NURSE AND I GO TO WORK ON 01:09:23 SATURDAY. >> IF YOU'RE A SABBATH 01:09:25 KEEPING CHRISTIAN, YOU SHOULD TRY TO MAKE SURE YOU DON'T 01:09:28 SCHEDULE EVERY SABBATH SO YOU MISS GATHERING BUT CERTAINLY 01:09:33 JESUS HEALED PEOPLE ON SABBATH. THERE'S OBVIOUSLY SOME NECESSARY 01:09:36 WORK THAT NEED TO BE DONE ON THAT DAY. 01:09:40 YOU KNOW, I AM A SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN AND WE HAVE 01:09:45 A LOT OF HOSPITALS. I GUARANTEE YOU THEY DON'T 01:09:49 VACATE THE HOSPITALS FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND LEAVE THOSE PEOPLE 01:09:55 LANGUISHING. SORRY SABBATH. 01:09:56 YOU GOT TO TAKE CARE OF THE SICK. 01:09:59 THERE'S NECESSARY OCCUPATIONS THAT GOD WANTS US TO MAINTAIN. 01:10:05 IF YOU'RE IN THAT PROFESSION, TRY TO ROTATE YOUR SCHEDULE SO 01:10:09 YOU DON'T MISS EVERY WEEK. >> YOU NEED THAT YOUR OWN 01:10:15 SPIRITUAL ON THE SABBATH. THIS IS FROM A TEN-YEAR-OLD, HE 01:10:20 ASKS, DID JESUS LOOK LIKE JOSEPH SINCE HE WASN'T TECHNICALLY HIS 01:10:24 FATHER? >> THE BIBLE DOESN'T TELL US 01:10:27 WHAT JOSEPH LOOKED LIKE. IT IS HARD TO KNOW WHAT JESUS 01:10:29 LOOKED LIKE. WHAT WE DO KNOW ABOUT JESUS, IT 01:10:32 TELLS US HE LOOKED LIKE A NORMAL MAN BACK THEN BECAUSE HE WAS 01:10:35 ABLE TO HIDE IN THE CROWD. AND THEY HAD TO GET JUDAS TO 01:10:39 PICK HIM OUT BECAUSE HE LOOKED LIKE THE OTHERS. 01:10:42 GROWING UP THEY ALWAYS SAID IS NOT JUST A CARPENTER'S SON. 01:10:47 SO -- I WON'T TAKE THIS TOO FAR, BUT YOU KNOW, IT IS INTERESTING 01:10:53 THAT THE GENEALOGY OF JESUS IS TRACED THROUGH BOTH MARY, MARY'S 01:10:58 FATHER AND THROUGH JOSEPH. GOD COULD HAVE TAKEN 01:11:03 CHARACTERISTICS OF JOSEPH AND INTRODUCED THEM INTO JESUS SO HE 01:11:07 COULD FIT IN WITH THE FAMILY, I DON'T KNOW. 01:11:14 IF JESUS WAS THE ONLY BLOND IN THE FAMILY IT WOULD MAKE IT HARD 01:11:18 FOR HIM. >> GOOD QUESTION. 01:11:20 WHAT KIND OF ACTIVITIES WOULD BE GOOD TO DO ON THE SABBATH? 01:11:24 >> WE MENTIONED IT IS A DAY TO CORPORATE WORSHIP. 01:11:30 EXODUS 23, HOLY CONVOCATION, WE COME TOGETHER PART OF THE DAY. 01:11:36 THE STUDY OF THE WORD AND PROCLAMATION OF THE WORDS. 01:11:39 WE WOULD HAVE SABBATH SCHOOL AND SOME CALL IT SUNDAY SCHOOL. 01:11:45 IT IS A FAMILY TIME AND THEN YOU HAVE THE PROCLAMATION, THE 01:11:50 MINISTER WHO IS PROCLAIMING THE WORD AND THEN THERE'S OFTEN A 01:11:53 GOOD FELLOWSHIP MEAL, NOTHING WRONG WITH EATING TOGETHER. 01:11:57 GOD TOLD HIM TO GATHER MAN ON FRIDAY SO THEY COULD ENJOY IT ON 01:12:02 SABBATH. HE SAID BAKE WHAT YOU'RE GOING 01:12:03 TO BAKE AND COOK WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO COOK. 01:12:05 GET THAT WORK DONE AHEAD OF TIME. 01:12:07 IT IS OKAY TO TAKE A NAP AND REST AND CERTAINLY HOPE IT IS 01:12:11 BECAUSE IT COMES OVER ME EVERY SABBATH. 01:12:15 THEN IT IS GOOD TO GET OUT IN NATURE IF THE CLIMATE PERMITS. 01:12:20 DO SOMETHING SPIRITUALLY APPROPRIATE AND INTERACTIVE WITH 01:12:22 THE KID. IT IS A GOOD TIME, GOOD TIME FOR 01:12:27 VISITING. THERE'S OLD PEOPLE THAT NEVER 01:12:29 GET A VISIT. YOU TAKE THE KID AND SING A 01:12:31 SONG. WE GET TOGETHER WITH FRIEND AND 01:12:34 WE SING. DAY TO REST AND BLESS THE 01:12:40 FELLOWSHIP. >> OKAY. 01:12:41 SOMEBODY IS ASKING MAYBE THEY LIVE ON A FARM, THEY SAY CAN I 01:12:45 FEED MY ANIMALS ON THE SABBATH? >> ABSOLUTELY. 01:12:48 JESUS TALKS ABOUT THIS SPECIFICALLY. 01:12:50 EACH OF YOU ON THE SABBATH DAY YOU LEAD YOUR ANIMALS TO WATER, 01:12:54 IF THEY FALL IN THE DITCH YOU PULL THEM OUT. 01:12:58 YOU HAVE COWS MILK YOUR COWS AND GOATS. 01:13:01 THEY'LL BE MISERABLE AND DRY UP IF YOU DON'T KEEP MILKING THEM. 01:13:04 THEY'RE EXPECTED TO TAKE CARE OF THE ANIMALS. 01:13:07 YOU SHOULD NOT GO OUT HARVESTING, THE BIBLE IS 01:13:12 SPECIFIC ABOUT THAT. THAT'S SOMETHING DIFFERENT. 01:13:14 THAT OUGHT TO WAIT A DAY. WHEN IT COMES TO TAKING CARE OF 01:13:18 THE ANIMALS, A RIGHTEOUS MAN REGARDS THE LIFE OF HIS BEASTS. 01:13:22 SO WE SHOULD CARE FOR OUR ANIMALS. 01:13:25 >> OKAY. TALKING ABOUT ANIMALS, SOMEBODY 01:13:27 ELSE IS ASKING WHERE DO DINOSAURS FALL IN THE BIBLICAL 01:13:35 TIMELINE? >> SO MUCH IN THE MEDIA ABOUT 01:13:38 DINOSAURS, I WOULD HAVE TO RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE WITH THE 01:13:41 DATES ASSIGNED. I WAS JUST THIS WEEK LOOKING AND 01:13:44 AN IT IS AMAZING TO ME THAT SOMEONE SENT ME NATIONAL 01:13:48 GEOGRAPHIC PHOTOS AND SAID WE DISCOVERED AMBER AND LOOK AT 01:13:52 THIS. ANTS THAT WERE CAUGHT IN AMBER 01:13:55 HAVE NOT CHANGED IN 100 MILLION YEARS. 01:13:59 LOOK, A DRAGONFLY, A MOSQUITO CAUGHT IN AMBER AND HAVEN'T 01:14:07 CHANGED IN 100 MILLION YEARS BUT THEY THINK THE REX LIVED LESS 01:14:15 TIME AGO BUT THE SPIDERS LIVED. THEY KEEP UPDATING THOSE DATES 01:14:22 EVERY FEW YEARS. I THINK THE DINOSAURS LIVED 01:14:27 CONTEMPORANEOUSLY WITH PEOPLE BEFORE THE FLOOD. 01:14:28 THE LARGER REPTILES WIPED OUT. WE HAVE REPTILES TODAY, DRAGONS 01:14:35 AND IGUANAS. ALL CREATURES, MAMMALS AND 01:14:40 REPTILES ARE SMALLER. I THINK THERE'S MISDIAGNOSIS OF 01:14:47 THOSE DATES. I REMEMBER A FEW YEARS AGO, AN 01:14:54 ATHEIST PALIN TOLL GIST FOUND A TRAN SAUER RUSS REX. 01:15:03 HE SAID I DON'T BELIEVE IN CREATION OR GOD, BUT THIS IS 01:15:08 ELASTIC SOFT COLLAGEN TISSUE IN THE BONE OF THE TRAN SAUER RUSS 01:15:17 REX. >> YOU GOT YOUR BIBLE. 01:15:21 MATTHEW 522. THE QUESTION IS, COULD YOU HELP 01:15:25 EXPLAIN WHAT THIS VERSE MEANS? MATTHEW 5:22. 01:15:34 >> WHOEVER IS ANGRY WITH HIS BROTHER WITHOUT A CAUSE WILL BE 01:15:38 IN DANGER OF JUDGMENT. AND WHOEVER WILL BE IN DANGER OF 01:15:42 THE COUNCIL BUT WHOEVER SAYS YOU FOOL SHALL BE IN DANGER OF 01:15:48 HELLFIRE. THE WORD ROCA MEANS WORTHLESS 01:15:51 ONE. YOU SHOULDN'T CALL YOUR BROTHER 01:15:55 FOOL. THAT'S A STRONG WORD. 01:15:57 IT IS INTERESTING THAT JESUS AT ONE POINT TOLD THE DISCIPLES, 01:16:01 SAID OH, FOOLS, SLOW OF HEART TO BELIEVE AND ALL OF THE PROPHETS 01:16:06 HAVE SPOKEN. HE'S BASICALLY SAYING, WE SHOULD 01:16:09 NOT SAY ANYTHING DEROGATORY OR UNKIND OR ESPECIALLY TELLING THE 01:16:14 PERSON THEY HAVE NO VALUE. SO HOPE THAT IS ANSWERING WHAT 01:16:18 YOU'RE ASKING THERE. DO NOT BE ANGRY WITH YOUR 01:16:22 BROTHER WITHOUT CAUSE, YOU'RE GUILTY OF MURDER IF YOU DO THAT. 01:16:27 >> ANOTHER QUESTION, HOW DO I WITNESS TO AN ATHEIST FRIEND 01:16:33 WHO SEES GOD AS HATEFUL. >> YEAH, YOU HEAR THAT 01:16:37 QUESTION. THEY SAY GOD SEEMS TO VENGEFUL 01:16:40 IN THE BIBLE. REALLY GOD IS -- THE BIBLE SAYS 01:16:44 GOD IS LOVE. IT IS THE SAME GOD IN THE NEW 01:16:46 TESTAMENT AND THE OLD TESTAMENT. GOD SEES THAT SINNERS ARE 01:16:54 MISERABLE AND SO SOMETIMES GOD PUTS THEM OUT OF THEIR MISERY. 01:17:05 JESUS DOESN'T WANT ANYONE TO PERISH. 01:17:08 WHY WILL YOU DIE, I HAVE NO PLEASURE IN THE DEATH OF THE 01:17:13 WICKED. THEY FORGET THERE'S A DEVIL. 01:17:16 IF ATHEISTS UNDERSTOOD, THE DEVIL IS THE ONE THAT KILLS AND 01:17:21 DESTROYS AND BRINGS MISERY. LOOK IN THE FIRST CHAPTER IN THE 01:17:25 BOOK OF JOB. IT IS THE DEVIL THAT GOES OUT 01:17:27 AND BRINGS MAKING AND SUFFERING TO JOB. 01:17:31 AND JESUS CAME TO HEAL AND TO SAVE. 01:17:34 SO HE NEED TO READ THE BIEBEL AND WE'LL SEE, IT IS A BATTLE 01:17:39 BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL. GOD IS GOING TO WIN THAT BATTLE. 01:17:42 RIGHT NOW THERE'S PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM THE WAR THAT IS 01:17:44 GOING ON. >> OKAY. 01:17:46 >> ANOTHER QUESTION, IT SAYS SHOULD CHRISTIANS BE KOSHER? 01:17:54 >> SHOULD CHRISTIANS BE KOSHER? WHEN YOU SAY KOSHER, EVEN 01:18:00 ORTHODOX JEWS TODAY ARE NOT ALL KOSHER BASED ON THE BIBLE 01:18:04 REQUIREMENTS. THEY DEVELOPED INTERPRETATIONS 01:18:06 OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE KOSHER AND KEEP IN MIND MY MOTHER WAS 01:18:11 JEWISH. SPEAKING WITH A LITTLE 01:18:12 EXPERIENCE, A LOT OF THE JEWS IN NORTH AMERICA FOLLOW NO KOSHER 01:18:18 LAWS. FOR THE MORE ORTHODOX JEWS, THEY 01:18:20 HAVE REQUIREMENTS IN THE BIBLE. THE BIBLE MAKES A DISTINCTION 01:18:30 BETWEEN CLEAN AND UNCLEAN FOODS AND A PERSON WOULD BE BETTER OFF 01:18:32 HEALTH WISE IF THEY FOLLOW THAT. >> ANOTHER PRACTICAL 01:18:38 QUESTION, IF I TAKE THE BUS ON THE SABBATH, AM I BREAKING THE 01:18:44 SABBATH? >> NO. 01:18:45 WE DID A PROGRAM LIKE THIS IN NEW YORK CITY. 01:18:48 VERY EXCITING PROGRAM. AND VERY YOU FOR PEOPLE IN NEW 01:18:50 YORK HAVE CARS. YOU CAN'T AFFORD THEM. 01:18:53 EVERYONE GETS AROUND WITH PUBLIC TRANSIT. 01:18:55 WHAT WE DID, IS WE JUST BOUGHT SUBWAY PASSES AND YOU WAVE YOUR 01:18:59 PASS AND WALK THROUGH. WE HAD TO TAKE BUSES. 01:19:01 WE HAD TO TAKE SUBWAYS TO GET AROUND TO GET TO THE PLACE OF 01:19:09 WORSHIP. SOMEONE MAY ASK SOME OF YOU NEED 01:19:16 ANIMALS. SOME PEOPLE TAKE THE BUGGY TEN 01:19:18 MILES TO CHURCH. THEY WOULDN'T WORK THEIR HORSES 01:19:21 VERY HARD. SOMETIMES YOU -- YOU NEED TO DO 01:19:23 CERTAIN THINGS IN ORDER TO GET TOGETHER FOR WORSHIP. 01:19:26 WHEN WE HAVE WORSHIP IN OUR CHURCH ON SABBATH, EVERY NOW AND 01:19:30 THEN THE DEACONS PUT DOWN EXTRA CHAIRS AND THERE'S PRACTICAL 01:19:34 THINGS. THE BIBLE SAYS JESUS SAID, EVEN 01:19:36 THE PRIESTS WOULD PROFANE THE SABBATH AND THEY'RE GUILTILESS. 01:19:43 SOMETIMES THERE'S THINGS YOU NEED TO DO TO WORSHIP GOD. 01:19:46 YOU NEED TO SACRIFICE ANIMALS AND STUFF LIKE THAT. 01:19:48 YOU GET ON THE BUS AND BUS FARE TO GET TO CHURCH. 01:19:52 THE COST. SOME PEOPLE CROSS A TOLL BRIDGE 01:19:54 EVERY TIME THEY GO TO CHURCH. I THINK GOD IS PRACTICAL. 01:19:59 >> SOMEBODY ELSE IS ASKING, CAN I KEEP BOTH SATURDAY AND 01:20:02 SUNDAY AS SABBATH? >> CAN'T KEEP BOTH BECAUSE ONLY 01:20:07 ONE IS SABBATH. WHEN I FIRST LEARNED THIS, I'LL 01:20:09 TELL YOU I WAS IN A DILEMMA, I WAS CONVINCED ABOUT THE SABBATH 01:20:14 FROM THE BIBLE AND I WAS GOING TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY AND I 01:20:17 REMEMBER HOW SHOOK UP I WAS WHEN I LEARNED THIS. 01:20:20 I'M SORRY IF I CAME ON TOO STRONG TONIGHT. 01:20:23 THEY DID IT, SHOOK MY WORLD. I SAID BOY, I CAN'T ESCAPE IT 01:20:33 HODGE LOGICALLY. 01:20:34 EVERYONE I TALKED TO CONVINCED ME. 01:20:35 I TRY TO GO BOTH DAYS BECAUSE MY FRIENDS WENT TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY 01:20:40 AND I DIDN'T KNOW ANYBODY IN THE SABBATH CHURCHES AND I REALIZED, 01:20:44 YOU CAN'T SERVE TWO MASTERS. IT WAS A DEFENDANT ATTITUDE. 01:20:49 SO I MADE THE DECISION ONLY ONE IS THE SEVENTH DAY AND YOU CAN 01:20:52 ONLY KEEP ONE SABBATH. YOU CAN GO TO CHURCH, TUESDAY, 01:20:56 WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A MEETING HERE TOMORROW 01:21:03 NIGHT. YOU CAN GO TO CHURCH ON ANY DAY 01:21:07 OF THE WEEK. JESUS DIED ON A FRIDAY. 01:21:09 NOTHING WRONG WITH WORSHIPPING GOD SEVEN DAYS A WEEK BUT NOT 01:21:12 ALL SEVEN DAYS OF THE SABBATH. >> SOMEBODY ELSE ASKING, DO 01:21:16 ANGELS KEEP THE SABBATH? >> I THINK ANGELS ALSO WORSHIP 01:21:27 GOD BUT THEY'RE DOING MINISTERING JOBS ON THE SABBATH. 01:21:33 JESUS SAID MY FATHER WORKS AND HERE I WORK, IF GOT IS WORKING, 01:21:38 SO ARE HIS ANGELS. ANGEL ARE NO DOUBT BUSY DOING 01:21:45 MEE MISSIONS OF MERCY ON THE 01:21:51 SABBATH. THEY DON'T KEEP IT THE WAY WE'RE 01:21:56 ASKED. >> HERE'S AN INTERESTING 01:21:57 QUESTION. THIS PERSON ASKS, THEY SAY IN 01:22:00 REVELATION IT SAYS IN THE CITY THERE'S NO -- NO -- THERE'S NO 01:22:05 NEED OF NIGHT, JESUS IS THE LIGHT. 01:22:08 SO HOW DO WE KEEP THE SABBATH. >> IT SAYS YEAH, THERE'S NO 01:22:13 UNDERSTOOD OF THE SUN. IT DOESN'T SAY THERE IS NO SUN. 01:22:16 IT IS CLEAR, THERE'S A DISTINCTION OF DAY AND NIGHT. 01:22:19 IN THE WORLD MADE NEW, GOD WILL RESTORE THINGS TO HIS ORIGINAL 01:22:22 PLAN. THIS WILL BE SUN AND MOON AND 01:22:24 SAYS THE SUN, I THINK IT IS IN ISAIAH, I DON'T REMEMBER THE 01:22:28 VERSE, I'LL LOOK IT UP, SEVEN TIMES BRIGHTER AND THE 01:22:33 BRIGHTNESS OF THE MOON WILL BE LIKE THE SUN. 01:22:35 EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE MUCH BRIGHTER THAN NOW. 01:22:37 THERE'S A SUN AND MOON AND STARS AND GOD IS GOING TO HAVE DAYS 01:22:40 AND THE EARTH WILL ROTATE BUT IN THE CITY THERE'S NO NEED OF THE 01:22:43 SUN BECAUSE THE FWLORY OF GOD IS BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN WHEN GOD 01:22:48 APPEARED TO PETER, JAMES AND JOHN, WHEN THEY'RE ON THE MOUNT 01:22:57 OF TRANS FIGURATION AND HE WAS BRIGHTER. 01:23:01 THE GLORY OF THE SUN IS -- IS BASICALLY OVERPOWERED BY THE 01:23:06 GLORY OF GOD, THAT'S ALL THAT IS SAYING. 01:23:12 >> ISAIAH 30:26. ANOTHER QUESTION, CAN A 01:23:15 CHRISTIAN ENLIST IN THE MILITARY? 01:23:22 >> THEY CAN. SOME MIGHT SAY ARE YOU NOT IN A 01:23:28 COMPROMISING SITUATION. I THINK YOU ARE. 01:23:33 I'M GOING TO JOIN THE MILITARY AND GET AWAY FROM MOM AND DAD 01:23:36 AND NO ONE WILL TELL ME WHAT TO DO. 01:23:38 SO I CAN BE FREE. IF YOU WANT SOMEONE TO RUN YOUR 01:23:43 LIFE DURING THE MILITARY, I WENT TO MILITARY SCHOOL, I DIDN'T GO 01:23:48 TO THE MILITARY. I WAS AT MILITARY SCHOOL. 01:23:51 THEY HAD A RULE FOR EVERYTHING. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE GOING TO TELL 01:23:55 YOU WHAT YOU CAN AND CAN'T EAT AND WORK AND NOT WORK. 01:24:00 THEY EXPECT TO PUT A GUN IN YOUR HAND AND TELL YOU YOU NEED TO 01:24:02 TAKE ANOTHER LIFE. I KNOW DURING THE WARS THERE HAD 01:24:05 BEEN SOME CHRISTIANS THAT HAD BEEN INCREDIBLE HEROES IN THE 01:24:09 MILITARY. THEY MADE A MOVIE ABOUT A 01:24:13 SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN THAT SAID THAT -- THAT HE 01:24:19 VOLUNTEERED, HE WENT IN THE SERVICE. 01:24:21 HE SAID I WANT TO HELP. I WON'T PICK UP A GUN. 01:24:24 I'LL HEAL PEOPLE. HE ENDED UP GETTING A 01:24:27 CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR FOR RESCUING I THINK ROUGHLY 70 01:24:34 PEOPLE FROM CONSTANT FIRE. I KNEW HIM. 01:24:36 HE CAME TO OUR CHURCH IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AND JUST A 01:24:40 REAL MAN OF GOD. HE WAS IN THE MILITARY. 01:24:41 HE SAID I WON'T BREAK THE SABBATH UNLESS IT IS AN 01:24:44 EMERGENCY FOR HUMAN LIFE AND HE SAID THAT I'M NOT GOING TO CARRY 01:24:47 A GUN. SOMEHOW HE NOT ONLY MADE IT 01:24:50 THROUGH THE MILITARY SERVICE, BUT HE ENDED UP GETTING THE 01:24:54 CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR, AN INCREDIBLE STORY. 01:24:58 >> OKAY. SOMEBODY ELSE ASKING, IF 01:25:00 SATURDAY IS THE SABBATH, WHY DOES SO MANY -- WHY DO SO MANY 01:25:05 PEOPLE WORSHIP ON SUNDAY? >> I THINK THEY'RE DOING IT IN 01:25:09 SINCERITY BECAUSE IT IS A CUSTOM AND TRADITION THAT THEY LEARNED 01:25:14 GROWING UP. IT IS SOMETHING THAT CAME NOT 01:25:17 FROM GOD'S WORD, IT CAME FROM HISTORY. 01:25:20 AND YOU KNOW, WE CAN READ HISTORICALLY AND WE'LL STUDY 01:25:24 MORE ABOUT THAT IN FTURE LESSONS THAT AROUND THE TIME OF 01:25:27 CONSTANTINE THE GREAT. THIS IS OVER 300 YEARS AFTER 01:25:30 CHRIST, MANY CHRISTIANS WERE KEEPING TWO DAYS. 01:25:33 THE ROMANS KIND OF CELEBRATED ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK. 01:25:36 IT WAS CALLED THE DAY OF THE SUN. 01:25:38 THAT'S WHY SUNDAY IS CALLED SUN. THE JEWS THEY NUMBERED THEM, 01:25:46 FIRST DAY, SO ON. THAT'S HOW THE JEWS HAD THE DAYS 01:25:51 OF THE WEEK. THE ROMANS NUMBERED THEM AND 01:25:55 NAMED THEM AFTER GOD. GREEKS AND ROMANS. 01:26:03 TUESDAY. WEDNESDAY. 01:26:08 THE JEWS BECAME UNPOPULAR DURING THE REBELLION. 01:26:12 SOME OF THE CHRISTIANS WANTED TO SAY WE'RE NOT EXACTLY JEWS AND 01:26:15 THEY BEGAN TO DISTANCE THEMSELVES FROM THE JEWS AND 01:26:17 THEY SAID WE WILL BE ABLE TO REACH MORE ROMANS IF WE BEGIN TO 01:26:21 KEEP SUNDAY ALSO. AND FROM AN EFFORT TO TRY TO 01:26:29 EVANGELIZE THE ROMANS. IN MANY WESTERN CULTURES THEY 01:26:32 KEEP BOTH DAYS, GRADUALLY ABANDONING THE SEVENTH DAY IN 01:26:36 FAVOR OF THE FIRST DAY AND IT HAPPENED OVER A PERIOD OF 01:26:39 HUNDREDS OF YEARS. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN QUICKLY. 01:26:41 >> WE GOT TO STUDY MORE ABOUT THAT AS WE GET TO 01:26:49 PROPHECIES IN THE BIBLE. WE WILL LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT IS 01:26:57 COMING UP. QUE 01:26:58 WE HAVE A FULL WEEKEND TOMORROW. WE HAVE A SPECIAL PROGRAM. 01:26:59 IT IS GOING TO BE LIVE BROADCAST AND IT IS CALLED THE RICHEST 01:27:05 CAVEMAN AND YOU'LL SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE. 01:27:06 >> I'LL SHARE MY -- MY PERM EXPERIENCE. 01:27:09 I THINK THEY'LL FIND IT INTERESTING. 01:27:11 IT HAS BEEN IN A BOOK FOR A FEW YEARS. 01:27:17 IF ANYBODY WATCHING AND YOU'RE IN SACRAMENTO, WE'LL HAVE ROOM 01:27:24 FOR PEOPLE. WE CAN SEPARATE 200 ON THE TWO 01:27:30 DIFFERENT FLOORS. WE WOULD WELCOME YOU. 01:27:31 AND -- AND I'LL BE SHARING MY PERSONAL TESTIMONY. 01:27:39 WE'RE EXCITED. >> YOU WONDERED ABOUT 01:27:43 SACRAMENTO AND WANT TO COME, 6605, 6605, SIERRA COLLEGE 01:27:53 BOULEVARD IN GRANITE BAY CALIFORNIA. 01:27:56 HOPE FOLKS WILL COME OUT. AND YOU HAVE TO MEET THEM. 01:27:58 >> DON'T FORGET, TOMORROW IS THE 31st AND THAT'S CALLED 01:28:03 REFORMATION DAY. THAT'S MARTIN LUTHER. 01:28:07 ALSO CALLED HALLOWEEN. TOMORROW WE'RE STUDYING |
