When Jesus told His disciples, “But pray ye that your flight (from a besieged Jerusalem) be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day” was it because he had no idea the sabbath would shortly be abolished? (See Matthew 24:20). The need to flee from Jerusalem was nearly forty years away at the time Jesus made that statement. Isn’t it quite obvious that the Lord of the sabbath (Mark 2:27-28) knew that the sabbath would still be holy time in 70 A.D. when the Roman armies besieged Jerusalem and slaughtered the Jews by the thousands?
Not only was the sabbath still holy time in 70 A.D., it was still holy time in 700 A.D. as well as 1700 A.D., and 2024 A.D. It will still be holy time when this writer draws his last breath and when our Lord appears in the heavens with ten thousands of His holy ones.
God have mercy on those who have been deceived into thinking the apostle Paul, or any other human being, had the power to abolish God’s eternal holy sabbath.
God’s holy prophet Isaiah clearly states that the sabbath will still be intact and honored by both Jew and Gentile in the new heavens and new earth. (See Isaiah 66:22-23). God help you to understand, and, if you do not, God have mercy on your continued violation of His holy sabbath, the day He Himself calls “a delight.” (See Isaiah 58:13-14).
Satan’s grip on this old world is becoming stronger and stronger by the hour. God help you to understand.
