Various thoughts outlined
below come to mind when considering this time dis-honoured dilema
-- or opportunity?
The Sabbath and the Words of
Jesus Upon The Cross “It is Finished”
These words are both the pivotal issue, and resolution of the
question asked as the title of the previous section. This is
so as the work of Jesus Christ, The Lord Most High upon Calvary
and its conclusion was and continues to be, part of the description
of the work of Creation given to us in Genesis. The focus is
the synchronicity between a temporal day and a day of Creation;
and which, or is it Who is the first and the last in each case.
We seek resolution of this matter in the Bible where we find
no secular name for the day upon which the Crucifixion, Sabbath
or Resurrection occurred. All we are told is that the Resurrection
took place on the first day of the week and that the Sabbath
was and therefore always has been the day following The day
of Crucifixion.
Jesus words from the Cross quoted above not
only confirm the conclusion of His earthly ministry (work),
but also the name of the sixth; and also the last day of His
work of / as Creation. This is so as the work of Calvary was
/ is a synchronicity of Creation as Kairos. Thus we have the
Sabbath as the seventh day, that is the day of Rest .The Lord’s
Day is not the Sabbath, it is the day of Resurrection on the
first day of the week as the Gospels confirm. To reverse the
order of these two days is to accept knowingly or otherwise,
the spirit of deception therein.
This reversal places the resurrection
on the first day of the week before the Crucifixion and death
on the evening of the sixth day. The latter recognised by worship
on the Sabbath, the seventh day. This is not only an error in
the temporal but also as fallen spirit, individual and corporate.
Whether this is deliberate or otherwise; in ignorance or otherwise;
it leads to the ultimate denial of both events by the present
church temporal . This is also to deny Jesus Mission as an Incarnation
of The Christ which in turn is to deny The Christ. Why so? --
Because death must occur before re-birth!
We choose Friday as the day of Jesus death. Therefore this marks the end of his flesh ministry. Thus Saturday is His day of rest in grave after the six days of work as in the Genesis account of Creation. Therefore Saturday is the Sabbeth Day of rest upon Scotland and all of Christendom should worship and give thanks. This is then followed by the first day of the new Creation. This is The Lord's Day upon which His work of the second Eden and therefore the Third Adam commences.
We are concerned with Christ’s “Three Days Journey”,
spanning three days but lasting about one and a half days. Presently
the church temporal causes the Nation of Scotia to worship on
Sunday. From the discussion above, what is the Scriptural basis
and therefore Blessing of the Nation in this regard?
The people are the Nation of whom the church temporal is servant
not the other way around. Through worship in the church temporal
do the people understand the difference between the Sabbath
and The Lord’s Day? Which is the adjective in the phrase
“Sabbath Day”? Here is the cause and explanation
of the error, confusion, quandary, deceit? By whom? Sabbath
(no article) as Spirit is not a day at all. Neither therefore
is “it” an it. Sabbath as Spirit, is death (not mortal)
in life; and Life in death. Amen. -- Amen meaning The Lord’s
Will Be.
Christ gave
His LIfe for His Church; who (not which) are His People. Therefore
each individual must also die for Him. Death, like Love does
not deny its own truth. This is why and how the church temporal
must die before resurrection as The Church Spiritual upon earth.
Only giving unto death is to Love. Who, or is it what
does the church temporal take from the people?
Some regard the use of a particular day as Sabbath to be unimportant.
This “grave” error is to deny the manifestation
of Kairos Who not which, without exception always IS at a precise
temporal moment. Thus to deny recognition of this moment either
in its significance or earthly timing is to deny the Crucifixion
and thus the Resurrection. If Sunday is Sabbath, as a Nation
we should be enabled to worship in Jesus Name -- being the Will
of God. Do we? Enabled here does not refer to being free to
do so, nor is the word used in the nominal sense. It is the
matter of fact which is highlighted.
As we all know the
phenomenon of light and darkness every twenty four hours is
a Spiritual happening manifesting in the temporal because of
the earth's rotation. The tilt of the earth's axis causes the
variation in daylight duration. It is therefore useful to consider
humanity as a Creation of The Cosmic Christ. We are then caused
to enquire into the origin of the names of each day of the week.
This is to ask ourselves who was the author of these names;
when and why; upon what basis and to what purpose, if any? Saturday
is seen to relate to Saturn; Sunday is readily identified as
relating to the planet of that name, and Monday relates to our
moon. What of the remaining days? Genesis tells us of the seven
days of Creation. The intellect despite the change of context
of the word "day" is likely to retain a time perspective
be it twenty four hours or several million years for each "day"
of Creation. Thus the finite intellect would seek to understand
Infinity. These considerations should cause us to ponder our
relationship with the planets and thus whether humanity is part
of Nature or simply has dominion over it. Is Nature an "it"?
Better by far that we adopt the Wisdom of The Child in asking
the question "twinkle, twinkle little star how I wonder
what you are ...?" Biblical Wisdom as Sophia does not ask
the stars what they are, but Who we
are? This same Wisdom cannot deny its Self an answer.
The word worship in this Witness is defined as:- “acknowledging
the supremacy of”. The Name of Jesus is “I AM --
The Way, The Truth, and The Light”. I AM is The Will of
God , Who is within -- the Name Jesus. It is not therefore an
intellectual search for the correct day of the week within Whom
to worship The Lord Jesus as Cosmic Christ. The word correct
used in the previous sentence is temporal. It is not a material
search at all! When Sabbath is revealed to the church temporal
it will in part see the gravity of it’s error. Amen.
The significance of the discussion thus far is reflected also
in the church temporal’s basis for the determination of
the date of Easter Day. This arose historically from the intellectual
conclusion of one man. Do both of these related topics offer
a dilemma; situation; irrelevancy; frustration (ie impasse),
or opportunity? An initial consideration of which of these words
is found to be most productive will prove useful. Amen.
