Sunday would be called the 1st on God's calendar and so on.
October 5, 2007 at 2:11 am#67522outofbabylonParticipantWe first need to understand that we must look to God for all things including time and days. The calendar we use today is a pagan one with each month named after a Roman god and each day of the week after a fallen angel. God's year starts in Abib Ex 12:2 and 13:4. The months of God's calendar are different from the pagan calendar but the days of the week are the same. This is important to know in order to worship God how he wants to be worshiped.
October 5, 2007 at 1:27 am#67520outofbabylonParticipantHi Im new here but I have been reading on the site for a few weeks now. It is nice to see so many searching for the truth. Here is what has been revealed to me.
The Sabbath Bible Study
An old Jewish tradition or and everlasting covenant with the Creator?Why do so many people today reject one of God’s most rewarding commandments? What does the Bible says about keeping the 7th day Sabbath?
People that want to follow Mat 6:33 and seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; shouldn’t keep any ol' day out of convenience, this is why.
In Genesis 2:2 God rested on the 7th day as an example for us to follow. Other verses about the 7th day are Ex. 16:25-28, the 4th commandment in 20:8-11, and 23:12, 31:13-17, and Lev.23:3.
Ex.31:16 Tells us that this is a perpetual covenant between God and man. Before there was even Israelite people walking the earth the Bible tells us of Abraham. Abraham followed God’s commandments Gen. 26:5.
Also we don’t need to be born “physically” in or of Israel to be Israel. Through our belief in The Messiah we are one in God’s spirit. The proof is in the Bible.
Rom. 2:28-29 says For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Here God tells us we are Jew's inwardly what you are on the outside doesn’t count here. The Bible is very plain on this topic.
Rom. 9:6-8 says Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
The promise talked of here is the promise of all the nations of the earth being blessed by Christ’s coming, thru Abraham’s seed. See also Gen. 22:18 and Matt. 1:1.
What should matter most to you is how God sees you. Well open your eyes because if you accept Christ, than you are all heirs according to the promise and are part of Israel. Furthermore you need to keep the Sabbath, if you are not Christ's than you are in a bad situation and you should accept him right now by asking Him into your life through prayer.
