This document discusses the biblical Sabbath and examines arguments for observing Sunday instead of Saturday. It notes that God established the seventh day as the Sabbath at creation and that it is meant to be perpetual. While some claim the Sabbath was changed or abolished, the document cites scriptures indicating it will be observed eternally and was not altered by the new covenant. It identifies the little horn power of Daniel 7 as the papacy, which attempted to change God's law including removing reference to the seventh day Sabbath. Reasons given for Sunday observance are addressed, concluding that the biblical Sabbath on the seventh day remains relevant for Christians today.

Crossing the Barriers - Alistair Begg (Study Guide)Truth For Life
(Study Guide for audio series: http://www.truthforlife.org/resources/series/crossing-the-barriers-with-study-guide/ )
Evangelism. The word alone produces a tightness in the stomach and anguish in the hearts of many Christians. Does this nerve-jangling word produce that type of fear in you? That may be one of the barriers that hinders you from sharing the Good News of Christ.
Does the Bible call us to brazenly accost people in the streets with the demands of the gospel, and do we somehow think we will be able to coerce the unbeliever into believing the "Good News?" Many Christians misunderstand the biblical directives and shy away from such prospects thinking "I don’t have the gift of evangelism" or "I don’t know enough to be effective" and end up leaving the task to others.
Crossing the Barriers will not only equip you to understand what evangelism truly is, but enable you to make sure your message and motives are correct; and to effectively cross the barriers that keep us from presenting Christ and that prevent others from believing the message. Evangelism is the normal life of the church and can never be an optional extra. We will never be effective in evangelism so long as we regard it as a special activity in which we engage at certain times. Rather, it is to be the spontaneous and constant outflow of our Christian experience.
Much like the herald or town crier, who conveys the news from the king, we are not to express our own opinions or ideas. We are commanded to faithfully deliver the message the king has given to us. Our message is not for ourselves, but rather it is for the welfare of those who listen and the glory of the One who provides the Good News.

A verse by verse commentary on John chapter 12 dealing with Jesus being anointed at Bethany with a complaint by Judas, and then the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. Jesus goes on to predict His death. Many believed on Him but they feared the Pharisees and remained silent.
This is a study of Jesus being the Lord of the Sabbath. He made it a day in which love rather than law was the key to keeping it. The legalism of the Pharisees mad it a burden, but Jesus made it a blessing by making it a day in which doing good was permitted and promoted.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

4. Pat Robertson wrote;
“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy,
is a command for the personal benefit to
each citizen. Our minds, spirits, and bodies
demand a regular time of rest. Perhaps
God’s greatest gift to mankind’s earthly
existence is the ability to be free from work
one day a week.”
(The New World Order, Pg. 236)
5. Pope John Paul II -- Dies Domini # 16
“The commandment of the Decalogue by
which God decrees the Sabbath observance
is formulated in the Book of Exodus in a
distinctive way: ‘Remember the Sabbath day
in order to keep it holy’ (20:8).
6. Pope John Paul II -- Dies Domini
“And the inspired text goes on to give the
reason for this, recalling as it does the work
of God: "For in six days the Lord made heaven
and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and
rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord
blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy" (v.
11).
Before decreeing that something be done,
the commandment urges that something be
remembered.”
7. Pope John Paul II -- Dies Domini
“It is a call to awaken remembrance of the
grand and fundamental work of God which is
creation, a remembrance which must inspire
the entire religious life of man and then fill
the day on which man is called to rest. Rest
therefore acquires a sacred value: the faithful
are called to rest not only as God rested, but
to rest in the Lord, bringing the entire
creation to him, in praise and thanksgiving,
intimate as a child and friendly as a spouse.”
8. Dr. James Kennedy, Coral Ridge Presbyterian
Church, Fort Lauderdale FL, 11 /4 / 2001
“God so loved the human race that He gave us
the Sabbath. In fact, before the state, before
the church, before even the family, the first
institution that God gave to mankind was the
Sabbath. Having created the heavens and the
earth and all things therein, he rested on the
seventh day and blessed the seventh day and
hallowed it. And He commands us to keep it
as such, because He loves us. And if we love
Him we will love His Sabbath.”
9. Dr. James Kennedy, Coral Ridge Presbyterian
Church, Fort Lauderdale FL, 11 /4 / 2001
“The Sabbath, the first institution given to
man, is one that is vitally important. It is the
longest commandment of the ten, more words
dedicated to that throughout the rest of the
scripture, mentioned more than virtually any
other, and it was a very serious matter. God
intended us to keep it.”
10. Christianity Today editorial, November 2003

i. Verse 25 – Speaks against the Most High.
62. 13. Who, or what power, is
represented by
the little horn?
The Roman Papacy
63. (a) The Papacy was established during the
rule of Rome, the fourth beast.
(b) It was seen after the division of Rome
into the ten kingdoms of Europe.
(c) It was not a major power at first, but
over time grew,
(d) eventually supplanting 3 kingdoms
(Heruli in 493, Vandals in 534, Ostrogoths
in 538).
64.
65. 13. Who, or what power is represented by
the little horn?
(e) The ten kingdoms that came out of the
Roman Empire were political kingdoms. But
the Papacy combined religious and political
authority.
(f) The leader of the Papacy is a man whose
title is the Pope.
66. 13. Who, or what power is represented by
the little horn?
(g) The Papacy claims to have the authority
to change divine law. “The Pope is of so
great authority and power, that he is able to
modify, declare, or interpret even divine
Laws.” (emphasis supplied)
(Source: Lucius Ferraris, Prompta
Bibliotheca “Papa,” article 2).
67. 3. Who, or what power is represented by
e little horn?
(h) The saints would be persecuted for time,
times, and the dividing of times. In a parallel
prophecy, Revelation 12:6 and 13:5 shows this
period to be 42 months, or 1260 days, or
literal years (a prophetic day is a literal year;
see Ezekiel 4:6). From 538 AD, when the last
of the three horns were “plucked up,” to
1798 AD, when the Pope was arrested and
exiled by French general Berthier, the Papacy
persecuted and killed thousands of Christians
who would not submit to its authority.

3 ½ years
Time, Times, and half a time
3 ½ prophetic years

75.
76. 13. Who, or what power is represented by
he little horn?
)Pompous, or blasphemous words would be:
1) Man claiming to forgive sins; see Mark 2:7
2) Man taking the place of God; see John 10:33.
he Papacy does both: “The priest holds the place of
he Saviour himself, when, by saying ‘Ego te absolvo,’
e absolves from sin.” (Duties and Dignities of the
riest, by Liguori, pg. 27) “All names which in
cripture are applied to Christ, by virtue of which it is
stablished that he is over the church, all the same
ames are applied to the Pope.” (On the Authority of
ouncils, book 2, chapter 17, 1619 edition)
We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.”
The Great Encyclical Letters of Leo XIII, page 304)
77. 14. What law and time did the little horn
attempt to change?
God’s Ten Commandment Law
78. a. God’s Ten Commandment law.
The Roman church “modified” the law by
eliminating the second commandment and
splitting the tenth commandment in order to
still have ten. The fourth commandment is
moved up to third, and the reference to
Sabbath being the seventh day is removed.
(See “the Convert’s Catechism of Catholic
Doctrine,” Pg. 37, 38; 1946 edition)
110. On the first day of the week let each one of
you lay something aside, storing up as he
may prosper, that there be no collections
when I come.
1 Corinthians 16:2
111. Now on the first day of the week, when the
disciples came together to break bread,
Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to
them and continued his message to midnight.
Acts 20:7
So continuing daily with one accord in the
temple, and breaking bread from house to
house, they ate their food with gladness and
simplicity of heart.
Acts 2:46

The Sabbath was established hundreds of years before the Jews. It was made for all mankind. It was first given and observed in the Garden of Eden.
The Gentiles observed it throughout the New Testament and beyond.
It will be observed in the New Earth. As God’s chosen people, the Jews were responsible for preserving God’s truth and presenting it to the world.
Sabbath is a gift from God to man. But just as some people today return or exchange gifts for something else they like more, some Christians have exchanged the Sabbath God gave them for one of their own choosing.

He simply said that He would “write them on their hearts.” (click to dissolve in the verse) “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.” Hebrews 8:10 God’s law would no longer be obeyed externally, but would become an integral part of the life of His children.

I then tell the people I am going to take one of these ladies home with me tonight. Each one is a nice lady, so does it matter which one I take home, as long as I only take one? Of course it matters. One of these ladies is special to me – I have a relationship with her that I do not have with any of the others.
So it is with God’s Sabbath. It is a special day created for us to be with God. Does it really matter which day I keep, as long as I keep one? It matters to God, and it should matter to us as well.
God made one day special. He made one day holy, different from the rest.
He invites us to meet Him on His special day each week. (Invite the people to attend church with you on the next Sabbath. Use a Sabbath appeal card)
