Read the book of Galatians. It was written to all the law keeping sabbatarians to correct their error.

Read 2 Corinthians 3 where Paul calls the ten commands the ministry of death,the letter that kills, the ministry of condemnation, that he contrasts with the new covenant law of the spirit, which gives life, not death.

Read Galatians 4:21-31 where he tells everyone who desires to be under the law, that the covenant given on mount Sinai is BONDAGE.

You do know what was given on mount Sinai includes the ten commands, right?
A pleasing fable indeed, well-suited to please the carnal, sin-loving heart. What all can we get away with and still squeeze through the pearly gates?

Nowhere in the Bible are the ten commandments called a "ministry" of anything. 2Corinthians 3 was never interpreted the way it is today before the mid 20th century. Sin is a flourishing part of pop culture. Always has been. Just getting more bold as time passes.

LIE. Not even the word 'sabbath' occurs. The Commandment 'Thou shalt not LIE' though stands written ALL OVER for the Christian eye! You ought to be ashamed of yourself. The book of Galatians was written for all Law abiding CHRISTIANS, not Law mocking hypocrites -- for sooth, for Law mocking hypocrites indeed.

All sin is against God the Spirit, but sinning against Scripture the Holy Spirit breathed, is (the) Unforgiveable Sin.
Hello @Gerhard Ebersoehn,

It is blaspheme against the
True.
So you got what you wanted : <<he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it>> : nothing in the end; <<he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it>> has always been an addition and of the VERY NATURE of it nothing than an addition.

But let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind, every tongue shall confess to God the WRITTEN fact, "He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord." "For thus DID God concerning the Seventh Day SPEAK", "ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES".

By referring to Romans 14, what have you gained to the benefit of the Sun's Day? In what to the detriment of the Sabbath OF THE LORD have you been successful? You only devised "clever ideas" in justification of yourself making feeble and IRRELEVANT excuses for your hatred and despiction of the Day that is the Rest-Day of the Almighty.
'One man esteemeth one day above another:
another esteemeth every day alike.
Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.'

(Rom 14:5)

Hello @Gerhard Ebersoehn,

With respect, there was no wicked intent in my reference to Romans 14: neither is there hatred of the Sabbath day. I believe what God word says concerning the seventh day as part of the covenant made between God and the children of Israel, with Moses as it's mediator.

Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris

So this is what <Charity> reckons the Sabbath Day of the LORD GOD is for!
to lure Christians into bondage as are those <Sabbath-keepers>,
those who use the Sabbath Day - the Seventh Day -
as an occasion to the flesh, not liberty;
who use it to subvert and destroy 'true Christian' love and service;
because the Sabbath Day remembered or honoured means
that you hate and dishonour Christians who forget it,
biting and devouring and consuming them
who don't worship on the day you do
and do not "regard the day" the Sabbath Day you do!
Hello @GerhardEbersoehn,

If you are persuaded in your own mind regarding the keeping of the day, then it is before God that you keep it, and I do not judge you or anyone else for doing so.

Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris

Intent is one thing, impression another; and intent maintained, yet another.

Get serious - there’s no misinterpretation at all - it blatantly says that the ministry of death was CARVED IN LETTERS ON STONE and mentions MOSES coming down from the mountain with his face glowing!

That’s unequivocally talking about the Ten Commandments.

2Co 3:6 who has made us sufficient to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

2Co 3:7 Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at Moses' face because of its glory, which was being brought to an end,

2Co 3:8 will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory?

There’s no escaping the facts.

What I said is absolutely accurate.

How many posts of mine have you read, and you still think <<If you are persuaded in your own mind regarding the keeping of the day>>. With respect, (my) persuasion regarding the Sabbath OF THE LORD GOD comes not from one's <own mind>, nor is it about anyone's <keeping of the day> except the Lord's own regard and keeping of "the Lord's Day" even "the day The Seventh Day Sabbath Day OF THE LORD GOD". Please see the capital letters!

With regard to the LORD'S Sabbath you live off your emotions concerning it instead of off The Word of God the Scriptures in regard to JESUS who "gave them - the People of God - IN ALL AGES - Rest" -- Himself, his own Life and Resusrrection wherein withall "you are CO-RAISED TOGETHER WITH CHRIST in the Resurrection OF HIM", "on the day that is after the Preparation...the third day He has spoken of...in the FULLNESS (of fulfilment) OF THE SABBATH in the daylight inclining towards the First Day of the week."

Hello @GerhardEbersoehn,

Please try to refrain from making personal comments, for they are ill founded.

Thank you

Correct. Just not <<ministry>> but "ministration"; and not blatantly OMITTING "was glorious".
It wasn't Moses who spoke or wrote the Ten Commandments, it was God by the Son. Don't you forget it Mr. Holier than thou KnowAll.

First the SPIRIT spoke from the mountain the Eternal New Covenant of Grace of the Eternal Almighty God; after three days the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY WROTE and SENT from the mountain his servant Moses with His, Written, WORD to God's People, "WHICH WAS GLORIOUS".
With what success crowned Jesus Christ his Gospel? With His Great Commisssion to his apostles, "WHICH WAS GLORIOUS".

"The ministration of death/sacrifices/Moses" pertaining Jesus' Suffering and Death, "was glorious", "how much the more would not the Ministration of the Spirit/Gospel/apostles" pertaining Jesus' Resurrection and Life, "be glorious as well"?

Good. But have you said enough, or everything? Which is the difficulty for all of us. We are prone to exclude the one or the other instead of include it all.

'One man esteemeth one day above another:
another esteemeth every day alike.
Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.'

(Rom 14:5)

Makes me consider: Psalm 139:8-12 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. [9] If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; [10] Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. [11] If I say, Surely the darkness shall overwhelm me; even the night shall be light about me. [12] Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

‘Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.' Romans 14:14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

Romans 8:33-39 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. [34] Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. [35] Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? [36] As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. [37] Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. [38] For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, [39] Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

<<That’s unequivocally talking about the Ten Commandments>> on the ONE AND SAME DIVINE EVENT that God WROTE the Ten Commandments with the Finger of God His Holy Spirit, AND, SPOKE the Ten Words BY HIS WORD THE SON.

You separate and break apart that which God had joined together.

There is the inherent UNITY of the New Covenant, that the letter must kill and the Spirit must heal and give life. The Gospel for 2000 years by now!
"Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at Moses' face because of its glory (which was being brought to an end), will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory?"

The ministry of the Spirit three days before had more glory than the ministry of death carved in letters on stone carried down from the mountain by Moses. Israel could not endure or withstand God's Speaking on the mountain in the Power of the Holy Spirit. But they played their idolatry games while Moses approached them bringing down the Ten Letters to them.
The ministry of the Spirit without respect to person, also in respect to God, to the Glory of God was glorious with greater Glory than the Letter's Glory was to kill.

ONE OCCASION, not two millennia apart. God ever had one, the NEW Covenant of his Grace, or his only Covenant God for UNFALLEN SINLESS GUILTLESS man must have sworn.
