"Rejoice in the Lord always;
And again I say rejoice ".
Phil 4.4
8. the principles of respect for Saturday
The seventh day of the week brings into the
House each religious Jew peace and harmony,
that change worries and tension of the six
working days: is the excitement and rush;
replace them comes "Shabbat"-the
day of peace. The Jews called Saturday the Queen, waiting for her,
as the bride, and preparing for the meeting.
Everything should be clean, light and festive to come do Saturday and housing,
and clothing, body and heart. For Jews, Saturday-blessed
Island in an ocean of time.
Seventh-day Adventists share this ancient
concept on Saturday. The fourth commandment is located in the very heart of the
law and testifies that God loves us, appreciates and respects, as a person. He
chose a special place to meet with him, but he
incomparably better-consecrated for this
particular part of the time. It encourages participants

close, trustful communication that day.
Saturday-not only the Memorial of creation
and redemption, a sign of peace and fidelity day
communion with God, which does not leave us
and with each other. It is also a sign of kinship-style: we have one father,
and we are members of one family, brothers and sisters.
All the above enables us to understand how
you want to celebrate this day.
8.1. the ordinary courts; a sign of peace and
communication day
"If you're holding your leg for the sake
of thy whims of Saturday ... and on-
her honour that you will not engage in routine
your deeds. then you have
joy in the Lord. " (Is 58.13-14). On
Saturday you need to for the sake of God leave all cases
that may not do on this day. It is the
day-to-day work to improve benefit-
condition, au pairs or for money. It's also
all operation with money (many Christians devote themselves to God for just one
hour, attending Church on Sundays, and
the remainder of the day spend shopping).
It's not only work, but also all kinds of enjoyments - horseback rides, entertainment programs,
etc. All this does not-

communication from call and
before sunset (Lev. 23.32). "I will give
you rest," said Christ (Matthew 11.28). Without a co-
Saturday monitoring to achieve this peace is
impossible. "For there is nowhere mentioned on the seventh day: and the
seventh day God rested from all his work. Therefore, for the people of God are

and he calmed down from his work as

fell into a disobedient (Heb 4.4, 9-10).
"Just as the Lord had ceased business creation, and rested on Saturday and
blessed this day and people should leave the disposable-afternoon and devote
the sacred hours of healthy rest. (E. White, the Desire of ages ", chapter
21). For the Affairs of God anticipated the day cooking-(Ex 16.23).
8.2. Welcome
You need and whether you can on Saturday to
do good deeds?
There is in law the term "omission".
Jesus once said: "whether on Saturday welcome to do, or to do evil? Soul
rescue or ruin? " (Mark 3.4).
It is often the case that people need our
immediate assistance. For example, he
may die if not take him to the hospital and
did not make the operation or a blood transfusion. In this case, we put off the
case for Saturday.
Jesus himself healed on Saturday those in
need. In the Gospels recorded on seven
such healings:
1. Luca 6.6-11-healing the dry hand man
2. Luke 13.10-17-healing the curved women
3. Luke 14.1-6-healing the sick water disease
4. Luca 4.31-37-healing of a possessed person
unclean spirit
5. Luke 4.38-39-healing the mother-in-law of
Simon from the fever
6. John 5.5-10-healing the paralyzed in
Vifezda
7. John 9.1-14-healing the blind man
He spoke of the Pharisees, which accused him
of violating the Sabbath: "If you
know what it means: "I want Mercy and
not sacrifice. ' Which of you, having a sheep if it
Saturday will fall into the pit, takes it and
lift it out? How many people more than sheep! So, can a Saturday doing good
"(MT 12.7, 11-12). Jesus did not just healed physical economic weakness, but also of the human
soul.
economic weakness, but also of the human
soul.
"Assistance to the afflicted, comforted
crying is an act of love, celebrating God's
Holy day (e. White, "Redemption",
no. 3, p. 46). "God will not take innocent who on Saturday refused to
assist the needy. God does not want Them
created by beings suffered from pain, while
this pain can be eased in the Saturday ... Saturday should not be a day of idle
inactivity "(e. White, the Desire of ages", p. Orig. 207).
8.3. the "Saturday"; Jesus and the
Sabbath doctrine/sec
Satan is the enemy of God's law-knew that it
would be difficult to fight against such Commandments like "thou shalt not
kill" and "not?": all who read them, understand that in any case
the killing and stealing is evil. The same can be said about seven other
commandments. On-
This he sent all his hatred upon precept on
Saturday. He decided that the best act-GSS cause people have an aversion to the
Jewish Sabbath is through their agents, tax
live on her many unbiblical restrictions and
prohibitions.
Basic Sabbath prohibitions contained in the
"Mishneh"-Jewish traditions: they prohibit-
attend on Saturday to transfer items from
place to place, Kindle and extinguish fire, write or erase the 2 letters, pluck
and rub the hands to the ears (see Mark 2.23-24 is considered-
What a harvest and shared threshing work) and
spit on the grass (it is watering). There are other bans, for a total of more
than fifty ("treatise on Saturday (Sabbath Traktat VII, 2, tralsl.
but Eduard Lohse, Umwelt des Neuer
Testaments. Stottingen, 1971, p. 128)). All of these not-Jewish baby should
learn to twelve years. And Satan has reached its
purpose: the Jew from childhood hated this
day.
The Essene sect same went even further: they
were banned on Saturday to take birth in cattle,
pull out the animal and even human, falling
into a pit, open a blocked blood vessel,
send to the mercenary and a Gentile, take
your hands and wear a baby ("Damascus
document (Dam. 14 X-XII, 18, placed in j.
Leipoldt, w. Grundmann. Umwelt des Christen-
tums II, Berlin , 1970)). Josephus wrote about the
Essene: "they are stricter than other Jews avoid Ghali work on Saturday
and therefore ... a day of rest has not even been any result from the
vessel-refer to the site or to fulfill his need "(" Jewish war
", 11, 8.9).
Jesus has always condemned such madness. He
and his father made Saturday for a human (not only to the Jews), not the person
for Saturday (mark 2.27). This expression take walks to the Talmud, which
contradicts himself.
"If the Jewish interpretation of the law
is true, then the wrong Jehovah, which is creating the heavens and the Earth
and the life on it constantly takes care of its maintenance. Whether the Lord-
stick the sun rise on Saturday? ... Whether
the whole universe stand still in this holy day? ... In this case, the people
would have the fruits of the Earth and all the blessings that
allow you to enjoy life. In nature,
everything must run its course. If God is in the
momentarily forgot about the Earth, mankind
would have perished "(e. White, the Desire of ages", chapter 21).
THE LORD JESUS CONDEMNED PERVERSION OF THE
TEACHINGS ON SATURDAY, BUT IT IS
NOT GIVES US AN EXCUSE TO ABANDON ALTOGETHER
THE CELEBRATION SATURDAY
OR CARRY IT ON SUNDAY.
8.4. the letter and the spirit of the
commandments
In conclusion: not enough know what to and
what not to do on Saturday. Not all of it. Formal compliance with Saturday you
as an unpleasant duty does not save and unhelpful. The Consecration
occurs only when the Holy day a man comes to
God with an open heart and sincerely expressed their gratitude to the creator
and the joy of communicating with him
(Am-7, Rome ,
8.4 7.6): "serve the Lord with the mouth was filled with laughter; go
before the face of His exclamation!
This day the Lord has made: let us be glad
and rejoice in it! " (Ps 99.2, 117.24)
No. 137
As sweet a day sacred to us,
And as encouraging the heart,
When we arrive in God's House
And a song of praise we sing.
Lord of the hearts we enlightened
And entered into rest, blessed.
Sing all praises to the creator-
Heavenly Father.
There is nothing sweeter
How to praise his God,
The Holy day sing to him a Psalm,
Having come to the House of God.
V.T.
